Huse for season 1 I did originally have it that way
Then with the draft rounds in the early going, being restocked with the rosters from the
ELIMINATED TEAMS it became apparent that owners wanted to draft players first
and keep the originals for twists later.
Although, there is a limit on drafts and twists, and
Owners MUST DRAFT players to replace the scrubs needed to get some rosters to 25.
To keep it fair, Owners now have the choice of Drafting first and THEN
using twists later, OR since ther are 2 rounds each season break.
Draft one and twist 1
Actually we have had ( 1 ) owner - Twist in both rounds 1 and 2 and skip the draft completely
Hey, whatever it takes to improve your roster.
CHOICE is a wonderful thing.

I may be wrong, but, If I pick say the Louisville Colonels as my SUB .500 team
I really don't want ANOTHER Louisville Colonels team in the league.


I agree with this, but if you use the year.....33 Indians and 93 Indians........it isnt so bad, none of the players are going to overlap.

True. I'll tell you what. You join with 2 teams, 1 for NL and 1 for AL and I'll re-write the NO CLONE TEAMS RULES.
and if you were to take the '33 and '93 Indians. Which do I put in the NL?

I never thought I'd live to see the day that Grayfoxx didn't have an answer.

I didnt realize there was a question.................. actually, I didnt mean that I would take both..... I meant if someone took the 1933 Indians, then someone else could take the 1993 Indians...................and IF it was me, I wouldnt care which team went to the NL

I tell you what - you change the years to *after 1920* and I will not only enter 2 teams, but I will bring along a friend who will also enter 2 teams.

I am the founder of the league but, I do have owners to answer to.
I have just sent a site mail to all owners that have loyally and patiently stayed with the league
In the hopes of getting ( 9 ) more owners to fill it.
Your offer of changing the rules from " ANY " Player and " ANY " SUB .500 team
to Players and teams AFTER 1920.
In exchange for entering ( 4 ) teams and getting us to 25 of 30
has been submitted.
I am awaiting the VOTE via site mail.

RE: ( 21 of 30 IN )Owners I have a question? Need a VOTE!
Message:

I vote NO to limiting the league to players only after 1920. It is hard for the owners who have later picks to find teams that have a chance to advance because their team loses players on rosters of the teams picked ahead of it. An example is wanting to pick the 1923 Senators but lose Roger Peckinpaugh at SS and there not being another SS on the roster.

Besides Randy the vote was unanimous for NO, I received 0 Yes votes
Thanks anyway for the offer Grayfoxx

Not surprising, but it did save me the trouble of going out and trying to find a friend.

That sounds so sad.
We will still let you join.
This way you can prove your Deadball Era point.
You can win with Pedro - Maddux and the boys.
They always beat those deadball guys.

9 Seasons need 8
Elimination League from 30 teams to 12 teams
Drafts and twists

Start at 30 teams and eliminate 2 or more, after each season until we get to 12 teams left

Are you good enough to get to Season 9?
Join with 29 other " I'm the GREATEST " Owners
and see who is the GREATEST at the end of Season 9
Where the pack - thru eliminations - dwindles to 12 owners
3/12/2018 7:25 AM
We still need just 8.
The THM has us at 19 of 30 but, the owners ( - 3 ) for 22 of 30
Simply are using those teams elsewhere while we wait to get close .

Question.
In looking over the season schedule(1-9), I noticed that there is no draft/twist for season 9.
For such a detailed league, why would you want to play season 9 with the same roster you had in season 8?

DUH!
I just forgot to type it in,
of course there will be a draft and twist before Season 9 - The FINAL

Please forgive me, I'm getting ready to be put out to pasture.
