Hey. As the title and the fact that I'm posting in this thread implies, I'm looking to join an Out of the Park league. Now, before you commishes leap on me like starving dogs on a ribeye steak (since I know you want to), I should make it clear what I want.

I have never been in an OOTP league before. I only vaguely understand how they work. I need a league that will tolerate my foibles and let me figure out what's going on. For what it's worth, I have no plans to go nuts firing off random trades and getting rid of all my best players for prospects.
I prefer fictional or historical-fictional leagues. As a proud Canadian, having a Canadian team available or letting me move the team is a plus.
I have Things To Do, so I prefer a slower simming pace and/or a league that won't can me if I don't send instructions in all day every day.
An IRC room or some sort of optional chat room for sims is a plus.
I prefer rules that are at least in the vicinity of real baseball rules. No 50-man active rosters or any crap like that.
I detest leagues that let you increase the attributes of your players for being active/sucking up to the commish better than anybody else/what have you.

As for what I'd give you in exchange for putting up with all my crap?

I've never been in an OOTP league before, but I've been in my share of Eastside Hockey Manager leagues, so I know a thing or two about the general concept of league play.
I've done some web and graphics work for those same leagues (you can see some of my work at Eastside Hockey Super League - We Will Astound You and from my own league at Pommpie's Über Hockey League), so if you need any help with that, I can lend a hand.
I'm one of those guys who makes jokes about things pretty well all the time. Whether this is good or bad depends on your perspective.
I tend to have a consistent plan with the teams I run. I don't tear it all down one week and load up for a playoff run the next. In fact, I try not to tear it all down at all, simply because winning is fun.

If you're interested, feel free to PM me or, more reliably, e-mail me at me@benmassey.ca with what your league is all about.
