for 70M, how are combined seasons handled if the guy was partially on your base franchise and partially not? I'm assuming the combined season that's a different franchise is plus $2M and the combined season that's the same franchise is minus $3M, but wanted to make sure.

Good q. That's correct.

Shouldn’t the combined season of your base team be no change? Assuming we’re not talking a twist.

Base team yes, base franchise no. I assumed the question was in reference to a twist. Maybe 06gsp can clarify.

yeah I meant a twist

I already made 3 teams lol. I should probably make multiples now.

I would recommend starting on the 160M theme now. Building this roster will drive you nuts. It's like building a house of cards. If you try to make one little swap, the entire thing crashes down and you have to start over.

Then it appears to be working as intended.

I am pretty sure I have a legal team at the salary cap, after hours of work. If anyone can pull that off without any wasted innings or PAs beyond 200k scrubs, I will be very impressed.

The problem is most of us want to start at the top... picking all the good players and figuring out the bottom part of the roster last. After getting to about the 20th player, I realized it doesn't work and I am going to need to start over.

I think I will start from the bottom first, and fill those tough to fill positions and/or franchises.

one key for me was making sure a lot of my modern players weren't on original sixteen franchises, otherwise you'll be out of franchises for 1900s through 1950s

Yep. 1 spot left on the roster, 501k left, 1 semi-popular letter, and every option is from a decade or franchise I’ve used.

I can't take credit for this theme. It was originally proposed by an owner called mwammes. He has tried multiple times (at various caps) to start it but has never been able to generate enough interest. I've built a team for it each time. It's a hard theme. So I figured we'd be the guinea pigs.

120M

Question 1. When you say, the captain can specify which division they are in, I assume you mean "East", "Central", "West". What division are the captains assumed to be in? Or do they default to whichever division is leftover?

Question 2: Will all the players that have been picked by each team be made available all during the player selection process, including which team picked which players? I can only assume the answer to this is Yes, but need to ask.

#1: Yes, I am referring to "East", "Central", "West". Captains will default to whatever spot is left in their league (National, American).

#2: I don't understand this question
