Any chance of updating the lifters we can pick from? Some of these people haven't done a meet in years. I'm sure there are some people missing that should be added too.

I can't get my team up and running I keep getting this error message:

It can be updated. Would you email a list of lifters that you think should be added and those who no longer compete.

Is this happening when you choose a team name? It may have been a glitch. It all seems to be working fine. Can you try it again?

My initial thought is to start with all the #1 totals and benches in the 2008 lifter rankings for raw, single, and double ply. Then include any lifter that's within a certain range (either weight or percentage) of the #1 person. That'd get you a list of the top lifters of each style for 2008 which we could select.

That's a great suggestion for looking for additions for next year. The choices did get reviewed before this season. A less scientific approach than you suggested was used which probably led to some remaining that shouldn't have and a few not being included that should have. Those lifters can be added as requested.
