Overlords Baseball - Historical League Seeking 2 Owners

bdogrover · 09-07-2008, 03:54 PM

Name - Overlords Baseball League
Website - Overlords Baseball
Forums - Overlords Baseball :: Index
Type - Historical league
Rules - League Rules
Number of teams - 16
OOTP 9 required

Currently available teams:
Cleveland Indians
Philadelphia Athletics

We started our league in 1930 and are currently in the 1939 season. We sim fast - three times a week (Sun., Tue., Thur.), two game weeks per sim. It takes us a little under two months to finish a season and the resulting offseason. Both the Indians and Athletics have lost their owners during this past offseason.

We have a steady Commish presence, with myself and Kelric, who co-commished the 4OTP and was a founding commish of the GGNL, as well as participating in two other OOTP leagues over the last six years.

We're hoping to find experienced owners who have a history of participating in their leagues. We'll take someone who just gets their exports and draft lists in on time, but participating in league discussions in our forums once you're in the league will be nice as well. Anyone willing to write occasional league articles or updates would be great, but we don't ask anyone to do that if they don't want to.

If you're interested in joining us, please post in this thread or PM me. If you've played in OOTP leagues in the past, please let us know which ones, as we'd like experience online league players who know what they're getting into.

Athletics have been taken, but the Cleveland Indians are still available.

Our Cubs owner is leaving after our current season as well.

I have been in this league since the start (1930) and if you like the history of the game and a league that is well run, never misses a sim and is very competitive this is where you want to be. Kelric and Bdog are excellent commissioners and the league has a great core of owners many there since the start.

Being the defending Champion Chicago White Sox I welcome any of you to try and pry the trophy out of my hands.

Just an FYI -- the Indians have been claimed and we have parties interested in the Cubs for when they become available.

I hereby accept this challenge!

The Athletics have been taken. I believe someone still has a claim in on the Cubs for the end of the season. BDog has been running this owner search, so he can be more specific if he ever comes back to this thread.
