WBC Issues

dtizzle · 05-11-2017, 10:28 AM

So when I started my league it began with the WBC with its default settings. After it was over I decided that I wanted to make it an annual tourney (instead of every 4 years),replaced a team (Zambia vs China) and also set up a separate Pseudo WBC with 4 other teams. My MLB season ended and now in the offseason. The Pseudo WBC has a schedule and I can see when it will chooses players etc. My regular WBC does not have a schedule. It is also has passed (2 months before) when it is supposed to choose players and the AI has not done this. My thought is because I tinkered with the settings after the original WBC (should've done it from the start) that maybe it still thinks its every 4 years? My plan is just to let it go and let the Pseudo tourney play out and see what happens in 2019. I have tried generating a schedule and it says "need to wait til preseason" so I will try that again. My fear is that if I do that they might fill them with fictional dudes. Curious if anyone has any experience with this or any answers. Thanks

Tournaments have 2 settings: frequency and start date. So if you just change the frequency, the start date won't change. Did you make sure to change the start date in the league settings to be appropriate? If so, it should schedule the events automatically to roll over properly.

Other things you can do is manually schedule/move the "pre-season start" event in your events page, which should cause it to rollover to the new "season".
