I just sent everyone an email with the league start code. copy everything after Quick start code: include === before and ==== at the end. Check your spam folders. Sent around 8:00pm on Wed June 21.
This is a new league file and name, the old will not be used, probably best to delete. Open OOTP, click "Load Game" highlight the old name and delete.
New game is called "nsbl23real" go to "Quick-Join Online League" on the splash screen. Bottom right corner, before you hit load/continue. Paste that code in. Use the same password I sent before. Make a test roster change. Send FTP if you want. You can make further changes before we start the season.
Season start - this weekend is a bit too quick. We'll see how many files we have - but I presume it will be next weekend June 30? I think the first week is only 3 days. We'll sim game days Mon-Sun 7 days at a time, full series. I am out of town on a mini trip Sun noon thru Thursday.
If you have any trouble feel free to email, or post here. I believe I corrected some FTP settings that might have affected the earlier test for some. I hope this goes smoothly for all of you!
Injury setting has been adjusted per poll.
MLB draft starts Sun, Jul 9. I'm enjoying this college world series.

almost forgot. As a part of league start, please ensure your OOTP roster will match your spreadsheet roster status. Spreadsheet is the primary source. I suppose this thread can be used before league start and the regular threads for in-season changes.
We have a couple GMs over roster limits.
Please hold FA claims off until our first SIM weekend. We do need to adjust unowned teams as well.

Great work, Travis!
At first glance, it looks like the majority of my pitching/lineups/depth chart transferred over from the practice sim, so we at least aren't starting over from scratch.
Travis, you have saved one of the oldest sim leagues in the entire country. Phenomenal work. Looking forward to the season,
JIm

Quick tip that makes depth charts far less brutal...
Once you have your lineup set, click on "ACTIONS..." in the top right. Then you can select:
"Generate depth chart vs RHP/LHP vs. DH based on these lineups"
This option won't mess with the lineups you set, but will entirely fill in both your depth chart, pinch hitters, and pinch runners. Probably once I see how everyone is simming, I'll want to individually tweak some of these, but this is a great time-saver out of the gate.

Just sent updated FTP.
Do I need to post lineup changes here or send an email like we used to do?

It looks like I may have gotten my other league up and running, but this "Quick-League Join Code" clearly isn't working for me. It just freezes my program. Can the file just be sent via e-mail?

Maybe I'm just an idiot and someone can help me.
After doing the quick start code thingy, the league shows up in "saved_games" folder, but it does not show up in the actual game when I click "Load Saved Game." How do I get it to show up?

It looks like there's a zipped file in there that's 8,870 KB's. When I go to (I think) unzip it, it says that it can't because the file is empty.
Which one of you computer wizards want to take a trip to Nashville this week to get this set up for me?

John the full zip is around 400MB. It sounds like it created the destination folder but failed at some part of the download process. It started, but bailed. Here is the direct link. www.thensbl.com/nsblsimmer/public_ftp/incoming/league/nsbl23real.lg.zipTracy - no need to email changes at this point. Hopefully we can run this all via spreadsheet & roster ftp.

Which one of you computer wizards want to take a trip to Nashville this week to get this set up for me? Yeah you don't need to unzip it. I would delete the entire folder (nsbl23real) and then try your quick join code again. I'm imagining the download failed the first time and that's been hanging it up on subsequent attempts. It will take a little while for the download to complete so don't close the window or anything after you put in the code

I've deleted that file and tried the quick start link over so many times, to no avail. For some reason, my computer doesn't like that thing. I'll try Travis's direct link later. That's how we got it to work in MLBSA, so I'm more confident that I can get that going.

Out of curiosity what were we setting the injuries at. I had a few players on the practice sim that were injured with uncertain on return that were out for more than a month. I think I remember 60 days being mentioned. Do we need to start them on a rehab assignment or can we put them on our team when they are ready. Is there an advantage to one or the other. Is it completely up to us.

My computer shows "program not responding", but a properties check of the file itself will show if it is actually making progress. Took me 30 minutes to download the new file.

wow, 30 minutes is a long time. I think my file is 10 minutes, but I have a good internet and figured I had a fuller file set to send.
That manual file link will work all season if you find it easier to pull manually each week.
-- Injuries Settings: Short Inj Frequency = Normal (OOTP Classic) Long Inj Frequency = Very Low (reduced from our demo) Delayed Injury Diagnosis = Never (though still seeing some delays a couple days feels normal, not a week). Fatigue = Average Suspensions = Off. --I will still reduce 60+ day injuries to 60 days. If you are seeing a pending injury diagnosis over a week, we can adjust that as well.

Sweet 8 pound, 6 ounce baby Jesus! I got it loaded!
I went and made my active roster on there look like the one that's on the spreadsheet. I dropped a few guys because they weren't on my team on the spreadsheet. Didn't know if there was a set procedure for that?
Anyway, I submitted my team through the FTP thingy, so hopefully it worked. Later today I will sit down and figure out my actual opening day roster, then I'll be all set to go.

I think KC is all set. A couple guys aren't in the universe it seems (Justin Crawford, Nander de Sedas (college), Reggie Preciado).
