This may be too arcane of a situation, but it's still annoying to me...

I play a historical league, but I prefer to have players import when they first get significant PT (not cups of coffee). In the older versions I just edited the master.csv file and it was easy to adjust. Now I can't adjust the file, so I delete the players and manually import them in another year, no big deal.

BUT

Whenever I delete a player from the current draft, they get re-imported into the draft pool. If I delete them on draft day, they show up as free agents. If the player is not reimported the next year, they may appear AGAIN as a free agent. I just want them to stay away once I delete them!

Any ideas? It's clearly a bug, since once you delete a player they shouldn't rise from the dead, but maybe nobody cares about this but me. I'd sure like a better workaround than repeatedly deleting guys and hoping I don't miss anyone.
