Thanks to both of you.

Mortimer, I actually got realllllllly into FM for quite some time. I learned a lot about the players and i wasted days of my undergraduate career playing that game. That's kind of what I am hoping OOTP will be for me--an oasis of sorts.

I like the european idea. I'd be interested in trying to set that up and play it out. Seems like a very fun idea. I am going to be putting 13 on my windows computer so that way I can make sure I am on the same page as everyone else.

Any further ideas are still appreciated. I'm using the MLB setup with fictional teams, but i think I should maybe pick a barebones set of rules and start from there.

What do you guys do in terms of games? Do you stick with the 162? I think I would like the GM side of the game more if there were less games/more off seasons (or half-seasons). I am big on making trades when I know I am out of it, so that I can get prospects, and things of that ilk.

Just trying to get some ideas of what to do. The new simulation mode for 13 looks pretty sweet.
