RF,
Just trying to get a better grasp of the league. In season one we get a lot of AAA players who are real names. Then we protect one player. Then we have a draft. In season 6 we begin to steal. So I'm assuming that we never will have the opportunity to draft Musial or Mantle because they will already be assigned on someone's team in the initial AAA season. Is all of this correct?
Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff Gundam and ALL owners


Q ) In season one we get a lot of AAA players who are real names. Then we protect one player.

A ) No need to PROTECT ANY / STEAL does NOT start until the 6TH season.
BUT,
During Season 1 to Season 2 BREAK.
We will TWIST - ( 1 Player )
....... " ANY " Player from YOUR Season 1 roster.

Q ) Then we have a draft.

A ) NO DRAFT - DRAFT ALSO starts in Season 6

Q ) In season 6 we begin to steal.

A ) Correct. Season 6 will have ( 4 ) steps instead of just the one step for seasons 1 - 5.
SEE:
...................SEASON 5 / 6 BREAK

Q ) . So I'm assuming that we never will have the opportunity to draft Musial or Mantle because they will already be assigned on someone's team in the initial AAA season.

A ) You could assume that
BUT, We don't know if.
# 1 What players will be assigned to what teams
# 2 We don't know what players Owners will TWIST
from EACH SEASON.
# 3 EACH SEASON Owners will be getting a NEW selection of 60 / 20 AAA
# 4 EACH SEASON the AAA { Quality } Changes
..........SEE:
Each Season we will CHANGE the AAA QUALITY
This is to insure that we cover basically ALL PLAYERS sometime during their careers

AAA Season / Category Chart
WAY ABOVE AVERAGE....Season 1 & 10 & 11
BELOW AVERAGE............Season 2 & 9 & 12
AVERAGE.........................Season 3 & 8 & 13
ABOVE AVERAGE.............Season 4 & 7 & 14
RANDOM...........................Season 5 & 6 Final season 15

Jeff,
Thanks for your questions
I'm sure some owners had the same questions,

RF - I guarantee I will enter 2 teams on 11/5.
In the meantime I'd like to pick my two divisions, if that is not a problem.
I'll take the NLC and ALW. gracias Felix

If I am understanding right, the steal twist and draft is like it was in the Billionaire League. The difference is twist order is determined by whatever is stated for that season. 1 twist per team and twisted players are protected through season 5. Season 6 starts steal and order is based on your record in season 5. Each year you only have your twists and get new AAA players

Hi Randy, YES!
Difference is: Protect / Steal / Draft rounds don't start until Season 6 - SO, No reason to protect,
..................you can't lose any of your 1ST ( 5 ) TWISTS - UNTIL Season 6
Twist starts during the Season 1 / Season 2 break and it will be ( 1 ) of :
ANY of YOUR SEASON 1 - AAA players - SO, During the 162 game Season 1 is the time you will have to
....................decide which AAA guy your twisting for 15 seasons.
The interesting part I'm looking forward to is if 60 / 20 WAA AAA with REAL NAMES IS:
actually the players real names, so we don't have to figure out who they are.
THAT would suck.

Each year you only have your twists and get new AAA players
Again YES!
Each season you will add 1 twisted player - OR - MLB player as I'm calling them
Each season we will all get NEW AAA.
AAA Season / Category Chart
WAY ABOVE AVERAGE....Season 1 & 10 & 11
BELOW AVERAGE............Season 2 & 9 & 12
AVERAGE.........................Season 3 & 8 & 13
ABOVE AVERAGE.............Season 4 & 7 & 14
RANDOM...........................Season 5 & 6 Final season 15

AND OF COURSE, we will each Download the Twisted guy ( s ) after each season break - NO CLONES

For season 2 we will have the twisted player to use from season 1 correct?
He is already protected because there is no steal round until season 6 correct?
I twist John Clarkson. There are no clones that means no one else can use John Clarkson even as a AAA player correct?
In other words there will be 30 players, 1 from each team, that can't be used correct?
Will the AAA players we get from WIS, already have the clones removed?
or as Randy asks will we have a list?
Same questions pretty much just asked the way my small brain works.

Randy and Felix thanks for your questions.
It's always better to make 100% sure of what your doing, instead of guessing.

QUESTION: Will the AAA players we get from WIS, already have the clones removed?
................................................or as Randy asks will we have a list?

ANSWER: I don't know.
I will have 2 alphabetical player twisted lists. 1 - Position players & 1 - Pitchers
...............If,............ WIS does not remove the clones automatically from the AAA.
Player [ Alphabetically] - Owner/Team that twisted a AAA to MLB

SO, Yes, there will be ( 30 ) players on the combined lists heading into Season 2
and then ( 60 ) players heading into Season 3
ETC.
UNLESS - SIM programming does it automatically ( I hope )

picking players for roster - will be scrubs only. Maximum $ 1,600,000 BUT, Try to keep them under $ 1M
This will help you, if you make it to the T. O. C.
You won't get placed with a $ 255 M team and get knocked out in 3 games.

We are at 22 / 30
Gonzo has comitted to 2 teams on 11 / 5 = 24 /30
and
Need 6 more teams.
