Forum rules


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!

Ok - thanks for explaining. I am all set - I enjoyed making 1 maxed-out character, but after that it gets kind of old. I'll stick with my lower-lever players to keep the sort of balance I want.

Good luck.

I've added Tylar Salter to the wiki (I hope I was supposed to do that). He's one of my new players.

probably something in-between. For instance, my players have many abilities and good stats; however, they do have some weaknesses here and there. So if you could make a guy with 105 top speed, 200 stamina, and good (4-6) breaking balls, that would be great!

I could do that after I am done with a 2B dude. Lefty or Righty?

meh, sorry, his breaking balls are a little bit too high and he has a few too many abilities. :|
Apple4960 should still be the undisputable ace, and Calloway would make a good flamethrowing number two man.

Hawaii Islanders Scouting Report
Jason Calloway (P)
Calloway used to have the fastest fastball on his high school team. He was 'poised' to be a Major Leaguer. However, he let his fastball go, and now is only a little above average. There are a few players on the team better than him, among them Terminator and David Wrong. However, he is merely in his mid-20's, and hopes to regain his status as a flamethrowing pitcher. Until that time, scouts consider him a flash in the pan. He would like to prove them wrong.
