Thanks to the OP as well as everyone else who has added thoughts to this thread. We have thick skins around here, so we can handle any complaints - we understand why some people are upset.

Also, I can tell you that I talk to Jeff pretty much every day, and he's well aware of everything posted on these forums, including in the bug thread, even if he doesn't respond to everything. If a bug hasn't been fixed by now, it's because there is an issue holding it up, or it's been deemed lower priority.

I try to keep an eye on things around here too, and I'm active on Facebook and Twitter every day, responding to questions and comments and doing my best to address any issues that get brought up. I ping Jeff several times a day on IM to find out what's going on with this or that, or to clarify something.

If someone has decided to stay on the sidelines, or request a refund, we respect and understand that. All we ask is that you continue to keep an eye on the game, and hopefully it will deliver what you're looking for. If it takes a couple years to get to that point, so be it.

Finally, while I don't recall seeing this point brought up in this thread, I wanted to remind everyone that you can't compare OOTP 14 to FHM v1 - FHM had to pretty much be built from the ground up, so we couldn't simply run OOTP through some kind of translator and spit out a hockey sim on the other side. There's much functionality in OOTP that will be adapted for use in a hockey sim and added to FHM at some point.

Thanks, all!
