Coming early March: Strat-O-Matic 2007

[Valen]

Shouldn't it be close enough to March to start dropping some teasers about the new features? :D

I'd like to make a suggestion for private leagues. I wish each team on our league could carry their players over each time they play. So we start 2007 strat in March and then when we play again in June we all have the same players we had in March. That way you keep building like a real baseball team.

I have on unused credit from 2006, I assume rules are the same in that one credit can be carried forward from 2006 to 2007 ?

Anything for those of us who don't have the ratings spreadsheet or the cards?

Biggest tease was telling us you'd give us teasers... :shock:

It's like your parents telling you can open presents on Christmas Eve, then changing their mind and making you wait until Christmas morning.

why does everyone get so excited that the game is coming out in early march? as in wow, now its coming out in early march and not mid march? u guys do realize that the season ends in october... early november would be impressive... early december would be acceptable.... early january would be a bit lazy... early feb would be really lazy... and early march would be...

you do realize in your ignorant arrogance that the cards from SOM don't even come out until late January.... :roll:

Geekor, I think you just made Cristano's point. :D

I think Cristano is looking for these two scenarios:

BOARD GAME SCENARIO
1. Regular season ends in September
2. 1st week of October: Regular season stats are run through a Strato Computer and auto-creates the cards and prints a million cards of each player.
3. 2nd week of October: Trained monkeys rubberband the players together and stick in rectangular pre-fabbed Strato Boxes.
4. 3rd week of October: Games ready to ship to thousands of Strato fans.

COMPUTER GAME SCENARIO
1. Regular season ends in September
2. 1st week of October: Super Strato Computer (SSC) has regular season stats fed into the system and creates on-line cards for each player. Trained monkeys create ballpark effects.
3. 2nd week of October: Computer nerds input on-line cards and ballpark effects into pre-established game engine. (Can all be done in one week, since SOM computer nerds have no life outside of computers and strato).
4. 3rd week of October: SOM sucks out tens of thousands of dollars from us Strato playing fanatics!
5. 4th week of October: Bernie gets numerous complaints about several topics.

Based on these scenarios, we should be playing strato on-line right around the time the World Series for that season is being played!!

I think it all sounds realistic! 8) 8)

Apparently they weren't trained adequately this year. You would think they could get monkeys to get the ballpark ratings correct.
