Yeah, now I'm definitely not doing it.

Carlos, is that you?

Merged posts. Here was Del's helpful tip.

4. I sort both lists alphabetically so that the OOTP draft list is matched with the StatsLab draft list.
a. This is done because the StatsLab list contains the player ID #s, which are needed to import back into StatsLab. You can do whatever analysis you want in Excel but you need to have the player IDs attached to the players.
b. I keep track of the draft picks in the Excel spreadsheet and ultimately delete them from the list so that the only remaining players are the ones still draftable in StatsLab. That list would be in your draft order based on however you decide to list them.
5. Copy that spreadsheet to a separate CSV file and delete all info except the player’s names and ID #s. These are already in the order I want to draft them.
6. Go into StatsLab war room and import the CSV draft list ("Choose File" button) and upload the file into StatsLab.
a. Remember to save or you lose the draft list. And the imported file has to be a CSV file, not an Excel file.

Nelmsm has been PMd. Not sure how we want to do this.

The draft is June 16th. We are at May 2nd...so 6 SIMs away, or about a week and a half in real time.

I think we can do another week via forum post, but we need to move things along. We'll see how it goes.

Next week I'll upload all the players, enter the picks made, and off we'll go. If we have to push the SIM back a day then no worries.

I'm in Florida this weekend so my pick will be a little slow but I'll try to be ahead of it coming.

FYI, if you were trying to hurt me, it worked.

How many players will we be able to have in our Single A team after the Draft? 40?

I would think so but then it will need to be cut down to 30 within a couple Sims.

Thanks, that's what I thought too :)

It's on Davenport...

If you have a Top Two board, you could PM it to Brad/Matt and they could move it along whenever Nelmsm picks.

[Carlos]

We are waiting on Davenport, I believe.

I'm still up in the air on my second choice. I know who I want though.

If anyone sees a player on my roster they want I'll trade into round 1.

I forgot about Davenports post that they were having internet issues and would be down for a few days.

Can someone send a PM, email, letter, morse code, telegram or smoke signal to nelmsm?
