We occasionally have users request to have a user created thread pinned at the top of the forum. This is an attempt to consolidate that information in one locked thread.2

Here's the schedule of event cycles:

3:00 AM -- AM Cycle 1
7:00 AM -- AM Cycle 2
11:00 AM -- PM Cycle 1
3:00 PM -- PM Cycle 2
7:00 PM -- PM2 Cycle 1
11:00 PM -- PM2 Cycle 2

All times are Eastern Standard.

Games are simulated during the Cycle 1 time frames. Worlds are simulated in numeric order and the length it takes to process all worlds depends on the # of worlds and what events are taking place in the worlds.

You can monitor the progress of your world via the Commissioner's Note on the World Office page.

INDEED

I think it's ***umed that everyone already either has all those bookmarked or have you blocked. (wait, can you block people on this forum??)

Replies are just a counter like our post counts ... probably reset when he redid the thread.

Seems like this would work better if it linked to the original threads, and then those would be tucked away somewhere else (rather than being individually pinned), but I suspect the "somewhere else" isn't possible with this forum software.

Wait ... they are still linked, so he just unpinned the other threads and pinned this one.

Aha! And then when we ask to have a thread pinned, he'll summarize and link it here. So this one will be cleaned and locked.

S-m-r-t.

Yeah, **** "falls off the edge" - which is why you'll see people bump **** for no reason after 364 or so days.

This game is very complex and the most fun you will have is by joining a league with experienced owners that are willing to either teach you directly or teach you by letting you screw up and learn that way. You will learn by rebuilding a team or taking over a franchise that you can tweak and see effects (and ask questions, even if people make fun of you when you ask them). You will not learn by starting a world, and in fact, your world will only be worthwhile if you get people who are committed and/or very good owners already. These people will not spend $25 per team to join a world started and being run by somebody with no experience. (Unless they are your friends and family, clueless newbies lime me or your 24 other aliases). I can see the appeal of joining a new world (I did that with my second team) where there is no baggage from different styles of management, but join a young world or new world if you want, just don't start your own. You probably already figured out that when you join (or create) a new world, not all teams are created equal. Players are randomly generated and you could get a good team, but you could get a crappy team, and these guys already have good and bad contracts ***igned. This is not better than being able to pick a team in an ongoing league...

Can this get pinned for easy reference?

all my posts are significant

i don't believe you.

the truth is out there....seek and ye shall find
