It's just wrong.

That was artfully put.

I don't know, you do have the option to show ratings greater than the max set to yes... seems odd that there'd be that many players and that many ratings higher though.

It's definitely not a text problem, news or pbp. Repost it in tech support and see if someone else can help out.

Under Created Age Max, Shouldn't the last sentence it read ?:

"You must set both this and Age Min, or both values will be ignored." ???

I would suggest that 'A playoff baseball game "has" a surreal atmosphere '; sounds better than "is" a surreal atmosphere.

"The Anaheim meet the Twins"

Should be the Angels.

Don't know if this has been posted or not, just ran into it.

b10wick · 07-06-2008, 12:46 PM

"Ortiz is around third and heading for home.. Suzuki leans, tags.. Drew is safe"

Should say Ortiz is safe, considering the throw went to homeplate and not to second base, Drew was running to second.

I don't think this one has been reported yet.

Yep, you are right.

Fixed.

Thanks for taking the time to correct the News.

Much appreciated.

This may be something Markus has to fix in the Hard-Code.

I don't think this is in the Text Database.

tysok will know.

It looks like the wrong token was used for "Anaheim". It should have been for "Angels".

Or the token may not be converting correctly.

pstrickert · 07-06-2008, 05:55 PM

Yes, it is hardcoded. Yes, we requested it be changed.

ID 21499: "[%subleaguename] Suspends [%personname#1 l] and [%personname#2 l] for Fisticuffs "

For some reason when I see this article in the game, it says " Suspends [Player #1's name] and [Player #1's name] for Fisticuffs."

That is, it doesn't fill in a subleague name. Not sure if maybe that subleaguename token is wrong or what.

I've noticed this on multiple occasions, but I took it as a design decision due to the unusual (I'm being kind by using the word "unusual" here) team name situation. The game uses "Los Angeles Angels of" as the location and "Anaheim" as the team name. I'd assume that there's no easy way for the game to use "Los Angeles" as the location, "Angels" as the team name and add an "of Anaheim" every time it's used.

Apparently the subleaguename token (National League, American League) is not working, either.

We already knew the subleagueabbr token (NL, AL) wasn't working.

I guess I will have to remove any reference to a specific league and just replace it with a generic "league".

That should fix it.

Thanks for posting this error.

If it were me, I would just call them the Los Angeles Angels.

Either "unacceptable" or "not acceptable", but not "not unacceptable".
