Of course, if he's letting OOTP upload the file for itself, then that's not the problem (because OOTP obviously knows how to handle its own files
).
Also, you can tell the people who have had their own leagues "corrupted" by trying to DL the current file in-game that they can "fix" it (at least, get back the working copy of the league they had before) by going into their league folder, and renaming any files that end in *.bak to *.dat instead. For any file that has both a .dat and a .bak version, delete the .dat and rename the .bak to take its place.
(What's going on there is that as soon as OOTP finishes downloading a league file, all the league's .dat files are renamed to .bak files as a backup. With your corrupted league file, new .dat files aren't being extracted to take their place, so OOTP thinks the league is corrupt because of a bunch of the .dat files seem to be missing. So "restoring" the old versions will get their leagues up and running again)
