It’s great to have a post like this which discusses the theories behind different types of leagues and what makes them more or less successful. This forum is routinely filled with the activity of leagues forming and changing, but rarely have I seen posts that deal with the issues behind the rise and fall of leagues.

I would be neat to have a checklist of things that a commissioner needs to do when starting a league. Most people who are motivated to start a league are already familiar with what it takes. But something as a guideline (for beginners and veterans) to help commissioners remember all the details. Then again we wouldn’t want a list that made it look too easy to start a league and tempt people into doing it frivolously.
