Just out of curiosity, why the 3 day wait between running offseasons and the amateur drafts?

This gives the new owners time to set their Amateur Draft preferences.

For the new owners, when should we be able to see our roster. Mine is coming up blank when I click on depth chart.

I purchased:

Gillanet Carl Yastrzemski League 1986 Boston Red Sox Hera

In addition, the home page, I have a date of 4-1-1950.

Sorry if this is not the right place to post this question/issue.

Ok, its after 10am, when will the draft for the Expansion Teams run?

Sorry, I was thinking we still had another day.

There was a problem with the script, you should be in charge of your team now.

if they take over the 10th, they need 6 days? I don't mind I guess just kind of frustrating to wait an almost full week after the WS, isn't there a way to let them rank the draft class when they buy the team that way the rest of the league doesn't have to wait a full week?

i like the week layoff, lets me catch up on the other things in my life, and renews my sim dynasty joy when i catch that first sweet sight of dynasty vision on opening day...and it puts an actual break in between seasons, instead of just all running together as you'll find in the speed leagues. Plus I just won my first championship and I'm having fun imagining all the boys sippin champagne out the top of the trophy on a tropical island somewhere before spring training! I think i'm in the minority on this one, probably most people just want the seasons to go go go, but I really hope it never changes. Oh yeah also it helps me plan vacations, since I know the season starts on the 16th of every other month...so many reasons not to change!

A week off from SD changes the blood pressure and my doctor is happy with my progress.

My appointments are always scheduled for the 11th of the month when due. That way I can fill in the blanks for retirements and update draft picks in the quite of the waiting room.
If bp can't appreciate the humor in those statements
me thinks he needs to savor this Sim a bit more or take up knitting.
The three of us have one WS title what's the rush for the second?;)
Enjoy the game.

I do enjoy the game plenty, just the off-seasons are getting much longer it seems,

We always start the season on the 16th. This is to ensure that the season always starts on the same day and helps with other scheduling items. For instance, renewals are always due on the 1st of the month preceding that and there is code that assumes this.

There is also a bit of extra time during this changeover due to the fact that July and August both have 31 days.

There is less to do on the server between seasons than there used to be. We used to have to delete single season leagues, for instance.

If you are in a Dynasty league that wishes to have a tighter schedule, you might want to explore changing to a Speed league. There are a few differences. You'd still play 3 GPD, but payments would be done monthly and Dynasty dollars aren't used in Speed leagues, and these leagues open the door to the possibility of rule changes such as using a different minor league system if there is unanimous support for it. We'd need unanimous support to make this change. If you're in a league that wishes to do this, please contact us in Support and we can talk about setting up a vote.

i am already in a private league, I was just voicing my thoughts, just think it's a bit long but oh well, still prefer them to other leagues

Unfortunately, there are consequences to moving it and I'm afraid the consequences outweigh the benefits in my mind.

alright, thanks for your time and responses

Your best bet is to convince the other owners in your league to change the league to a Speed league.
