1911 FOOL-H Off-season

[Young Drachma]

I don't know if the memo never got communicated or if people just haven't bothered to update yet or what, but 9 of the teams came up for files that were wrong version.

You can download the patch from here. I'm not going to hold up tonight's sim as a result, mostly because it's only a sim to the start of FA and it's likely people just didn't have exports.

But I just don't want people to get screwed come FA time, which begins once I upload the file tonight.

So patch your game. K THX.

Ugh, I missed that I needed to re-do my file with the patch. Not a huge deal I don't think, just some minor arbitration issues.

[TimGuru]

I was lucky I did, because I went from one super 2 guy to 4. All would have been sorely missed if they had gone to FA.

Then again, all have been on my team the past 2 years while I have been sucking wind....maybe they AREN'T key contributors.

[JetsIn06]

So yea...I patched and now something is VERY screwy with FOOL-H. When I load up, half of my team are Joe Unknowns and if I go anywhere other than the manager page, it crashes.

Solo league works fine.

Maybe once you patched, you needed to download the latest file that was on the server?

A ton of Joe Unknowns sometimes is a sign that you don't have a complete file or it is corrupted in some way. Try to re-download it and see if it cleans it up.

[gstelmack]

Ugh, I wanted Collins, but once again the deep-pocket Yankees beat the Red Sox with a larger offer. They are EVIL I tell you, EVIL! Bad for the game! Boo!

[TimGuru]

The deep pocket Yankees finally wised up and broke the bank for a pair of guys we wanted, especially Collins. I had an offer ready for him, and hit "+1million" 4 more times, then twice more after that.

[EddieK]

Haha! We tried for Collins too, but next to the Yankees offer Eddie Collins told me that I was quite the comedian.

[Young Drachma]

File's been up for a bit. I got distracted.

[buckinbranco]

As of last night there is no patch for MAC. That is why I haven't exported. Hopefully there is one today.

I downloaded one the other night that must have been taken back. Don't know how it happened but there was one available on the patch page Friday night.

Best I can tell, the mac version had to be taken down to work out an issue where people were having it unlicense itself. I'm hoping it'll be back up soon.

[buckinbranco]

Yes, I have heard there was a licensing issue.

File is up. Season is Wednesday night!

[Alan T]

Thanks DC for the sim.

Just at first glance, I got a few of the people I was looking for here in the draft.

[Montreal_GM]

Ahhh I forgot about the draft again.

Same here...

First four picks = SP's

I know I need pitching, but that's a bit ridiculous!

I actually wouldn't mind trading for a young pitcher that is perhaps 2-3 years away from the majors and could be a decent starter if you have any extra. I seem to only draft hitters, so I have a ton of good ones and no where to put them.

Lets talk!

I'm on it!

[spleen1015]

I forgot about the draft, too. Luckily, I drafted a pretty good CF.

[ekcut]

I got my 2nd and 4th on my list and five draft list players altogether...I am very happy with the draft!
