I do hope it does get fixed this week, such as it is.



One last thing. I bet over the years, since they introduced the friends list, I have probably posted nearly 10 times, offering thoughts or suggestions and have never had even one acknowledgement that my of my posts was read, let alone considered. Ah, well.

One thing that would help a ton... if the OOTP team would at least tell us the "rules set" of the routine that decides how to distribute teams from the friends list.


I assume the friends list is handled first - likely has some restrictions (like can a 30 team league consist of only "friends" or is there a top limit?)


Once a list of friends teams is assigned to a league, are they distributed randomly between the 6 divisions?


What happens if a friends list has 50 names on it?


A summary of these restrictions / rules would give us an idea of what to expect - rather than always having to ask the same questions.
