Never said midnight. The game will go out when we've finished all our testing and whatever else we need to handle before release. It should be released sometime between morning and evening Eastern time.

Will this version address the multitude of questions on setting up/utilizing a feeder system. The reason I ask this - in one league I set up the players drafted reflect their college/high school team in the draft log - in the other league that information is blank, it just shows college or high school does not reflect team. Not sure if I am missing a step - but why would one contain that information and the other setup not?

You can bet your boots on that. Always is, but as the game becomes more popular, this place gets crazier on release day. It's all good though - right Markus?

As was mentioned earlier, don't get too attached to your first MLB game. The rosters are changing everyday. Heck, I hope I was able to get the Marlon Byrd and Alfredo Simon signings into the GM build for tomorrow.

Since the official 2016 OD rosters are far from set IRL, I would honestly wait until we release the official OD rosters, probably a few days after the official start to the MiLB season.

Yeah, I'll just start a current day to check out ratings and stuff. Then get a 1920 or so rolling.

It will be released just as you sit down to lunch at a nice restaurant.

you're right! Seems like that is an unwritten law of the universe or something.

All we can do is wait ... and wait .... ah, it'll be great when it finally get here. And THANKS to everyone who helped in anyway to get this game finished. We applaud your efforts, just as we'll drool over the labors in the coming days.

I'm a little confused with the language for the pre-order bonuses.

It states we are receiving an additional Steam key once the game is released. Does this mean we are getting two Steam keys or does it mean we are getting a non-Steam key plus a Steam key?

I believe, if you preordered, you will be able to download the game tomorrow and register it using the (non-Steam) code that was provided when you preordered. Then, on the official release date, when the game becomes available through Steam, you'll get a code to download the game through Steam.

They said afternoon EST, so you might be in luck, but you also might have to wait unfortunately.

I do the exact opposite. I screw around with current RL leagues about which I couldn't care less for a month or two, learning the changes in the game. Then, after a couple of patches, it's back home to the 19th c. for me.
