Career Leaders Question

icvu42 · 04-30-2005, 11:59 AM

I created a fictional league. Each team only plays a 60 game season.
I was looking at the almanac, and in the career leaders section, I saw it takes a minimum of 2000 AB's to be considered for the career batting average. Is there a way I can go in and lower that number?

Thanks.

Nope, not possible.

That works out to about a 10-11 year career, which I would think that any great player would have. It sucks that you can't change it, but at 2000 ABs over 10 years, I think it'll help weed out the 4 and 5 year wonders.

That's a good point. It's not too big a deal since it only involves two categories, batting avg. and ERA.

Another question.... I am about 18 games in, and my record books are blank, eben the single game records. Will this stay blank until the end of the season, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

No, they should be filled at the end of the season, but I thought that they would fill game by game. Lemme check something.

Just ran a test, and they should be filling in as you go. Try clearing the recordbooks and see if that makes a difference.

Ok, this is strange. I cleared the records, played 2 games, and there were still no records. I cleared again, played a game, and the records were there!

Perhaps there are required minimum performances for records to register? For instance, at least 4 hits or 5 RBI's?

Did you run the mouse over the almanac fields? I know it's a weird question, but I once had a little bug where the names didn't show up, but you could run the mouse over them and click on them to bring up the player page.

OK, I think I figured out the problem. When I finish playing a game, and the box score report comes up, my game always crashes. It doesn't bother me because I open up the game, and the standings and stats are all correct. The time I got my records to come up, the game didn't crash.

So here's the thing, I check the record book, and my catcher is leading the league with 30 hits. The record shows in the stat book. I play my next game, he gets two hits. At the end of the game, the game crashes. I open the game back up. When I go into my team stats, he is credited with 32 hits, but when I go into the record books, it shows he has the record with 30 hits.

So I guess what I need to do is figure out how to stop my game from crashing. I never had any problems, until I downloaded 6.12. After I downloaded that version, the game would crash in the middle of the game. So I re-installed 6.11. Now the game crashes right after the box score comes up. Any advice? I guess I should also post this in the tech support section.
