Spirit of '76 League - Page 2

JB:

To test this, I created a fresh new 1976 league from scratch and never touched a day or the computer manager in any form. I went to Setup and turned everything off.

When I looked at transactions, some guys were already on the waiver list. Go figure.

I'll leave it the way it is.

May I respectfully suggest at some point incorporating the actual 1976 MLB schedule? I know I have it around, I just have to make sure it has no significant errors in it. I could probably also make a doubleheader-free version as well.

I want to take care of 1969 first, since dougaiton has his 1969 file and I would like to get him the original 1969 MLB schedule and hopefully a doubleheader-free version of it as well (assuming removing them won't change the character of the schedule too much).

If I can get 1969 out of the way, I'll take a look at getting 1976 done. How's that sound?

Sounds great to me and thanks, LGO! PM me when it's ready and I'll incorporate it.

does the 1976 league file have the almanac records books up to 1975, it shows all clear on the file

and for career leaders, does it show what happen up to 1975?
i see nolan ryan on there and it shows he has 55,000+ strikeouts

also it shows blank, the 50+hr, no hitters, past cy young, 3 + hr in a game, hall of fame, etc in the almanac...

thanks

Nope.

This file is great except that it's missing the Blue Jays.

Malleus Dei · 09-14-2004, 05:03 PM

The Blue Jays played their very first game on April 7, 1977. Nice try.

Are you suggesting that the Philadelphia Phillies are not included in this league file? I assume you are since the above link is to the Philadelphia Blue Jays AKA the Philadelphia Phillies and the last time I checked the Phillies are in this league file. I think people need to send less time trying to be a smart a$$ and more time just enjoying these great league files that require alot of time to make.

The Philadelphia Phillies are, of course, in the league file. The Toronto Blue Jays, who played their first game in 1977, are, of course, *not* in the league file.
