Fictional Setup Question

PSUColonel · 06-15-2016, 12:47 AM

Is there an easy way to play with all of the league structures (MLB & INT Leagues) and have all fictional players and staff? Doesn't seem like an easy thing to accomplish for some reason.

Couldn't you just do a 2016 QuickStart. Release all to FA, delete and then fill all leagues with fictional?

How can you mass delete all the staff?

You can't "Mass" delete staff, (been asking for this for a while) but you can release all and fill with fictional. Takes a few minutes but delete the real ones and create a bunch of extra fictional so there's some in the pool.

This is about the only slowdown, not having the "Mass Select" option for pers. Other than that, it's easy.

Start a fictional league and manually put in all the MLB team names including their minor league affiliates? I did this once to test an expansion schedule and playoff format. You can still set everything to MLB rules. The only problem is you don't get MLB's history.

Stupid question, but on the fictional setup wizard to the center of the screen you have the ability to select and create a fictional league with using the MLB template. I know it creates the 30 team mlb and all the minor leagues and utilizes all fictional players with an inaugural draft.

Could you create the MLB and the minors using that and then somehow add the independent league template after creation?

yeah, have the wizard do the larger mlb setup (assuming), then once you get to team select, click advanced setup.

you can add another league - I do not think you can use the wizard for the "2nd+" league, though.
