My order of preferences in building the themes:

$120m

$110m (would’ve been #1 if I could’ve used Ohtani and Mel Queen)

$70m

$100m

$255m

$80m


Im not a fan of “baseball-reference” research themes, and I don’t really enjoy “choose from box themes, so I didn’t really enjoy building 3/6 themes.I love the tournament and would play regardless of the themes. But just not preferred style and I don’t have the time to research like some do. I build one team and other than a couple small tweaks that’s all I get. So having to spend time researching on BR or look through boxes and create spreadsheets takes away time from researching players imo

I enjoyed all of them. I like the research themes a lot. The 3 team losing record is my favorite. The clone one was also fun.

For anyone new to the WISC, we will post a thread for people to share their strategies. It’s a lot of fun to write them up and see how others made their decisions. Start the writing while it’s fresh.

Reminder that tonight is the deadline to have 4 teams entered.

Here is where we stand as of today. If your information is incorrect or you have any questions, please let me know. Note that all penalty points are erased if you get all 6 teams in by next Monday, May 29.

Out of 96 owners, here's how many we have by number of teams entered:

6 teams: 46
5 teams: 15
4 teams: 17
3 teams: 6
2 teams: 5
1 team: 2
0 teams: 5

The good news is 81% of owners have at least 4 teams in. I've also heard from several of the owners with 0-2 who promise to be all in by the deadline.

i have a love/hate relationship with the 100m team... feel like i built 1,000 rosters and kind of liked 15 of them.

As of this morning, this is what my tracking shows. If you think we've made a mistake, please let me know.

My notes show that I entered my sixth team on May 19. I am listed above with five.

Just checking that all in compliance and/or simply haven't roster-checked one of 'em but also don't want penalty.

Thanks, WH

I see that your 6th team does show in our commissioner tracker sheet as checked, so I'll update that. Must have been missed previously. Thanks for letting us know!

We are up to 56 owners with all 6 teams in. Nicely done!

Here's how things look as of midday Sunday. It's possible all the commissioners haven't updated today, so if you see your total looks wrong please drop me a SM so I can confirm.

Reminder that the deadline for all teams to be entered is Monday, May 29. I'll ask the commissioners to make a final check on Tuesday morning before we assign any penalty points that would be permanent for owners who have not entered all 6 teams. At that point, we will also assess which owners need to be replaced in the tournament.

Out of 96 owners, here's how many we have by number of teams entered:

6 teams: 58
5 teams: 16
4 teams: 12
3 teams: 3
2 teams: 2
1 team: 1
0 teams: 4

My last team is in!
