Yes, for the time being Hawaii is an independent kingdom. As for Canadians, the rules say that they're eligible for play in the U.S. league, though I could be persuaded that Canadians could play in the Dixie league as well.

I'll have to consider that.

I'll get working on transferring some folks to the league this weekend. The dollar format will slow me down some

Can I be a German born player in the Caribean league? There are many Germans who had buisness dealings in that area during this time so it is not totaly far fetched.
Also, is there a chance of moving between leagues?
Are you using deadball era stats? If so having a high HR rating will be pretty useless...

Should come out to 450 exactly
I hope I did everything right!

I also noticed a few oddities. I know this is your league, but a few things are just not realisitic.
First off, why is avoid k's 1$ the same as the other batting attributes? It is a fairly useless statistic.
It should be set by you for everyonce since in the deadball era strikeout rates were much much lower than any other period.
And bunting, why is that 1$? Everyone in the deadball era knew how to bunt. This should be set by you.
Finally, why is injury prone $10?
Should this be 0? Why should we have to pay for something that we are trying to spend nothing on?

Just some thoughts.
REALLY looking forward to this. I have studied this period quite a bit and if you every have a question or are looking for discussion, you can look here.

That's fine. Your player can join the Caribbean league when it starts up. Players will be able to move between the leagues, though probably not between CSA and USA leagues (at least not at first).

The creation method is borrowed from Metsgeek, who has run some very successful dynasties using it. Since the deadball era doesn't last the entire century, I think we'll find that the method holds up quite well over the long haul.

I'm glad you're enjoying the dynasty so far. I'm having a blast putting it together.

legendsport · 03-22-2006, 11:28 AM

Ned Monaghan was the top pick of John McGraw's Patriots in the draft, while Lem Gormley went to Oakland, where he'll battle for playing time in the OF with Cy Seymour, Danny Green and Patsy Dougherty under skipper Wilbert Robinson.

Just a note since I created the method a while back. It's set up to allow creation of players across all eras. If you want your player to be realistic for the era, you gotta spend the money to do so. I tried not to make anything free, even a prone injury rating. I think I changed it forthe guidelines for my PLAGUE! dynasty, but I increased the cost for Normal and Durable. One other thing of note...
