Converting a 6.5 League

BPerez9999 · 01-11-2009, 06:07 PM

I play in an online 6.5 league. I purchased a new computer and figured I would upgrade to version 9. However, the game tells me I can only import 6.5 leagues that are on opening day.

So I finished the season unable to update my line-ups, etc. The season rolled over and I am getting the same message again. We are still drafting and have not started FA bidding so I am not sure we are technically on opening day. But I am already very frustrated paying for an "upgraded" game that I cannot even load my league into.

Let me know if anyone has any guidance on importing a 6.5 league. But this seems totally unacceptable to me. I'm just hoping I'm doing something wrong.

Opening Day is the first day of the regular season. In OOTP 6.5, I believe that it was always April 1st.

If you are not on that exact day, you can't convert your league.
