Ain't no way, I would try to do something like that.

I think I have done everything... and doubled and tripled checked some of it... completed the stadiums for the new teams... hope I'm doing the stadiums correctly... that is a little complicated for old EC.

I wonder if the weird foul balls are caused by the way I program the stadiums.

I will start the South Island season tomorrow.

Pelham Oaks
(special thanks to Lawn Loaf for the marvelous away jersey and both caps... Rainier 1 put Oaks on the home jersey and really did a super job... I think Lawn Loaf put Pelham on both jerseys... thanks to EC for the pretty darn good logos... I think the old fella did a nice job.

Eugene Church · 11-20-2021, 08:27 PM

St. Pete Pelicans
(special thanks to low for the great graphics)

Eugene Church · 11-20-2021, 08:29 PM

Moon Valley Dreamers
(special thanks to low for the excellent logos and home jersey and away cap... I did the away jersey to have Moon Valley on it... low put Dreamers on both home and away... I'm traditional... like away to be the name of the town... and usually gray in color.)

Braxton Bruins
(special thanks to DreamTeams for the wonderful graphics)
The lower case letters are really unique... don't think I have ever seen that done before... please note the little bear claws, too... that is a special touch.

Yeah, I'm not a computer programmer. If someone would want to create a template schedule that I could easily import, that's the only way I'd be successful.

Spectacular graphics for every team in your league. It's part of what makes this league fun to follow. The other half is your great writing and storytelling.

Eugene Church · 11-20-2021, 08:47 PM

Gull Lake Sailors
(special thanks to low for the great away jersey and the home jersey... I had to do the logos for some reason I can't remember... it might have been the nickname was different from Sailors... Rainier 1 did the home jersey for me... he put Sailors on it and did a wonderful job just like the Pelham Oaks... I think low used Gull Lake on both home and away jerseys)

Eugene Church · 11-20-2021, 09:02 PM

Littleville Supermen
(special thanks to EC for the fine work on the Supermen... I think the old fella is getting a little better on his graphics)

Actually I just got lucky and found the right images and it all came together pretty well.

Grin Hill Smileys
(special thanks to old EC again)

Did I go to far with Grin Hill and the Supermen?
Was that too corny?

Hope not... I've had fun with them so far.

I have been blessed to have some great designers do the work.
They make my South Island League and Islandian Pro Alliance very special and enjoyable... it is because of them that I get so immersed in OOTPB... it is 50% of the fun... Markus and the crew did the other great 50%.

Really enjoying opening day in the South Island Leagues... don't think I will be posting as often as before with twice the games to play.

It may take 2-3 days to play out the 12 games for the two leagues each weekend.

Have played 4 games in the IPA playoffs... and 4 games in the Supreme League... the animation looks much improved over OOTP21... far fewer glitches and flaws... and pretty nice and smooth in the animation... only one player ran in the wall... and that was just a little bit into it, not through it.

Don't see as many weird foul balls so far... and they seem to have cut down on foul flies... only saw one left fielder dropped a foul fly.

I was playing a game in Dodger stadium yesterday. One time the ball went through the wall to the back of the bullpen and the right fielder slipped through the fence and chased after it. That's more the rarity now rather then the norm. Don't see too much of that anymore.

I have seen it twice so far in 4 games... but I only use one stadium background for all my games... l like the rural setting of the default minor league stadium... I think the running through the fences can be stadium related.

SUPREME LEAGUE WELCOMES 6 NEW CLUBS
Maybe the more, the merrier... the South Island Supreme has been enlarged and doubled... it will have twice as much baseball as it did in its first two seasons... 6 new clubs have been added... one of the newcomers made quite an impression in the first Sunday of play... the Zebulon Zips put it on the defending SI Supreme champion Pelham Oaks 6-3... there were four games involving new teams and the original teams... the old members won three of them... Bar Harbor edged the St. Luke's Place Orioles 4-3, Moon Valley nicked the St. Dominic Saints in another squeaker 3-2... and St. Pete took care of the Kofa Kings 7-4... in the other two contests, oldtimers played oldtimers in one of them... Delta whipped Jackson 6-4... and in the other game it was newcomer versus newcomer... the Mystic Mariners disposed of the Guedon Gators 7-2.
