Consolidate Draft List

BMW · 11-10-2008, 06:40 PM

This option isn't discussed anywhere in the forums, manual or in-game. It doesn't even appear to do anything when I select it, so it must require some explanation to understand what it is supposed to do.

Does anyone have an explanation?

Can you provide a screenshot of the option?

I just ran a test league to try and find it, but I couldn't.

Is this something online league specific or does it occur in all leagues?

EDIT: Ahh, now I see it. You have to have it set as an online league and you have to control a team. Consolidate is another word for merge, but I don't get why each round is a separate list. I tried making different lists for different rounds and consolidating them did nothing. I've only used Getch's draft list utility. I'd easily recommend it.

That's what I did. And yes, it appeared to do nothing. But I do want to know what it does.

Consolidate is a ten-dollar word, so I'm hoping it's cool and not, in fact, nothing.

just a guess...

it creates one file for all rounds that gets uploaded?

as opposed to creating a file for each round?

Figured it out!

If you erase players from the middle of your list, "Consolidate" rebuilds it without the empty space.
