Re: New League, New Season

Postby bluegriffon » Sat Aug 26, 2023 11:07 am

So once again I was the victim of "gremlins" in the works. After the latest windows 11 update my laptop became a brick. During attempts to recover it I lost everything I had in the system, including everything for my "What if" league. I am going to try and re-do everything keeping the league as i had it in the latest version except i will be using the actual So Cal Sun and Tampa Bay Bandits rosters instead of rebranding the San Diego Fleet and Tampa Bay Vipers like I did this last time around.

This time I will backup everything in case i have issues again in the future.
