Posting:

* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.
* If you have wiki rights, add your player(s) and team(s) there as well!

Nice work on your wave of players. Racking up scout points while avoiding hot spots and the usual blue abilities is not easy.

Thank you. for early scout points i usually use the coupon and sell the rookie charm or whatever its called, then i have enough to buy a prince's necklace and 10/11 candy which leaves me with exactly 1 dollar.

Isn't the Price Necklace only useful from the offseason going forward, to coax the scout to show up for an extra showcase practice or two? Or does it make the scout more likely to show up at regular practices? I never have figured that out.

I'm not sure myself. The first couple of success ones I ever did I didn't use it but never had problems passing. I remember reading a guide that recommended to buy the necklace. I'll try a dummy run without the necklace a few times to see if it affects the scout.

I thought it gave you more coach and scout eval points.

"Easier to impress scouts" is how the the Prince Necklace is described. I originally thought it helped with practice, but that's what Fancy Fragrance is for - doubling the scout points you receive during practice. Maybe he just shows up more frequently.

I thought the scout always just showed up when you practiced twice in one week. I never noticed a difference with the necklace. Maybe it only helps in games?

Prince's necklace increases the number of scout points you get from practices and games. How much it increases it, however, is up for debate.

So, it's exactly the same as Fragrance, minus price and permanence.

Yeah. I wonder, do the effects compound if you use both?
