Just got CatoBase working and...

[DamnYankees]

It seems great. I love the win shares. I wish I could go back and have it run on the previous 25 years of my league, though. Guess I'll start a new one.

Anyway, just a question. Is it supposed to take an hour every time I finish a season for CatoBase to run? It takes forever making the individual player opages, going one person at a time. I'm not really complaining, just wondering if this is how its supposed to be and is there any way to speed it up.

Creating the .html pages takes a long time, as there's ton of data being processed. But if you're importing multiple years all at once, you can wait until you're done importing to create the .html.

Outputting .html for 29 years for me took about six hours.

How do I import multiple years all at once? Is it possible to just play a year, import it, play another, import it, etc. for 5 years, then output 5 years at a time? Is importing the stats enough for me to save them and move on the the next year?

Same way you import one. Yes. And Yes. It's a huge time-saver.

But I recommend backing up your league right after every postseason in case something gets screwed up. And if you fire a manager every now and then, your managerial registry will look a lot cooler.
