Mumbai would name the player that they want when SD is on the clock. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. In the example, Trouts was named by Mumbai at the time SD was on the clock, not before.
Mumbai would need to be aware of when SD is on the clock. And the commish could be a "backstop" to enforce the draft pick trade scenario (i.e., ask Mumbai who they want when SD is on the clock).

This will require an amendment to the WBA Constitution, so starting a discussion thread.
My proposed implementation involves the team sending the pick to make a draft selection according to the receiving team's reference during the draft. Or the commish can make the selection. The commish would move the drafted player to the correct rookie roster post-draft. If needed, $1 could change hands if something has to be exchanged from each side.
Example: Mumbai trades Darchiev to Santo Domingo for 2006 1st round draft pick.
Implementation:
Mumbai receives $1 today
SD receives Darchiev today
Mumbai tells SD to draft Mikel Trouts next draft.
SD drafts Trouts.
After draft, Mumbai receives Trouts, SD receives $1.
Mumbai votes FOR this proposed amendment.

Mumbai was SUPPOSED to be an offensive juggernaut with good enough pitching to compete.

Huck, what's the net effect of not hitting auto-calc? The league "drifts" on its own? (I don't know that such an organic drift is bad, but want to understand before opining).

Mumbai has freed up two roster spots on the 25-man for Andy Stone and Ed Tozer.
Stone slots in as Mumbai's #3 starter, replacing Towson, who goes into middle relief.
Tozer becomes another 7th inning+ setup man.
Celestino replaces Khorasani on Single-A Amdavad.
There's an extra player on Rookie League Surat's roster, but that will sort itself out since I'm trading away multiple guys from there.

Confirmed.
Huck, I'll post Mumbai's 40 and 25 man roster moves tomorrow.

So are we limited to trading up to the Start Cash amount, or can we trade upto the Ending Cash amount and have it deducted after the season? I assume it's the former, but thought I'd check to make sure.

So, cricket remains popular in the next century. No shock there.
Mr. Aslam, I assume, is either in remarkable health to have survived to 2105, or otherwise is a musical cyborg.

Mumbai is looking to make moves again this offseason, hoping to finally end their playoff curse.
Mumbai's primary purpose is to acquire starting pitching that can help take it to that elusive championship...or hell, how about at least the championship series for a change.
The Mumbai farm system is fairly well stocked, so there are deals to be made. Mumbai is also prioritizing trading away the following two plus-fielding, power-hitting infielders who are good enough to start in the majors but are no longer in Mumbai's plans:
2B/1B/SS Beni Mokate (could be in the last year of his contract as next year is a player option)
1B/SS/2B Memduh Kazancigil (in the last year of his contract)

Maybe Mumbai will win when the Cubs do?
263
« on: July 12, 2016, 06:54:38 PM »
Best record in the WBA...hopefully can ride home field advantage to a championship. Back-to-back triple crown winner will hopefully lead from the front and make it happen.

Saw that Twinkletoes got hurt, thank god it's only a couple of weeks.
265
« on: June 29, 2016, 07:40:16 PM »
Huck,
Kindly add Ledesma to the Mumbai 40-man (there's room) and to the 25-man major league roster (I just demoted somebody and exported again).
266
« on: June 29, 2016, 07:44:01 AM »
New York sends Victor Ledesma to Mumbai.
Mumbai sends Jung-ha Kim and Sampoerna Chin to New York.
Huck, I'll let you know about roster move(s) for Mumbai later today.

Any preseason prediction that doesn't have last year's triple crown winner in the top 10 hitters is suspect.
268
« on: May 16, 2016, 08:03:13 PM »
Confirmed. Nzibio replaces Yokoyama on Major League roster.

Darchiev gave me a fantastic hometown discount. Pretty awesome deal, need to do right by him and win a title now.

found it, thanks!

« on: January 29, 2016, 09:42:46 PM »
So where's the voting for end of season awards, in-game or somewhere on the website?
272
« on: January 09, 2016, 05:48:33 PM »
So is the next sim just for a day? Hard to set playoff lineups/rotation without matchups/dates finalized.
273
« on: November 22, 2015, 06:34:48 PM »
Cool, sent you a PM, let me know if you need any more info.
Thanks.
274
« on: November 22, 2015, 12:53:37 PM »
So how do I get my prospects back? Something went wrong and they all got released even though I'd demoted them manually in my Nov. 20th export.
275
« on: September 30, 2015, 08:38:50 PM »
That sucked.
Have to think you at least make it to the one game playoff if Twinkletoes doesn't go down with an injury with a week-and-a-half left.
Yup. Freaking Brits bringing down the Indian man. Same shit different millennium.

