There are a couple things with Fast Sim 18 that need looking into.

First the Chicago AL owner has just left the game .... but not before leaving a parting shot at the rest of the league. Please change the team name, that he change right before leaving. A side note to this ... is there any way that you can reverse some distructive moves that some juvinile (refering to thier maturity not their age) owners make right before dumping a team. For example one owner (I think it was the Chicago NL team) went into the FA pool and signed a bunch of old free agents to long term contracts then dumped the team. Can you program it so any trades or signings that are followed by a team being dumped in the next day or so would be reversed?

The second thing that you should look into is a group of owners that all have used simular names, who in fact may have been the same person. They went by "something"b13 (like justinb13 or tylerb13). All of them have been gone exactly 17 days. Could be just a group of friends playing together or one person striping several teams to make one great team (Atlanta would be the team he stripped the others for)

Thanks

Some of these things, to me, just have to be dealt with. While accounts are free there is really no way to stop player from owning multiple accounts. Once they start charging per account this might deter some of the cheating but there will be those players who are so built on winning that they will have two accounts just to rape and pillage. There could be a feature to not allow hotmail, yahoo, juno, and other free email accounts from joining the league.. this would cut dwn on player fraud but will also alienate some true players who can not aquire a email account any other way. I personally don't let myself be bothered about the way others play.. I just see it as more of a challenge in a already good game.

I'm quite sure that this post did not help you in the least with your problems.. sorry about that.. just in a rambling mood today. :)

Well, I fixed the name. The rest is harder to manage. Are you sure he has abandoned his team?

I can't release any players because the team is in debt. Anyone want a trade? Especially for expensive players?

The Chicago NL is a new owner and not the one that messed up the team before leaving. I was just using that team as an example of some of the things that can happen when a owner gets tired of a team and goes balistic right before dumping it.

Sorry for the confusion and thanks again James
