Anyone? No one's gonna jump to confirming they'll scramble MLB data too?

Okay, now this has my attention.

I have the fictional "Tokyo Thunder" in my major league, along with fictional minor league teams from Nagasaki and Hiroshima. I also have an expansion team starting this year in my majors, "Taiwan Explosive Go Salmon."

They gonna F up my league due to having Tokyo, Taiwan, Hiroshima and Nagasaki mentioned? I mean, they are just geographic locations - surely, they aren't copyrighted and subject to all this garbage now.

No. They should not as long as it is fictional and not matching any real team names from that league. I downloaded patch yesterday to test for the online league I am in. We are entirely fictional with an independent league based in Japan. We have a team in Tokyo but with the nickname Cannons and there are no issues with any of our teams or players - but we are 100% fictional.

Hmm. . . now that you mention that, I do have Sadaharu Oh as the first baseman for Tokyo. Guess I should change his name.

I would make sure to turn off any dynamic league changes for names/relocation. If for some reason it pops in a city and name that combine into a real one your entire league will get scrambled. Chances of that are pretty low, but theoretically could happen.

I think I am confused what the issue is? I am guessing that the Nippon League cut ties with OOTP and we can no longer use accurate names for the league? What about team names? in my EBL vs MLB dynasty, i folded the *** 2-3 seasons ago and the UBL has the Tokyo Giants & Yokohama Whales. One of the AAA leagues is called the Nippon League but all teams are city names, not the current real names. Did my league and teams names get changed in the last patch? I stopped paying attention to world news and only concentrate on league news.

I don't think that will be an issue, but its not like they gave anyone a chance to go into their leagues and change anything before the update happened. I wouldve gladly change the names of 6 teams to save 200+. Guess I should've been more creative in my baseball sandbox and not gotten lazy with those handful of teams.

Having accurate team names in my combined custom league made them scramble every single team. If they are in separate leagues only the league with those team names will be scrambled I'd guess. I had deleted *** 7 years prior and had a few real names in a custom world and it scrambled mlb, kbo, and all custom teams as well. In hindsight when creating a unified world league, I should have kept all leagues separate and used the outdated/never updated league association feature. My bad for wanting accurate HoF voting and managable/accurate world stats.

Tokyo Giants & Yokohama Whales were untouched as was the history of the ***. But I lost my Nippon AAA which is now South Africa and the *** history on my version of Shohei Otani (import not MLB version) is changed. So i take it i won't be able to change this back?

So I cant even say N1ppon on here either? or NpeeB?

I think I will take all Japanese teams and players out of my league. In my Canon they will become the new Germany and declared war on the universe and all Japanese players will be banned and I will retire them.

Just speaking generally as a developer, when one does a string match one generally is looking for the entirety of the string contained somewhere. So just adding, for instance, a symbol or a number at the beginning or end might not be enough to get around such a test; however, adding a symbol or number in the middle, or spelling it incorrectly (I’d say “using an alternative spelling” but there’s a chance that an alternative spelling would be in the list they’re screening) would stymie the search. TBH that sort of thing is hard to uncover even if you use RegEx.

Is this only affecting NpeeB or is Australia & KBO (i dont play any KBO teams or leagues) also affected? Also who is to blame? NpeeB or OOTP? Should i expect to lose my Chicago Bulls, Chicago Bears, Chicago Blackhawks & Chicago Wolves baseball teams?

They have a KBO license so they're safe. Couldn't speak to Australia, we don't know if this is going to lead to other non-licensed leagues being removed or not.

The only statement they've made is it was a com2us decision. We know Konami has an exclusive license to That League, but we don't know what actually went down yet.

KBO isn't safe if it's in the same league as not allowed material. Same with MLB

So not sure what happened with your league.

He never mentioned the MLB thing at the beginning, so I assume he just tossed that in for dramatic effect.

I think he had a *** named team in an *** city in his MLB. Expansion or something or just personal, fictional customization of MLB. Anyway, on finding said individual team, I believe the patch identified it as a league to adjust. He can clarify, but he isn't saying it for dramatic effect There was an extenuating circumstance where he explains how it happened more precisely in one of the threads somewhere. That's part of his complaint. Put the team in Capetown ... but why the whole league?

[PSUColonel]

MLB & KBO are safe. The others we don't know about.



EDIT: I am in no way saying other leagues will definitely be removed, but if they are, it won't be a good situation. I don't think it's a good situation now though, as to me, there is no point in having an international setup without Japan...but hey that's just me.

You're right. I had a league. Not ***. Not MLB. Not KBO. I transferred all the MLB and KBO into a custom league WBO because it's nice to look at real stadiums. ..made about 150-170 more custom teams. About 16-20 were in a Japanese division. About half I named after the old *** teams to keep some old flair. MLB,kbo, *** and every other league was deleted. Because all the teams were in one league, it scrambled everything. So about 5 percent of my league had *** names. Scrambled it all. It doesn't scramble specific teams, it chooses to scramble the entire league because I assume that's what's easier when trying to do this as fast as possible for whatever reason they won't discuss. I can screenshot but I'd assume that wouldn't be allowed and I'm not giving em a reason to ban me. It would be something easy for any naysayer to test but I'm sure they won't. Someone else said they did it to their entire AAA that was named for the banned league, but not everything else. So it's definitely a thing. I'm not posting all this because I lost a few teams lol. They destroyed hundreds of hours of personal work setting up this league. I started the process in 22 for testing and didnt even set it up and play a personal league until 23 due to testing out my worldwide league.

I've been quite descriptive of what happened to my league. Open up your personal MLB save and add a banned team to it. Make sure to delete the backup first because you assume OOTP is on the up and up lol that example of the other guys AAA issue is like 4 posts up lol sweet jesus

The official post says that Nippon is an unlicensed league, so my guess is there aren't any ties to cut. OOTP included them in the game w/o a license, and now Nippon wants their league removed.
