Does just about every other text sim out there count?

http://www.wolverinestudios.com --> Gary Gorksi and Shaun Sullivan
http://www.greydogsoftware.com --> Arlie Rahn and Adam Ryland
http://community.sigames.com --> All sorts of guys with a presence on that board
http://www.ootpdevelopments.com --> Markus Heinsohn and Andreas Raht

Should I keep going?

That documentation oversights may occur is not surprising to me and much more tolerable than the errors from the behemoths. However, in this case, perhaps there was no oversight. Perhaps Solecismic was essentially hoping to create two incompatible products - makes sense.

And then, for the coup de grace - you "don't even remember" if TCY was installed? With that, the credibility train left the tracks and we're left with a pile of twisted metal and box cars everywhere.

The IFL had been using TCY draft files for a few years (6 or 7 drafts), so we're talking about something that has had a tremendous effect on the league, especially if this was the case in FOF2k4 as well. Seriously, who would ever expect that having TCY installed on the same computer as the one you're using to import drafts would make a fricking difference? And FYI, no, I don't have that outdated game installed on both computers I own and use to play FOF.

If Jim wasn't going to put hardly any effort into the whole TCY-->FOF system, then he never should've attempted it in the first place. It sucks, it has always sucked, and everybody but 2 or 3 people knows it.
