Brand New OOTPv5 League!!

wwbl_commish · 03-10-2003, 03:58 PM

The WWBL is starting up. I used to Commish a league but have decided to get on it again with the WWBL since version 5 came out.

30 teams, real players, real teams, TotalMinors rosters

Basic rules used by the most successful leagues I have been in, a few tweaks here and there, but nothing confusing.

League requires much participation, we want the most active owners we can find, newbies or vets are welcome,

Temporary Site: http://wwbl2003.tripod.com/wwbl.htm

Email me at wwblcommish@yahoo.com

AIM: W3stw00d

No worries, dude. As many leagues as there are out there, there are going to be doubles. No Worries.

Good luck!

Why do some teams have the owner names while others just say 'taken'? Atlanta, as an example. Also, is it required to give our ID to you to join this league? I've heard of leagues that do this.

wwbl_commish · 03-11-2003, 03:18 PM

The taken teams are owners that have signed up for teams, but i don't have their AIM names yet, so i havent put them, they havent responded to my email yet, there is a possibility they could open up by tomorrow if no response is given....

The Order ID is not "required" but as of right now i still need a few more, so I'm prefering to accept owners that can currently provide me with them

wwbl_commish · 03-11-2003, 04:44 PM

Verification, some teams still open....if you send me an email, please include your AIM name or just contact me wit that

RSpicel · 03-11-2003, 05:35 PM

I was turned down because I couldn't give me ID. Was told if he recieves the required IDs and there is a spot left then I could have it.

I believe there are 3-4 teams available. So that means that 28 other owners have been accepted to this league without there ID
Numbers.

You know I wont lose any sleep over not being accepted into this league. Just dont tell me I cant get in because I cant supply my ID and then two posts above this one it says its not required but needed.

Thumbs down on this league and the commish.

wwbl_commish · 03-11-2003, 06:08 PM

There are not 28 unlicensed members, 8 have given me their ID, I did not expect to run into this problem, but it happens, the non-ID are in on a first come service, I wish I did not have to turn down people but ootpleagues.com is the best place to build an OOTP site and all I want is for the league to excel and do the best it possibly can, if you do not agree with me I'm sorry, and I'm also sorry you had to feel the need and go public with it.

Some teams still open if anyone is willing to give their ID to move the league, or if anyone has any free web space anywhere else on the web, free sites such as tripod just do not give the amount of space required to have a successful OOTP League

Steve York

Order IDs are not required but needed. So I asked for the Padres and was given the team as long as I provided Order ID.

Below is our email conversations. Like I said in last post. Wont lose any sleep of this league. Will just join another. Your loss.

not as of this moment, i need ID's to get the site moved, if I get the 12, I will allow anyone in the league, ill get back to you

Ah geez, he was in it before I decided to do the ID thing

bhlloy · 03-11-2003, 09:55 PM

Fair enough, the league needs 12 ID's to be able to move. You cannot run a league on Tripod, and I've spoken to the GM and he can't afford to pay for hosting. Nothing wrong with that.

What's the problem? If you're not losing any sleep over it why keep posting?
Out of interest why can't you provide an order ID?

He used it for another league, perfectly understandable.
