Expanded Roster Size?

[Orioles1966]

Just bought the game and preparing a League and don't see anywhere that it has expanded roster(rules section) capacity(more than likely Sept. 1st).


I am playing with no minors and reserve players.


I know that it can be done manually but I might forget too do it at the proper time.

Another thing I don't see is the teams numbered in the standings by sub league because I have large leagues and need too know the number of teams incase there is an odd number of teams.

Agreed. I just reported this in Bug Reports Forum. Always nice to know you're not alone. That way you're not seeing things...Maybe...

How do you do it manually? Sept. 1st rolled around in my game and every roster that could be was at 40. Ugh!

You change the player limit(see league rules) from 25 (or whatever it is) to 40 players and then change it back for the playoffs.


I always right down my leagues player limits incase something gets lost in the shuffle.


Plus I keep a copy of the league setup should something happen like a major crash.

But the settings are absent from the Rules page. So how do I do it? I'd love to keep my rosters frozen at 25 year round.

Let me check.


I am putting together too huge leagues plus importing MLB 1965 too spread the players to the current teams.

Update:I can't check right now because the draft is being held and it's taking a lot of time. I goofedby filling teams with fictional players and it removed players that were already on the teams. I thought it would fill the remaining roster with players?

Just as a point of reference, here's my OOTP18 Rules page followed by my OOTP19 Rules page. As you can see, I played with no minors and unlimited reserve rosters in both versions, but the dialogue/settings regarding September/Expanded Rosters is not there in OOTP19, so I can't set it.

[Orioles1966]

Yep-You're right.

My game is really running slow. It's been 90 minutes and the original fantasy player draft is only 27 percent complete.

You can change the active roster size on Sept. 1st .

On the Rules page? Or somewhere else?

[Orioles1966]

On the rules page. I have done it many times in the past.

There was a bug in a past game and that was one of the way's to fix it was to change it manually on Sept. 1st.

Ugh. It's Sept. 1st, 1902 in my test league, and the Rules page looks exactly the same as what I posted.
