ITT: no one understands what a beta is.

Here's a clue, we haven't been in one since 2008. Live post beta products are constantly being developed, dead products are left to stagnate.

So to translate from glb to the normal gaming world:
Alpha = Beta
Beta = Live
Post Beta = stagnation/death

To be fair, we're using Bort's definition of "Beta" as he's been using it in the context of the game.

I suppose instead of saying "When GLB left Beta," I could instead say "When GLB left what Bort calls Beta but the rest of the game industry calls a live game," but that would get old fast.

Or I can just say "When GLB left Beta" and everyone here in GLB-land will know exactly what I mean.

Your point is certainly valid if I ever talk about GLB on a non-GLB site, though.

Bort should just throw in a random element to some of the sim calculations. Don't make it have a big impact on the sim, but make it consistent for the entire season. Suddenly the value of jumping in a diving tackle score fluctuates +/- 10% or something.

Not enough to break the sim, but enough that people need to account for some sort of change.

Then at the end of the season tell us what the change was for the last season and people can see if they were right.

weird, I was thinking same thing earlier but did not have time to post

would add a nice element to the game each season. By the time people caught on to what was "working" , it would change again

Think it was more of them bi...' n about the bugs in the game because it was still in BETA... the theory was that when the bugs were mostly gone and the game improved (as far as lolsuggestions are used for representation), then they were tied together.

Out of BETA = No more needed changes

Instead most thought it would be "No more needed changes" = Out of BETA ... not sure if there are really any more needed changes though.

Now that we're out of beta I would like to see more bells and whistles added. Mini-games being at the top of the list.

It really has nothing to do with me winning WL. I am bored because nothing about the game has really changed in a number of seasons. It is like trying to go through a career in Madden. It gets boring after a number of seasons.
