I play version 8.0.0.13. It's not the money it is just that I can't play the game. My problem is crashes with the message that the game has encountered a problem and must close. This always eventually happens in my leagues be it at 3 seasons, 1 season or 1/2 season. I have never had a league go past 3 seasons I believe. Once I get this message the league is done. I also have reinstalled the game numerous times but always end up having to deleat that league and start a new one. Most recently (this morning) I didn't even get to spring training and was trying to make a trade after the inaugural draft. Many times it has occured when I try to click on one of the HTML reports. Perhaps I should totally uninstall everything and reinstall using my OOTP8 license that I still have. I take any tips on how to be sure that everything is in fact off my hard drive. It is almost like getting rid of a virus.
I don't want to sound critical but...IMHO OOTP has been extremely fragile since version 6.5. Never had these problems until I bought 2007. I went to OOTP8 because it was a good price and I was hoping this had been fixed. I have preordered OOTP9 but I got to tell you, I am not optimistic.
