    Fear not, Manyard. For after a whirlwind of touch and go bbs surfing, viewing games apart from chat :( , and Kansas like exhaustion. The Wakefields schedule returns to it's proper state.

    And now, Ricardo Rodriguez is out for justice, or some hardware.

    Small problem. When you click on the name of the player you want to check out, it gives you a :

    The page cannot be found
    The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Please try the following:

    If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.

    Open the users2.ev1.net home page, and then look for links to the information you want.
    Click the Back button to try another link.
    Click Search to look for information on the Internet.

    Is it just me, or is anyone else having this problem?

    Heath hasn't updated profiles yet.

    Okay, instead of starting a new thread, I figure this is as good as any place to mention this information:


    1) Heath is still having problems logging on to the BBS - it is not an ISP problem but more like he got a trojan that has banned him from certain sites. He is in the chat and told me that hopefully he can get this resolved on Monday.

    2) Heath did say that he will start accepting email bids for free agents. Email him through the BBS your bid (he also said that he was going to fill the off-season trades, so that will change your money situation - I would just email bids and not worry about if you have the money or not IF you did an off-season trade).

    3) After Heath gets back to posting on the BBS (hopefully on Monday or somewhat after), we can talk about having FA possibly next Saturday - but that will all be determined when he gets his problem fixed.

    4) There are several players showing up in the free agent list that should have not been there. You can NOT place bids on the following players:

    Torrii Hunter
    Bobby Kielty
    Craig A Wilson
    Kyle Lohse
    Scott Stewart
    Armando Rios
    Omar Infante
    Alex Escobar
    Marcus Giles
    Horacio Ramirez
    Jesse Foppert
    Jose Molina
    Jorge Posada
    Bill Mueller
    Jim Edmonds
    Jon Rauch
    Tony Graffanino
    Joe Borchard
    Felipe Lopez
    Dave Kelton
    Chad Paronto
    Rich Garces
    Johnny Estrada
    Wilson Betemit
    Jung Bong


    5) Finally, Heath wants everyone to look at their player's talent ratings on the nostalgia site and compare them to the old site to make sure everything was transferred correctly. We have identified a couple that did not transfer over properly. If you have a major leaguer or top prospect that is now good in homers but was brilliant in homers according to the old site, identify in this thread.

    Example of doing this:

    P Johan A Santana (right-handed one) - Traded from Cubs to Padres - should be brilliant, not good in avoiding hits

    Rickey Hoban should be Good Average Good

    Joel Pineiro should be Good Brilliant Good Average

    Scott Sobkowiak should be Good Good Average Brilliant

    What are the number ranges because the nostalgia site has # ratings while the old one uses words like "brilliant" "good" "average" etc.

    6=brilliant?

    Well, the nostalgia site still has the brilliant, good, average talent ratings but they are listed below the numerical ratings (Chuck had forgotten to turn on the numerical ratings - that is why all you could see was the talent ratings).

    If someone is a brilliant and only has a "6" numerically, then they are still "developing into their talent". An "8" is the lowest for a brilliant (and I think the highest for a good) while the highest can be over a "10".

    Now that Blanco is GGG as opposed to AGA when I traded him I think a little extra compensation is in order.

    Email Heath about it.

    Normally, if there is a player talent error that works in your favor, we don't change it back to the way it was. However, since that was a trade, it might be easier for Heath to adjust Blanco back to A-G-A.
