Ever wanted to tell the CPU GM off??

Pineywoods OOTPer · 08-11-2012, 01:56 PM

I am solo-playing a post World War II real league just to test my managing skills (currently in 1956) and I constantly am bombarded by one team specifically trying to get rid of one of their "dead weights" and take my star 2B. I get a trade proposal from this team about every two days in game and I just wish there was a feature to go with "accept trade, reject trade or discuss trade" to tell them exactly what I think of their constant badgering.....to the effect of where I want to say is this:

"Now see here, I am sick and tired of your wanting to get rid of your player. I see you must think he's dead weight with 1/2 star ability and 1/2 star potential....PLUS he is a big load on your highly strained financial situation...hence, your owner must be annoyed with you and telling you get this done or else. I'm tired of it. So please understand when I say....take your offer and your player and kindly SOD OFF!!"

But of course, not so nicely...more like go (censored) away!!

Anyone else ever get this (annoyed)??

I had this same problem. All season this one team just kept begging me for some of my young guys and its so very annoying. It kept interrupting my sim flow too.

You can set your 2B to "untouchable", of course, but yeah, sometimes telling it off feels like the best solution.

A setting for "I don't want this guy" on other teams' players would be nice.

A financial strain in 1956?
