Official RBI Fantasy Draft VI - Comment Thread

Darky either put that in REALLY quickly or did a hell of a job guessing.

The Force is strong in me

[Re-Peat]

Not that strong... 

Armas and Puckett both had 2 jacks, Davis had one.  Lombardozzi looks like he may repeat his 09 heroics for the alliance, I think he only had 1 out and scored a couple runs.

The empire was barely keeping out of the slaughter zone coming down to their "last out" a few times.  Sheridan had a nice jack to keep the game going at one point.  The boys in black did a great job of spraying the ball down the foul lines for some extra base hits and took full advantage of the computer stupidity by drawing some silly errors.  Also Gladden had a homer off the bench with a right field wallzie. 

Morris pitch a complete game.

I hate Lombardozzi...reminds me of Attez (that was Attez's first user name). That dude gets so many weasel hits. He did okay for the Artichokes last season.


Moving on, I think I'm going to try and get in three games a week and hopefully season VI will last about 8-10 weeks. The idea is to get another one started up during July or so. I wanted to do this last year, but I was short on time with the baseball world championships and my team's (real life baseball here) playoff run. This year there will be two seasons for sure---which would mean another long and tortuous draft, but next time around, I'll be sure that the league will have team owners who will take the draft seriously and not hold those of us that do up.

Is the preliminary .nes file in here somewhere?

It'd also help to have a nice draft website where people could pick online. That means automTically updated draft pool and faster picks. Just sayin.

Darky, will you be posting on YouTube again this season?

If you have not been to that site before, then you'll need to register at Nightwulf's webpage there.

Brilliant idea...

[Turd]

This would be easy as hell to implement. Probably take one night of coding to accomplish. Booyah.

He wont be the MVP of the league or anything but getting a guy who can add value at the bottom of the order in round 11 is huge.

I'm not as sure about Herr.  He didn't look so good in this sim and I might have to monkey with some different lineup combos to maximize his effect (or minimize his mediocrity).  I like having Barrett and Walling as options to call up if he's looking weak.

[TβG]

make it automagically.

[AlecTrevylan006]

Damn, I've forgotten how to activate the throttle in virtuaNES

[TβG]

isn't it the [tab] key?

[AlecTrevylan006]

Yes it is, thank you.

Lmbrdzzi will be productive enough from the 8 hole. If not him, you have Barret and Herr to platoon with. Use the Force! I got great production from Smith/Barrett platooning last year. Anything over .450 from the 8 hole is great---especially with your pitching. If you guys fall behind in games early, it could be a quicky...

TBG's team can put up some runs in a hurry with all their power, but they have hit into the most double plays and they are going to give a few runs with their staff. But they will mercy rule some teams when they explode in one or two innings.

The Sally Cunts produce a lot of runs when they score with all their speed. They avoid double plays and take extra bases with their speed---compensates for their lack of power.

My team is just an all around balanced team. Hopefully the Empire will find way and get some lucky bounces here and there. I don't think this year will be a two team league like last year when the Empire and Sally Cunts were clearly the two best teams. It's going to be wide open.

Can't wait for the trading to open up

[Re-Peat]

Ran a scrimmage against the Cunts, another win for the alliance.

We ate Saberhagen alive but stalled when Viola took the mound.  Morris pitched another 9 inning gem.

Raines was a little too fast for his own good stealing a base so fast he was locked on 2nd when my RF caught a fly ball and then threw him out at first.  Fielding errors once again hurt the alliance but it was nothing they couldn't handle.

Also, defying logic, Gary Pettis took one out of the park. 

[Darky]

Here is the rom with the complete roster now! Call it the scrimmage rom until I release the official rom for week 1.

I'll start a thread tomorrow that will cover all the rules. Also, it will be the official lineup changes thread during the year.
