Elimination League-4 season league---5 in! Topic

Welcome to "The Elimination League"

This league requires participation in 4 seasons.  Please do not sign up unless you can make the commitment to play all 4.

Elimination League will play Season One with 24 teams(Standard WIS format, 24 teams, IL play, 8 playoff teams). The teams with the 4 lowest win totals will be eliminated for Season Two which will be a 20 team league(format F, 20 teams, IL play, 4 playoff teams).  Once again the 4 worst teams will be kicked to the curb for Season Three a 16 team league(format E, 16 teams,IL play, 4 playoff teams). 4 more eliminations take us to the final Season 4 for a 12 team battle(format D,12 teams,IL play, 2 playoff teams).

When 24 owners have signed on for Season One, we will hold a 2 round snake style draft in which all owners will select a pitcher and position player that will be exclusive to them when building their roster. The order for the draft for Season One will be determined by random.org.

A  new 2 round draft will be held before the last 3 seasons. Draft order will be determined by the regular season W-L record with the team with the best record drafting first, 2nd best record drafting 2nd and so on.

After you have your 2 exclusive players you can finish off your roster with any players not drafted.

120 mil salary cap for Season One
110 mil salary cap for Season Two
100 mil salary cap for Season Three
 90 mil salary cap for Season Four

Is there any sort of incentive for winning the whole thing?  Regardless, I'll give it a shot if you can get it off the ground.

Sounds like a good idea. I'll work on it and if anyone has any thoughts post them here

If everybody donated a $5 gift certificate there would be a lot of potential payouts...  Maybe $15 for the league 1 and 2 winners, $25 for the league 3 winner, $15 for the league 4 runner-up, and $50 for the league 4 champion?

Or if you're willing to sacrifice half of the league founder credits you could just throw 2 free teams to the winner of league 4.
