Fictional Ballpark Master List

BigCity · 02-13-2005, 09:47 AM

This thread superceeds the previous fictional ballpark discussion.

As I was working on updating my old fictional ballparks and reviewing Teflon's work for ideas - it came to me that there was no "one, single, place" where one could go to see what was available in the fictional ballpark arena. Is anyone aware that there are currently 60 fictional ballparks available ??

So, the link below will bring you to the Fictional Ballpark Master List at BigCityBaseball. It is a gallery that will make it as simply as it gets, as far as seeing what is available from a collection of thumbnails - and a single click will bring up a full size preview. A right-click will give you the option to download that ballpark to your machine.

Teflon's ballparks are labeled with the original names he gave them. My past creations are noted and named, and the new ones are labeled as FBB01 and above. PS: FBB04 is actually someone else's creation. I can't remember who, but I liked it, so I reversed the view horizontally and included it here.

I will add new ballparks to my series as time goes on, and plan on adding at least 10 more before the release of OOTP 7/FE. That will increase the size of the collection to 70 ballparks.

Henry, would it be possible to add the recommended park factor settings to those pages? Or a link to a .txt file or something?

Not all park factors are available for all stadiums - and there is a lot of disagreement whether to use specific ballpark factors or the generic figures (100s). One thing that is CRITICAL in using anything but the generic numbers is that all ballparks used in a particular league MUST average 100 for the league, or else the variance will be reflected in your league totals.

In other words, if you have your league totals are set to produce 1,000 homeruns, and your ballpark factors for HRs average 105%, then your league will produce 1,050 homeruns.

Because of this, providing you with suggested ballpark factors - when you mix and match ballparks from different creators - will effect your league total results.

Teflon's New Bridge Street ballpark added to Master List.

BigCity · 02-14-2005, 11:04 PM

Tonight I added 11 ballparks originally created by BlueTurf and 3 previously missing creations from Teflon. As of now, the collection consists of 78 ballparks as follows...

19 by BigCity (BC)
11 by BlueTurf (BT)
13 by DreamTeams (DT)
35 by Teflon (TS)

I think I've got all the right creators, but if you notice any errors, let me know.

Just a few corrections, Henry:

These all belong to Teflon...
Ellsworth
Gatewood
Harbor
Liberty
Mercury

These belong to me (DT)...
Wimbley
Delta

Just wanted to make sure the right guy get's the credit for his work.

GForce · 02-14-2005, 11:28 PM

And none of them belong to me, because I have no artistic talent whatsoever

Great work, guys!

Wow. I thought I had collected all Teflon's parks. This is the first time I've seen this one. Thanks!

EDIT: Oops! Teflon is back and this is his latest creation. Fantastic!
