Wouldn't it be easier to just start the league and check the rosters in the league? The commish has to approve the rosters in a theme league before it starts.

Fair enough.

Are AAA rosters restricted to 2 pitchers and 6 position players?  If so, I assume this is for opening roster purposes.  Once the rosters are approved, players may be moved in and out of AAA consistent with standard SimLeague rules correct?

I'm going to open a roster thread anyway- it has been requested.  It is not mandatory to post your roster there (I have a spreadsheet file on my computer with all 24 rosters), but feel free to do so.

I was hoping to send out a league number tonight, but I'm having a devil of a time with the manual AAA players, so it'll have to wait a little.  Don't worry- I have plenty to do updating the roster spreadsheets.

OK, I believe at this point I have all rosters and balances updated and correct.  Balances are listed on the (No) Free Parking thread and are updated with all trades and post-supplemental auctions that are final.  If you won at least one auction after the supplemental draft, the last total subtracted from your total is for those auctions.  If you notice any discrepancy, please sitemail me.

I seem to have figured out most of the issues with the AAA players- it's enough to at least get my squad set up.  The AAA search doesn't recognize some of my less expensive players, so I put them on the 25 man roster and can send them to AAA once we start up- you may have to do the same.  I'll send out a sitemail with a league number in a few minutes.

What range did you set AAA to? If it's average, then some of the players might be below the salary threshold for average, which I think is $1.5M or so for hitters, and $1M for pitchers.

By the way, I know a lot of people have said this, but this has been an amazing job to get this league up and running. It's much more fun than a traditional progressive, but I can't imagine what kind of work goes into maintaining it. I should have posted on Thanksgiving about how thankful I am .

I tried playing with that, brian, and still can't seem to come up with a setting that allows me to see everybody in a AAA search.  Not much I can do about it now without reseting the whole league I think, but I still asked CS about it.
