Roster Moves during Playoffs

April 24, 2014 at 07:01PM View BBCode

Not sure if it's a bug or not, The LDS has just ended and I have tried dropping a player to the minors to open up room for a player coming off the DL.

ERROR: If your team is in the playoffs, you can only promote players in between the LCS and World Series.


I know we're not between the LCS and WS, as the LCS is about to begin, but is it the intention that rosters are fixed for both the LDS and LCS, and only can change before the WS?

the game doesn't consider the series over until the time slot where game 7 would have run has passed. so if you won in, say, 5 games, you still can't make moves until after the game 7 slot even though the series is already decided.

I am in the same Beta league and I was able to make moves right after I was eliminated in 4 games, it looks like the 7 game timeframe has passed as well.

I was also not able to move my 5th starter to the pen until after the LCS started...

This page needs updated logic to deal with the different and longer playoff schedule. I will take a look at this.

Just to clarify, I tried making the move after the 7 game series had ended.

Beanballs, I also noticed the issue of not being able to drop your fifth starter until after the playoffs began. I didn't know if that was unusual as it was the first team I had in the playoffs, but recently I've taken a few trial league teams to the playoffs and see you can set your rotation beforehand.

Ok, I've fixed this. There was a block of code that was dependant on the dates of 16 team league playoff schedules. I've added in a block of code for the 24 team league format and tested it using Baltimore.

I also made a change to the Rotation & Bullpen page so that you can go with 4 starters anytime on or after October 2nd. Previously, this was set to October 3rd.

Thanks for pointing out these issues!

Well I should follow up. I was able to make the move I wanted after game 1 of the LCS had already played, which should not be allowed. IDK if that was before or after your fix.

I'm going to speed through the regular season to reach the playoffs and test this stuff.

Ok, something else looks strange. The league date should have stopped at 10/2 in case there was a tiebreaker. Before moving forward, I'm going to delete the last game of the season and replay it and take a look at this. I'm going to leave the standings alone, so that is why we played 163 games.

Alright, that looked okay that time. Must have happened because I was running so many games at once.

I tested using Cincinnati during the series. I tried to promote/demote in between every series, and during every series, and it worked as I expected. So I think we are good to go here.

If you see any other issues, please let me know.
