[endgame]

Thank you for your interest, Zeyes. It definitely is the AA all-star game it is searching for, no doubt. The file I uploaded actually has it missing because I deleted it. The hang was occuring with the game completed, along with its box scores, game logs, etc... I thought deleting it might help. It didn't. So apparently, it's looking for an all-star game in the deleted AA league because it defintely references SubLeague1 and SubLeague2 (which, as you mentioned, are unmodified leagues created and deleted for the sole purpose of populating further the FA pool). --shrug--

As I mentioned in my response to Larry, I don't think there's a fix. It's just one of those bumps in the road we have to live with while we learn, I guess.

Thanks again for even taking a look, Zeyes. (Afterthought: I wonder if there is a way to delete the deleted leagues from the world.dat without harm - if that's the case it would stop looking for its target, wouldn't it?)
