back-ups are essential to long term sims ..... somewhere somehow it's gonna mess up (or i'll mess it up more likely) and rather than start anew - those backups are life savers. my league has expanded and expanded to 60 MLB international teams with 3 levels of minors plus the IC. it takes a good 15-20 mins to backup most days (i back up and then zip copy that back up to an external HD). i make a backup every 10 game days, so if i mess up big time, i only lose a little more than a week.Recently i did something - lost my entire draft pool. Still not certain what i did or clicked inadvertently - but a backup from 3 days earlier got me going again. If it takes time, it takes time. But i feel they are essential especially for games that have gone on from earlier versions and have taken on a life of their own.
