Thread was locked on GLB main and no one has said anything in 8 days, I figured that meant it's probably time to move the conversation over to bugs. I tried making a bugs thread about it in November or something, but since there are no arrows on the forum search page (not a bug... seriously?) I can't search back to see when I did that.
Anyways, here's the original conversation: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4401065&page=last#40240344
and here are some of the most important posts:

For the first time ever I have seen this Hurdle SA shown on a replay.
Did they changed something or has it alaways been there, but never fired for 2-3 season.

I will follow up on this issue for you.Originally posted by EllisBell Admin Dec 30, 2010 23:30:38
OMG I am back with an update
So "hurdle" has always worked but I have had it from authority that it was indeed only recently programmed (as of this season) to show up in the actual replays, hence why you haven't really seen it until now.
It works best if you have higher jumping stats since it only applies do diving tackles and requires jumping to work better. Originally posted by EllisBell Admin Dec 31, 2010 22:11:46

Thanks Ellis.
Next question: Why was this change not documented in the changelog with it being a visual change to an aspect of the game?Not sure... unless it was lumped in with some other updates. I don't update the change-log... Originally posted by EllisBell Admin Jan 1, 2011 12:49:34

Another question is "why has it only triggered ONE player ONE game ONE play if it was supposed to trigger for everybody on the replays? "
How about, "isn't this a sign that it's a broken SA?"
So many questions: "Why did it take a month to get the information out that it was supposed to start showing up in replays?"oy vey
Ummm I actually spoke with Bort directly about this issue, he gave no indication that this SA is broken at all, just that it is hard to trigger because it only works on diving tackles and I quote, "It's pretty ineffective if you only have like 30 jumping or something, though, since it only applies on diving tackles (of which only a portion all tackles are), and requires jumping to work better."
If you really want I can bring this up again since you guys are so passionate about this SA. Sorry it took a long time for me to get back to this thread, I think I started a PM conversation with someone on the topic and forgot the thread was here.
If you ever want info just PM customer support, that is the easiest way to get straight answers. Sometimes forum threads get lost in the shuffle http://goallineblitz.com/game/support.pl.Originally posted by j10er Jan 2, 2011 19:57:01

The replay I linked was from Season 18, so it's been able to show up in Season 18 and Season 19. Originally posted by EllisBell Admin Jan 4, 2011 11:07:13

We don't blame you Ellis, just frustrated with Senior senior management.Don't be frustrated with them, be frustrated with me. I should have someone else post a response who knows the inner workings even better. I think my quote may have been taken out of context. I will see if Bort can provide some input on this thread.
