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.

You can determine what goes into the Almanac.
