I've bought and enjoyed every release since then. I have enjoyed being able to lose myself in my own little baseball world.

Being a Pittsburgh Pirate fan since 1980 (I'm 35 now) it's probably good that I have an alternate baseball world to enjoy.

I play in Albany, NY. Born in The Bronx, grew up near Poughkeepsie, NY and remember listening (and being blinded by) Lindsay Nelson's jackets while watching the Mets on WOR-9. I miss Kiner's Korner and there were always too few happy recaps in those days.

Of course, I also have memories of Mssr's White, Messer, & the Scooter on WPIX (channel 11).

My father still thinks his greatest failure as a Dad was raising a boy from The Bronx who is a Mets fan

It is a whole different world though in the Catskills (weather) than in Orange County, plus not a whole lot of stores and business up there either. I still spend a lot of time in Middletown. Now if only my wife could finish school so we can move back in that direction it would be fantastic, because I work in Monroe . The commute is not so bad now but when I started it felt like it took forever.lol

Ah, Route 17. I grew up off western 17, the Southern Tier Expressway. Never in my life have I seen a road under permanent construction.

I spent many a summer at my grandparents house in Nicholasville as a youth. Usually stayed for 2 weeks each summer. The farms out there were beautiful. I havent been back in probably 25 years, but I remember it like it was yesterday.

Playing and commishing the only online fictional Puresim league on the web (that I know of at least ) from Washingtonville, NY. That's a stone's throw from where Nukester lives and slider works in Orange County. Our league is entering the 5th season and still going strong! Just ask Nukester how much fun it is playing against real people since he is part of the league.

A great big thanks to Shaun for all the time he puts in supporting the game let alone all the new programming involved.

I don't want to turn this thread into anything more than it was intended for. I'll send you a PM.

If anyone is interested in learning more about our league or setting up and playing an online multiplayer league, please feel free to PM me.

Scottish flag to boot too

It Rocks!

Thanks, Shaun.

Status: offline 		Northern Rhode Island. Been following/playing Puresim and OOTP since the days of OOTP1 and Pre-Puresim. I commish the longest running OOTP league in history, the MLB Century. MLBC started with OOTP2 in 2000 simming 1905, we are now simming 1966 with OOTP6.5. Honestly until recently I preferred OOTP as Puresim did not replicate deadball baseball very well. Now that the engine sliders have been added and closers can be turned off deadball is much more appealing. Also allowing strategy decisions from the main game screen is a tremendous addition for deadball play. I find myself now playing Puresim much more that OOTP as I am not a fan of the direction OOTP has taken since the 2006/7 release. Puresim as is presented now is probably somewhat superior to OOTP6.5 but without the online league features of 6.5. The interface and 'game feel' of Puresim is extremely more to my liking than OOTP2006/7/8.

Geez, it seems like one of the biggest markets for the game is in the Hudson Valley - Catskill Mountain region of New York

Also I'm still the ONLY ALASKAN that is on these forums and that plays Puresim that I know of.
