I haven't even opened the app since last Thursday. I used to check this site multiple times per day, and now I skim it once every other day or so just to see if there has been any report of the CD timer being changed/removed (though I know it won't). That change single-handedly killed my desire to play this game, and once…

Agreed @dkarski87 I know I, for one, have completely stopped spending money on this app due explicitly to the ridiculous handling of the CD timer. While I'm just one guy, that's still a fair amount of money lost (though I'm not proud to admit it).
-
Also, this is exactly the reason why people worry too much about "saving up resources" to jump tiers. You can't and shouldn't try to level all of your current players when you jump. You only level enough players to help you continue to beat WOH and regularly win tourneys/BGs at the next level, because then you will cap new…
-
If it were the perfect WOH team, it wouldn't be silver. Just my opinion.
-
It took me several days to get them spent, but it only went that quickly because @retirepujols talked some people into helping me level the club far enough to let me spent loyalty points at significant levels.
-
Always fun to see a thread I started long ago about an absolutely stupid mistake I made unexpectedly resurface months later. Good times.
-
I try to hit 1-2M per round, which I generally get with one ticket using video boosts. That pretty much permanently ensures that my next matchup will be a club that can only max out in the 600-800K range. I guess that keeps me away from the true sandbaggers and firmly in the range of clubs who are just okay at CVC and…
-
I'm just hoping that whatever money they gain from selling EVO and blue cash at $2.99 a pop is more than offset by the discontinued spending from me and others like me.

If you don’t have a large enough gap between your batter’s OVR and the pitcher’s OVR, that’s true. At silver, that’s true a lot. It’s true much less often at gold, and rarely true and platinum and then diamond. It’s all about percentages, and at silver, they aren’t in your favor. That’s why the RNG screws you often, and…
-
It's not about "double" or "triple" the ratings. It's about the size of the gap between the ratings. A 200 OVR bat is technically "double" a 100 OVR pitcher, but that isn't as big of a gap as a 400 OVR bat vs. a 250 OVR pitcher. The latter doesn't reach "double" status, but it's still clearly a better disparity in ratings…
-
This is the second week in a row that I haven't bothered to play WOH, which used to be my favorite thing about this app. There's just no point spending a ridiculous amount of time trying to cycle cap pretty much the exact same player they have been giving out for weeks on end now. And the best/worst part: I now realize…
-
I guess that's it. I yield Glu. You win. You have successfully driven away any remaining interest I have in this app. You stopped making useful end-game players available, whether by reward or even in the boxes. You slow-rolled ATGs long after they should have been released, and then you went and gave them useless skills…
-
So a righty. Of course.
-
A lefty OF would be great, preferably with two good skills. But I'm willing to bet the farm that whoever he is, *at least* one of his skills will be blowout or on base (and perhaps both).
-
I've already stopped spending due to the CD timer. Partly because it's ridiculous to institute such a monumental change this late in the game, but mostly because it's a transparent money grab that is instead being pitched as something else entirely. When you add that on top of weeks and weeks of ridiculous boxes, and an…
-
If the Curveball box is indeed one of the weekend boxes, I can only hope that the other one is significantly better.
-
At a minimum, it will be something like the reward player being a max 420 righty DH with a two out skill and a hot hitter skill.
-
I can't speak for everyone else in here, but I'd prefer you didn't send gifts. That just gives Glu more revenue, and with the addition of the club cool down timer, I'm very much hoping people stop spending in protest. I know I have stopped spending myself.
-
I'm sure there will be a catch when it comes to WOH. I have no doubt about that whatsoever.
-
I just think it's hilarious how transparent Glu's motives are here. On one hand, @blueleopard tells us that the cool down timer is meant to stop a few bad apples who allegedly join a club, commit unnamed bad acts to get the club banned (????), and then leave the club before the punishment is handed down. And then on the…
-
@dustyhunks The fact that they are now highlighting cheap boxes built around EVO tells me all I need to know about why the cool down timer was really instituted ... and why it is never going away no matter how much we all complain and/or stop spending.
-
If CVC sniping is the issue, make CVC like club events in that you have to be in the club when the round starts if you want to qualify for any rewards. But we all know that isn't really what's driving this change,
-
But he looks so good on my inactive roster next my other Blyleven, Nolan Ryan, Hershiser, Reuss, etc.
-
Finally decided to break down and open the Curveball box:
-
And certainly don’t send out a push notification to all your users highlighting a “supercharged” boost that doesn’t actually exist.
-
Or worse: “Wow! Logins were WAY up this weekend. They must be perfectly fine with the 12-hour cool down timer!”
-
It doesn’t work with manual play either. I manually played an inning to see if the boost wasn’t on, and it wasn’t. Then I started a new game, used the video boost to see if that somehow triggered the “supercharged” live boost, manually played the first inning and saw it didn’t.
-
I don’t care what the box theme is. I just want it to have a max 520 lefty (or switch hitter) with 2 skills from the following list: vs. RHP, Late, WOH. Is that honestly too much to ask?
-
Honest question: is it possible that they don’t realize that “supercharging” live boost is utterly useless when there isn’t any live boost in the first place?
-
Now if they’ll just accidentally gift us the other weekend box so we could get a sneak peak at that too, that wouldn’t be great.
