Home Plate Baseball League - OOTP 6.5 League - Looking for One

Raderick · 03-17-2006, 10:36 PM

Hello all!

The Home Plate Baseball League, an OOTP 6.5 online league is looking for one person to join a very active and outgoing online league. We've been around since March 2004, and had shut down in August of 2005. In October 2005, upon much demand, the HPBL went back into business with plenty of the old members, along with new blood.

This is nowhere near the usual run-of-the-mill online league. Here are some of those reasons:

BOSI Database
The league plans to use CATO at the end of each season (We're having problems with the program, so this might have to be held off until OOTPB2006 comes out)
Custom Financial system. We use a revenue sharing, payroll expenses cap (not to be confused with a salary cap), our own three-tiered cash cap that is based on revenue from the previous season and a luxury tax system - all of these do that does what we want to achieve, keep the league competitive, give the small market teams the ability to make competitive moves, and let the large market teams remain large market teams.
Franchise Player System
Active owner base
Full and small league files for your Internet connection taste. The full league file is 14.12 MB and the small league file is 4.25 MB (as of Friday's sim)
All new rules are voted by the league owners.

The opening is for the Boston Red Sox. The team is currently in the rebuilding stages, having been involved with severe financial problems in the previous season. The previous owner did some stuff to build the team towards the future, then just dropped out. If you like to re-build one of the most storied franchises in baseball history, this is for you.

If you're interested in the league, you are welcome to send an e-mail at raderick24@pointatrad.com, or you can post on the Non-Owners forum. Either way, a copy of OOTP 6.5 or 6.12 is a requirement. We don't require owners to have an AIM username, but most of our trades are done using AIM. But if you don't use it for one reason or another, that is ok.
