Oh I know you're kidding, I saw the smiley.

I just wanted to bitch about 10:00 am games (despite the fact I recommended Australia for the Worlds).

Good job with the Saudi U21s!

oh yeah that sucks

maybe it's just me...but i think a team that puts in the maximum number of scouting dollars allowed should be able to see the full ratings of everyone in the draft...

i know that by putting away 40k a week we do get more info available to us than those that put away 20k 10k or 5k...but there's still a lot of players that are a little fuzzy...

sure we get all of the overall ratings...but when you have a team that you've established...you want to draft by potential...if you don't need their skill now...you draft for what they can do for you in the future...and the fact that i'm missing that info on a bunch of players...it kinda erks me...if i could pay more per week to get that...i would...but i can't...so i think it should be available for 40k a week...

any of you GM's or players that have a little pull with the head hanchos...ya wanna suggest that...that'd be great

post that in suggestions.. but i dont agree.. if you have all information about all players there would be no such cases like darko milicic or gilbert arenas in the nba :D

but i would like to see the age of every player.. i doesnt need 10k a week to get information about the age :D

if you watch the playoffs and love the song of the people riding a taxi in the heineken commercial : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMEPFZa4ZQo
shortens the waiting time :D but im wondering why it takes so long from country 4 to country 8 !

Singapore is #65. FML.

well that's the thing...in a video game...it's hard to simulate a situation where you get a superstar late in the draft...or you get a dud early in the draft...unless you don't change your draft rankings at all...and you have a 1 star 1 potential F ranked player at the top of your list...

in real life...when a future superstar gets overlooked until the end of the draft...it's not due to lack of information...it's due to the scouts seeing one thing and the player bringing another to the table...

it's when the scouts don't see anything super special in a guy but once he gets to the big show something snaps and he just flourishes...or else...they see a good player who they THINK has a lot of potential and you draft him high...he can't take the heat of the limelight and sizzles...it's not due to the team putting loads of cash into scouting and just not getting enough info...

i think to more acurately portray a draft...have an extra staff member added as a scout...the better the scout...the more reliable the draft rankings...

you got a level 10 scout...he's gonna be costing you an arm and a leg...but if he says this player is a bum with no future...he's a bum with no future...or he tells you this guys future is so bright you need uv protection...you better draft him...

if you got a scout that is only a level 1...and he says that Bob Smith is the hottest thing in sneakers...you go draft him...he turns out to be the biggest flop ever...the only way he can dribble a ball if he has it in his mouth...the last steal he made was from the candy store when he was 4 and he thinks the only way to get a board is when he's building a fence back home on the farm...you should be TOO suprised...

and that's how you get stars going late and crap going early...but having poor scouts...

The link hasnt appeared but the lists are up for many, as stated earlier in this thread. Check Rules>Draft>Edit Draft Order.

This point with the players Age was my thought too about necessary changes.

When BB wants to lean on Realitiy, it should be no problem for a scout to find out the age of the player he scouts at the first scouting.

Nations List:
Canada = 4
China = 5
Turkey = 6
Spain = 7
Germany = 8

Ok, when Spain (the most leagues i think) is before Germany, we have to be patient a little more. I go back to sleep :-)
