OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - A few random real players in fictional league

The 18 historical players are already in the draft pool when you first create the league.

I wasn't aware you could add rounds to the inaugural draft? Where would you do that? I thought the inaugural was created off of the number of teams in your league+farm system. If it's something you do after you create the league, then the 19th century players are already in the pool.

Finally, why would the game pull historical players into a fictional league. If it needed more players, it could just create them. And if it did, why would it pull players from the 1880's into a league starting in 2000?

My assumption is that this is a bug, but before I reported it, I wanted to post here and see if it's something that's been encountered before, and if there's some obscure setting or other interaction that could cause it.
