Self-created draft pools moving around - Please stop!

eMLBCommish · 04-23-2024, 08:22 AM

Hi guys,

For many versions of the game now, I have created draft pools of my own for my baseball universe. It's literally a full-time job for me, but one that gives my online universe so much zest and appeal for the storytelling that I do.

Well, nothing irritates me more than OOTP moving my pool around.

Example:
I'm in 2029 in my eMLB Universe. I have a 25 Round Draft coming up, so I essentially need 800 players. I meticulously put together my pool under my league parameters and have 810 players ready to go after months of preparation.

The day of the Draft Pool being announced.... 141 Players say "Naw!" and move to later years.

Is it at all possible that OOTP could kindly consider giving a Commissioner the option of making a Draft Pool static, so that players go when they're supposed to?

This nuisance adds 4-6 hours of additional editing to me every 6 months. That's near half a day I want back from OOTP every year for something that I don't want it to do.

I understand I could be in the minority here, but I can't be the only one who manages draft pools to the level that I choose to.
