I think I'm going to have to add some more for the latter years. Are you going to send folks off to war like I did? If so, I have some recommendations when you do it.

Hurkman · 12-17-2005, 05:15 PM

Go ahead, the more the merrier, so add some into those later years. Yeah, I was thinking about sending players off to war, so any tips you can give me would be great.

Ok, all the numbers add up, but Gut, I'm going to assume you want Ludwig's birthdate to be in 1888, not 1898, since an 8 year old pitcher may not be all that solid

-Also, I'm going to put his debut year in 1907, as we already have someone for 1906. If you want to move his birthdate up another year to 1889, that's fine.

Oops. Math was never my best subject. Make it 1889.

Couple of problems with the last two players entered. Lurksalot, you have 65 down for power, but you have 80 listed where you say how many points you used for it. The numbers add up with 80, so just let me know about that.

Icy, you're 10 points over for your total talent, and you have eye listed as your 2nd specialty, but it's not the 2nd highest talent, as per the rules. Just get that fixed, and it'll be fine.

Sorry about that. 80 is right. I just didn't erase the original number that was up.

Black Lightning, two problems. We've already got someone signed up for 1906, and the earliest date is 1908, so if that's ok, just let me know. Also, you used 520 points, so you need to take 20 points off of your player.

Nice one! I was about to add, if anyone wants to put in historical players from the Negro Leagues, Japan, etc, I don't mind lifting the year regulations on them, since you know, they're historical and all.

Sir Lurksalot · 12-19-2005, 08:35 PM

It was difficult to decide what stats of his I wanted to whittle down since I started him at 617. I think he would have had better gap numbers because of his speed. My other guy is a Negro Leaguer too, just not quite as well known.

Hurkman · 12-22-2005, 04:30 PM

Stuart Adamson has been placed into the 1904 draft pool. I forgot to say this with Clive Woodstock, so he was obviously added as well in 1903.
