Just pulled a solid keeper from my youth team.....

i'm having a hard time wiping the

off my face

o.k...i'm going back to stare at his ratings some more.

HornedFrog Purple · 03-22-2003, 11:46 PM

heh I pulled usual garbage. So in usual tradition:

You suck.

bbor · 03-22-2003, 11:50 PM

I love tradition

McSweeny · 03-22-2003, 11:57 PM

one wretched keeper! boo-yah

vex · 03-22-2003, 11:58 PM

Hallejuah! I finally pulled a solid player! An 18 yr old solid winger with inad defense.

bbor · 03-23-2003, 12:14 AM

I have a question....the guy i pulled is 18...and has a value of $716 000 Canadian.....

Any ideas on what kinda value a keeper needs before he "pops"to the next level?

Havok · 03-23-2003, 12:21 AM

My pull sucked ......

My Youth squad is at weak..... should i be pulling Keepers or outfielders??

daedalus · 03-23-2003, 12:29 AM

You suck. Yes, you do.

Havok . . . the general advice for Youth Club below passable is keepers since they would only need one rating to turn out well.

Havok · 03-23-2003, 12:51 AM

ahhh ok

sony · 03-23-2003, 10:47 AM

I have a question.

If my youth team's status is poor .

Does that necessarily mean my youth pull will never be good? Like how you guys pulled a Solid Keeper... It's because your youth club is in better status than Poor right?

if that's so... i thinking about not pulling a youth up until my club is in excellent or soemthing

NevStar · 03-23-2003, 11:37 AM

sony -

Youth pull is always a crapshoot. The higher rated youth squads just have a better chance of pulling a good player. You can still pull decent players with a poor youth squad.

MikeVic · 03-23-2003, 11:53 AM

grrr

damnMikeBrown · 03-23-2003, 01:12 PM

Got a solid wing for the 2nd week in a row. This weeks was 17, last weeks was 18. Who to sell, who to sell . . .

FrogMan · 03-23-2003, 02:03 PM

and the Pintendre Pittbulls are proud to announce the firing of a wretched keeper for the third week in a row. Some tradition, I could do without...

Nyarlahotep · 03-23-2003, 02:09 PM

He'll pop between 950k and 1 mil or so.

illinifan999 · 03-26-2003, 07:48 PM

Finally got someone useful with passable playmaking.

sterlingice · 03-26-2003, 07:50 PM

Well, my dynasty tells the report of my sad, sad youth pulls.

SI

Aylmar · 03-26-2003, 08:44 PM

I pulled this kid last week

Ronnie Larue
Assessed Value: $80,000

Stamina: solid Keeper:disastrous
Playmaking: inadequate Passing: weak
Winger: inadequate Defense: passable
Scoring: wretched Set Pieces: weak

My best guy to date.

This week...alas, was not so good (Valued at $20K, weak Playmaker and passable Winger).

cthomer5000 · 03-26-2003, 09:20 PM

Where can I find out who I pulled up? I don't think I see any names out of the ordinary on my roster... help?!

You have to choose to pull a player each week.

In your team menu, goto "The Club". On the screen that comes up choose "Test Youth Player".

And if you now pull a player with any rating better than poor...

Coffee Warlord · 03-26-2003, 09:38 PM

I hate you all.

illinifan999 · 03-26-2003, 10:05 PM

Who are you guys playing in the Cup? I got to draw a brand new team out of D6. His first game will be against me.

illinifan999 · 03-26-2003, 10:06 PM

Do you guys really keep a guy with poor ratings? For me, if one of the main skills, scoring playmaking, defending, keepeing aren't inadequate or higher, he is gone.

same here

Coffee Warlord · 03-26-2003, 10:11 PM

EVERYONE in the first round is playing a series VI team, almost certainly a bot team. (generated by the computer to fill out the league, as I don't think anyone has been assigned to VI yet)

A good majority of people will be playing VI bots in the second round, as well.

In other words...we're almost guaranteed 2 PIC'd cup wins. Nice cash.

Masked · 03-26-2003, 11:02 PM

Does PIC and MOTS have an effect on cup games (I know they don't on friendlies)?

vex · 03-27-2003, 01:03 AM

Not near as nice cash if we had been the home teams.

Yes, PIC and MOTS have an effect on Cup games as they are considered "competitive".

Havok · 03-27-2003, 01:03 AM

do you get extra money from Cup wins?? as opposed to friendly's??

NevStar · 03-27-2003, 08:07 AM

attendence for Cup matches is similar to league matches (I think).

2/3 revenue to home team, 1/3 to away.
