Online league roster issue.

Alright, so I was absent for the last LNB sim, so I had my co-commish run the sim. When I downloaded the new file for this sim, the rosters are completely screwed. My star RF is the only name I even recognize in my organization, and he's in Single-A. The rest are people I've never heard of, and when I open their profile, their names change to Joe Unknown, and they have a series of dashes (----------) for a birthdate.

Any ideas?

Make sure that you both include the newest names.dat and retired.dat in each league file. When players retire mid-season, for example, it causes a shift in the names file and leads to this issue.

This worked!

Just an FYI; in the automator panel's league file settings, right next to retired.dat it says "only needed at end of season".
