Gbpa

I am writing to you all today to recruit for the Global Baseball Players Association. The GBPA is in it's first season, and was opened by Steve Thiele aka NealMusser. In the short time that we have been open, we have 98 players, and have accumulated over 1100 posts. We have ran through 7 sims thus far, which means we have simmed 14 weeks. The league activity is really starting to rise, and the GBPA is becoming a good and healthy atmosphere for all players.

We started the league off with six teams, which are the Colorado Pioneers, the Arkansas Moonshiners, the San Francisco Killer Ducks, the New Jersey Nightmares, the Toledo Bulldogs, and the Benton Harbor Riot. Each city and team name were chosen by their GMs, who are Mike Wilson, Chad Dorman, Brian, Tim Johnson, Nate Anderson, and Xander Busby. All of these GMs are good with OOTP, and have much experience. They all treat their players equally, and welcome new players to the league.

Our players union representative is VincentLee. VincentLee has done a fantastic job thus far, and is helping the players in their quest for more rights. VincentLee knows how to handle all situations, and has hired FordPrefect as the Deputy Union Rep., to ensure that the players union is ran properly and effectively. The players union is taking a step toward success under VincentLee, and I know that he will not stop fighting until no more fighting is needed.

For those of you who would like to check out the league website, it can be found at http://www.gbpa.cawunited.com Our webmaster is Chad Dorman, and he has done a great job at maintaing the website for me. The rules are a bit outdated, so please do not pay too much attention to them. The rules will provide a good outlook for the league itself, but they are not as detailed as the new set of rules, which should be up shortly.

The message board can be found at http://gbpa.proboards34.com/index.cgi. The message board is the league's main source for communication. The message board also contains a lot of helpful information for players considering joining the GBPA.

If you are interested in joining the GBPA, then please register on the message board. If you are registering with a AOL Account, then please e-mail me, or PM me on this message board, and I will set a temporary password for you. The reasoning behind that is the fact that Proboards and AOL do not agree, and you will not receive your password in a timely fashion. After you have registered, and received your password, create your player in the New Players forum on the message board. Inside the forum, is a thread designated for creating players. Just post all of your information in that thread, and I will create your player as fastly as I can.

If you have any questions, then feel free to ask. You can either PM me on this message board, e-mail me, or contact me on AIM/YIM.

Thanks!
