Honestly it was a bit more to take on than I thought. I either simmed the games way too quickly and sped through writing, so there was a lot missing. Or I took my time as intended, really enjoying the games, but then it took forever. And the more detail I gave the more of a "chore" it was, versus the fun of just playing. The less detail I gave the more less enjoyable this would be for others.
Not sure what is next. I originally didn't have anything planned. But I started to feel cheated when the big guys likes the 1906 Cubs were immediately knocked out. So I had an idea of a league with these teams set up like below:
Teams that made the Sweet 16 in the top tier. Teams that made the 2nd round in Tier 2. The first round losers randomly split into Tiers 3 and 4.
Each Tier is 2 leagues, 2 divisions of four teams each. Two rounds of playoffs. Promotion / Relegation each year (win your division go up, last place in division go down).
The fun thing would be that because there are so many good teams that missed out we could start to introduce some of them as new teams into Tier 4 in place of those relegated teams.
I love the idea, and will likely do it, just not starting it up yet. And if/when I do, I think the updates will be much more spread out. Maybe each month in-game? Really not sure yet. But thanks for following!
