I can think of a reason against that... the OOTP creators are making money off the game, people who run OOTP leagues aren't making money off their unique ideas, and if a new league is in development (OOTP or not) any use of their ideas would influence the future value of that league (uniqueness, as described above)

<strong>If the idea is so revolutionary then use it and announce it and allow other leagues follow as they see fit. If it deserves it, other leagues using it would be a huge compliment to you.</strong>

That's one way of looking at it, the other way is above.<hr></blockquote>
