LOL. I don't know about that, if everyone drinks the same amount we drank the other night, that will give me a fighting chance. I will just stay sober.

I blame Sanjuro.

 

[turnbuckle]

I blame Sanjuro.

He said it was your fault!

 

[Sanjuro]

Yeah, I've been ready to go for a bit now.

I don't give two craps about modified sliders or anything. I just want a set number of people who are reliable and ready to go.

 

[eznark]

I'm in

 

[LJ11]

In with the Reds.

 

[The Frankman]

In with the Mets.

 

[SephriJ]

In with the White Sox.


Sorry to hear about your PS3 Turnbuckle.

 

[KanZolo]

In.

 

[LJ11]

So we have 6, with Dominicanboy/Corran/PistolPete/Duan Cunningham showing interest earlier. PM them and see what they say. Pistol and Dominicanboy are reliable based on last season. Looks like a solid group.

PM to confirm and start this thing up.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Im in with the Rangers.

 

[turnbuckle]

I'm in, just need a couple days to get my new ps3 delivered. Only buying it cus of the show

 

[KanZolo]

I was pretty decent at past Shows but this analog shit is messing me up. Any tips?

 

[Sanjuro]

I'm not going to deal with that analog bullshit. If it is an option, I'm turning it off. It is on your end for preference, then it's up to the player.

Don't use it

I haven't toyed around with analog hitting too much - just a couple games before I went back to zone. Analog hitting seemed easier in my small sample size. Location of pitches didn't seem to matter so much as timing. I was awful with analog pitching and never bothered trying the fielding.

Anywho, just ordered a used PS3 from Amazon with overnight shipping. Sucks that I lost my rtts progress and everything else from other games but once the league starts I really don't care about any of that other stuff anyways.

Speaking of broken ps3, anyone know of any alternatives to shipping a console to Sony and paying extortion fees ($150 or so) for a repair? The problem is either with the video card, the fans, or both. I want to get it fixed at some point for backwards compat and to simply have another blu ray player in the house.

 

[LJ11]

Guess it depends on the problem turn, seen someone talking about a hairdryer trick in some thread. Youtube always comes in handy for fix it issues.

 

[Sanjuro]

Feed it a pizza.

Thanks, I'll check it out. If that doesn't work, I'll take Sanjuro's advice.

 

[The Frankman]

I talked via PM with some OS guys and checked the forums again. Sliders are go!

Why is hitting difficulty on All-Star? Surely that's a mistake.

 

[turnbuckle]

Alright, got the PS3 downloading updates right now. Why does this take so damned long?

Broadcast presentation?
Ahh well, I don't care what the settings are. I just want to play some damned baseball with you guys.

 

[turnbuckle]

Hmm updated ps3, put in the show, and the game keeps looping the opening scea screen. God dammit this is why you should never buy used. Gonna fuck around with it later to see if I can figure out what's wrong.

Hope you get things worked out.

As for difficulty, who cares right now, lets just get this show on the road. We can all bitch and moan at the end of the season. I'll accept my invite by the end of the night.

 

[The Frankman]

I ask because I thought last year was HoF and this league would be be the same. PCI's on All-Star online are ridiculous.

Anyway PSN ID is TheFrankman86.

 

[LJ11]

It was on HoF, and they are bigger on All-Star, but at this point I just want to play.

What do I need to do to join the league? Send PSN friend requests to everybody?

 

[The Frankman]

I call it attention to minutia. Play in the Madden-GAF Series sometime, then come back and talk.

BTW can you forefeit your games with me in advance so I can save you the embarrassment of being no-hit? I really need the extra time for my RTTS guy.

 

[SephriJ]

The names Sephrij. Add me and I will be on tonight to accept.

 

[turnbuckle]

I expect a couple no-hitters with the difficulty set to hall of fame, so I wouldn't really brag about it frankman. League settings last year were perfect, but HoF is harder to hit this year. I'm cool with whatever difficulty though.

 

[LJ11]

No, as long as Sanjuro has your PSN name, he'll send you an invite under League Settings or some shit. Log on and accept it, choose your team, done.

The best part is that I enjoy playing the game, so it doesn't bother me to get no hit. It makes me chuckle that while I am laughing, drinking a beer and enjoying a video game you're pouring over spreadsheets and tearing your hair out because a slider might be one tweak off.

 

[turnbuckle]

Were invites sent? Didn't receive one. Only got a message saying my avatar was disapproved and I need to pick something more appropriate. I had chosen the same dragon quest avatar as the one I use here. Wtf.

 

[KanZolo]

I'll take the Twins
