**CubbyFan23's MLB/AAA Release and Discussion Thread** - Page 7

Hey CubbyFan! Great work! I really appreciate it...this is way too much fun.

I've run into a schedule problem, and I know nothing about schedule files or how they work so I figured I'd bring it up here before I went snooping around the file. I played out 2006 with this set and it worked perfectly, but when the game turned over to the 2007 season, the schedule was very messed up. Here's a list of the events for 2007 (to the best of my memory):

Preseason Starts Feb 07, Spring Training Starts March 07, Regular Season Starts April 07, Trading Deadline July 31 07, Ammy Draft Jun 07, Regular Season Ends 07, All Star Game July 08.

As you can see, there was no 07 allstar game, no playoffs, no free agency period, no arbitration period, no winter meetings, etc. And the 08 Allstar game was listed for the 07 schedule. I haven't turned over to the 08 season yet because I'm wondering if there's a way I can get the playoffs, FA, Arb, and winter meetings back for 07.

Anyone else experience this problem? Do you know what it could be? Thanks

Yep this happens with mine too. I can't remember if it's a bug in the game or if there's a bug in the schedule. Cubby, did you figure out what was causing this?

mastapj · 08-18-2006, 08:30 PM

Cubby, you fall off the face of the Earth?

Thank You for your help. Now all I need is the player photos.

I am in my 4th season as the dodgers, and overall the roster set is great, but there is one or two things i noticed. Firstly, the Marlins have won the world series 3 years straight, and players like Soriano and Andruw Jones seem to end up as free agents not asking for much money (about a million for one year), and being slightly underated.

Its been great fun though, is there anychance you will ever release one as a quickstart or template?

Quickstart should be pretty easy to have, just save the game as a quickstart after you open it the first time.

Raidergoo · 08-20-2006, 12:24 AM

I thought I would say that the number of things right is about twenty times greater than the number of things wrong, and I've had some major fun playing this stuff the last two days.

Much thanks!

westendcards · 08-21-2006, 04:03 PM

I remember there was some talk that this set would be released with mlb-a without the lower minors. Did this ever happen, any word?
Thanks

These rosters are terrific, but sorely outdated. I've actually updated them to the current 25 rosters, but obviously I cant release them.

Heres to Cubby's next release!

Are they outdated or are they exactly what they should be for someone starting a season at the beginning of 2006. They are what they are Opening Day rosters, because the players weren't all on the teams in April that they are now, so why should the Yankees for instance start with Bobby Abreu?

CubbyFan23 · 08-21-2006, 06:56 PM

I'm still alive guys!

Moving into a fraternity house is a busy time at the beginning of each semester so I haven't had much time to do anything the last week or so since the last release. I have all of the AL teams aligned right and have to finish off the NL soon and will release that set, and then re-rate.

I'll try to keep you guys more updated lately -- but it's been a hectic week of drinking and partying.

mikev · 08-21-2006, 07:12 PM

You know, I bet you could just release them now.

Nobody really cares about the NL.

mgom27 · 08-21-2006, 07:17 PM

Why can't you release your updated 25 man Rosters because you can't edit the Standings/Stats to as of today!

Good to hear you got some time off. Blowing off steam is healthy!

neojonas · 08-21-2006, 11:26 PM

Can't wait for this update! With updated minors and ratings this will be exactly what I'm looking for to start my new dynasty. Thanks for your hard work! And I'm glad you're taking some time to enjoy life...

GoldenGlove · 08-21-2006, 11:26 PM

Cubby,

Have you fixed the issue with the Indians GCL team?

You clamored for this in my Baseball Mogul roster thread, and I still don't understnad why you want this.

Both my rosters and cubby's rosters are meant to start in 2006.

Michael Jordan played ONE, count em, ONE season in the MINOR LEAGUES, 12 YEARS AGO.

JOHN KRUK RETIRED 11 YEARS AGO.

Guidokid · 08-22-2006, 08:23 PM

hey haven't you seen battists new rule about being mean to each other, you should be nice to that last poster.....even though he is whacked out of his skull to want John Kruk on his team

I don't see how I was being mean. I was asking to explain why he wants players who haven't played in the majors, and players who haven't played in 12 years to be free agents in a 2006 roster.

mgom27 · 08-23-2006, 10:11 AM

Now these Rosters have Tino Martinez and so on the Free-Agent Market that are retired at the moment that haven't offically retired yet because your offically retired as a Player or Pitcher when go into the Hall of Fame meaning you can't comeback and play in the Majors again because they could decide to sign with another team so let say Rob Dibble wanted to sign with the Reds he could unretire to do that.
