@hikes83_psn said in How many "RS" games do you play each day?:

I'm at 38 TB. Just need one double. I'm down 5-3, but I don't care about the win. I yell "DON'T TOUCH IT, I'LL GET IT IN 5 MINUTES". She says "WHAT???"... I yell again "DON'T TOUCH IT!!"

Two minutes later, I get my double. I look up, and there's my wife holding a battery in her hand. She said "Really? This stupid game is more important?". I said "YES". She said "But you lost. Why are you so happy?" I said "Because I completed a mission for 10 points". She stared back blankly. I said, "I told you not to touch it."

But, I know all of my friends on the forum are 100% with me. Right? I mean... you get it...

P.S. I typically try to get 2 wins per day so that I can get the WS reward. I did actually mean to answer the OP question.

I totally get you. But now, she’s definitely not gonna touch it for a while.

That’s the million dollar question.

That's the two million stub question.

For you, zero stub question - I know you have all the cards.

@whitejw98_psn said in FFS, quit matching me against people over 1,000 miles away:

The game doesn't tell you the location of the person you're playing, so how would you even know if you're getting matched up against people 1,000 miles away? Your opponent could just as easily be someone minutes away with a lousy internet connection.

He probably bases it on the name of the city his opponent is using in their team name which tells you nothing as I’ve used Baltimore, San Diego, Initech, and British Columbia while living in Pennsylvania.

to Initech

To me I read that as 2 easy wins and call it a day

I don’t give a [censored] about the event rewards. As I stated, I want to try new cards and get PXP. Denied by childish behavior.

I get that but then playing events was the wrong place to do PxP which base on you OP you already knew this so I'm not sure what you want anyone to say beside you got what you expect???

I expect SDS to address this issue. It’s been a problem for years now. A timeout is easy enough.

I’m not asking a lot here.

It’s even worse with BR, where missions really matter. Yesterday on my first run of this program, I had someone try to dashboard a Joe Carter home run (thankfully they were too late) and then in back to back games had dashboards cost me the 40 total base mission (which luckily I got on my last game of that run).

I was playing BR yesterday and ran into a guy who was beating me pretty handedly, but he had popped up with Thome in his first at-bat. I was thinking about quitting out to redraft when I saw Thome was on deck again, so I walked the pitcher, put in my worse reliever, and gave Thome a meatball. He still hit a weak fly ball to left, but I ran away from the ball until he rounded the bases. He didn't ask for help or anything, but I figured it would be nice to put some positivity out there. There are plenty of tool boxes playing online, but it's not all bad.

Honestly, if that was me on the other end, I’d pause, send you a thank you message, and give you the win, even if I didn’t need the homer.

@oachs83_psn said in Just frustrated:

Eventually got the three wins, staying up later than normal with tired eyes and shorter patience is definitely not the route to go with this game.

Yeah BR is IMO 10x worse than any online mode. It’s insulting to ones intelligence how blatant the comebacks are. I played a total of 3 BR games all year and one being yesterday. It’s just amazing how you can make a guy look absolutely foolish with a silver rated pitcher and your opponent looks like he just bought the game. The second you go up three or four runs you are now throttled down on offense and defense and boom your opponent is a perfect timing hitting god, until it’s tied of course then they magically can’t hit anymore.

I played my fair share of BR in years past and it’s always been that way and I would much rather stay away from that mode for my insanity sake.

It is rather sad people can't see the DDA kicking in. It is so blatantly obvious. Just goes to show you how many sheep there are in the world. Either that or just not very smart.

So you continuously play a game that infuriates you with DDA built in, yet everyone else is “sheep” or stupid. Got it.

@cd_0506_psn said in Frank Thomas user tips?:

Im hitting 300+ with most hitters and some 350 or 400 but with Big Hurt… Small sample but only .111 in 23 AB. Any tips of maybe why? I really like Frank Thomas as a player but cant seem to hit with him.

I feel you. I’m a singles machine with him.

@ministro787_psn said in 2023 ASG:

To be held in Seattle. Congrats to you folks in the Pacific NW. Had the chance to visit that stadium in 2017 and it was a great experience.

I also recommend anyone visiting there to challenge their inner "fear factor" and try the chilly toasted grasshoppers.

I had dinner up at the top of the Space Needle - beautiful city. Also, ate tons of “chapulines” (chocolate-covered grasshoppers) in Oaxaca, Mexico. I’ll have to try these chili toasted ones you speak of!

People of the lowest intelligence level are most prone to call others “stupid” or “idiots.” I never made the mistake myself, but it’s sad that people need to kick others when they’re down to attempt to feel superior.

@bodamescapeplan said in Arietta isn’t even good.:

Is Verlander really that good? I gotta find a way to get that card.

Verlander is incredible, i normally don't like pitching with his cards and i love pitching with this version. If you can get it you absolutely should.

Haha.. remember last year? He was pure BP.

@bob_loblaw1984 said in Replace Chipper?:

I’m sure this is an unpopular opinion, but is anyone else considering this? I’ve done well with him and have at P5, but those vs. RHP attributes don’t look as good this late in the cycle. Brett, Boggs, Miggy, Vlad all look tempting. Might try platooning with Brett for a while.

Yup, definitely replaceable now with options like Vlad Jr, Honus, Minnie, and others.

Minnie? Not sure that dude is worth replacing Chipper for. We are talking Minnie Minoso right?

Yeah, maybe not the best replacement. I just have a soft spot for Minnie.

…is what I did and it renewed my appreciation for this game. It’s not so much about the ability to earn cards or the gameplay, it’s the sleekness of the menus and the ease of navigating around the game - it should not be taken for granted.

@raesONE_PSN
I totally get it, but hope you’ll stick around!

How about you count the mission and points again?

Great point, but that's like asking me to Google it, when you could've just told me
