newtman Joined: 11/02/2013 Posts: 3343 Inactive | Yes, Steve reiterated that recently. I searched for the quote for 15 minutes to no avail... it's 2:30am where I am, I'm beginning to wonder if my memory is playing tricks on me or if I'm just missing the thread. It would have to have been at least two or three weeks ago though since I checked all the threads I commented on back to there, and I think I saw it due to that. TL;DR: I give up.

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9568 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | Wow! What about arm strength? I've been putting my highest ranged guy in CF, but if range doesn't matter I should probably put the highest AS guy there instead. Is speed done on aggregate for defense too? I thought play by play was calculated by position, but it sounds like that isn't actually the case. Defense? Should I bother putting a high defense guy in CF, or is that aggregate too?

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9568 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | This section of the manual should probably be updated because its VERY misleading: Left Field: Left fielders (LF) need range, but not much fielding skill. A strong arm is nice, but not required. Updated Sunday, November 30 2014 @ 3:05:57 pm PST |

gadzooks Joined: 05/11/2014 Posts: 54 Inactive | Its unclear (to me) from the other thread whether the "aggregate range" is the mean range of all outfielders or a weighted mean by position. I suspect the latter, which would mean where you play your high/low range players would matter in terms of your effective defense. | ||

Rock777 Joined: 09/21/2014 Posts: 9568 Haverhill Halflings III.1 | Yeah, that would make more sense. If its weighted by position, then you can forget about my freak out above. |
