It seems to be like I see a lot of posts lately regarding things that are “broken.” Stuff like waivers, or options or other minor details of the game.

To me OOTP is a game, close enough on the minor details is good enough for me and some time I turn these things off all together. I don’t want to get bogged down in minor financial details. I want to sign FA’s, draft players and watch them develop, make a few trades and play my games out. If I need to waive a guy and it is for 10 days instead of 56 hours or whatever the rule is I really could care less. To me the default OOTP settings ARE the rules, I really don’t care about those minor things that affect the last 5 players on my roster, I want to worry about the top guys on my roster and enjoy the game.

But I am not by any means suggesting that MY way is the right way. I am far too old for that type of self centered thinking. I am posting this poll to see where the community stands as a whole on this.

Do we want Markus to spend his time adding things like animations and other new features or do we want him to spend his time fixing every detail.

Note: also I think Markus is well within his right to ignore the community either way and simply do what he sees fit, this isn’t a Markus direction poll, more a finger in the wind to see which way the wind is blowing.
