Hello All,

After joining and playing a couple seasons in some progressives/regressives I though I'd try my own. If you're aren't interested, no big deal. Wish you good luck and hope we play with each other in the future.

The Two-Timing Progressive will be two 12-team leagues within one. Season 1 will start with the first two seasons in the database and progress two seasons at a time with each league leap frogging the other. Basically the NL will draft from and use players from 1885 in Season 1, then will use 1887 in Season 2, 1889 in Season 3 and so on. The AL will draft from and use players from 1886 in Season 1, then will use 1888 in Season 2, 1890 in Season 3 and so on. This will still allow us to use all players in the database, with no overlapping and get through the database faster. We won't be able to draft a full 25-man roster the first few seasons so any post-2000 $200K scrub can be used as filler.

Basics
No Cap($255 M)
No Waiver Wire
Average Minor Leaguers(10/4), will decrease to (6/2) when player pool increases
Trades Okay(Player/Pick trades only within League, ML trades okay for all)
6 Vetoes for Trades
Can Trade picks 1 season in advance
No Injuries
No DH
Yes to Transaction Deadline

Draft
Random draw for Initial Drafts(Snake Style)
Worst to First in future seasons
Bottom 2 Lottery(35 win floor to qualify)

Keepers
Unlimited(up to 25-not including IR)
Unlimited IR for missed seasons only

Stadium
Use real-life stadium(choose when signing up)

If I've forgotten anything please let me know.

Most(if not all) progressives draft *just rookies* in the next season's draft - is that the situation here?

Yes and No. Every season the draft class would include that seasons rookies and the previous seasons 2nd year players since we leap frog each season. Basically you'd draft from 2 rookie classes each draft.

So then the NL with the '85 players and the AL with the '86 players are both going to have the same players, just different years of each player.

 When he first joined or started all these leagues. I site-mailed him and asked jim straight out if he was the same person. He said no. It sure looks like he's the same person!
