That's why you have a lot of consternation with this game. It gives you the ability to change so many things, but half the time you're afraid to do so because you have no idea what other parts of the game you're throwing out of kilter.
He's asking about a couple of prospects that get released every year, not the disappearance of his entire rotation. And the game, help files, manual, and popups can hardly be expected to account for every scenario one can imagine that the user sets up or imports or changes in some way. AFTER a report of results and possible solutions are discussed then, if reasonable, a change can be presented to the GUI or to the manual, etc..

Now before you decide to beat the "so we're all just beta tester" drum, let me say yes, we are, in the sense that issues of these kind come up, as it has here, are discussed, and people who have had experience with them do their best to interpret why it occured and what they did about it. Is it right to say both the issue and the answers are correct? Not at all. We, in fact, may be missing something altogether, but we're talking about it until we do know. We're suggesting possibilities. The OP is suggesting an issue with a symptom.

While I respect literally ALL of your contributions, Craig, this one has to be focused on your first four words: If this is true. I throw this out there now before the line forms behind you inadvertantly, so don't take it personally. Thanks, as always, for the input.
