Maybe its just my personal preference, but I find it odd that on the main world screen, looking at the last game the team that lost is in bold, and the winning team name is faded. This might also be that the away team is bolded and the home team faded, but I'm not a fan. I'm not sure if this was deliberate.

I have a problem with this as well - my eye expects the winner to be bolded.

Didn't wade through the previous 8 pages so don't know if this was mentioned but it seems you can't bat a position player 9th in the upgrade.

Using Chrome, off the Player Rest page, the Save to Defensive Reps and Clear All buttons beneath do not seem to work for any of my teams (the save button does though)

TZ, 

I'm having trouble with the overlay that launches telling you that you played a game and have a new boxscore to view when I'm viewing on mobile. Using Safari on an iPhone5 I only get the first line of the overlay, I can't see the entire thing so the link to click doesn't appear. Everything else is grayed out and I can't scroll. It basically freezes the site. 

If that doesn't make sense I'll take a screenshot and upload it when the 11a games play.

Is this a known issue? I can't access the world office from my cell phone as I have the same problem.

The active trade proposals notification does not seem to be working, I proposed a trade and it still is at 0. 

That was always the case. It only ever showed the number of trades proposed to you, not active trades incoming + outgoing.

I was thinking that they changed it to give you a notification on if your trade proposal was accepted/rejected vs. still sitting there. Not sure why I thought they changed it. However, can I request that change? haha

had some trouble at first but after the initial shock can navigate though a little slower

had trouble figuring out lineup change but after several attempts it seems to be an improvement
-
can't find the forum tab on my I pad 
hit the WIS icon and nothing
works fine from the PC

Another lineup setting bug, when setting minor league lineups (particularly when bringing players off rest and into lineup ),setting lineup and then copying to all pushes you back to the ml lineup screen

Also, what's the benefit of needing to open the rest section?

Here's a big one for me. I am in spring training in Pioneer. I changed a couple of pitching roles to get guys more innings that haven't been used much. I noticed that there are no longer suggested pitch counts, pull ratings and innings to enter. This is a really big deal in ST because who wants to go set 20-25 pitchers manually? Maybe I'm missing something but I didn't see any kind of optimize/recs/whatever... on that page. I use Google Chrome.

To be clear, I am talking about "show recs" on the player settings page. This is a big deal. Who wants to set all of those options individually? If I want to rest my pitchers at 90% then I shouldn't have to set that for each one, or whatever... This just makes the game more time consuming. It might involve more strategy but that's not what was advertised. We were told that changes were cosmetic.

It's there.  It's now called "Optimize", and is on the right side of the line above the column headings (directly above "Call Bullpen")

I'll just add . . . . I've been playing with the new UI for around 2 months now as one of the testers.  No functionality has been taken away, as far as I can tell.  (Except for not being able to set an NL lineup with a pitcher anywhere other than the 9-hole, and I suspect that's an easily correctable oversight on WIS's part).

So if you think some option or feature has been taken away, odds are it's just been moved or relabeled on the page.  Take another look.

Oh I see it. Sorry my bad. I found it on the lineups but for some reason overlooked it on the player settings. Very sorry to have wasted your time. Thank You.

I'm pleasantly surprised so many other users bat the pitcher 8th.  I know it supposedly gets you something like an extra ten runs a season or something, but it makes me feel like I'm doing something slightly more intelligent.

Anyway, not a fan but, because of the new handy, dandy Franchise Center, I know I've got 64 days to become a fan.   So I'll offer my opinion for adjustments.

Virtually no one cares about the Headlines.   It's at the top left.  I'd flip it with the Standings.    Second, the In Box is mostly filled with stuff no one reads(or maybe it's just me).    Flip it with the World Chat on the left hand side.

Not to be a Gloomy Gus but, since this found overwhelming support, I'd really like to either be able to swap the boxes to suit my needs or just have them re-ordered.   I wouldn't be surprised if I check my worlds 15-20 times a day between 7 AM-7 PM cycles.   If not for the scores, to see if anyone is posting some turd as available in trade or, in the very rare cases, to see if someone posted something amusing in the WC.    I've not done that today because it's a scrollfest to get past the Headlines, which I never care about, and the In Box, which gives me nothing 98% of the time.

Standings/World Chat
Game Center/Notifications
Headlines/In Box


Make it happen, WifS!

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but on the User Profile page, the total user record is in a very dark font that's very hard to read against the black background. The winning percentage is in white and easy to read, so I'm not sure why the record is so dark.
