OUT OF CHARACTER BOARD

[T-Bonizzle]

You can approach them though, and that is met with varied success. It really depends on your approach, you as a GM, and what you have to offer.

[GM Franchise]

For the newbies with expansion teams, the guys Franchise recommends are Apollo, Kradle, Foster, Stream, Vraba, Walls, Chachenko, Paul, Walton, Weasel, Cross, Giankonopolis, Free, Johnson, Peters, Smalls, Scott, Huffers, and Frame in that order.

Ian just indicated in the shouty we could get in touch with Spanish teams and open negotiations ourselves, actually...


[Jan 24 16:08:32] Trumpers:You can always approach a Spanish team
[Jan 24 16:08:42] T-Dungeon Master:How would I, never haven't dealt with Spain before, be able to possibly deal with Spain?
[Jan 24 16:09:02] Trumpers:but again there is a sort of relationship thing with Spain

[Mike Powers]

Thanks guys.

[Domingo]

And more times than not, if one of the teams contact you to acquire a player, it's best to send that player so you can build that relationship.

This.

Well, Ian just said otherwise. To the shouty I go!

Walls higher than Chachenko and Walton? You're mental.

[T-Bonizzle]

Chachenko not #1? You're crazy

[GM Franchise]

Walls higher than Chachenko and Walton? You're mental.

Actually that's was a mess up. He should be behind those two and maybe Giankopolis too. Somewhere in the middle just for defensive purposes.

I would put Vraba far down that list, impossible to keep happy for more than one game. Then he tries to commit suicide.

Walton carried a team on his shoulders and is a solid player, I'd have him higher up the list. Chachenko is beastly in defence. James Cross is also now broken so approach with caution, put him further down the list. Sparky Weasel is a good pick up if he has some physicality around him, Bamba Smalls is a solid pro. Walls has so far been a bust, take him above the likes of Chachenko, Walton, Paul and Weasel at your own risk.

Also what Jen said about you being mental

[GM Franchise]

Chechenko is also 30. Age was a factor in this as well.

[Hondo]

More like Kradle, Stream, Apollo, Chachenko, Walton, Giankololopolis, Paul, Peters, Weasel, Huffers, Free, Cross, Johnson, Smalls, Wall, Scott, Frame, Vraba, Foster.

[T-Bonizzle]

Chechenko is too low, Kradle and Stream too high, Walton maybe a tad too low.

[Ian "Wolfie" Trumps]

Just for the record any new guy thinking Franchy has the answers and is wise...he failed to win a game for 2 seasons with 2 different teams. He destroyed the Toppers franchise and also almost broke the game/stat simulator his Boise side was that bad.

And he also traded to obtain the unknown 8 million dollar paid Ecko Walls...and despite being told DONT DO THE TREEMAN OFFENSE...which was a joke offense...he did it in the process of telling Tony Massimo he was effectively Michael Jordan.

So yeah...he's not exactly the FBL's version of Jimmy the Greek

[GM Franchise]

Actually Giankopolis might be too low and under the radar. He had better stats than Foster last season.

Ian said what I've been thinking for this entire 'Franchise, pro advisor phase' in the game.
