Cato question re: changing award names

phenom · 01-31-2005, 10:38 PM

I'm changing the names of my MVP and Cy Young Awards to be named after two of the greatest players ever in my league, TUBF.

I'm wondering, though... will this have any adverse effect on Catobase?

no

so it looks like you just need to add 'award'

I did.

They are the Mooneyham Award and The Hughes MVP Award.

Thanks.

dola,

so, for instance, after this season is done and I update Cato, it'll show "Cy Young Award" winners until 2004, then "Mooneyham Award" winners in 2005 (year I changed it)?

I don't think so. It will have the same name for the entire history of the award.

hmm...

I guess I'll have to run a test at the end of the season.

Or better yet, fire up a test league.