Completely forgot to reply here...the file was downloaded correctly, and it appears that everything is in order re: roster compositions.
278
« on: September 21, 2015, 07:34:14 PM »
I'll check in about 5-10 minutes.
279
« on: September 19, 2015, 10:38:46 PM »
Just putting in the thread too, since it's only in the chat box. Something broke in the last sim, and a lot of rosters and players got shuffled up (though for some reason, it all looks fine in OOTP utilities online).

Looking for a top flight starter since I've lost my ace for the rest of the season in the middle of a pennant chase.
Willing to discuss most prospects and I also have some middle infield surplus at the major league level.
281
« on: July 22, 2015, 06:59:55 PM »
I can give it a shot if nobody else has stepped up...maybe you can talk me through the sim today so I can do it on my own the rest of week/weekend?
282
« on: June 27, 2015, 08:26:50 PM »
The weekly thing was tough during the playoffs in that I couldn't make a snap decision to go with an ace pitcher on short rest, etc.
But if I'm being honest Singapore had my team's number all season long, so it wouldn't have changed the outcome.

« on: April 25, 2015, 05:02:03 PM »
Works for me too

« on: April 25, 2015, 04:58:23 PM »
Nicely done.

« on: April 22, 2015, 05:47:22 PM »
Here is a suggestion for a different one-time rule.
Player salaries (but not contract length because that is a fair luck of the draw type thing) may be adjusted as follows for "overpaid" players after the inaugural draft - a player that has an overall star rating up to the given amount may be lowered to the shown salary:
5 star - $9M
4.5 star - $7.5M
4 star - $6M
3.5 star - $5M
3 star - $4M
2.5 star - $3M
2 star - $1.5M
1.5 star - $1M
1 star - $750K
Huck, if we go with this, how would it apply to multi-year contracts that may not exceed the value in the table this year, but will be exceeding it in future years. Or vice versa in the case of a front-loaded contract? I guess a related question would be whether a salary adjustment in line with the above chart would apply uniformly across all years (and remove any frontloadedness or backloadedness of a contract). Sucks that you've had to deal with issue upon issue by the way. Thanks for setting this up though, I'm sure this is going to be fun once everything gets sorted out.
286
« on: April 22, 2015, 05:42:50 PM »
Yeah, I'm inclined to agree that something needs to be done regarding the contracts. It's hard to say anybody drafted "above their means," given that the demands were turned off and it was assumed that OOTP would set every team's collectively year 2100 salary to roughly the same amount (just under $ 50 million).
I had also assumed that everybody would have the 5-year rookie contracts, but to be honest it's not as big an issue, since it's a luck of the draw thing and we've all been affected. Some of us have our first-round pick in impending free agency, which obviously sucks because I'm sure it was assumed the player would be a long-term building block. (For me personally, half my major league roster is on a one-year deal, and I largely stayed away from prospects and assumed I would get 5 solid years from my veteran draft picks...though I may not have understood the contract rules, so that's on me)
Having a handful of teams having opening day payrolls at $75 million does seem a bit much though, so there should be someway to not have staring down the barrel of such a big deficit on opening day.

Noon on Sunday means noon in which time zone?
Also, can anybody who's used the utility confirm that you can see the timer countdown online somewhere?
288
« on: April 18, 2015, 10:02:43 PM »
No worries man, growing pains.
289
« on: April 18, 2015, 09:50:12 PM »
Inaugural IBL pick is in. Good luck to everybody.
290
« on: April 18, 2015, 09:30:24 PM »
Wait, can I redo my pick then?
291
« on: April 18, 2015, 07:26:25 PM »
Oh wow, just noticed I'm on the clock. Should have my pick in shortly...
292
« on: April 17, 2015, 08:00:56 PM »
So two basic questions:
How do I switch the draft utility to the IBL?
I don't recall setting my password for the OOTP online utilities...I've tried my forum password and it obviously didn't work, and neither did the default password I used to load the saved game in OOTP 16.
