newtman Joined: 11/02/2013 Posts: 3343 Inactive | Personally, as someone who started playing this game while in grad school, with a lot of student loan debt, the draw was that unlike the game I was coming from (GoalUnited) the game is not pay to win, or even pay at all. That virtue should never be overlooked by those of us who really couldn't afford to continuously dump money into an online game. The Christmas season and buying all the associated gifts is a nice time to reflect on some great things in life are actually free, and Steve has made BrokenBat one of those things by absorbing the costs. Thanks again Steve! | ||

The more times through that list, the more likely I am to find THE ONE! This is part of what bugs me. Steve changed things previously saying it was to eliminate the need to spend countless hours going through lists of players in an effort to help the casual owner. This reverts back to the old way. At least with waivers everyone had a fair chance; this requires luck in timing, thus rewarding the owner who does nothing but sit and wait for the new managers to appear. I may not have been clear in my several posts. I hate the new managers AND the process of obtaining them. Updated Sunday, December 11 2016 @ 8:50:33 am PST |

Thanks again Steve! No problem...was a graduate student myself (more than a few years ago now). Know what it like to survive on Ramen and donuts. Surprising, I was thinner on that diet than my current diet. Steve |

Den Duston Joined: 01/15/2014 Posts: 161 Inactive | I agree with occham about managers and ....+1 to newtman. Not to mention that Steve pay attention to the suggestions made by players...as we can see. I know many games online that you have to pay and the admin doesn't even care about his customers.
