Happy Holidays!

Markus Heinsohn · 12-23-2014, 01:35 PM

Hey guys!

The year is almost over... 2014 it was. Doesn't that sound like science-fiction? Man, how time flies. I've been doing OOTP for over 16 years now (if you include the development time for version 1), back then Bill Clinton had his second turn and I wouldn't get a mobile phone for another 3 years. Crazy. Anyway, I'm getting carried away here.

I wish you and your loved ones a great Holiday time and a Happy New Year! May 2015 be an exceptional year for you. We hope to have a tiny contribution to that by delivering fun games to you next year. So, enjoy the last days of 2014...

All the best and cheers!

Markus

Happy Holidays to all! I am sure OOTP16 will be the best ever this coming New Year!

I can't believe that I have been playing OOTP baseball for all those years (version 1 to version 15)! I still have all of the setup files on my backup computer.

I guess the old saying "time flies when you are having fun" really applies to OOTP baseball.

Thanks, Markus for a superb baseball game and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Looking forward to 2015.

Heh, I really do NOT want to show my age by telling you how "like yesterday" your examples of time flying are. Try remembering using rotary phones . . . But that's it! I'm not thinking about it. The past is past and NOW is NOW!

And NOW includes OOTPB, the best sports text simulation game on the market by far! Not just the best baseball simulation, the best SPORTS simulation.

So Merry Christmas to you, Markus, and to Andreas, Brad, and mittens77 (I forget her actual name), and all the other folks at OOTPD. Here's to a Happy and Healthy New Year, and OOTPB 15. I hope you keep this franchise going into your, heh, ripe old "middle age," Markus, you youngster!

This year hasn't been the best one for me personally, but ootp15 has given me much needed diversion from all the stress.. thank you Markus..

Everyone: have a very nice christmas and an awesome 2015...

Cheers.
