HAHA just saw they payed me 43 000 for an mediocre batsman with okeish secondaries some people...

Does the morale increase when you win friendlies? I've never actually won a friendly with less than the maximum morale so I don't know whether it changes. My sponsors' confidence did go up a level.

 

[Scaly piscine]

And if his ratings have also gone down?

It's a game, and it's not out to get you.

Theirs haven't changed because they'd lost a few games so their morale was crap to start with.

No training pops that I can see, unfortunately. With so many young players who haven't had any for a while I should be due for a whole bunch pretty soon.

 

[GotSpin]

No significant pops in any of my 5 17 year olds, i think there was one or two secondry pops. They are all due soon though

 

[ash chaulk]

no pops no good yp just a friendly cup win

 

[andyc]

Is there any way you can inform Battrick of errors, seeing as how my scorecard is still wrong?

 

[Hoggy31]

Only two pops for me, Nile in batting and Rowe in concentration

And andy, There is some email address or something you can send problems to, so try searching around the site and if not you can just post the problem on the forums there

 

[andyc]

How do you get onto the forums, anyway? I've never been able to...

Edit: Don't worry, I just emailed them using the address found under 'Contact Us' in Help, thanks though Nick

 

[Scaly piscine]

For the record the usual forums are at Community --> Sledging.

Average training update for me, the expected 1 primary pop and 2 secondary pops. Dillon has half of my training nets now, I'm expecting to spread the net sessions out next season, so I may as well get the excessive training out of the way this season whilst there's no penalty.

 

[ash chaulk]

yeah ive decided with the old pppl in my squad ive set all my train sessions to my 2 youngest players who i believe should be stars

 

[ash chaulk]

also the bat.bat program doesnt work for me anymore i think its because of all the new additions

There's a new version up somewhere.

 

[ash chaulk]

ok cool....

lets compare our summaries from first game to the last

Viveash
Top Order:........mediocre
Middle Order:....feeble
Lower Order:.....abysmal
Seam Bowling:..woeful
Spin Bowling:....feeble
Fielding:...........feeble


Top Order:........mediocre
Middle Order:....mediocre
Lower Order:.....worthless
Seam Bowling:..mediocre
Spin Bowling:....respectable
Fielding:...........feeble

 

[Adamc]

First as in very first? Mine:

Top Order: competent
Middle Order: feeble
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: feeble
Spin Bowling: useless
Fielding: feeble

Top Order: strong
Middle Order: mediocre
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: proficient
Spin Bowling: mediocre
Fielding: mediocre

Reasonable improvement, though I was lucky to start out with two good top order batsmen. I'll be interested to see what ratings I get with good fitness, both of the above are on fair. Never played with better than fresh I think.

 

[GotSpin]

Wow you got a competant top order to start off with... i only just got to that when my fitness was low

 

[Adamc]

Yeah, as I said, lucky to have two good batsmen to start with. You shouldn't be complaining though, you had better youth pulls in three weeks than what I've had in two seasons.

 

[GotSpin]

Ive only had 3 good youth pulls out of 6.
