Minor League affiliations

[spot]

I created a league with 48 teams (2L*2D). I then added 4 AAA's, 1 AA, 1 S_A, 1 R and 1 WL. I manually assigned each AAA to a parent club (1 league per division) and set the layout of each level differently (ie, some with 1 league w/ 3 divisions, 2 league w/ 1 division each, etc.) Some ML clubs have more than 1 affiliation with one level and none with another level. Each minor league team is affiliated, but it isn't uniform across to ML. I kind of like it, but it doesn't seem like it should happen this way.

You have the freedom to set up your minor leagues any way you want. If you want to give teams several affiliates at a given classification level, you can do that.

While the one affiliate per major league club per AAA, AA, and A level system is common now, in earlier years this was most definitely not the case and some major league teams did have two or more affiliates at a given minor league level.

Fair enough, I guess that is reason enough to make it appealing. I was just surprised (being what is normal today) that the creation AI would not default to one per team per level. I just assumed it would, but as I said I actually like it. It may have taken me a while to attempt it otherwise.
