Simming Issues

wrb1990 · 07-24-2008, 09:59 PM

I tried to make a historical league starting in 1900 and I was planning on simming it to 2008 then actually playing.

Whenever I start to sim though, right at the begining of the season a message will pop up saying TEAM NAME has an illeagal amount of players or somthing similar to that. It seems to be random as it is some times ML teams aswell as MiL teams.

I really don't know what could cause this problem, I've tried using MiL ghost players, without ghost players, blocking fictional players, but nothing seems to work.

Any help would be welcomed, thanks.

Could you zip up your league files (the .dat) and FTP them up to us as per the instructions in the How To FTP Files to Us thread.

Try starting in 1901. That should solve your issues.

The AL did not exist until 1901 and there are weird things that happen if you start a league in 1900 as there are not enough players available to fill 16 teams since in actuality only 8 existed (the NL) in 1900.
