Playing Same Game on Two Computers

Does anyone play OOTP on two computers, with the same game? I'm upgrading my desktop and that will be my primary computer but sometimes like to use my laptop because I have to "watch" ;-) the kids when my wife is shopping.

What's the best way to save the game on one computer but be able to play it on two? Network? Portable HD?

I would assume any external storage should work.

It's slow no matter how you try to transfer the league file

I use team viewer now and can play on any computer I own as long as the source computer is connected. I've really enjoyed it.

if the base league files are already on both PC's, I enable the online league functions, create an online league file, move it to the other computer and do a manual update. then disable online league functions before continue playing

I've used Dropbox to do just this and it's worked out well.

I've done this a couple of ways. First, i have one of those personal cloud drives. So I just copied the save game folder to the cloud and then to the other computer when I was ready to switch. After a few seasons, though, it takes awhile.
The other thing I did was buy a 16GB flash drive and configured OOTP to use the flash drive for game data. That way, I just plug and unplug at will. The downside to that is that the game runs slower.
I never thought of doing Jazz's way. I'm intrigued. I've never touched the online side of the game all these years, but I might have to look into that one.
