Unfortunately, I was very wrong about one segment of the new one I was writing since a player I featured in it was already accounted for in his youth experience. The funny thing is that I already had documented that he came to the CBO from a different league. However, with two different Word documents and an Excel doc of about 30 sheets, there is a lot to search and find sometimes. I try to make my documents intuitive, but it has become MASSIVE! I need to make an index or something!

Anyway, I found in my dynasty that I had covered him before and he was listed as an alum of the Quincy Youth League (now a part of the BYDL in 2300), not a part of the Original 10 that I was covering. Oops. That's why I scrapped the project for now, thinking I need to populate the Alumni section, especially for the first couple of rounds of the 2296 Inaugural Draft and to an extent for the 2296 Rookie Draft, too.
