Yeah the scene I'm talking about is in the locker room, you are there with the coach, and you talk about how akward it is without becky there. Then, as you are about to leave, you notice the clipboard, and the coach has you listed as 1b, which is not your position. Then, it asks you what you should do. I've found 'no' to keep your position, but lower your coaches eval and sometimes give a negative ability (can't remember which) and yes will change to 1b.

It usually happens before the third year, like i said, my typical progression has been:

Don't get Bison's Bat,
Spend the 1st year getting money man/study so you can see all albilities of items.
Make the team
Strength training until I get about a B or C power, and a 4 TRAJ
Just before the season starts, the scene usually happens.

Like I said, I always assumed it was because I didn't upgrade ANYTHING but strength before the 2nd season games start. It could be something else that triggers it, but that seems to make the most sense to me.

Oh. The position switch I always had usually happened April/May of the 1st year. Did you make the team the first year to play the first game?

How do your players usually turn out?

Most people do the strength training early, using Annie's Problems and the Mind-Training necklace to boost the bookworm, and just work after resting. The level 4 for moneyman isn't really necessary, though. The possible abilities have already been documented, and, with level 3 bookworm, you can see if there is any potential.

I've gotten the coach's position switch event a couple of times and I think it's random (ie not key), possibly triggered by a low FLD level.

I have a hunch that the uneven brush strokes in the home maintenance job gives you a chance of Consistency 2.

You can get it by playing a Marvin card at the pizza job after you've gotten the delivery job when the boss tells you "get those pizzas delivered while they're still warm" (or something like that).

Ironic that I was just asking about this the other day, but I got good small ball a different way.

I am married to Becky and it is the scene where she asks you if you have any complaints about practice or something. If you challenge you get to select which practice you want out of all the practices. If you choose "yes", your character actually says no, and this is where I learned good small ball.

I have a question about "Lucky". I got it before but can't remember.

Is it when your boss asks you to switch to deliveries or when he says another day another dollar?

The Wiki says just Challenge and successfully get a raise. I would assume this is for the "Another Day, another dollar" thing. I think I got it this way as well.

I usually get "Lucky" from earning money from Peter on the stock exchange and walking away. If you lose and walk away, of course, you'll get "Unlucky"
