TSB – I’ve been under your trance for months, but you’ve never loved me back. App crashes and ghost pitches during WoH, videos randomly pausing and force-closing, crashes when upgrading players, video boosts never working – all of it annoying, frustrating, maddening, or worse. But at its core, an amazing game – the chase for better players, simple game play, and best of all – baseball and a connection to real life performance.
On Saturday I upgraded from an old iPhone 6 Plus to a new iPhone XR and it changed my TSB world. No crashes, no lag, all the videos I can handle – and the realization that all my negative feelings were actually due to my hardware – not TSB…me…it’s always been me.
Up until Sunday night, I’d been routinely beating classic WoH on Mondays and Wednesdays but never at a cost of less than 2,000 gold. TSB held me back with all of its “bugs”. On Monday night I beat WoH while using only 160 gold (80 gold boosts on 5.9 and 5.10)! I thought to myself - that was relatively easy (maybe a dozen restarts), that was incredibly fun, I must have gotten lucky. I upgraded Wolters to G9 and thought, let’s see how the other half lives, let’s try to “cycle”. I again raced through all stages with only one gold restart at 5.10! I always knew that cycling would produce incredible returns, but holy smokes, its friggin’ awesome!
To all you haters out there – it’s not TSB or Glu…it’s you…it’s always been you. I love you TSB! XOXO

This game is not perfect. And that's okay. No game is perfect. But the game is at a point where it's beginning to get repetitive. For most players who are gold and below, we should stock resources for a move up. This means, in all honesty, to just sit around on all days that aren't Monday and Wednesday, and watch videos for gold. The other aspects of the game - except for CVC - are pointless. And for players who are diamond, I'm sure it must be nice to grind out a thousand games for the hell of it and the nice rewards, but most players aren't at that point yet. I feel as if this game focuses around the 12 hours on Monday and Wednesday.
So although the game has its epic moments, such as pulling a 1.5% pull, or beating 6.9 on WOH, it seems to be deeply flawed. I genuinely hope this is fixed over the next update.
On a different note has anybody noticed that you can no longer tell who hit that "disagree" link on the posts anymore? #transparencygate
I now have 69. That’s not a coincidence that I have somehow received 60% of my dislikes in the last 3 days when I’ve been on here for over 1050 days
maybe I should just become a lurker. You know, like all those people who only ever take from the forums and never give back to the community.
Also, @Bigpredfan, 69? I know you like that number, but you might want to refresh your profile.
