98 I forgot do u add those yourself? might have been someone else.....I just finished the 1899 season and I am at 1/1/1900 I am going to switch all my logos over to CW logos and all my uniforms over to Gambo's new set. and make sure all my other info is correct, and let cheapskate Comiskey take over the White Sox( my great great grandpa has owned the Sox since 1882)

I got demolished in the 99 world series. 6 of my players were injured 5 HOF ers. I am gonna try to play out more games, but I may wait til Shoeless Joe comes in in 1912.

Well, it's 1917 and the Federal League never did appear. I think the game channels MLB all the way through if you let it evolve automatically. The first screenie is my league heading into the 1917 season. The second is an updated chart of league evolution (and yes, Cf76, I had to enter all those records by hand because the game does not update this chart automatically).

By the way, 45 years in this league with 4 levels of minor leagues. No problems so far. The only crashes I have had have come when I edited certain player histories within the game; for some reason, some player histories get so long or perhaps acquire corrupted characters so that as soon as you save them, the game crashes. For those player histories, I take note of the player ID's, find the corresponding text files, and do the updates in Notepad.

(One other thing specifically for Cf76 - you will recall how I was keeping an eye on my facial hair settings for you. The only time that I have seen them reset to zeroes has been when the game crashed as described above. If that changes, I will let you know.)

i am stuck at 1901, i have 9 leagues going. I am trying to find the time to update all the logos owners and such at 1901. but my Sox have done well 6 of 7 world series winning only 3. Cy Young cant seem to pitch in the World series.

Imma find out why i keep losing facial hair 1 of these days, so far through atleast 2 of my 4 leagues i use it in its ok i havent played my ABF in weeks.

Reading comprehension. It's an acquired skill.

I have the H.S> database in this time through and did not last time - that would explain my experiance with the Federal League popping up in a wierd way.

Heh. Thanks. To answer the question again, no, no crashes related to league longevity or size. But, I don't have international or feeder leagues, just four levels of minors. 46 seasons now, wow! I remember old versions of this game when my motherboard would be smoking and shrieking in agony.

Pure vanilla for me, right out of the box starting in 1871 and no frills; just letting the game/league evolve itself. I'm a bit disappointed because I would have liked to see the Federal league "popping up" or at least those teams added for a couple of years.

But buddy ur league is different from most of the rest. U dont use real players (which I am thinking about trying myself, someday)

Speaking of your league what are the all time leaders stats?
