Player Cards - new vs. old

February 19, 2009 at 10:50PM View BBCode

I added an option in the Edit Profile area so you can choose to use the old player cards vs. new player cards (Image vs. Classic)

By default, everyone will use the new cards.

I'm torn, I like the clarity of the old cards but that maybe just because I'm used to them.

On a side note: Why do we include major league service time on player cards ?

This info is not, to the best of my knowledge, used for anything so why have it on the card ?

That's an interesting point. I've never, in all the time I've been playing SD, needed the major league service time info for any reason. Unless of course there's something I'm completely missing.

How do years of service play into Hall of Fame voting ?

I've honestly never looked at it, and am unsure as to how it could influence my voting.

Eventually, I'll fix the ROY stuff so that this field is taken into account. Other than that, I can't think of a reason to keep it - other than it's always been.

I do use it, in very limited circumstances. If I've called a young dude up for a little while, I can see that he was active for X days and I got him into Y games. (Lets me know how I'm using him.) It's a teeny little bit easier to do than do the math on when I called him up and sent him down -- especially if he's been up and down several times.

But if you had some better information to put there and wanted to kill it, that's just fine with me.

I like having the option to choose the type of player card I prefer. I think the information is easier to find on the old style.

I like the newer ones. Information is alot better to see and easier to read too

Older ones are very simple tho which is good for alot of people
