Forever. Never gotten one yet, and rolled probably 200+ times.

in 07, i had a genius after tons of characters (many were deleted), and probably a few hundred total rolls

in 08, it was maybe 4 characters, and about 20-40 rolls total

I rolled my '08 guy about 30-40 times, then settled for a Standard Plus player. The problem was I wanted him to have a specific name and it was really long. :)

Lol
Smilingfaces96 was very lucky to have that one
I feel the same dude, I wanted to have the name Zero Gibson but they gave me the bad one (77 mph, 86 con and 43 stam)
I was frustrated and settled for the name 'Zero Zero' instead

And having a really short name, like Ben Brown. That helps too.

Nah, it just builds the impatience in me
I had a genius once, but in 2007
Fielder, Kevin, 2B, trj 4, contact 10 (C), pwr 200 (A), running speed 14 (A), Arm strength 14 (A), fielding 15 (A), e res 14 (A)
I know I should have done better
