PSA: Share your fictional leagues as quickstarts!

With another great edition of OOTP now rolling out, I'll make a request to the community I've made in the past ...

SHARE YOUR FICTIONAL LEAGUES AS QUICKSTARTS!

There are tons of creative people here who no doubt come out with a lot of fantastic league setups with great concepts, logos, etc. Or those who have carried over the same league from version to version and have a setup with great history.

Sadly though very few quickstarts get posted on the mods forum, despite the fact that LOTS of other different types of content is always freely shared.

It would be a great benefit to the community to have a number of fantastic quickstarts available for download!

I know there's an appetite for quickstarts too, as I uploaded my fictional league (New World Baseball Union) in OOTP 17 as a quickstart and it was downloaded over 600 times! I also plan to put my money where my mouth is and re-release that league for OOTP 19.

For those who have never created a quickstart, know that it is VERY EASY. The hardest part is the actual creation of the league (which people do anyway!) Once you've made it, you might as well share it.

Here's how:

1. Get your league all set up how you like it.

2. Go to "File" in game and select the "Create Quickstart Game" option and follow the prompts.

3. The game will create a file name with a .quick extension. Take this file and upload it online to a storage site. I have used and would recommend mediafire.com (takes an email address and about 5 minutes to create an account)

4. Post the link to your quickstart on the mods forum:
