SIM DELAYED / OFF-SEASON INFO / CHECK IN

[Delandis]

I tried it too, and it converted fine.

[Carlos]

Just for shits and giggles I decided to import (in-game) My OOTP X BLB file into OOTP 11. All KINDS of errors. Players on the wrong teams, wrong year, incorrect stats...It was ugly. Hope you guys are having better luck.

Lies!

Stop spewing hate just so we don't convert.

Daily Update:

Testing yesterday and ran into another speedbump. Hang tight.

Is there any way in the future to perform a “dry run” conversion a couple of weeks before the actual switchover to a new version to hopefully identify any stumbling blocks that could pop up? I’m not sure if that’s feasible since I’ve never been involved in an upgrade process. I’m just curious if it’s even possible?

I actually did this sometime during the season and the conversion worked fine. I didn't try simming ahead though, which is where we're seeing an issue now.

[Matt]

78-84

What's the point of playing when you're almost $60 million short of the #1 team?

#1 - 89-73
#2 - 101-61
#3 - 86-76
#4 - 93-69
#5 - 94-68

#20 - 78-84
#21 - 70-92
#22 - 69-93
#23 - 78-84
#24 - 50-112

And I used to think some people were actually just better at the game than others. Like everything else in the world it all comes down to green.

[Jistic]

That's why you should cheer for me cuz we're the little guy. Only my superior GM'ing skills allow this ship to stay afloat.

[Sully]

One of the most important factors for me when voting for GM of the year is their operating budget.

There are quite a few teams in this league that have lost great players simply because they couldn't pay them their outrageous demands. Then, there's the silly OOTP logic that lets you get quality players at a huge discount if they're signed during ST or shortly after the season has started. It is all about the green.

[Lintyfresh85]

I disagree that you have to have money to compete. Over my nine years, we've averaged 72,665,773 per year in payroll (coaches/players/scouting)

That's hardly a top level budget, but I've gotten by.

Sure, you need some luck, but if you can catch lightning in a bottle, make a playoff run and rack up the revenue, you've got a great shot to make some real gains in profit.

[Pat]

Play the hand you're dealt, bitches.

[Matt]

Play the hand you're dealt, bitches.

After actually seeing your payroll all your banners will come with an * now.

I disagree that you have to have money to compete. Over my nine years, we've averaged 72,665,773 per year in payroll (coaches/players/scouting)

That's hardly a top level budget, but I've gotten by.

But when you had no money ($34/$38/$43 mil) you had no wins (50, 49, 39).
