[Stanley Kuppchaser]

I am really enjoy reading what people are writing about PT. Even the cranky ones. I especially love the back and forth between writers about the "right" way to play. Should you try to be Moby Dick or Ahab? George Steinbrenner or Bill Veeck? Joe McCarthy or Tony LaRussa?


BTW, if my references seem dated, it's because I am as well. For you younger folks, as Casey Stengel said, "You could look it up."


Actually they're all "right." Hence the title of this thread.


The fact that there are so many approaches to PT play demonstrates the accomplishment of the OOTP team. Good on you, folks! It crowns the legacy of innovation and care you have built.


I myself have never played OOTP before this. I lost interest in baseball around the turn of the millennium, so the modern game and players have little meaning for me. I have been buying OOTP since becoming an FHM player just to support the company.


Then came PT. I am now up to three teams, replacing the modern day players with those I saw and read about back in the day. Don't know what a Mookie Betts is, but pulling one from a pack is gonna speed up the development of the Aceldama Butchers as soon as the auction ends. It'll take some of the sting out of the Port Ruppert Mundys losing a Benito Santiago auction by one PP in the final minute. That was excruciating, but what fun.



It'll take some time to get it where I want, but baseball is not about instant gratification. It's about seasons. And a season a week is pretty quick.


Take your time and enjoy the ride.
