QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Feb 24, 2005 -> 10:02 PM) Starting to pick up Owner mode. Few tips.... Make ticket prices pretty low to start off, but when you have a big series coming in(NY, Minny,Boston) raise the prices on Tickets and Food. Make sure you buy the food stands 1st, dont worry about like Arcades and fireworks. Im pretty sure just basically coming out even the 1st year is good, then as you gain more $$, buy more seats. I started a new one and am simming. I didnt buy any seat upgrades but i bought a ton of concessions including the most expensive one which had really good point values for items. Im not sure what they mean but they are probably good And i really think owner mode is for people who like to sim and manage your league, not play every game. You cant even buy the outfield seat upgrades til after your 3rd or 4th season.

I looked up most of the sox players Star Potential and Thomas, Shingo and Pods all have 5 stars. Thats probably it but i didnt look at most of the bullpen because i didnt think they would have 5 stars. Maggs has 5 start too but that dosent concern us anymore.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Feb 24, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) Anyone else having trouble with Owner Mode? How do you make it so you get a good, steady cash flow coming in?? I have the same problem, I simmed a season and I was 5 Million in debt, but made the playoffs and after i lost in the first round i had 8 million dollars and by the way, in that Sim Jeremey Reed won Rookie of the year

Im lookin at some of the MVP Rewards. Heres a few things i noticed: No Old Comiskey Fisk is an unlockable guy (it says mystery Catcher but he played on the red and white sox from 1969-1993) hmmmmmm New 1980 Unlockable sox jersey

Holy crap the computer attempted a stolen base.....that never happened in 2004

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 23, 2005 -> 11:15 PM) Haha, great, you guys tell me this now, LOL. My stadium holds 20,000 and I still haven't been able to get myself a hot dog stand. But my soda stand is selling like mad. Its kind of cool, its like sim city or rollercoaster tycoon meet MVP. Same thing happened to me, my friend told me about it when i was 2 games into my season too.

When you start owner mode, make sure you set your budget to HIGH or whatever on the options screen. Its far down. You can buy the more seats upgrade right away, which you NEED or your stadium looks like s***.

Just so you know, in owner mode you create a stadium but when you go play your games you can chose to play wherever you want, so you can play at the cell

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 10:28 PM) I don't click on anything from someone I don't know. I also hate AIM with a passion, i've just never liked it. Me neither, the only thing is, i got it from one of my best friends. And him saying pics from the beach is something he would say for normal pics cus he is weird like that.

Here is what it looks like, except it will change to the backround color and font the person has set. BTW this is the guy i got it from Ive also heard there is "New Pics from Valentines " but ive never seen it. It was just mentioned while i was lookin for fixes to this one.

If you ever see "Pics from the beach :)" and a link in someones away message DONT click it. It makes you have that away message every 5 minutes even when your off AIM, it logs you on and gives it to you. Plus it makes Windows Task manager not work, it closes after 2 seconds. I clicked it and have been searchin for stuff all night, then gave up and system restored to 2 days ago because I knew i clicked it yesterday. Im all set but lost all the files to my game i bought yesterday :banghead

happy bday

I pre ordered mine at EB Games tonight and the guy had no clue what i was talkin about when I said I heard it was comin out on Feb. 22, even though EBGames.com has it as that.

QUOTE(thelatinoheat_30 @ Feb 18, 2005 -> 05:51 PM) i played yahoo 2 years ago and won the championship. last year was in a winner's league. but it wasn't it a soxtalk.com league. i would be new to the soxtalk.com league. i would be very active, prolly too active, but oh well. 10 teams would be cool. i would prefer a live draft as close as possible to start of reg. season(in case of injuries in spring training), head to head. no real preference on keeper's leagues. i already said i had interest tho. i'm out

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Feb 18, 2005 -> 05:33 PM) Wait...how is TadahitoIguchi in league 3 and 7??? Newbies. Ishmookie invited him....its being worked out.
