Suggesting to make it so that the My Players Last Game: Watch links to game.pl so that it goes straight to the viewable gameplay, setting Auto advance play as default. Would take away a few clicks for many who desire to just watch the game as soon as we click on Watch, instead of taking us to the readable play-by-play. Of course we can click on Play By Play if we still want to see that format.

For those of us with tiny connections, I'd prefer an option. The "watch" link really should go to the replay, so I don't know what I'd call the link to watch the play-by-play.

Yea, essentially. The term watch would make me think I was about to watch the replay of the game, and not read the play-by-play. An option to watch game or view pbp, maybe a drop down or separate link. But simply making watch go directly to the gameplay would probably suffice for now. I recall trying to find how to view the game awhile ago, and someone had to tell me to go through 3-4 steps to make it happen.

+1 I have also covered the screen with my hand (well blocked my eyes from seeing anything but the "replay" link in the past.

It's been suggested in the past, doesn't get a ton of looks. It's a simple thing to add, just add another link to the:
Watch | Show Score links Make it
Watch | Show Score | View PBP Text

And on the games tab just make it:
(Watch Game | View Box Score| View PBP Text)

Which would basically cover the option ability.

Like Alindyl said, it has been suggested a few times before. Seems like it should be easy to implement. Nothing happened either because we didn't cry enough about it or nobody in World League wanted this to happen. Your guess is as good as mine. I guess GLB doesn't appreciate the money I waste on this game.

+1 for the thousandth time.

i only copied it since, as you said, it was locked due to inactivity and since you had a new one of these i'd just copy it into here, and if people wanted to review how the other suggestion went.

Of course +1 to it, but would push my suggestion again because you wouldn't want to change the way things work such that people HAVE to view the first replay or the box score. There are people who actually just read the pbp text for their games so they should have that option also.

As for the interest in it, most of the non sim related suggestions tend to be non controversial or minor, so many people don't feel a need to comment on it. So with all the dozens/hundreds of suggestions that pop up in here, things drop down and get lost. Most probably don't care greatly if they have to click watch and then click replay link in the pbp. But suggest that QB's should fumble the ball when someone on the field looks at them and you'll get a lot of "debate" about it. Just the way things work.
