What about all the teams that just started clocks on guys that didn’t need to?
It really don’t start their clocks. When someone is placed on the 40 man all that really means is they begin 3 years known as the option years. In theory you can hold someone on your 40 man for 9 seasons after placing them on the 40 man. The first 3 years can be spent in the minors during the option years then the final 6 years on the active BBA roster. The clock don’t start until they are placed on the BBA active roster.
That’s the point...

Yep the option clock is getting started too soon.

Yes so it’s not as simple as just canceling the rule 5.

clearly I (and apparently Robillard) have found the best solution to this. Have such a shitty minors system that the 40 man issue is not really a problem.

If we're killing the Rule 5 this year, and I need to completely undo my moves in my current export so I don't put guys on the 40 if they don't need to be, I would appreciate as much notice as possible.

Sort of along these lines ... I did my changes after this last sim, but I exported last night. If, however, I sent a new export from my laptop where those 40-man roster changes, etc., haven't been made yet, would that override the earlier export and, in effect, undo the changes?

Yes, or you could download a fresh file and re-export.

You can DL a fresh file by deleting the "online_league_file_time.cfg" file in your BBA.lg > settings folder and then "download latest league file."

Just wait until I get home tonight and look at a setting. Might be an easy fix.

As a GM that didnt put anyone in my 40-man roster that I’d didn’t already need to; nor felt any of the guys I put on a list would actually end up available in the Rule 5 draft, I vote we skip the rule 5 this year and just move on.

Definitely added some to the 40 man prior to last sim in anticipation of the Rule 5 (not sure all of which needed to be based on this thread).

I work until 9pm Central (give or take a half hour) every Friday night. It's a 35 minute drive home. I will get into it as soon as I get home.
