Never played the mystery game, prob never will (this game is still a mystery to me - lol)
Just curious - I'm sure htere are quite a number of players that played in the late 80's and early 90s - seems unfair to not have them be fully mysteried. - Why not marry the decades?

In a 200X league, basically you draft a team, mold it during the preseason, and then sit back and see how it plays out. Sure, there is some tweaking but once opening day arrives, the bulk of your ability to shape your team's future is over.
Not so in the mystery card game. Once opening day arrives, things are just getting warmed up as you desperately try to figure out which card each of your players has and who to keep and who to cut.
Also, in the 70s game, some players to cross over into the 60s or 80s for some of their seasons.

85% of players wouldn't know 85% of the players in a 50s-60s game.
85% of statistics are also made up.
Excited about the 90's game.
Would rather see new games than updates to old games.
Would rather see 00's mystery card game than 50s-60s game.

I have to give props to anyone who would know players from the 50's and 60's AND knows how to navigate on the internet. You're definitely not the norm. Congrats! :lol:

What excites me about the 90s is that Fletch Griswold won't be the overall leader in the point standings starting out. Instead of chasing his 9000 wins in the 80s, I can seize the lead in the 90s by playing 7 leagues at once.
My ego will be nourished and replenished! :D :D
