Hope to see you join our ranks!

I have been in this league since it started and it is one of my favorite leagues I have ever been in. Great activity, commish is always available to answer questions and listen to suggestions. League has moved very smoothly and quickly with no problems. You have the option of setting up your teams the way you want so join up. You won't regret it.

Still looking for 3 GM's! Don't miss out!

Filled out the registration. Would be interested in El Paso.

Team
 

Registered, would like to take Jersey, as I am from there :-)

I'm registered and I'd take any of those teams :)

I have received several applications, Jersey and Chicago are the remaining teams, will get in touch with the ones interested who replied in this thread. Check your emails guys!

All teams have been filled. Thanks to all the GM's who applied!

We have one team open right now. We are currently in the offseason so this is the best time to join to start building your team your way.

Don't miss out!

We have just started our 3rd regular season and looking for GM's to fill a few available teams in the league.

Check the first post of this thread for more info and how to register!

Still a few teams available! Join now! You won't be disappointed!

I'm very interested in joining but I have a question. How often do you guys switch to the next game? Every year? Every other?

This is a great league, very competitive group of GMs active on Slack. Commish does a great job running it.

That's great and I'd love to join but could the Commissioner answer my question before I make a decision to purchase this game? It seems like a fun league (I love the fictional aspect of it) but I am not entirely fond of the idea of buying a new game every year to stick around in the league... its not a make or break decision but one that I'll need to really consider.

I am not the commish but I do know this year we switched games but waited till after the all star break so everyone could get it at half off for the one's who didn't purchase right away.

If that's how it'll usually be then I'm good with that. I think I'll be purchasing this tonight then and put in an application. Thanks.
