Re: Voting Preference for All Stars and Awards

Seems to me there are several levels of commitment to manual awards: 1) Fanatical - Spend plenty of time pouring over the data and likely going back and forth between Statslab and OOTP to check stats ( You know who you are ). 2) Casual - Reviews the Statslab material and casts a vote based mainly on...

Re: Contracts for Minor League Players

My Slack post, slightly expanded, so my opinion is immortalized here forever! For what it's worth... :lol: Contracts are a thorny topic, especially involving young players (usually studs that are trying to be locked up max term for pennies on the dollar). My 2c is that - even though they take stride...

Owen Sound Absent

Guys,

Will be away from the game Friday, July 6 through Thursday, July 13.
I will have access to Slack, forum, just NOT the game.

Hope that doesn't cause issues for the Commish and I hope my team continues to perform this week! :D

Re: Player Opt Out Contracts

This is new territory for me. Any other league I've been in has never had a rule about opt-outs. On one hand I think it's a good thing to push the envelope on these kinds of things to expose what the AI can and cannot deal with in OOTP. If humans find a way to blatanly exploit the AI, then that's wo...

Re: GLBL - Inter-league Play Discussion

I have proposed this schedule before and I will outline it again here. Many members of the league wanted to keep the number of games at (or as close as possible to) 140 and my proposition sets the season at 138 games. Eighteen games against each of the five teams in your league for a total of 90 ga...

Re: GLBL - Inter-league Play Discussion

Two 2-game series versus teams in the other league? You're really testing my aesthetic sense, there. I still think the best option is a 136- or 146-game season: 6 games vs. teams in the other league (3H/3A), and either 20/22 games vs. teams within ones league (either 10H/10A or 11H/11A). However, I...

Re: GLBL - Inter-league Play Discussion

In short: Inter-league - Yes Games - 140 The league is small, so 140 without inter-league means a very steady diet of five teams, at least this would broaden the horizon. I am sensitive to the 140 games being the benchmark now and to uphold that number (again the league is small enough) so records c...
