"Overhearing" the conversations on other message boards (for other baseball text sims), I often hear people make outdated claims about OOTP. For example, they often dismiss OOTP as a GM-type game only. It is that, sure -- but offers so much more. Unfortunately, these claims go unchallenged and, I'm sure, many potential customers look elsewhere for their baseball fix. I think it would help if we could correct these misperceptions about OOTP (in OOTP advertising, for a start?).

Depends on what they're looking for. I use OOTP for fictional but I use another game for historical. I think if the defensive model was fixed it would make the historical game a lot better.
