Will you permit me one follow up? It relates to my question number six and it's prompted by your responses.

It was my understanding that the Gambo/Spritze dbs had to replace the in-game stats folder, but you're making it sound like you can keep multiple stats folders/dbs around at the same time. So, my question is: I have a league that's a couple years in using the default folder. Given what Gambo said, it sounds risky to switch dbs. If I want to start a new league using a Gambo/Spritze folder, do I need to swap it in, play the new league for a while and then swap it back out to return to my existing in-game db league, and then swap again, etc.? Or, as action's response implies, can I some how keep them all around with different games/leagues pointing to different folders? If the latter is the case, how does that work?

Again, copious thanks. [I'm always amused by the debates that get going on these forums, but the truth is that I've mostly just found very helpful answers. They've made the entirety of what OOTP is capable of very accessible.]
Yes you can have different databases in different folders. Just have each leauge point to the right directory for that league under the league options. When starting a league point to the DB you want to use and the game will keep it for that league.
