Merge

All this should belong with the Story Lines page. Despite them not being "Major", I don't think we really need a separate page for them. --MaxDSterling 14:33, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Yes, I noticed that page after filling in this one. This was the one linked from Success_Mode#Potential_Storylines as a "A full list of potential storylines". I wouldn't be against merging but I think there are merits to a more strategy-based layout. From a character-creation standpoint these story lines serve very different functions: 1) Girlfriends: Requires dating and affection levels to progress and gives you a special ability after completion, 2) Teammates: Progresses mostly through random events, will upgrade training and boost teammate's abilities, 3) Dad: For customizing a pitch.--Odawali 23:16, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Robin

The practice that gets upgraded varies depending on the playthrough; in my most recent one I only get Breakingball training upgrades no matter how many times I reload. Possibly tied in with whether you get Rex or Brad. Brad was on my team the time I got the Weight training upgrade.--Odawali 23:23, 18 March 2008 (CDT)

Marvin

I suspect Marvin's mini-arc progresses either by his UFO sightings or constantly being late for practice.--Odawali 12:31, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Rex

Rex's is something about going over the rainbow but I can't recall the specific events. Completion will upgrade Fielding practice.--Odawali 12:31, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Rex will go on about rainbows and eventually he will play his band at the baseball diamond but hardly anyone will show up. He will quit his band and play baseball 100%, that's what gives you upgraded fielding. --DarkShade 16:57, 23 February 2008 (CST)
DarkShade is correct, the first event I believe is Rex skipping groundskeeping duties to go and play with his band. Toby gives him a tongue lashing before testing his skills with a fielding practice ultimatum, if Rex catches all his hits he can leave the field. Rex does so easily and leaves for the day. The next event involves you finding out Rex is playing a gig on the diamond that night, and coincidentally Becky and Coach give you tickets. You and Marvin go to the show and barely anyone is there. The next day you come to practice early and Rex has done all the groundskeeping. He informs you that he's seen the rainbow, and he can only "cross the rainbow"(I believe is what he says) through baseball. You tell him that you'll cross the rainbow with him and he dedicates himself to baseball. His ending says he's back to playing in the band and he hopes to become the first Rock Star in the majors.--Tgjason 01:23, 7 May 2008 (CDT)

On a side note, it appears to be completely random whether Brad or Rex joins your team. I reloaded the event several times just to see and the results were split almost evenly between them. --Mrsims31 00:58, 4 March 2008 (CST)

Mark

Mark's problem could be the beginning of his mini-arc.--Odawali 12:31, 23 February 2008 (CST)

I got a follow up event after choosing "keep asking", where Mark is apparently steady with a girlfriend--Odawali 20:49, 3 March 2008 (CST)

I don't think the Mirage Knuckler is part of Mark's arc--Odawali 20:49, 3 March 2008 (CST)

It's not, it's more a part of Alvin's arc with whomever is catching.--MaxDSterling 19:05, 4 March 2008 (CST)

Milton

I'm not entirely sure, but it seems you need to date someone in order to trigger his first event.--Odawali 12:31, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Peter

If he had an arc, it has to begin with his investment plan event. I usually pull out after he comes back with my share to get an ability(Clutch 4/Lucky), but investing further may be a requirement for the arc to progress.--Odawali 12:31, 23 February 2008 (CST)

You may also get Unlucky from investing, so it's a risk beyond just money. --DarkShade 16:57, 23 February 2008 (CST)

Has anyone tried investing with him more than once? I've had him come back once after the first investment but I've never tried investing with him again, could be the required event to complete his arc.--Tgjason 01:28, 7 May 2008 (CDT)
