Everything worked fine for me. My password was reverted back to the original but that was an easy fix.

My contracts are ok, hell my total payroll is a little over $15M.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #51 on:** April 22, 2015, 07:04:05 PM »

Just so it's entered on the thread officially, I have a few players that are over the salary table I posted earlier but not by a whole lot. I am going to roll with the contracts I was given. This absolutely does not mean that any of you in the IBL should feel like you should do the same. As we noticed even before the drafts for some reason the game considered the IBL a wealthier league even though the financials options were the same for each. My payroll is the highest in the ABL and it is $20M below two of the payrolls in the IBL.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #52 on:** April 22, 2015, 07:06:13 PM »

Also a note: the first sim will be a 3-day sim because an OOTP "week" is Monday-Sunday. The game started on Friday, Jan. 1st, 2100 so I will sim until Monday 1/4/2100 on the first sim and then a full week this Friday night and moving forward after that.

I am a go. should see a file from me

Huckleberry · « **Reply #54 on:** April 22, 2015, 07:42:59 PM »

Yes, sir. Sent a PM when I saw it. We will need to get Mombasa up and running as soon as possible but I've got 5 valid exports from today so it looks like things are functioning properly on the league site end.

squaredrive · « **Reply #55 on:** April 22, 2015, 09:00:16 PM »

Just a heads up that everything worked fine for the download for me and looks fine with the Mexico City salaries. Ready to roll... thanks for the hard work getting us going.

BaylorHistory · « **Reply #56 on:** April 22, 2015, 09:16:52 PM »

Looks good from my side.

my accounts data originally waent into the settings folder with a (1) at the end because i already had one in the download folder i had to erase the (1) for it to work
Fair enough i havent seen any examples just dont wanna see guys who drafted above their means being given free passes

With just the knowledge that a $50 M salary cap would be in effect after the draft, How exactly are guys to have know that they were "drafting above their means", while still reasonably pursuing the objective of drafting as good a team as possible. It would be one thing if we could see players contract expectations at the time of the draft, or if we had a rule of thumb, like the one time rule that Huck proposed, in advance of the draft. But in the absence of any clues about the specific financial implications of drafting any particular player, how can anybody be guilty of drafting beyond their means?

it was pretty obvious that a couple teams were going way over budget. look at the overall talent in the league and its pretty easy to make an educated guess at salaries based on the players talent level as compared to the rest of the league. however some of the examples huck showed me were definitely out of wack. im not against small amounts of editing just dont want to see guys getting carried away.

I won't usually do this moving forward but because some are having issues I am going to post the team export status. The OOTP OU export tracker only determines if a file is in the export folder and what date it was loaded. Unfortunately it does not check to see if it is a valid file. So here are the export statuses (team id numbers are included just to help me keep track):

Los Angeles Stars (Team 4) - Valid Export
Mexico City Aztecs (Team 3) - Valid Export
Milwaukee Brewers (Team 1) - No Export
New York City Empires (Team 7) - No Export
Twin Cities Millers (Team 2) - Valid Export

Bogota Condors (Team 10) - Valid Export
Buenos Aires Dolphins (Team 5) - Valid Export
Rio de Janeiro Jaguars (Team 9) - Valid Export
Santo Domingo Palmchats (Team 6) - N/A
Sao Paulo Anacondas (Team 8) - Valid Export

Lagos Eagles (Team 59) - Valid Export
London Monarchs (Team 53) - Valid Export
Mombasa Mets (Team 54) - Valid Export
Moscow Lancers (Team 60) - No Export
Paris Lightning (Team 55) - Valid Export

Delhi Tigers (Team 51) - Valid Export
Karachi Falcons (Team 56) - No Export
Seoul Crushers (Team 58) - Valid Export
Singapore Merlions (Team 57) - Invalid Export
Tokyo Samurai (Team 52) - Valid Export

Note: Valid doesn't mean I've imported them into the game yet, just that there is a file that has an actual file size, indicating there is data there. The ones marked invalid have files on the server but the file size is zero indicating an upload error. I won't import files prior to the sim unless asked to by the owner to verify it worked.

