Markus question

Padreman · 01-25-2015, 12:10 PM

Hey Markus maybe this was already but currently Caribbean series is played by the champions of five leagues Mexican, Cuban, Purto Rican, Dominican Repulic and Venezuelan. They play In a round robin style. I know play-offs have. It really been touched much for this version but would it be hard to add round robin play-offs? No double elimination just beat record for the round robin wins the series

Markus Heinsohn · 01-25-2015, 12:18 PM

No, this is pretty complicated and won't happen in OOTP 16, sorry.

Padreman · 01-25-2015, 12:20 PM

Thanks for quick reply

Associations would be a good fit for recreating this sort of thing. Combine enhancements in associations with enhancements in customizable playoffs and the Caribbean Series becomes a possibility sometime down the road...

(One interesting roster rule that applies to the winter league playoffs and the Caribbean Series: clubs which advance are permitted to add several players to their rosters from eliminated teams.)

I believe the same roster rules applies to the Cuban league.

I only came across this rule when looking up past standings of the various winter leagues in issues of The Sporting News. I'm not exactly sure how they handle it (i.e. do the playoff clubs hold a sort of 'draft' to determine which clubs pick in what order?) but I find it a fascinating little roster rules twist.

In regard to Cuba, they do have a draft, but I don't know the order. It doesn't seem to be published, only the results are published, not the order and rounds guys are picked in.

Markus what are odds of is having the Ephus pitched added to the list of pitches? It was a part of history several ball players used it? And the Palmball it's slower than normal change-up and breaks more. Almost a hybrid between a breaking ball and off speed pitch?

And if I import my save leage and Continue it. While add all the small trophies to my current players and retired players manually?

And with the new awards will it screw up my current history award?
I use one as a Player of the Year another as Pitcher of the Year, Rookie of the Year and the custom one I have as closer of the year. But since the new game already comes with a reliver award will that mess my history of pass winners?

This happens in American Legion games, too (at least in MN, not sure about elsewhere).

They answered one question in this thread, you might have better luck in a different thread. They're probably not actively looking in threads for questions to answer.

Matt Arnold · 02-09-2015, 10:13 AM

We may add those pitches eventually, but they're not on our radar for the moment. I don't think they're used enough to justify it.

If you import, the little trophies should appear. They'll also show up for historical players, so you can view all of Hank Aaron's trophies when you go to his page.

The awards history is all there, but nothing gets changed. So the new "reliever of the year" award will have a blank history before import. And anyone who won a "batter of the year" award in 15 will now be considered to have won an "MVP" award instead - essentially it's like if you renamed the award in-game, and going forward you will occasionally see a pitcher win.

Padreman · 02-09-2015, 10:33 AM

So what will happen to my current custom award that I use for my closer of the year? Will that just be deleted?

Sorry I'll try bump again I know you gentlement are busy

Matt Arnold · 02-12-2015, 07:05 AM

Custom awards won't be deleted, but unfortunately the history will not transfer over. So the new reliever of the year award will simply have no winners from before the league is imported to 16.
