Hey folks, I searched for this problem and didn't see it in Technical Support, so I'm posting it. I started my league at the beginning of the 2007 season and played from there. I've encountered problems but have always found fixes by searching Technical Support (most notably, I have scouting and coaching turned off because of my coaches and scouts belonging to other teams and not being able to fire them or use them as scouts, a bad bug that I'm hoping will be fixed for ootp 9). This time, no dice. I was in the middle of my 2028 first-year player draft when the electricity went out, when I went back into the game I was able to replay the games I lost up to the player draft. I then went into the draft screen and clicked on "continue draft" and the game crashed, giving me one of those "ootp8.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close" messages from Microsoft. I tried pushing back the draft a day, changing the order, and changing my Rookie League roster limits to unlimited but it still happens every time when I click on "continue draft," never actually making it to that screen.
