I looking to make a comeback to OOTP online leagues. It's probably been nearly a decade since I last participated in online leagues. That's not to say I've been away from online sports games altogether, I spent four years running my own Madden "sim" league online up until the release of M25. The disappointing gameplay, lacking roster management options, and annoyances of running a league like that finally burnt me out and I decided to hang it up. But it's been a few months now and I have that itch to get back into online sports games. OOTP is my game of choice as roster management and being a GM has always been my favorite part of sports games, and obviously OOTP is the king of them all in that area.

I'm 27 years old, from Wisconsin. I work full time and have all my ducks in a row. Reliability won't be an issue. If for some reason I'm busy with work for a week or two and won't be able to participate, I'll make sure to let the commish know. But that should be a rarity. I have no intentions of ripping a team apart then ditching.

As for my preferences when it comes to a league, my main preference is one with a track record of reliability. There's no worse feeling that joining a league, putting in the effort on a team and then see the league fold. So a league with some history that's nearly full with reliable owners would be my top preference. I'd prefer a league with enough rules to keep things on the up and up, but not so many that teams are all micromanaged. I prefer sims to be 2-4 times a week. Only once a week is a little slow for my liking, and more than four maybe hard for me to keep up every sim. I'd prefer a league with real rosters, but if it's a long term, proven reliable league, I'm definitely fine with historical, fictional, etc.

I don't have any instant messengers at this time, but can download something if it's what the league uses for communication. Otherwise I'm savvy with message boards and am open to giving my email address for communication. I do enjoy writing articles for my team or the league as a whole when time permits. I also like doing other interactive things in leagues, although OOTP does alot of this automatically with how in-depth the game is.

Overall, I'd just love a straight up, drama-free league that I know is set for the long haul


I don't know what else to add, I probably said too much as is If I sound like a good fit for your league, send me a private message on here or send me an email through my profile on here. I'm looking forward to jumping back into OOTP online

Thanks