It seems that the primary issue is now an "Error -202" from OOTP on the upload. Based on searching the OOTP forums that only seems to have ever been solved by firewall settings, resetting router connections, etc. For now if we still can't get it to work you can export your team to your hard drive and then use the alternative team export form available in the League Owners Only forum.

If I make some changes today before the deadline can I do another export or will I have to wait until you run the day?

It should overwrite your previous export and the changes should be included when I import.

Mombasa · « **Reply #61 on:** April 23, 2015, 08:16:49 AM »

Hey boss still have not gotten thru yet to import or export, what is the actual address it is trying to reach

Huckleberry · « **Reply #62 on:** April 23, 2015, 08:24:14 AM »

Team export directory is http://www.worldbaseballassociation.com/team-files/

I am working on an attempt to code a file upload page into the forum here to bypass the FTP and export issues for those that are having problems.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #63 on:** April 23, 2015, 08:38:20 AM »

ATTENTION OWNERS WITH EXPORT ISSUES

Please go to the League Owners Only forum and look for the thread regarding the alternative export form. Please try that form and post here when you've done so and I will check the export directory to see if it worked.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #64 on:** April 23, 2015, 09:00:15 AM »

Sweet. Mombasa's team export file is now in the directory via the new forum upload page. The real test is obviously later when I import it but I see no reason it shouldn't work.

CA · « **Reply #65 on:** April 23, 2015, 02:42:12 PM »

SP Remy Huart is the only salary quirk I have. 3-star making $7 mil a year.

sumhzrd · « **Reply #67 on:** April 23, 2015, 06:01:00 PM »

3 contracts for review:

Ju Yi Lee 4.5 stars 4 years at 9.0M each
Li-xue Zhao 2 stars 1 year at 2.8M
Tessfalfe Dibia 1 star 3 years at 1.2M / 1.3M / 1.3M

maxprime · « **Reply #68 on:** April 23, 2015, 06:16:38 PM »

none of those seem terrible to me. lee. i could see an argument for but even his isnt a terrible contract when you look at him as a player, he looks like hes going to do alot of damage against righties i guess hes not really a superstar though.
Stars really dont mean shit

To pull the proper file you go to File --> Online League --> Download Latest League File

Your game date should be 1/11/2100 if you have the correct file.

Just a heads up to the league, my internet service has been going out all day. I will try to run the sim at 9:00 but we'll see. I'm posting from my phone right now because it's down again.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #73 on:** April 25, 2015, 07:23:42 PM »

The ETA for full resolution of the internet issue is 11:00 pm but I will try to get it done if there's a window of connectivity.

First weird thing happened. Check out the ABL transactions page and this guy's page.

I offered him a minor league contract before tonight's sim. Somehow it says I gave him a huge extension but he still wasn't signed to my team.

yeah I noticed that as well...very odd

another one is this, http://www.worldbaseballassociation.com/reports/news/html/players/player_2211.html

was "granted FA" on January 4th, but it shows on the index that he's still on Paris' AAA team. However, in game, he's not there. Also if you go to his profile in game, his name is now Jim Unknown and he has 0 in every rating category. Looked like he was a decent player at one point too.

Huckleberry · « **Reply #79 on:** April 27, 2015, 06:23:59 AM »

Wow, check out the game date on MacKinder's profile. Weird.

Okay, looked him up in game and it says he suffered a career ending injury on 1/4/2100. That sucks.

Paris_Rich, did you get a news item about a career-ending injury for MacKinder?

I think this is probably related to the fact that I have the option to delete retired players checked. This is to keep the league file size down. He still shows up in my game but I guess will be deleted from the file that is uploaded and downloaded.
