Three Questions

swampdragon · 02-22-2007, 09:18 AM

I'm now starting to think about my setup when the game comes out, and have a couple of questions for those who may know.

1. How does the game handle independent minors now? That didn't work very well in 2006.

2. Sometime last year, I saw a list of all of the minor league teams, with nicknames, classifications, and affiliations going back into the 1890s or maybe even earlier, but I can't find it now. Does anyone know what I'm talking about who can point me to that list?

3. If I start a game in the 19th century, will I be able to use the yearly recalculation option for historical players? What if I import them individually?

Thanks in advance.

I can answer number 2. It's in the signature of gohorns98. See this thread:

Not that one. This was a spreadsheet sort of list with city, nickname, league, affiliation, and year all on one line.

Thank you. That took a lot of work.

As I recall, gohorns and I planned on collaborating to update and expand that file, but unfortunately the timing never worked out.

Do you mean independent minor leagues or independent clubs within an affiliated minor league?

Thanks ctorg and gohorns98. First time I've ever seen such an extensive list of minor league teams. The spreadsheet will come in handy when OOTPB 2007 comes out.

4.) Has any progress been made in adding the ability to import a historical league before 1901?
