Strat-O-Matic Baseball 365

The paying fan base/customers here can drum up some fantastic ideas. Ideas to correct problems. I'm sure of this.

Some can take the time and work out the kinks to the current autodraft system.
Some can make polls to see which cards they would like added to the ATG set.
I've even had a few moments of clarity along the way. ie. Combining the 2001-2012 cards for a "ATG like" set.

I've voiced my opinion on 3 way tie rules. I feel they basically are unfair.

It's nice to see paying customers think things out to better this game.

However, they are all pipe dreams. Sorry for the the negativity here, but I'm a realist. The greatest ideas simply won't be implemented by Strat. These ideas fall on deaf ears.

Strat has their game plan, and they are sticking to it. If they cared what their customer base wants, they would correct/fix/implement changes. There are ATG polls regarding which players the customers want to see. There are 3 way tie rules that need changing. There are flaws in the bullpen. Flaws in the autodraft. There still isn't a LIVE DRAFT function! Manager ratings? Yeah yeah yeah... working on it. How long ago was the transition to Strat from TSN? I know there are many more things that need addressing and what do we get? A scavenger hunt?

I believe it's the old mom and pop thing again.

Old people running an old style business, with old style loyalty. Instead of getting some young hot shot who knows what their doing to fix everything, let's keep around people who don't know anything (or instead of anything, not enough) about online businesses.

Again, I have my degree in CS. I've done Project management. I would have been fired long ago at a real job for things being like this for over a year. And this is with things way more complicated then what they are running here.

The fact it's been this long... for any changes that people actually want to happen, is a testament to the idiocracy that is SOM today.

Agreed

I don't know anything about the business side of SOM, but it is or was an iconic brand.(TSN was also a huge brand, but is virtually extinct now). The name would seem to have value, perhaps Hal Richman should go on Shark Tank
