Tried that already. See first post. Either the AI signs a bunch of guys I don't want/need (some of whom end up blocking my draftees,) or the game forces ME to sign guys. In either case, ugh.

2.) locking players in positions so the AI cannot touch them

Question on that: does that mean they don't get called up, though? That gets into the realm of having to micro-manage the minors--precisely what I don't want to do.

3.) changing the AI evaluation of talent

I've done that in plenty of different ways. There are probably a dozen or so threads from me about this from past versions.

It is an extremely complex game and you need to customize to make it work the way you want....you cannot assume the a game with this many options will work exactly the way you want it.

I refuse to believe that I should have to customize that game to make an advertised feature simply work the way it should.

My minors work fine! I spent a lot of time setting up the leagues the way I want them and everything works perfectly.

If you put no effort in...you will get nothing back....

I'm guessing I've put in more than my share of effort into OOTP.

Additionally, it is one thing to be frustrated and make a suggestion...but do not attack people and keep it civil....there is no constructive reason to be angry...just like there is no constructive reason to have that quote in your messages about markus...kind of cowardly shot especially since it is an "unnamed person"

if you cannot keep it civil don't post on the boards....

That quote has been there for years, and the two of us have had plenty of civil interaction through betas, previews, and the like. He's a big boy. He doesn't need you to fight his battles.
