However, now that I think about that, please disregard:

Respond to all topics in a single post if you would prefer...

Topic 1: Roster Sizes - 35, 55 or 60?
Topic 2: Game Version - v1.51 or CE 4?
Topic 3: Finances - Is $125mil a reasonable amount for all teams?
Topic 4: The DH Rule - DH in 1 of 2 leages, DH in the 1 and only league, or no DH at all?

Please submit your answers as soon as you are able.

I'm still looking forward to this league. Should be alot of fun.

Topic 1 - 55 or 60 is good with me
Topic 2 - my vote is for CE4
Topic 3 - $125 mil seems ok - I was thinking more like 100 or 110 to keep us on our toes.
Topic 4 - No DH

I was aiming for $100 mil too, but I'm not getting that figure as an option. I'll tweak the percentage a little more to see if I can come up with that.

Just FYI, CE 4 (and it's predecessor Community Edition 1 through Community Edition 3) are free upgrades.

My preferences, though I'm okay with anything and am not going to suddenly withdraw or some nonsense if it goes a whole other way:

1) 55 or 60 roster size
2) I'm only familiar with 1.51 but I'd be willing to upgrade to CE 4 and give it a go; I just might have a slight learning curve depending upon the changes.
3) I could agree with CBeasley on something a bit less than $125 mil. But I'm not very concerned about it one way or the other at all.
4) I'd prefer either DH in only one of two leagues or no DH at all.

Will we be able to send you a draft profile before you do the draft?
I know getting everyone together for player by player picks wouldnt work.

Something like:

Pick 1 - best overall starting pitcher
Pick 2 - best overall hitter
pick 3 thru 4 - best hitter focus on speed and defence

and so on.

thanks,
Chris

Once I have uploaded the initial association (pre-draft), each GM downloads it, creates their draft profile and then uploads that. When I have everyone's profile (or at a set deadline date) I will run the draft, then Spring Training.

At this point, I will allow some time for GMs to shuffle and organize their rosters. Then, we begin simming. In fact, that's topic 5...

Topic 5: Sim Session Length & Frequency - 4/19/2007 1:13:02 AM

Status: offline 		Topic 5: Sim Session Length & Frequency

I believe a sim session should cover Sunday-to-Saturday and that these should be simmed either 2 or 3 times/week:

Sim Length - Option 1: Sunday-to-Saturday
Sim Length - Option 2: Seven calendar days.

Sim Frequency - Option 1: Mondays and Thursdays
Sim Frequency - Option 2: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Your thoughts...?

We have room. Currently there are 6 human-controlled teams in a league that will consist of 10 teams; 2x 5-team divisions. That leaves four slots open and now your Dallas Stars have filled one of those slots.

Kindly go over past posts and submit your answers for the five Topics. Thanks and welcome in!

Status: offline 		Hi chaps, I would be very interested in joining this. I have no previous online experience of this game, as I am new to it, but I was previously a member of an online football management game for three years until it disbanded.

I'd have to state up front that while I have followed baseball for about five years and understand the rules of the game, I may well miss things when it comes to the nuances.

Being in the UK, baseball is shown here twice a week, at 1am, and I've had to pick the rest up from reading articles on mlb.com. I believe the best way to learn, for myself, would be to play in a league (especially a fictional one where in-depth knowledge of existing players is not needed) where I could benefit from others' knowledge, rather than playing solo games where I may miss out on a lot of the subtleties.

However, if you feel I am too inexperienced for the league, I would understand.

Consider yourself in. You'll never gain any experience if you're never given a chance to learn and play. You may have to deal with more obstacles that other, experienced GMs, but if you're willing to work around this-- so am I.

Register and jump onto the message board and we'll talk more there.

Thanks, have joined that board although there are no threads yet.

I've also just noticed that CE5 has now been released.

I'm still waiting for a response from darkchu on my request for admin rights on the board. Darkchu has done us the favor of setting up the board and I simply need access to work the threads into topics that we will use.

As far as CE 5 is concerned, I'm running PureSim on 2 PCs; 1 at work, 1 at home. The home PC has v1.51 while the work PC has CE 5. The only real topic that we're unclear on is the game version to run. I really want CE 5, but we're still on the fence with this.

Also, we have 3 of our potential GMs signed up... it would be great (but not required) to have everyone signed up.
