Use the newer one in my opinion. Can't see any harm in it.
GIMH can't quite grasp that cricket exists outside of the latest Ashes winning English team.Looking at the picks so far, I don't think anyone would be pissed off by the use of an updated roster. In fact, since Trott has been picked, I'm thinking people didn't quite grasp how old the old one was.
Decision needs to be made extremely soon though.
Yeah it does make things different.Looking at the picks so far, I don't think anyone would be pissed off by the use of an updated roster. In fact, since Trott has been picked, I'm thinking people didn't quite grasp how old the old one was.

Pretty negligible difference with all the players taken so far bar Trott I'd say.Yeah it does make things different.
How much impact would the new database have on existing players? For example, would Tendulkar be far more awesome in this version, and Clarke/Ponting much less?
Ruan Pietersen hates you ****!Pretty negligible difference with all the players taken so far bar Trott I'd say.
The important thing is that, irrespective of the time difference, the system I used in the second database is far more accurate and far more suited to a competition of 16+ teams. Reckon it'd feel more fun and accurate to have players by their current abilities anyway.
Well the database caters for the ability for you to select Bradman if you wish; he will just be massively hamstrung due to the length of his retirement and his death. I'll make sure that's clear though.Fair enough then. I can't edit the OP ofc though so you'll have to edit it yourself until (if) the subforum is set up
EDIT: Which you have done. You best clarify what "any player your heart desires" though, to make sure it's just limited to fairly recent players.
Nup. The database was designed for a 22-team competition of 18 players a side. Domestic giants would be very useful at that standard of cricket.Is the weighting of the players done via Test only?
I know you love me but putting my name in there twice looks suspicious.Since this has gonea bitvery messy.

Massively object to this.Er, by the way, since we're using a new database, I've decided I'll change my pick to Swann if everyone's fine with that (since no one else has picked him)... others can feel free to do the same if they so choose but looking at the names picked, I doubt it.
Sorry. You may throw tomatoes/eggs if you wish. Rocks are a bit too far though.
