I'm in for whatever is decided- I prefer

Hard cap- I was in a league since the late 90s. We had a soft cap of 86 million. Plus if you got cash in a trade you could use it towards your cap. You had to be under the cap for free agent signings but during the season you could go over. I was in another league with a hard cap of 90 million and you had to be under the cap at all times. All teams should start with and equal fanbase and market size. The game will change it as the years go on. Although we may not be able to do this with existing history.

Fictional players - I prefer fictional players/No MLB players. I was in 1 league with no feeder leauge and just new players to draft in the ammys each season. I was in another league with college feeder leagues that went in the Ammy.

Scouts/Coaches - I prefer scouts and coaches off. 1 League that I was in these were off. A Second league scouts are on and coaches off. Since version 9 there are no longer a bunch of scouts and just 1 scouting dorector. This makes things a little more interesting with scouts. If we did play with scouts, I suggest that every starts with equal scouts are a point total that we can assign to whichever rating we prefer.

Teams- I prefer to be able to name your own teams and pick your own logos and jerseys.

Rating - I prefer 1-10 scale, 2-8 fine. I prefer to see actuals.

minor league - I like to have AAA,AA,A, and Rookie. No short season and only 1 of each level.

player editing- I don't prefer player editing. 1 league we never touched the players. In the other we got participation points for articles, logos, and various things done for the league. These points could be used to rename your team, change the stadium, or add points to a player (like increase defense or arm). I prefer not to mess with the players.

History- I prefer to start from scratch but simmed history is fine. I was in a league that did this. Makes for a better talent base in the inaugural draft.

DH- I prefer a DH. In real life I do not. But the AI doesn't handle this too well. Not sure if it is better in 10.

Please add me to your list- ski0625@yahoo.com
