Is there a way to keep your game at the top of the screen during a RTS?

I hate that as the games finish, my game is constantly moving around on the screen. Is there a way I can keep my game in the same place on the screen during the entire RTS so that I don't have to go searching for it as other games end?

I agree with this, but I haven't found a way to stop the games from jumping around when some games end.

It would be nice if it stayed in the same place.

That's my second quality laugh off of this board in one day. Thank you, reddawg.

Happens to me all the time. I love the concept of the real time sim but the bouncing around of the games makes it less enjoyable. Especially since I run the games at 300 and go a week at a time.

Maybe I should go at a slower pace so when they do move I don't miss as much?

I agree this would be really helpful. I think the RTS is my favorite addition to the game in at least a couple years, but having stuff moving around all the time can be confusing and/or frustrating (just like reddawg says).

The updates on the bottom left are the same way, too. Sometimes I will catch a glimpse of an update (whether injury, milestone or other), but I can't scroll down to find out what it was because it keeps scrolling me back to the top.

I don't think there are many changes that need to be made to the RTS screen (maybe add the league leaders, or standings on the outside or something... or maybe even in the future add some "widgets" so we can customize the screen a bit more), but I think that fixing these two issues would make the screen amazing.

100% agreement here.
