Thanks. My solo league using the above technique has reached 1973 and all thus far has gone well. My Negro Leagues sat separate from the main league and starting in 1947, I allowed Negro league players to join the major league and slowly fazed out the Negro league teams and eventually the league. One major drawback to this approach is that you loose the Negro Leagues within the game itself. You can however, publish the league hostory and save the HTML reports for reference.

One issue I'm having is that as I have begun adding players from a previous solo league as rookies in this new league (this league is a historical reboot of that OOTP 6.5 league) I am finding that when I replaced QuestDog's names.txt file with the default version that ships with OOTP, a large number of my players last names get changed to "Unknown" or different names. To have to go back and fix a large number of names to use the default names.txt file is going to be major issue, but something I hope to do in the 80s. Anyone ever run across this issue and have a suggestion? I plan to post this question in the Gen Discussion forum as well.
