Hey guys,
Hope everyone is enjoying playing with the new cards in ATG 8. A few people have asked how to switch their teams from ATG 7 to ATG 8.
You can convert it to ATG 8 by clicking on your team, going to your draft list, clicking "change" next to where it says "Player Set: ATG VII" at the top, choosing ATG 8 and saving your change. In general, your draft list should remain intact with the exception of players who were upgraded or had changed their salary that are on your list. The players who were upgraded will be removed from your draft list completely. Those who had their salary change will show with the new salary except if the change in salary would put your team over your salary cap! In this case, the program will give you an error message and it will not allow you to change to ATG 8. You will either need to remove a player or start fresh with an ATG 8 team. If you've already joined an ATG VII league that has not drafted yet, you may pull your team out to switch your set to ATG 8, but then of course you will not be able to re-join the same ATG VII league.
One thing that I wanted to mention we are doing for a league is helping them run a unique draft. This league drafts by having a team draft their entire draft before the second team picks. That team then picks their entire team and this continues until all 12 teams have drafted. We have helped this league set up by pushing the league live with no players allowing them to select their draft order and then draft their own team. This particular league then continues through 12 seasons, rotating who drafts where each time. If others have unique leagues like this, please let us know and we would be happy to accommodate your league's draft.
Last news I have for today is the two tournaments (Players Championship and Barnstormers) continue to run. The Barnstormers have already completed Event 2, almost finished with Event 3, and have started Event 4. The current leaders are listed below:
# Manager Points
1. springer0432 353
2. chuckwonup 335
3. bmilner 334
4. BruceF 330
5. djmacb 327
5. karphenry 327
7. dinsdale 316
7. rookssa1958 316
9. Chemosh 314
9. danielz 314
The Players Championship has moved on to Events 2 and 3. Although Event 1 is closed, users still have the opportunity to sign up if they get in for Event 2. Not many games in but the current leaders are below:
# Manager Points
1. edgecitytx 89
2. ScumbyJr 85
3. dalekeener 81
4. Delbird 80
4. VilleBowler300 80
6. bob711 76
7. keyzick 75
8. FoggyOne 74
8. Jeepdriver 74
10. l.strether 72
That's all I have for this week, talk to you all next Thursday! As always, if anyone has any questions please e-mail us at onlinegamesupport@strat-o-matic.com.
