Advice? Trying to create new "Shuffle The Deck" sets?

I'd like to create some new ATG "Shuffle The Deck" sets. I can see that others have created new sets by looking in League Directory, but can't see how to create new ones myself. FWIW, this is what I was thinking of...

The Lively Ball (1920 to 1941)
The Post-War Boom (1946 to 1962)
The Modern Deadball Era (1963 to 1976)
Modern Golden Age (1977 to 1992)

You would need to email Strat at 365support@strat-o-matic.com

First, on the Free Agent page of any league, click Download ATG 8 player list as Excel spreadsheet, which will download an Excel File of all cards in the set, both pitchers and hitters.
Second, Simply delete all the cards you don't want in your specific set.
Third, Save the file and email it to Strat.
Lather, rinse, repeat

tony,

When creating a new team, Step 1 is to choose your player set. There several options for ATG8 including 4 standard ATG subsets (AL Only, NL Only, etc.). Under the standard subsets, you will see "Shuffle The Deck" sets. Scroll through the list to see the various sets that have been created.

Right now, I am in two leagues using "Shuffle" sets. We need a few more managers to draft:
    1949-1960 - used ATG8 49-60 set --> Needs 3 more teams to draft
    ATG 8 - 1968-1995 - Glory Days - uses ATG8 68-95 set --> Needs 8 more teams to draft

Jump into one of these league (or both! :D ), so we can run a draft. I will be adding a few more sets in the next few days and will post to these boards.

Awesome, anything post Jackie Robinson I am interested in. 1947-1997, or whatever. Though with the new cards out I have been mainly focusing on 2016 leagues.

I take it you were a big fan who took a break and now is back, welcome back!

I want to jump back in that 1968-1995 league, I just have to buy some more credits. I haven't had a playoff team win a series in a couple months now. I was waiting on my 1980s team to win a playoff series and last night they were swept. Doh, I need more credits!

I am glad you are getting the word out about era themed subsets.
