PSA - Check the size of your saved games directory

Dunno if this is a known issue or not...

I am about to import an online league to participate in to the saved games folder. I hadn't checked on it since installing the game back in May.

Every single tournament I have entered along with the weekly season league is saved under this directory. That's 3 teams. 2 of which enter the 3 tourneys limit daily. Add it all up and I had 600+ folders eating up a sizeable chunk of disk space. Think it came to a total of ~15 GIGS I deleted in cleaning up that portal.

Yeah not sure if you're aware but there is a button under the "MAIN" tab and than "Perfect Team Settings" that will delete old files. It's halfway down the page on the right. That way you at least don't have to go find the file manually and do it all manually. I keep my stuff cleaned up weekly on Sunday.

Good luck out there on the field.

Cheers!!!

Does this process cover all three accounts or you need to do it for each user?

No idea for sure but gonna guess each user. As you can only get too that button thru login to your team.
As newer user(only 2 weeks now) I found it by accident.

Cheers!!!

It seems to do all three accounts, after I've deleted on one the other two do it in a split second.

Just happened to be a new guy who was looking and remembered seeing a button about deleting old files and it just clicked when I read this thread or maybe it was the thread further down the page about this topic, Can't remember now lol.

So anyway just figured I'd be useful around here. Build up some good karma so that when I need help with rosters and such someone might take some pity on me lol. Really new to baseball games/sims so expect to need some help and advice sooner or later.

Cheers!!!

Yeah, I posted something about about two weeks or so ago. My computer started telling me I had no space left and I could not figure out why. Took almost a half hour to delete everything. Makes such a big difference!
