  • Upcoming Schedule - 1980 Offseason

    Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the BLB will resume play on Thursday March 29th, resuming our normal schedule WITH OOTP 2007.

    Offseason Notes:
    - Keep the DFA list clear of players unless you absolutely need to put them there. If you plan on releasing a player, outright release them, don't put them on DFA.
    - If you're waiting for a player to clear waivers to demote them, post in the waivers forum and I will complete the transaction for you. DO NOT IM me or PM me these transactions as I will likely forget.
    - Unless I hear otherwise, any player who's DFA time expires during a sim will be released. No exceptions.

    Here is a tentative offseason sim schedule:
    1) End of Playoffs to Salary Arbitration (mid Nov) - This will give people a chance to release Arbitration eligible players and decline team options.
    2) Salary Arbitration to Rule 5 Draft. The Rule 5 draft will be held at the end of this sim.
    3) Free Agency. There will be 5, 3 day sims over the course of a week. This will take us to the second week of December. HTML may not be updated during this time.
    4) Free Agency. Normal 7 day sims until Jan 1. The Draft Class will be published on Jan 1.
    5) Jan 1 to Start of Preseason (early Feb)
    6) Start of Preseason to Spring Training (early March)
    7) The rookie draft will begin in the forums at the start of Preseason.
    8 ) Spring Training will have two sims of 2 weeks each.

      Awesome! Thanks for the update, Andrew/Cam/Stu.

      I exported to 2006 last night.... is that a dead soldier? I just did a little tweaking with my roster... a couple extension offers and moved my waiver claim to the active roster.

        Yes, I'll be deleting those exports. The next export will be with 2007. I'll be posting a new league file sometime next week. (tuesday at the latest.

            No, we're done with 2006. No more exports with 2006. :D

            Like I said, I'll post a new league file (created with 2007) early next week and we'll go from there.

              Ok, so the league file that's linked as of now is worthless? Wait until you post about the new 2007 file? what if we have DFA players right now?

                Correct. The new 2007 league file will be at the exact same date as the current one so you'll be able to take care of your DFA'd players in your next export.

                  So, the first 2007 file will be from last day of the 2006 sim that just ran last night?

                          I imported the league file just fine into 2007. PRetty cool cuz you can see the head to head records from last year. I've also learned that I only have the 5th best starting pitching in the BLB.

                            Did it refer to you as the Windy City Bills?

                              I'm really liking the new game so far. Glad to have the head to head records back. Looks like nobody in the league had a winning record against me this season.

                              The strength overview is cool too. I've got the top starting pitching in the league. :D
