It's not that I don't appreciate the work that goes into those projects.
No rerating as far as what I do goes..only Minor League stats updating as well as almost 5,000 free agents minors stats.
For those of you that's thinking about undertaking stats, here's what it takes if your doing it yourself.
About an hour minimum for each team depending on roster size.
If your doing an entire MLB organization, It can be done in about 5 hours non stop. 30 Organizations=150 hours. Limit that to 5 hours a day and your looking at 1 Month to finish just the complete Minors + another week to update the Majors with their 2012 stats.
Even then it's not complete..You've got to consider all the players that were released and are now free agents.
Once you got all that, there's the sorting of everything to get it to match ootp's requirements, double checking to make sure there's no erroneous data and replacing the team names with there IDs.
If that's not enough..here's the killer...If you make one mistake and don't immediately catch it..there's no way possible to be sure that any of the final data is correct.
With that said...any takers?? as I sure could use the help. Currently there's only 2 of us doing this. Just send me a pm and I'll set you up.
Thanks in advance.
Rod
