With us being able to set up our lineups, there are definitely some new pitching strategies being administered.  Such as intentionally beaning power hitters, pitching meatballs to the speed guys, and throwing nothing but dropballs with MScott.

This season should be very interesting, and a learning experience for all the owners.  We're playing the game in a whole new way. 

[Attezz]

I'm with you on the first two strategies, but dropballs with MScott are balls like 98% of the time, once your opponent realizes this they'll just start taking everything, and MScott will be done by his second inning.

Keep up the good work guys.  And Attabobble is right, don't fall in love with the drop pitches.  The beauty is in the surprise, don't forget.

[Gantry]

Simply awesome work boys, kudos...

25/90 games complete on the regular season.


The Los Angeles Dodgers (formerly Houston Astros) look like the early favorite as they are 9-0.  Still working on getting game film up in a viewable form...

Depending on what emulator you use, you might wanna use Frapz to record games

[Attezz]

If it's hooked up to the tv, you should use a vcr.

[Polish Rifle]

Good point....but I was meaning more for internet viewing.  There is a way to record movies on FCE Ultra but I don't know what form it records in.

I cannot say enough about recording NES games onto VHS....nerdery at its finest!

Thus I suggested frapz. See if it works with ultra.

[broiler]

the loser of the league should have to do something really embarrasing like get a hello kitty tattoo on their lower back

with the audio hooked into a mic so you can do your own play by play and color commentary.
