Arrow MLB 2006 Complete League--100% Accurate League

After checking a few things out, I was not happy with the accuracy of the default league(s), and more specifically the minor leagues. There were quite a few mistakes in the minor leagues with length of season, number of games, correct division names, correct teams in divisions, correct number of teams, playoff games and formats,etc...

I corrected all mistakes, but there are a few things to note.

1) Due to the way the game is setup, some leagues are still not correct. Any league with an odd number of teams in the sub-league had to have a team added to it to make it even(in the default teams were taken away, so the Arizona League went from having 9 teams like it should to having 8. Now it has 10). Unfortunately there is no way around this, its a coding issue. I thought it would be better for the league(s) to have an extra team than to take a team that actually exists and remove it. I think this only affects 3 leagues off the top of my head(Arizona League,GCL, and one other one...) I balanced it so that the extra team is affiliated with a team that has only 6 minor league teams(now they have 7), which gave them 7 like many other teams had.

2) Some league rules are not able to be included because of limitations, such as player age limitations or player nationality limitations.

3) Some league playoff formats are still not correct due to a lack of options included. For instance, one league has a split season and has the 2 division winners and 2 wildcards from each half of the season playing in the playoffs. Since there is no way to include this, I did as close as possible to what it is. Also corrected the formats as in almost all minor leagues, the playoff formats were wrong.

4) Fixed All Team Names to coincide to actual team names and nicknames.

5) Changed All Team and League Logos to correct logos. This was a huge time consumer, but well worth it. The only league I couldn't find were the Cuban League and the Nippon Ni-Gun Minor League in Japan. All other leagues have all correct logos for all teams as well as the league itself.

6) Added Player Photos. Included over 30,000 players so there are a wide variety of pictures. This saves lots of time adding and changing photos.

7) I did not Add The Arizona Fall League...If Anyone Would Like to add this feel free...it consists of 6 teams that play 32 games each. It's a winter league...

This is a large file, mainly because of all the players added and the logos as well. However, I think it is well worth the download... I will be posting it at the perfect game later tonite, as i had to break it up into smaller files and i cannot wait for it to finish....zzz's are needed
