I've been wondering about the Talent Change Randomness setting for a while now. I always forget to ask when I come to the forums... So, yeah...What does that mean TCR? Mine is set to 100 (default). What does 1 mean and what would 200 mean?

Would you happen to remember the name of the documentary? Was it on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video...some type of streaming service?

Could you explain to me what you mean by "AI dumbness"?

Also, what do you mean when you say "manipulate the draft"? How are you able to manipulate it?

I may get more enjoyment from the anticipation of playing than I do from the actual playing. Not sure this is exactly what you are remarking about, but somehow it feels like it's related.
That's funny. ootp is always on my mind too. I take it a step further. When I sit down in front of my screen ready to get my OOTP groove on...I do one or two things and then say, "Ohh....I never responded to that email." That ends up being an hour away from OOTP. "Oh, let me see if anyone responded to my question on the ootp forums" 2+ hours go by between these forums and falling into the black hole of the internet AKA the Web! By time I get back into ootp I can't remember the two or three things I wanted to do today before the Draft starts in 10 ootp days. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat. I was so psyched to play ootp, but now my fav. Thursday show is starting up...Its 4 hours more until I proceed into the Amateur Draft. I have the attention span of a dying fruit fly...
