Funny you would quote this date.

good on you, you got it!
@ Vicelicious: maybe path C) 1- the same. 2- test throughly to ensure no bugs AND give some informtaion to the users, and respect the intelligence of SOME of them. 3- Have Harry, his sister, his kid brother and even their grand mother complain the new feature is worst than it used to be :D
@ zyler: at least you are australian....

I'm glad I'm not a BB.

I see it as them having two paths to choose from:

Path A

1) Put hours into creating a major new feature to improve gaming experience for your users..
2) Test thoroughly to ensure no bugs.
3) Have Harry, his sister, his kid brother and even their grand mother complain the new feature is not out.


Path B

1) Put hours into creating a major new feature to improve gaming experience for your users..
2) Rush the launch to please users.
3) Have Harry, his sister, his kid brother and even their grand mother complain the new feature is bug ridden.

Either way its hours of work and user bitching.. lol...
Earning money is tough eh boys? :P

There is also a Path C.
Spend 30 seconds to write two lines on this forum saying whatever there is to say (the draft list will come out soon, the new feature is not ready, the new draft was only a joke, etc.)

In the meantime I will drop my investments on the scouts.

sigh.
My point was trying to help you, who said that your first language is not English. What the post meant was that EVERY SEASON there will be a scouting combine held during the all-star break. And every year, beginning after the all-star break you can spend your 10 "points" to see it. The post, grammatically speaking, makes no connection between a release date for the new draft system and this year's all star break. If you or your LA interpreted it as such, I can see why you might be upset. But, the fact is that if you did so, you were mistaken, not the BB's. The draft doesn't happen until after the season is over. No one should expect a new system to be implemented before "(for Season 13, later in the season)" because this was and is the only time frame given by the developers. If you need help understanding "later in the season" let me know.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Later in the season refers to the publishing of the initial rankings in Season 13; the point about the combine at the ASW is not qualified.

I read it as a logical deadline, that if we had to make a decision at the ASW about whether to run the combine or not, then we'd get the initial list before the ASW, as that is implicit in the original statement.

I think maybe that was the original intention and the BBs are running late.

Fair enough - BBEdju hjas said there will be news soon - although why the friggin' mystery, I don't understand. If it's being debugged and there's no soft or hard launch date yet, why not just say so?

When all is said and done, there is still a fair few weeks before the draft. Some clarification, however, would've been the sensible thing to do and I'm not sure "soon" cuts it, although it's something.

What would you like them to write?

We're working on it people! Its coming soon!


won't that jus lead to more threads like this? : )

Soon? When?

If they set a date... again it leads to path A or B.


Just take a chill pill. Either way you won't be getting your drafts till the end of the season. Does it make a major difference that you get to see the new scouting system two days ago instead of next week? but yea... BBEdju did say its almost done... perhaps he could have put a short notice like u suggested.. *shrugs*

I'm pretty hooked on this game... but I know when to step back and let the developers do their job :P

Give supporters a new feature.
Just tell us if you are working on it
No sneak peaks or teasers.
I would rather a two sentence post saying you are working on it.
I want the real thing sooner than teasers now. :}

Can you smell what the Hobos are cooking... oh wait its just Roger. (18085274)
