"Strong" is an interesting choice of words.

[GeorgesGoons]

:

All teams were within 15 wins of each other. That’s a strong division. No weak ends.

And all were under .500

It appears I got pillaged. Some good AAAA fodder gonna get some playing time. All are guys I wouldn't have room for so I'm kind of excited to see how they do.

[TheGobOne]

File is still going and I have to head out, sorry for the delay but I'll get it done as soon as I can.

[TheGobOne]

File is up. Reports and S+ to follow. In a bit of a time crunch today so no news or signings.

- Waivers was set to short (my fault) so some teams had their recently signed guys move to their Active Roster. Minor league signings were moved to AAA. Apologies and next offseason I'll set a longer offseaons waivers to account for this long sim.

[Wasted Memory]

Thought I had a pretty good list of Rule 5 guys to draft. They either all got protected or I forgot to export. I'm betting I forgot to export.

[shel311]

Did we just sim 6 weeks of free agency in 1 day?

[GeorgesGoons]

Did we just sim 6 weeks of free agency in 1 day?

No, yesterday's sim took us to 12/25, this one to 1/04

[wdoupis]

Check again buddy, it’s 2/4

[Ry]

Did we just sim 6 weeks of free agency in 1 day?

Yeah, it was a time warp.

[wdoupis]

Had 7 guys favor offer after first sim, same for second sim and then we go 6 weeks and I lose them all and my season is over.

welcome to the club....we had Fryer's club type jackets made

Poops, nevermind. Probably should keep to the 14 day Sims. As much as I hate the off season it's only fair to do that for everyone. Now, if we can do 2 a day Sims at 14 days I'd be in favor as long as everyone exports

[TheGobOne]

Well my bad guys. I always thought this was one long sim. I had it in the schedule since the start of offseason and no one said anything. I guess this is something we can vote on next year. I prefer to get through offseason in a reasonable time but I understand the FA implications. Apologies.

[wdoupis]

No vote needed in my opinion. This doesn’t give time for free agency to function effectively. The off-season takes a week with 14 day sims, that is plenty reasonable.

[nick]

Ppl actually sign guys during these weeks? Lmao

[TheGobOne]

Ya, let me state. Going back to originally 14 days (1/2 a month) as I always thought this sim was long and was wrong. The vote to make the offseason faster as some guys like it....though that seems the minority. Again, my bad. Lessons learned.

If they keep bitching, hurt their best player in the first preseason game

[Whittness10]

It took me every sim of the offseason last season to sign Tony Lopez. I'd click on meet demand and he wasn't happy with it. Finally signed on the last sim before Spring Training. So yeah, I can see needing every sim to get things in line.
