HOF Bug or Feature?

Bishop · 07-12-2006, 01:31 AM

Ok, here's my league setup. Standard MLB style setup starting in 1901.

I have the Texas League (AA) which is a child league of the MLB, however NONE of the teams are affiliated.

I've had two players that meet HOF criteria in the Texas League (standard default numbers). Upon retirement, neither one was inducted into the HOF.

Ex: David Wallace, 2335 hits, .346 avg., 9 time MVP, 5 time All Star, 7 time Gold Glove etc. Retired in 1921. It's now 1922 and no HOF.

Yes, I can manually induct him, but is the HOF only for Major League or International levels?

Thanks.

Yes. The auto inductions into the HOF is for the parent league only, if that's what you mean.

Hmm. Quirky, but ok. Off to the suggestion forum!

Ok, to clarify again from your post in the 'suggestions' forum,

This should -not- be happening then? 'cause I'm all kinds of confused.

I'm a little confused as well, so I logged this as TT # 2252.

We'll see what "the man" has to say.

I followed up with Markus on this, and he indicated to me that minor leagues do not have a Hall of Fame. In other words, the Hall of Fame that is visible from within a minor league is actually the Major League Hall of Fame.

Therefore, this doesn't appear to be a technical support issue.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Thanks,

Steve
