Glad I read this this afternoon!! I replied to that e-mail today and got the gift! It pays to read the forums, and thank you to @Amused_79 for starting this thread!!! :-)
Have won 85% of my season games so far in Bronze, 68-12 after first 80. Playoffs I do expect to be more challenging though. Hoping to find a way somehow to get through...
accidentally turned off my phone in overtime against Whitey as I just hit to tie the game, lol. would've maybe been cycle #10, but as it was, maybe the perfect testament to the yearlong struggle (at times anyways). 3x Kruk, 3x Posada, 2x Schmidt, and 1x DeGrom
3x Hoz, 3x Molitor. Glad to have pulled Roberts and J.T. over the weekend, although cost quite a lot of gold. Didn't expect Molitor to be an easy-to-get 45%er so went for Schmidt from fan rewards. Oh well.
Really hope those examples, and corresponding overall values, are just for illustrative purposes. Otherwise, i'm out. Not going to bother with another season of this garbage.
Same thing happened to me when I leveled up from Gold to Platinum a week ago. Luckily CS was pretty understanding and gave me full credit. It wasn't as big of deal to me as I wasn't trying to hit the 20k mark.
Went to platinum over the weekend, so woh was a little different. I knew going in I didn't have the skills high enough on a couple of bats which made things a lot tougher, plus today just seemed to be harder. 2x "more" Trout lol, 2x Turner. Also lost a winnable sequence at 5.10 on a glitch, ouch.
The only ones with almost certainty at this point might be Holiday Trout and Holiday Baez. PXP, which would be hard to come by at first, but both would be so valuable for the long haul. They have been awesome, and both made the cut when going to platinum.
I pulled Babe also from WOH, maybe 2-3 weeks ago. I did level him to Gold 10 (i'm still Gold) as I figured he would be the last ATG that I would pull. He's a stud, and he's fun to mash dingers with, but I find in WOH i'm preferring to use other studs at 5.7-5.10 other than Babe. Also, since Babe, i've pulled Hank, and…
We've seen tons of contradictory statements from GLU regarding what does/doesn't work and/or apply in various game modes (i.e. Skills). Who knows what is or isn't valid, outside of GLU developers and higher ups...
I gambled on two tweets, only because there was a ESPN headline http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/25996773/trevor-bauer-says-arbitration-hearing-cleveland-indians-ended-character-assassination
Not a splashy day for me, that's ok I knew it was coming. I officially hate the degrom, Marichal, John combo more than any other. If they are the final three again, I'm not bothering. 3x Stanton, 1x Bellinger
