If you are selective I think you could do well investing.

Obviously the OP is not getting the reaction he expected.   Just seems really salty, and didn’t think ahead.  If anything this was easily predictable, as it has happened every single year. There is nothing shady going on here, it’s a new program.    Some people just look for any opportunity to bash EA, justified or not.

The longevity (stat collectors) usually get in, and I think Eli will too, but I never considered Eli among the best QBs in the league at any point.

Not what I would call a snipe.  Probably near market value.

I think a lot people got to the end of the season(season rewards) and realized they had negative 5000 rushing yards. Decided it wasn’t worth it this year.

Quote from layd2rest >> Is and always has been cheaper to buy than build. Every promo every year to date.  This is simply not true.  Latest example. How much did it cost to build the 94 oline players in the NY promo? Nothing but time and stamina.

Wouldn’t count it.

This is not unusual. If everyone could just use this method, everything would sell every time.  It just doesn’t work that way.    Not trying to say the AH works well. Just saying this is not unusual.

Quote from Spud >> Some legitimate things here, not going to argue that. Plenty of issues to go around and plenty that we here at MH would like to see addressed differently.   However, it's clear that we as a community overvalue ourselves. Clearly "core players" are not the priority. Assuming EA is using advanced analytics, they've identified a user base that installs, spends, keeps spending and requires very little maintenance. Who knows what their churn rate is, but it's obviously acceptable to corporate.   Again, not saying it's right... But we've placed a different value on our presence within MM than EA has.

Quote from milesaboveyou1 >> The NY promo was the worst I have seen so far, if that's where future promos are headed,  all EA guys deserve permanent vacations. Wow. I guess this just proves that it is impossible to please everyone.  I think the New Years promo is one of the best so far.  Very simple. Good and much needed content.  Relatively easy to get several high level players without spending a penny.  I really don’t know what else you could realistically want out of a promo.     Anyway Happy New Year Nick
