I would assume that unlimited live draft will use the whole set. That's the only thing you play, isn't it?

No, but also don't appreciate the swipe- they should be in the set period.
many of them were voted on in the card adds.

I stand corrected. Wasn't meant as a swipe. Just only thing I've ever seen you in so I made an incorrect assumption. My appologies.

its not cool-
what they should do is reverse it - the default SHOULD be all players
and if someone wants to eliminate them then it should be a drop down choice.

I also don't see that they fixed most of the over/under priced cards - many of them are still off- some more now.

I agree. The default should be ALL the players. The subset should be only 1901 on.

As for prices , it looks like they fixed most of the blatantly underpriced cards, but did little/nothing to address the overpriced cards that never get used.

OMG YES!!!
I think the only significant change is to the bullpen- higher salary less innings--
im not complaining about that change- its totally fine- but shouldn't there be something else?

That haven't been eliminated. They are still there. New younger players don't want those goofy cards from the 1880s.

right because the older folks were around to remember all the ww1 guys--
like 1900 is not some arbitrary cutoff.

Some of us are even old enough to remember the 1880s guys. In fact, some of my best, dearest friends aren't listed - Charlie Bennett, Jack Glasscock, and Pretzels Getzein, for instance. Gosh, I miss them!
