Oh. Make me look fussy.I'll just take any brazillian scout
Right. Scouts were never exactly the same. Neither were owners, but they don’t matter. We never edited owners. Market size is what we always equalized.GMs are Owners and Owners are GMs as it's always been. I did do everything that was necessary (at the time, game has changed a lot since then) to make it as level as possible so that winning and losing were the only real drivers to money. The only things that weren't specfically set were ticket prices and IIRC your scout started at a level below the highest and I'd let them evolve to be the highest level if they did so.
Ok, this will take a bit. Assigning scouts to several teams.
6-year MLFA because he signed in '82 is my guess. Vo was going to be a MLFA on my team and he was the same deal: signed in '82, didn't go to minors until a couple of years later.
This is how it is in REEL life. You are a MLFA 6 years from when you are signed. I like that rule. Prevents teams from hoarding players especially since we don't have a Rule 5.
Something is off though in the game with service time. When I traded Durand to Cairo, his service time went from like 5-100 to 3-80.

LMAO, Jen is a free agent now?
Ah. Perfectly explained by @OU11 . So the top teams get to have their scouts progress to legendary in various areas, and Hayvis' scouts retire before they ever have the chance, never to be reinstated. I understand the attachment some top teams have to their scouts now.
Stop it.
Deadly serious now though. @Mr. Radpants - Is there any point in having scouts progress to legendary? Why can't we have them all equal. It's totally out of anyone's control and if it's an advantage, then it's bad, and if it isn't nerfing them a little won't make a difference.

Because I'd have to go look at every scout every year to make sure none of his ratings passed 179. Seriously, did you read the post where I looked at the ratings of every scout? The numerical differences in ratings are miniscule. They are functionally the same.
Back then it was more that legendary didn't mean much other than the name so it was a way to have variance without affecting the outcome of scouting too muchAh. Perfectly explained by @OU11 .

Scouts are fine. You don't hear @Wolfman21 crying, he had by far the worst scout. I'm not sure if he hired the stiff off the streets or if I forgot to fix his ratings (sorry?) but he was like 40 points worse than everyone else.
I couldn't care less. OSA is usually more correct than any scout i've ever used anyways.
Just give hayvis and mad pants perfect scouts and demote Douglass, then they’ll only have hisselfs to blame when they draft libertarian Cairo
Me too. That's unfair to whoever takes over Buffalo. Too big of a talent to just lose for nothing.I actually think a mulligan should be given

Yeah-- I added 3 guys to my 40-man the last week of the regular season when I went to 'upcoming FA'. Otherwise, I would have lost them including two-way TALENT Vo. It's pretty easy to lose talented guys.Yeah, I'm 100% in favor of this.
It's (like real life) from the moment you sign a contract. I don't know the current MLB rules but it used to be you had 7 years to put someone on your 40 or they become a MLFA (if signed under 18) and 6 years if signed over 18.IC time counts as service time? That isn’t right.
