looking forward to playing with your toy :)

Parrot: It is team-rating-optimal, you will train players that are as fit as they can be for optimum team ratings, while respecting your tactical priorities.

do the skill weights used in the team ratings really reflect the importance of the skills in the game engine?
I have thought that, for example, good OD and Passing skills for big men are more important then what is shown in the ratings.

Not if you think of passing on defence as interceptions and handling as quick hands. You've just got to make the leap and trust that the BBs were there waiting to applaud.

Informational, and so entertaining. Is there a Parrot Fan Club yet?

Oh, and if you take requests, there's that Princeton offense... Is there a team out there for which Princeton would be the most effective offense (in terms of scoring efficiency and matchups)?

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

cant seem to figure out this open office thingy..... any patient tech minded manager mind giving me an idiots 3 step guide?

Ive got the ocd file and ive downloaded openoffice. Now how do I marry them up so the ocd file opens? What program should I be searching for?

I'm a windows user (for my sins!) if that helps - thanks.

Once you have downloaded Openoffice.org and started installation, click on Calc and select "This feature will be installed on local hard drive." That is the Openoffice equivalent to Mircosoft Excel and is what you need.

Hi.I want to ask you something about this program:I have 2 players,lets say A and B.They have the same passing,but B has better handling and driving.When i choose B as PG and A as SG with Low Post Offense the program generates less Offensive Flow than when i put A as PG and B as SG.Is this normal?Because I thought that PG plays more significant role than SG in Offensive Flow,so a player with better handling (maybe and driving) sould give better OF playing as PG,specialy in slow tactics.???
