Sandbox Simulations is open for business! Sign up now!
Not available in stores! Buy now! Special price of only $1 for a limited time only. We're up and running!
Go to www.sandboxsimulations.com to sign up. (You can learn more about the game as well.) For the time being, we set the price to $1, and we can't limit it to just the game testers, so if you're interested, you'll also get the $1 price. Just sign up. This is a fresh reset, so everyone will have new teams and we'll do a new draft. Also, please give us any feedback about what you like or don't like, and how we can improve navigation. We've updated all of the systems, so there's a chance that errors are lurking somewhere, but we think we're good to go now. Let us know if something bad happens to you. |

you should make the bidding anonymous and not have an amount set. Everyone gets a chance to put in a bid on a player if they want and at the end of the free agency whoever has the highest bid gets them.

Because with the 3 days resetting, with no deadline this could drag out for weeks

The idea is ultimately that this game is kinda supposed to take a long time. Remember - the offseason is 6 months long. The 'drag out' concern just isn't one that moves the needle much with the powers that be. I do kinda feel like there oughta be some step downs as the bidding progresses (ultimately you're looking at like 2 teams that are really doing bidding anyway on a lot of these guys) but I understand why they have it set this way as well. And yeah - it takes a bit... |

We could possibly do that, but I like the fun of knowing who I'm screwing over when I raise a bid. If a division rival really needs someone, I may bid more, or even bid on a guy I don't really need just to drive the price up.

When you launch commercially, is there yearly prize winnings?

We've gone back and forth on that. We won't initially, but I could see a pilot experiment at some point. I'm concerned that it'll increase interest in hacking or cheating or other nefarious stuff, so we'd want to have everything completely locked down before considering it.

The only complaint I have about the free agent process is when clicking on a guy to view his stats, when you return back to the free agent screen, it starts you back at the top of the free agent pool and does not retain organization by position. That process slows down scrolling and researching players quite a bit. |
