OK, I remember now that I USED to have this problem years ago when I started exporting/importing. This problem only affects Human teams, since the AI will set up its rosters exactly the same anyway. Just check the box on your team's Options & Ballpark page to "Prevent any AI roster changes" and I think you will see that this rectifies the problem. I always have this checked now and forgot about why I did it in the first place.....

I think you smart guys know why I am crushed...
It reset my entire games service time, all leagues.....
That sucks.

You didn't back up your game?

BTW, Wolf is my last name. Just plain "Wolf" was already taken, so I put an article in front of my name. Really cunning, huh? Best watch yourself.

Paging Markus...Come in Markus...Would you mind adding a "D'oh" smilie to the smilie collection? I could use a double "D'oh" post right now. For now this will have to do:

The handle is not actually from the movie. It's from an ironic nickname that was slapped on me when I worked at a resort in the Canadian rockies many moons ago. While my surname is Jackson, I can think of at least two reasons for it being ironic: 1) While I did OK with the ladies, I wasn't exactly a Casanova or a Don Juan and 2) I'm actually quite slow, deliberate, cautious, and introverted which gave rise to my other nickname there: "turtleboy". Far more apropos for a slug like me.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

That did fix it. Will update my support ticket.

1967 is the year we got our own flag.

1982 was when the Canada Act (Constitution) was passed by British Parliment, ending all remaining dependance of Canada on the UK.

Thank you Bluenoser!

Hey America, your ignorance is showing! Unbelievable, the "education" you guys get about your closest neighbour and ally.

Probably more apathy than ignorance.

Easy for someone to talk about Americans education level when the only thing Canadiens are knowledgeable about is when the NHL season starts

The Canadiens are an NHL team based in Montreal. We're Canadians eh? Then again you may very well have been punning me given the NHL reference.

Hehe, as a Bruins fan, I'm used to spelling Canadiens like that. If you spell Montreal Canadians, you get equal amounts of grief

Or listen for the boos when Bettman takes to the ice to hand out the hardware. They're audible from anywhere in North America.

That sucks.

With the latest patch my Feeder Leagues are no longer accumulating service time and I just started by league so I haven't had the pleasure of doing that. Otherwise I'm sure that would have joined the list of oops I've made.

Well that is too funny as my online league heading into 1988 (draft based on debut years) imported your current 1988 ratings as:

Stuff - 10
Control - 11
Movement - 11

and your career potential ratings

Stuff - 17
Control - 17
Movement - 7

so pretty close! Well assuming we are using a 1-20 scale?
