Diamond 379 - Season 12 - 2030 (Mini-whale Feeder)

Dunzie · 02-18-2019, 12:40 PM

And here we go!!!

Unfortunately and sadly seems a couple from the list didn't get in. Not sure if it was a settings issue or friend list needing updated?

However for the most part looks like a good group. A couple currently over the cap slightly. If you're reading this and it could be you... it could be you... please have a look.

Best of luck in the 2030 season everyone!! CHEERS!

The Titans are checking in after relegation after a horrible season last year. Looks like we're off to a slow start again.

Good luck everyone, looking forward to competing with some of you again, and some of you for the first time.

Wrigley4lab · 02-18-2019, 03:59 PM

What a rough start. Best of luck to all and thanks for organizing this league.

Matt Arnold · 02-18-2019, 04:35 PM

I'm gonna call us the mini-whale feeder since hopefully a couple of us will get "chosen" to be promoted to the perfect league next year. Good luck everyone!

Will_L · 02-18-2019, 04:51 PM

Old Timer, are you ready to throw a bunch of one run games to the Corsairs again?

Glad to see we are in same division!
Good luck to everyone!

BoofBonser26 · 02-18-2019, 04:52 PM

Bandits checking back in, with a few tricks up our sleeve if the AH co-operates tonight. We'll be better than .500 this year, I can feel it. I doubt we ever get "chosen" but our aim is to make you earn your promotion.

Dunzie · 02-18-2019, 05:01 PM

Chosen... lol...

If you have kids from the Toy Story era you’ll get it.

Get back up here my friend. You are missed.😁

I'll see what I can do. You'll be happy to know I remodeled my band-box just for you. Unfortunately my hitters are protesting and have hit .228 for the year. They've been warned now, the yelling will start soon.

On the plus side I'm 2-2 vs. LHP this year, which is about 2 more wins than I had all of last year.

And apparently we've developed a rivalry with one of Matt's teams while I was at work. We've had two bench-clearing brawls in the first inning 2 of our 3 games. Maybe I need to move the Big Unit back to my rotation.

stl jason · 02-18-2019, 08:42 PM

after seeing the 1-4 start posted earlier this morning, I wasn't expecting a lot from my boys to start the season....

but they've managed to even things out at 9-9, so can't complain too much....

side note... anyone else having issues with file/image attachments? Tried to upload a screenshot in a different thread like I've been doing on my dynasty thread, but the image won't attach....

joehart · 02-18-2019, 09:13 PM

thanks to all the folks that post regular standing updates. Very appreciated....

Bellevue KnuckleBallers - trying to maintain our .500 record and maybe do better against the Toronto Gold Devs this season.
Our Knuckleballer limitation is really a big pain when Niekro/Wood/Dickey go through cold spells and decide that every game should have lots of HRs.

Renton Warriors - the team from my 9 year old who was relegated from Perfect League. Together with his brother (Perfect mini-whale league), they are investing their hard earned snow shoveling money into upgrades. Hopefully by mid-week they will finally agree and decide to pull the plug on their upgrades.
At this point, they are reviewing every team and making notes about players (….and I thought I spent too much time looking at stats).

Good luck everyone....

Matt, have you heard back from Andreas? My logo reset to the logo in the standings posted above this morning. As a test I went into custom team design and selected a logo straight from historical logos. It shows in my standings, but not for anyone else.

The_Savage_1 · 02-18-2019, 10:04 PM

Hi all, your lone Aussie rep here. First time in diamond, FTP, never won a trophy, so hoping to be competitive.

daves · 02-18-2019, 10:39 PM

Great. The Flying Squirrels are my team based on rewards. Never expected to make it to Diamond level. On top of that I am in the same division of the Titans!

Will_L · 02-18-2019, 10:42 PM

Someone do me a favor and pull the hose that's running from the exhaust pipe to the Corsairs team bus window, they're sucking fumes LOL

Very strange. Here is what I see.
Do you want to upload your current logo here and I can try to test it with my two logins here and see if it also fails on my end.

I'm surrounded by animals this year - I've got Flying Squirrels, Gutter Cats, Lynx, and also a Lynch Mob. I think I should be the one nervous!

Thanks for the help. STL Jason tried that and it didn't work. The P logo I used is straight from the select logo screen under the customize team tab.

joehart · 02-18-2019, 11:30 PM

I tested your logo with the Knuckleballer team (you should see your logo in the standings). I saw it when I logged in via Knuckleballers and my sons Renton Warriors team.
Here are the steps that I took....

1. customize team design, then advanced settings.
2. loaded your logo as the Secondary logo (via select option).
3. clicked both
- "Update this team's pictures NOW"
- "Request picture update"

then clicked OK in bottom right corner and hit "submit team".
If you load your logos too close to the next simulation, things may go back to default. So give yourself time before next simulation kicks in.

After submit, I went to MAIN | OOTP start screen and logged off.
Then I logged back in.

The logo seems to show (I hope also on your end).
I can't test if it re-sets to something else but I will give it a try on Sunday->Monday.
