Creating a league with players drafted from any year

Started by MV (joined · 7 posts · 16 karma) , ago

Hi Harlin,

I would love to be able to build a draft league with players drafted from ANY of the available seasons. So if I have a draft year, say 1966, I could get Sandy Koufax, or if I choose 1959, I could get Frank Robinson. I think this could be done as all seasons are available. Appreciate what you do. (This is not an All-Star league just access to the players)

A number of things would have to be settled on something like this as this idea is potentially far from a trivial request. Who would you run drafts against? Just the AI managed teams? Or against other human players? Could this be drafting in one spot either Sandy Koufax 1965 or Sandy Koufax 1966 ... yada, yada ....This could take a LOT of work to do and I'm not quite sure yet if "the juice is worth the squeeze" so to speak. We would have to think of a simple way to do it so it would be very intuitive for users who want to try this out. I'll give it some thought for sure.

Hi Harln, exclude the draft explanation, but think about creating custom teams.

Fill those teams with players who are imported from any given year. That is a simpler way of explaining it.

Hopefully this makes more sense. Thanks for the swift reply.
