Can you really aquire Alvin's or Patrick's batting form? If so, how? Do I need to just keep reloading when Peter asks me if I need help on my swing? Is there a certain date?

No date as far as I can tell. You will just have to reload for the event and hope it works.

No certain date, but I've only seen that RE during the first year. That doesn't necessarily mean it can't show up later; this is just my experience with it.

I once picked it up in the 2nd year, when I did 0 practicing the first year (was testing dating tactics). It may only occur when you join the team?... then again, it might just be random... :twisted:

Do you need a "Challenge" card or will a "yes" work also?

Do you have to be at a certain bookworm level or anything like that?

I believe anything except "No" will work, but every card has a chance of failing or succeeding. Your stance changes when you fail. Maybe a different stance is tied to each card? It was posted that you can get Patrick's stance by failing with a "Yes" card.

If you play a marvin card your stance will not change. Yes and challenge are the ones you want to use.

Thank you. I look forward to many more hours of reloading.

Almost everytime I've used a YES card I have had success in changing my stance. Challenge cards on the other hand have not given me success in numerous tries. In my own personal experience I'd use a YES card. My Mike Lowell character has Patrick's stance and it is really cool.

What are the possible alternate stances?

I know of Alvin, Patrick, and Mars. Anything else?

I got someone's stance yesterday but didn't want it, I think it was Peter but I have to check because that was the first time in a while I played success mode so I'm not sure who is who anymore.

I never noticed that Peter had a distinct stance. Rex and Brad have interesting stances, though.

You must have to be a fielder or have a unique stance or something because when I was making fielders I remember seeing this scene numerous times. But right now I am making pitchers and I have never gotten to this part.(After many many reloads)

Maybe you can get Alvin's pitching stance?

Once you change your stance do you have to wait until you have a game or scout practice to see it or will it say something like "learned Patrick's stance"??

I don't want to keep reloading to get it and then not even know if I got the right one.

I pretty much save/reload every time possible.
I don't want to save a stance I don't want.
