With AAA or without AAA, THAT is the question. Topic

To adlorenz and all those who care,

Would it be possible to post in this thread the OL numbers passed MLB130938?
Here's why.
After reading about the no AAA update I waited some time before entering an OL wanting to make sure that the team drafted with no AAA in mind would indeed join a no AAA league.
Once entered, there was discussion in the league's chat among owners and nobody really knew what to expect, AAAs or no. ?Turns out we did get some.
Alright, it was frustrating for those of us who had drafted for no AAA but I'm sure most of us understood that this was a transition period and that it wouldn't go without a few bumps.
Adam himself wasn't really sure until that post of his where he explained that OLs already entered WOULD have AAAs and was kind enough to give us the first league number that wouldn't have them in.

I did join that league, 130938 and all was fine, we even discovered that we were given an extra 1.6 million to draft from WW to make up for AAA loss which all owners appreciated.

But here's the thing.
Next OL I joined, was number 130105 which is 833 leagues UNDER the first OL without AAA...
So, in that league's chat again, owners discussed trying to figure out if we'd get AAAs or not. Some said no, others said yes because of the league number. But no one seemed to really know for sure as it appeared that having such a huge number of leagues already opened seemed almost impossible. But as the league was locked and we ended up with AAA players, we figured that indeed there are 800+ leagues already open and sitting there waiting to be filled...

I'll admit that I was pretty annoyed at that. I micro manage my teams, I don't draft dozens at a time using auto managing set-ups. Two reasons, one, I can't afford to draft that many teams for financial reasons, two, what I really enjoy is micro-managing and this is time consuming so I can't do more than 4 or 5 at a time to really appreciate it. So every single team I draft, I invest myself into fully for two months.
I had already ended up with a first team in a AAA OL which I hadn't drafted for, now I just wasted another one because it still wasn't clear and no owners was really sure. I had tried manually entering a few league numbers above 130938 but always got an error message that the league number didn't exist so I just entered the default OL which turned out to have AAAs...

So please guys, I would really appreciate if those of you already sitting in OLs over MLB130938 could post which league numbers you're in at the moment. I won't be entering any other OL until I'm sure they won't have AAAs. I'll leave AAA OLs to those who are mourning them, a win-win situation.
Thanks.

Not the reply I was hoping for but, oh well, while there's still a glimmer of freedom of expression left, you're welcome. I won't be canceling you I promise.

Thank you FS. You're an upright chap. So, I'll count on you not to try to fly me to any private island in the Caribbean, too.

as there is still AAA i was going to try a stars and scrubs team. but was wondering what the min. # of players on a roster could be. in another league when perusing the WW boards this message appeared:
  1. You have the minimum number of players (22) on your active roster
so am i correct in thinking i could draft 14 great players (that meet the 4800/1200 requirements); & 11 scrubs that get me 25 roster spots. then when the season starts, drop the 11 scrubs (11 x $200,000 = $2.2M) bring up all 8 of the AAA, that will keep me at the 22 min? (i could even get trickier, and draft 13, and the 14th guy as a $200,000 + $2.2M waivers; can get me a $2.4M player

is this about right?
