In 2 of my games so far, the sim (i'm guessing) has started my back up. Both games were loses, but also his record is not showing this, but stats do? ?? Hope it can be cleared up, so I can start my back up when I want to!!!!

Sadly it's a glitch with the sim. It *should* work itself out the next time lines are uploaded. I can assure you that neither of us are putting the backup in there, that'd be really really mean. I haven't checked since I'm not simming right now, but when was the last time you sent in lines?

I've found that if you (any of us) put in lines that say "roster incomplete" many odd line changes occur. Try putting in a full roster, see if that works. I've done that the last little while with no problems. Especially helps in game two of a two game night.

I sent in lines 2 days ago, and in the last sim, my backup started both games and 2 of my starters were scratched?? Things were ok thelast game before these last 2. SIM is starting to BUG me.

I noticed something now. My back-up had played 178 minutes thus far, played 5 more min last sim, and now has only 149 min of playing time.

Yah the FHL sim has a few glitches, but they usually work its way out over the course of the season. Alternatively, you could post these glitches on the FHLsim message board and see what others suggest...

Sim GLITCH is still starting my back up randomly. So far my back up is 1-3-1. At this rate, no way in hell I will be in the playoffs. This is getting old fast.

Kevin, the bad news is that it's happened twice in the last nine games:
251 BLACKHAWKS 4 JETS 3 Aebischer 242 JETS 2 CANADIENS 1 Aebischer 224 KNIGHTS 1 JETS 1 (OT) Aebischer 215 CANADIENS 4 JETS 3 Budja 205 JETS 0 CRUSADERS 1 Aebischer 195 JETS 1 RACERS 3 Aebischer 177 SENATORS 4 JETS 0 Aebischer 168 JETS 4 CANUCKS 1 Aebischer 155 JETS 4 KNIGHTS 1 Aebischer 140 BLADES 2 JETS 2 (OT) Budja (Sorry if that's a spoiler)
Thing is, since I started doing the sim, I've only touched your lines twice, once when you sent em in on the 8th and today when I made d**n sure that Aebischer was starting in net for you. Interestingly enough there were no changes between the lines you sent in and the look-over I gave them today. Which leads me to my next point:
I am not a programmer. I'd like to be, but I'm confident if I cracked the software open and attempted to find what is causing this problem, I'd create more problems than I'd fix. From what I've seen on the FHL forums this appears to be random (you're not the only one it's happened to), possibly tied to the version of GM Editor you're using, but there's no way to be absolutely sure and no one seemed to have a definite answer to what causes it.
Which brings me to the worst point of all:
After we check the lines, usually by loading them manually into the sim when new lines are sent in, the second last step is to sim. FHL doesn't run any checks at this point, it just simulates the games with the lines we've added - or left alone. After that, we output the pages and update the site. There's no way to tell if the sim is going to glitch out until after the games have been simulated.
Point is, yes it is annoying as hell. We've been doing what we can to make sure the proper goalies are in place. But if the gods of the FHL (or demons, I call 'em demons) choose to for whatever reason to start your backup, we have no control over it.
I will, however, continue to pester the Demon programmers of the FHL in the meantime and hope to drum up an answer.

Maybe call up Cam Ward for a game, send down Budja....just an idea, not sure if something simple like that would work.
