APBA GO Forums

@apba__dave Anytime I see something glitchy like that, I send details of it to GO Support. When GO first launched in 2016, there were quite a few little gremlins like that in the game engine. Over time, the majority of them have been fixed. But I’m sure a few (like this one) still exist.
I have found the GO Support team to be very appreciative of hearing about glitches like this, and that they’re usually resolved by the next update. Sending them a screen shot of the issue also seems to be very helpful.

This is my first experiment with the Custom Teams and I must say I am really impressed. The search engine is really neat. Is there a limit on the number of custom teams that one can create?

Thanks now i see it very cool nice feature not sure why it looked confusing to me

Thanks Jeremy
Kind of cool that way to be able to compare and see the kind of tweeks they made with R sets
appreciate all you do for us

@falcon4fever Hi

Active flag toggles that game’s inclusion in the Collection. On -> stats are included; Off -> stats are not included.

I believe that’s all it signifies.

Thanks,
Jeremy

@falcon4fever Hi!

Yes, it’s all on me to fix and I am hoping to have it rectified on Monday.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Jeremy

@TSBL I use the Ohtani rule and it still doesnt work.

@HOFfridge thanks
nice to see guys who don’t hit into DP are rewarded. I know they like to pile on the 24’s when they cant get down the line!

@APBA-GO-Jeremy

Podcast was very informative! I hope John continues to keep us updated on GO and APBA in general.

It appears the players not showing up are multi team players during the year. JD Davis, Robinson Cano, Juan Soto are the players I have seen have this problem.

I deleted the players in question and then added them back to the teams. When setting up a game the players appeared.

I just thought of something else which would be really helpful (for me anyway) on the Game Summary slate:

Injuries

I am thinking my next project will include a lot of AutoPlay solitaire games (in addition to some games I will roll myself). But I just realized that carry-over injuries will be hard to find that way.

My best chance will be to look carefully at the final box scores for each team. And if a weird player substitution catches my eye, I will then have to scroll through the entire Game PBP to confirm what happened.

I really like having injuries be a factor in my tournaments. In real life, they’re a big part of the game. And having any injuries noted on the GO Game Summary would be really helpful. :+1:

Hello,

I created some steps to help me replay the Rays 2022 season using the collections feature and wanted to share my results. It does require a little work upfront, but it is worth it.

Goals:

Record stats for individual gameplay with the capability of adding notes and real-life results data. Roll up individual game data into a season bucket (Collection). Be able to retrieve any given game by the actual sked date.

Note: You’ll need access to Excel or a spreadsheet to import comma-delimited data. These instructions do not cover the Excel instructions.

I will replay the Rays 2022 season on APBA GO for this example.

Navigate to retrosheet.org and download the 2022 game log data file. Import the file into Excel. I only used the first 13 fields in the dataset – they are described below. Filter for TPA or your team’s 2022 schedule
a. I used the following columns but use what you want.
i. Date, Game #, Day, Visiting team, VT League, VT game #, Home team, HT League, HT game #, VT team score, HT score, # of outs and Day/Night indicator.
b. Save your Excel file. Navigate to APBAGO Create a collection called 2022 Season Replay – TB Rays Create a collection for single gameplay. I added the actual game date and scores to the collection description. This is a copy-and-paste function from the retrosheet excel file to the collection description field. You can add game notes in the description area. Play a solitaire or micromanager game. Upon completing the game, assign your game to the 2022 season replay collection and the individually named game day collection.

I hope this helps anyone trying to organize their gameplay using APBA GO.

Regards,
Sean - RaysFan

@alecotto75 What you provided was kind of what I was expecting as far as game play goes, but what about administration … things like league set-up, reports (standings, league leaders, team and player reports).

I mean I will end up writing a detailed document on all the steps I went through to get my replay started, but that won’t be for another six months (after I finish my BBW 1920 replay). I am just doing some scouting right now.

Thanks again,
