Round 1 Themes, 2021 Topic

The projected SLG is definitely wrong; it will stick out like a sore thumb when you are drafting a team.

Using one of my drafted teams, the calculation appears to have taken into account the 60 game 2020 season and the 154 game schedule prior to 1961 for many of the hitting variables. However, there are some that are close but definitely off (e.g., CS). Also, not sure if the assumption of games is always the same amount per team per season (how does it deal with rainouts, games that were suspended without a winner and replayed, playoff game(s) to decide the pennant, etc...). These are small differences, but do they get taken into account?

Obviously it is AVG & OAV for the 70M theme and HR/9 for the variable cap that need to be correct. They look to be fine, but others should check against their team(s) as well...

Seems like the important ones (for theme rules) are working. Correct me if I am wrong.

This is my interpretation as well, but someone should send in a ticket regardless so that they can fix the SLG

Q: 110M theme:

It's not specifically mentioned, but since we roster 25 players, I assume we can have more than one teammate per player selected (at least one player HAS to have more than one teammate).
Oh, yes, you can have as many players from a single team as you'd like as long as you have the same number of players from that team on your Round 2 team.
It's not specifically stated, but can I assume no player's same season can be used in both rounds? I can't use '27 Ruth and Gehrig and then use them as each others' teammates in Round 2, right? But I could use one season of each in Round 1 and then use their teammate seasons in Round 2?
Correct — you can't use the same player twice
I just want to make sure I fully understand this answer - does "you can't use the same player twice" mean year-specific player?

Is it legal to use

a) 1927 Ruth on the first team and 1927 Wilcy Moore on the second team and
b) 1930 Gehrig on the first team and 1930 Ruth on the second?

This would be legal
So to be clear on 110M, could we use ‘21 Ruth and ‘27 Gehrig on Rd 1 and then use ‘21 Gehrig and ‘27 Ruth on Rd 2? Thanks

Correct

Gehrig didn’t play in 21?

For the $120M team, I am using the advanced search center. When I set the limits for 1B/100 AB, 2b/100 AB, etc. and then run the filter, I get this message.

Bad Request - Request Too Long


HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long.

Anyone else get this? Am I doing something wrong here?

Any help is appreciated.

this was happening to me in chrome last night - I used edge and it was fine.

I sent in a ticket about the HTTP Error 400. They said you just need to clear your cookies for WIS. I haven't done this yet but assume it will work.

Yep, fair enough. I was trying to throw out a couple well-known names to find out if we can do that but didn’t catch that detail. I’ll quit searching for ‘21 Gehrig for my team lol.

Using Edge now and it is working. Will clear cookies tomorrow for Chrome.

Thank you all for your responses!

For the 110 mil league - are we supposed to be sending both of our rosters to someone before entering the league?

Hold onto your second roster for now. I'll ask for them to be submitted all at once later

I thought building the 70 mil was going to be tough, but this 110 mil is really difficult. So much research has to be done for just one pick. Not to complain, but this one is going to be my last team in.
