* Individual players should be in their own thread, with the full name of the player and position(s) in the title. Don't add superlatives or any other shout outs to it... we will see your guys...
* If you post a team or a set of players, add players by editing your starting post so they're all in the same post. A bump to announce the edit is appropriate.
* Posting images are fine, provided they are small in dimension and data. 800x600 and ~50Kb should be the biggest you can post inline (using the [IMG] tag), anything larger, post a link or a clickable thumbnail instead.

Does anyone out there feel generous enough to help other people create Success Mode characters to their specifications because they aren't accomplished enough to do so? (Namely, me) I want a really "cool" lineup using cartoon characters from childhood cartoons. Cartoons like Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc. Unfortunately for me, the success mode character i've gotten had only 2 B's in fielding and error resistance.

i think a key factor in creating good characters is going in with a plan. don't try to upgrade everything evenly. that only works for those people who save/reload a ton of times. if you focus on like 3 stats and do the proper practices, everything will work out alright.

All A's would be difficult, most of your time would be in training and you would need to get a Mind Training Necklace for sure just to pass your studies, and you'll miss out on purchasing blue abilities since every single point is going into attributes. A lot of POWERIN and Hyper Gauge Booster to get Hypersleep, so your money will be tight, and you probably won't have time to date. I don't see why not though.

Considering you can more easily gain stats in season mode afterwards, I'd rather go after upgrading my abilities/skills that impact my playing ability (fielding, base-running, first ball hitter (which gives you a GINORMOUS sweet spot), among others).

Then go after the skills that assist in fast play (aggressive hitter/runner/stealer, etc).

Once in season mode, just practice up, Despite having mostly B/C stats, you're still well ahead of the curve (and cheaper too).

I'll copy DS and ask for some help - on a pretty much maxed out pitcher - (I'm looking at you The-F) Laughing

Satchel Paige (make sure he looks the way he did in real-life):
Starter
High A Control and Stamina
100-105 top speed
Uniform Number 29
Birthday 7/07
Age - 29
0 years in majors
Team - Cleveland Indians
Pitches all lvl 7:
PALM
CUT
KNCB
H-SNK
SIFB
Abilities:
Gd Delivery
Intimidator (???)
Poise
Consistency
Recovery
Durability
Safe Pitch
VS LH
W/RISP
Release
Fastball Life
Spin
Gd Low Pitch
Groundball P
Dr. K
Battler
Pokerface
Good Pace
Anything else you can get Laughing

If possible some custom pitch names to choose from:
* Hesitation Pitch
* Bat Dodger
* Hurry-Up Ball
* Midnight Rider
* Four-Day Creeper
* Nothin’
* Bee Ball
* Jump Ball
* Trouble Ball
* The Two-Hump Blooper
* Long Tom
* The Barber
* Little Tom

Yeah, it's nearly impossible, and that's why I can't do it - think Roger Clemens (version 2.The-F). You'll probably need genius to get this one (if so, you can change the types of pitches - just make one in every direction) and a gambling ring early on from room-cleaning. Thanks if you could do it (anyone).


Also looking for a Joe DiMaggio - all A's and a bunch of abilities.
