I'm almost under the impression that you think you must have feeders to have the draft, Chuck, when you just tell it how many rounds of players to generate. I do feeders by personal preference but it is absolutely not necessary.
Well, now that I know that an amateur draft wouldn't even show up if I don't have any minors, choosing whether to have one won't be an issue, then.

At first I was going to do one major league and successively lower unaffiliated minors, but now I am leaning heavily toward four separate major leagues with no minors. If I can't have an amateur draft at all under that setup, then that "solves" my issue, although if it cannot keep teams properly stocked with a reserve player system, that's another, and potentially huge, problem for me.

So in short, I want no feeders, no minors and no draft. I want new players to just show up year after year, as old players retire, and the reason is because I don't want to bog down my hard drive with 100-200 feeder teams for 100 major league teams, and I don't want to pollute my almanac with details about feeder leagues, minor leagues or amateur drafts. It will (hopefully) make more sense to you once I launch my league live.
