Well, I'd imagine you'd have to hide the pants somewhere. If she sees them lying on the living room floor the gig might be up.

I'm not allowed in the living room now days. Not since I filled my hat with mayonnaise.....you guessed it, .500.

Just curious, I've you tried playing the game while sitting on the toilet yet?

There's a little known trick to improving your results. Fool the game into thinking you are the AI, and the AI is really the human player. Works like a charm for me. Plus, I was admitted to the secret AI society, learned the secret AI handshake, was allowed to wear the secret AI cloak and hood, and -- best of all -- learned the secret hiding place of Steve Jobs.

Pshaw. Speak up when they let you in on the plans to take over the planet and kill us all. Then I'll be impressed.

I use a desktop and the cord won't reach.

I call nonsense on your pants theory. Frankly, they're too small to be a valid test. I wear larger pants and therefore have a bigger sample size. Try adding 1000lbs and then maybe you'd have something (at the very least, a larger "sample size").

Asking because I know it works for Candy Crush.

Look, if you want to be great you have to pay the price. Call the contractor.

I start with a historical mash up with a fantasy draft, it takes me about 3 seasons to be in the top 2 in my leagues. I am also strict and try never to sign a player to a contract that gets him passed 35.

I also use movie theatre popcorn butter to grease my results!

You're right. Please don't try to move the toilet yourself. That's another thread.
Just call the man!
