Although it's not on AtariMania, it appears at least SOMEONE had a disk image of Monday Morning Manager for Atari 8-bit. http://www.tuatarasoftware.com/baseballanalytics/2019/11/30/retro-computer-baseball-game-review-monday-morning-manager/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Monday Morning Manager is "out there" but there are various releases / editions of the game. I don't want to add the program to the database before more complete and accurate information is found. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_The Doctor__ Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) I see it it's lance hafner 3 in 1 football I see it!!!! Here's to our friends remembered and missed. That'd be archived before it shipped anywhere! Delivery services are worrisome today... Edited January 30, 2021 by _The Doctor__ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+MrFish Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 The good thing is, less than 3 years after the initial inquiry, a game that is obviously extremely rare has suddenly appeared, and we may all just be giving it a go soon -- thanks to some very devoted veterans of the Atari community. One thing to point out (again), is that the manual portion of the PDF I scanned and uploaded here (in this thread) should be identical to the manual that will be with the Atari disk(s) (since instructions for the 8-bit version are on page 2 of the manual included with the Atari ST version) (universal manual for a bunch of systems). The only part that may be different are the College & Pro Teams sheets; these are separate sheets that were included with my ST copy of the game (combined at the end of the manual PDF). So, at least initially, there should be no rush to scan the included instructional materials (aside from possible need of the College & Pro Team sheets). Also, I'd be glad to combine correct portions of the materials to make a PDF specific for the Atari version, if that will save some effort. I know you may just want to scan everything from the Atari package straight away and be done with it; which is fine. I'm just offering to help out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Allan Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I love when companies print manual for multiple platforms. It makes it a lot easier to hunt down a copy of the manual to archive and it possibly benefits more people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was pretty happy about that; because if an Atari version was found and no manual was with it, we'd still be set (with the possible exception of the teams lists; but those can be derived by peeking at the data files).

That's not the case here. This is a loved program on the C64, Apple II, and other platforms. I think it was just late in the life of the machine, and somewhat of a niche title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Lot's of great titles and utilities never made their way but to a handful of people back in the day. You'd be lucky to see anything listed in a newsletter or something. It's good to see it all for a multitude of reasons. I view some of the coding as an art form.

Even assuming some initial heat to start this thread derailment, none of it makes much sense to me. Rare game found, right? Take the win. If somebody is getting uppity then ignore them and still take the win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A text-based game that requires 64 KB. [Edit: Kinda neat that it will work with a 64 KB Atari 800. That's pretty unique and thoughtful.] Edited January 30, 2021 by MrFish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's anything like the box I have, in its construction, it's heavy duty -- compared to a lot of the flimsy boxes you find with other Atari software.

If the copy recently obtained for the Atari images properly, it will open up a lot of doors. Is that add-on you have supposed to be a utility or an additional compilation of teams?

+MrFish Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Yeah, ok... no way to tell from that. Well, if it is a utility, there is still a chance that it could be useful. Conversion would be necessary (of the BASIC program code); but it's not going to be some gigantic program like the game itself; so more palatable for converting. If it's just data, of course it can be used more easily with the Atari version. So, you'd need to get it into the hands of someone with a C64 setup, and the ability to image to a PC file. Might be possible to find someone here on the 8-bit forum, or use the C64 forum here on AtariAge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
