How Career Path works
Career Path turns a baseball career into a sequence of team periods and selected award seasons. Your task is to identify the player before the clues run out. There is no clock, so you can study the years before choosing a name.
How to play
- Begin with the first revealed clue. Read its years as well as its team or award: the date can distinguish several plausible careers.
- Choose a player from search. Each new wrong guess or Skip uses one turn and reveals the next clue. Repeating a player costs no turn.
- You have one turn per clue, and the last permitted guess can still win. Finishing reveals the entire path for review.
Scoring
A first-turn win earns 100 points. Later wins earn a smaller share according to the number of clues and turns used. For example, solving a five-clue path on turn three earns 60. Giving up or running out of turns scores zero; there is no speed bonus.
Playing tips
Compare the order of clubs, gaps and return visits before guessing. Team periods describe seasons. An award row can fall within the preceding team period; it does not mean the player changed clubs that year. Several honors from one year can share a row, and a path shows selected awards rather than every honor won. Older Dailies may use team clues only.
