I'm not one of those people complaining about the offseason. But would it be other things that usually clog the whole processing? regardless the real processing that takes place actually I had in mind would be before the offseason.

The user can choose what a player looks like from 10 different option, that option is available before the beginning of a new season. So all the random face generation happens before the season starts, and can happen very slowly and gradually from the begininng of the season much like the draft where there are tons of random inside info that isn't available until midseason, but processing it little by little each day or week will not accumulate tons at once. Anyways those options are available to users, they submit who they like, and by the time it reaches offseason, the processing starts which only process one player appearance and name which the users chooses. The rest is deleted from the system so in the end the only impact that the offseason has is the processing of the choices being submitted with 1 player, not 10 players.

I know how codes work, and there is an efficient solution to this.

Alright..

So how many of you at closet Sims fans? Secretly playing when your significant other is asleep.. Creating yourself in the game with your partners then hooking up with the neighbours...

Let's just work on making the basketball aspect a bit better first. Jerseys would be a nice addition, as would club logos in the Match Viewer..

I like the idea of changing the look of some players but it isn't really necessary. If you're gonna sell your player cause he's ugly.. You're playing the wrong game.

Alright after reading GM-Perpete messages if the things slows the server then I agree it should be at halt and we should get jerseys out first. In fact I proposed the idea of jerseys before reading all the other forums that were around so I'm a proof example also of why we should have jerseys.

I mainly addressed the changing players appearance issue to tackle the problem with all the requests that goes around here (as well with name changes). I think these are great ways to give users the requests they want as they eliminate the issues that are constantly brought up when people discuss these topics.

The players appearances should remain as it is for now, let's get jerseys first.

Like white nigerian guys ?

Well, this has not to be adressed by users, but by BBs themselves with more proper face for chinese or other asian people.

fyp

But it is adressed by the users and for many seasons now - I think this should be fixed really asap AND this sure is not a huge coding thing to do.

seriously we need to be able to style our guys hair. A balding 18 yr old? just kills me lol,

I think it would be a very attractive starting feature. We could customize our draft picks looks at the first and then customize changeable items. I like the idea but I am not sure of the reward for game play.

No, then a lot of people would choose the same hairstyle. It's best to let things stay random. And if there's bald 18 yr old, so be it, he'll get old in a few seasons.

I love the randomization of it, that you can build a team around someone who looks like a total goofball, like the player to the left, who is my franchise cornerstone despite having the hair growth ability of an infant. If this suggestion were implemented it should be done in the form of a contest to customize your draftee or something (like the name your draftee contest) but even then I don't totally see the point.

Maybe change the coding to make appearance more congruous with nationality but I can probably think of 100 things the BBs should do before they worry about that.

One of my best friends was 90% bald by the time he was 20. It sucked to be him because it was really ugly and he tried to shave it but had ugly patches growing in clumps here and there just like in the bb picture. He was gay and I don't know about the USA but as a stereotype over here gay men are immaculatly groomed and put a great deal of time into their hair and clothes while my 20 year old friend looked like a 40 year old who just didn't care.
