If you get to 24 I'm in.
If we don't get to 24, we're not playing.

AAA is auto-assigned, fictional names, Random level (can be anything from Way Above to Below Average).
The top of random is significantly lower than the top of WAA.  The bottom is also higher than the bottom of BA, but not by very much.

So it is. Here's the list posted in the AAA - Just the Charts thread.

SALARY
 RANGES:
Below Average          364,170 to 1,574,999
Average (OL)          1,575,000 to 2,599,999
Above Average       2,600,000 to 3,874,999
WAA                         3,875,000 to 9,651,076
Random                  1,575,000 to 4,425,000

Really?  I thought it went a littlee bit below average.  Apparently not.  I'm actually fairly certain that chart is wrong, though, because I don't think there's a hard price cutoff; IE I think some guys at one level might actually cost a little bit more than some guys at the next level.  Maybe I'll look at it later.

I'll play by the way.  Never been my favorite league, but any LIVE league with 24 teams these days is something special.  I'd probably like this one a lot better if it was simmed - a whole lot less painful if you get stuck with one of the uber-low cap teams then.

Au contraire! Some of my most enjoyable moments in WIS have been beating the occasional $100M team with the Cream Puffs. Great fun if a sputterer like Fiireballers has them. There will be enough 2-team owners that you won't have to worry about getting a team you really don't want, unless there are more than 4-5 of those. Welcome!

My favorite season was with the Baltimore Bunters.  I won 105ish with a 60 million cap team and actually made the playoffs and won the WS while missing on one of my goals...it was a really tough goal.....top 10 in runs scored or something.  I was winning with Rick Manning and Freddie Patek...lol.

I got Fiireballers with the Bunters, too. That might have been even more fun. He kept insisting that D- arm Piazza should be fine, and I kept running Raines, Pedroia and McGee from first to third on steals every time they got on. Used short-season Ellsbury to pinch run for anyone else who got on. When Jacoby scored on a steal of home and then homered to lead off the next game, Fiireballers flamed out. I didn't make the playoffs, but got my money's worth.

Can we rename our AAA to real names?
8/16/2012 9:27 AM
You can give them whatever name you want.
