button request: "Delete All Players" and "Move Players to draft pool"

spt72 · 06-02-2006, 12:06 PM

to be able to hand-pick historical players for your league (from various years), you have to create a fictional league, release all fictional players to free agency, delete them all (one by one), and then add the historical players from lahmen (one by one)......

Part of this process would be MUCH easier if there was a "Delete all players" button on the free agency screen.....

A problem also arises when, on the free agency screen with your historical (real) players, you have to assign them to teams and cannot draft them.
If there was a "Move all players to inaugural draft" button/option (or something like that) then we could draft all-star historical leagues.

I hope my explanations of that made sense.

Thanks,
shawn

I completely support this as I'm playing with doing a similar thing. Really I was just experimenting and imported 1901, 1920, 1940, 1960, and 1979 leagues and wanted to throw them all together and start playing in 1980.

It would be nice if I could just import all of the players from those seasons and have them replace the fictional players for the inaugural draft.

I figured that I'd just replace all of the historical leagues with random International leagues after I moved all of the players around.

Yes, I think from the perspective of someone who wants to use all-real players for historical all star leagues, the ability to erase all fictional players from the free agent pool in one button is vital.

Then we need to be able to import historical players either A) into the free agent screen and then send them to an inaugural pool or B) directly into an inaugural pool

Can we beg for these two features?

I would like to see this feature added as well. I like to run a solo league using fictional teams with real players.

I really need this feature, for some reason one of my leagues already has players before the inaugral draft, so I need to delete them all or the draft crashes.

Wouldn't this thread be better in the suggestions forum?
