You aren't thinking about the numerous other possibilities enough

Like what? I am all ears as like I stated I am new and learning...

However there is no tangible evidence that supports the theory that the players we scouted are any better or worse then the players unscouted.

It could hurt your rep with the agent and he/she would be less likely to want to deal with you in the future.  Assuming I don't and you end up going after Haller, I've got a report on him so just hit me up and we could probably work something out.

I understand that aspect and consider it greatly as you do not want to have a bad relationship with the agents as it will make for a hard time. However I feel that we are suppose to treat this game as realistic as possible and at times things can get heated between agents and GM and sometimes a deal just can't be made.

So I am basically with Justin with taking a stand but much like in real life when you take a stand the consequences could possibly suck!

Thanks for the offer bud I appreciate it.

This game is far from realistic, temper your expectations right there. But I wouldn't stress the signing thing. Some FBL GMs will move heaven and earth to sign anyone and everyone. Some will let player's walk if they ask for too much. Do what you want to do. There are more players in the pool than we need to fill out a roster. Don't feel pressured to play in a way you don't want to play in. If you want to be a hardnosed GM, be one.

Never said this game is realistic... I said we need to treat this game as realistic as possible which means we need to act like we are actually running a real life company and do what is best for our company. We need to stay within budget and make sure everything runs smoothly.

In doing this we must at times be hard and make difficult choices much like people who run teams and companies in the real world.

I meant don't expect characters to react to you in realistic or sane ways. We all expect the agent to lose his shit on Justin for example.

[Tritch]

yeah i'm predicting a very powerful promo...

[¿PapaPancho?]

Think Rob is jumping the gun a bit with his proposal that he might do himself more harm than good.  But Mike is JUST establishing what kind of Mod he is.  So who knows

Oh I see... Yeah well thanks for that heads up lol

Rule #1: Don't expect anyone or anything to act rationally.
Rule #2: Remember, it's a game with endless possibilities.  When you think you've been boxed in - think of something creative to get yourself out.  It just might work.

I was thinking the same thing. Seems like tampering to me, but we'll see how Mike handles it.

Risks are sometimes worth taking

[Tritch]

is Stance available for negotiations now?

[Sgt. Josh Underpants]

Would talking to our guys about name changes for gimmicks be something available?
