Two things this morning. First, the completed 1929 St. Louis Browns roster. Secondly George Sisler was on the original Browns roster in the game but in 1929 he played for the Boston Braves. So I traded him to the Braves to be accurate.

8 out of 10, 107 seconds. Mediocre day because the time was messed up but the questions were not bad at all.
-
Not bad. Thank you. I have some too that I may upload here when I am finished with the teams. Next up the 1929 St. Louis Browns. That is for tomorrow. Now Devlin I have a question. the only difference that I see from these four installs is the season you created. For example the 1929.LGD for the 1929 season. Everything else is the same. Can I have the 1929, 1950s, mid80s-mid90s, mid90s and 2015.LGD in the same directory under one install and just choose what I want?

Since you had this for the 1929 league I have been concentrating on the 1929 rosters for the teams you did not do. I first checked the rosters on Oldtime baseball and baseball reference. It's not bad to do and I finished up the 1929 White Sox.
-
I got into the 1929 league and I edited one of the teams that were not completed, the 1929 Red Sox. Here is the finished product. It will take some time to look over the rest of the teams.

2 out of 10, 108 seconds. A good day for a Tuesday. No kidding. The only questions I got right were one baseball and one football one.
-
8 out of 10, 71 seconds. These were challenging today. The past few days I have been lucky. Tomorrow will be different.
-
A couple of things really quick Devlin. First you do a great job writing and communicating in English so don't worry about that. Secondly only in Larussa 3 and Oldtime baseball I have no joystick support. I can not figure it out. Hardball 5 does have it.
-
10 out of 10, 30 seconds. This was my best score in a very, very long time. I need it because we have those two general question days coming up and that's when I will fall back to earth.
-
I did come up with a question. How do you enable joystick sup[port in some games? Tony Larussa 3 and Oldtime baseball will not let me use one and I have DOSBOX for that.
-
It has been twenty-eight years since I was using DOS commands on a daily basis. You see back then computer users would have to switch between DOS and Windows and I liked DOS much better. Following Devlin's detailed and very helpful directions brought back some DOS memories and long story short I have all four versions working for me now. Thank you Devlin for this and your work on this. I was looking through some of the teams and they look outstanding.
-
My God I am getting close with his directions but I got to stop right now and take some Tylenol.
-
9 out of 10, 113 seconds. Yeah it looks like a good score but luck was with me today as I guessed on five of them and got them all correct.
-
Thank you and it is much appreciated. The first problem I had was when you had me type INSTALL from your directions. There is no file that says install. Then it went downhill for me.
-
The good, the bad and the ugly: First the good. Devlin was kind enough to upload these mods for us and by the look of those screen shots this is going to be a wonderful mod to play. The bad: I have DOSBOX and I have no idea how to to get this to work and I have read and re-read the directions. The ugly: I get so frustrated with myself when I can't follow computer instructions and the reason why is that I know it is user error and do not know how to fix it. If anyone knows how and has played one of these mods kindly let me know how you did it. Thank you.

10 out of 10, 44 seconds. I should be happy with this score but I could not get going today. Well Jim I took care of that! 😄
-
I'm close to it but a few preceded this game. Hardball 3 Tony Larussa 2 Hardball 4 Tony Larussa 3 Oldtime Baseball Hardball 5 I still play all of these games via DOSBOX and I love them.

Oh my God! 😲

4 out of 10, 116 seconds. Again they were merciful on me and gave me two baseball questions.

10 out of 10, 60 seconds. I needed a comeback today.

Building the "perfect" baseball game, a thread
Yankee4Life replied to Kccitystar's topic in The Bleachers
Yes, good idea. And thank you! -
1 out of 10, 148 seconds. If they did not throw a baseball question at me I'd of been shut out today. Two where-did-I go-to-college questions, what is the largest Samurai sword and two cricket questions were what I was up against today.

Do you still have these mods you made Devlin? I'd love to use them in my Hardball 5 game. I still play it! -
I don't know where to report an incorrect question because I got that question wrong too.
-
4 out of 10, 73 seconds. Like Laroquece said, oh boy. I did terrible. But look at this. I was screwed out of one question. They want to know who the pitcher was that Wertz hit the ball off of. Simple for me because I happened to listen to this game during the winter a few years back. It was Giants pitcher Don Liddle. He only pitched 1/3 of an inning and Vic Wertz was the only batter he faced. Marv Grissom came on to get the final 2 2/3 innings for the win. Get it right!! Thank you Retrosheet!
