This is a truely outstanding league operated by a top notch Comish who is totally committed to OOTP excellence. The GM pool is populated by some very energetic and active owners. The relegation/promotion theme creates great drama. This league just gets better every year.

WBH baby!!!!

If you are looking for an online league you may as well stop now because this is it! I was an absolute noob to both the game and online leagues, and I just can't say enough good things about the WBH. The commish has been extremely helpful answering all my questions (I've had a lot), and the league runs like a clock. There has never been a sim that was missed or delayed.

The promotion/relegation aspect keeps everyone competing all season long. At our recent trade deadline we had a GM pick up two SP for the stretch run despite being 10 games out of first because he didn't want to get relegated. At the deadline, we had more than A DOZEN trades...and that's just on the day itself. Deals came in right up until the last minute.

Anyways, this leagues kicks rear.

I believe we are still looking for at least 1 immediate owner for the Nagasaki Blues. This league really is the best around. It is incredibly active with guys posting team/player/league stories on the forum daily, and I am even working with 9 other members on initiated "GM Awards" for next season.

Come on down! You won't be disappointed.

Much like the other guys have said...This league is top notch and with a commish that is dedicated to it succeeding has to tell you how much time he invests into the league. We are growing and will be looking for new GM's in the near future. Come and join and reserve your spot now.. You won't be disappointed. If you're a noob to the OOTP game and online league world, this is the place for you. You'll have a lot of fun playing and learning the game.

Gotta agree with everyone so far. This league is really fun, and it is only getting better as we get more teams active. Relegation and Promotion make it exciting through every season. J does a great job and he has put in a lot of work to make this such a great league.

btop · 06-18-2007, 10:11 AM

This is a fantastic league... extremely well run, highly active teams and a great promotion/relegation structure. I've been a solo OOTP player for awhile and joined this as my first online league -- and it has been a lot of fun. Highly recommend it!

I have a question about the original setup of this league---were the subleagues created at 100% modifiers or less than that?

The defaults were used so all the Major Leagues are set at 100% and all the minor leagues are set at less than that, but equal across leagues. Such as the United States AAA League has the same modifiers as the South Korea AAA League.

I have to say that this is one of the great aspects of our league, there is an absolute even playing field between teams, so over time a good GM should enjoy success.

Hey peeps,

Our third season is just winding down so we are gearing up to add two new leagues to the Hierarchy in a couple of weeks. The Canada League is full but there are still spots available in the Venezuela League. Note...they will be Inaugural Drafts not Expansion Drafts, they are new leagues with new players. So if you are interested, please fill out the JOIN form with the Venezuelan city of your choice but make sure to check the HIERARCHY to see which cities are unavailable.

Thanks for your time,
-j

Come on in! You get to pick your city, your nickname, and your logo.

This is the most fun I have ever had in an online league. The set-up is truly unique, much like European football leagues where your performance can earn you a trip to a higher league. The commish is awesome and knows exactly what he is doing and is willing to help anyone out that feels a bit 'nervous' about playing in an online league.

So, if you want to give an online league a chance, this is the league for you.

Thanks.

Wot the Devil? · 06-25-2007, 12:08 PM

If your new to OOTP and a bit hesitant about joining a league like I was, then this is the league for you. The help I had from the commish was second to none. No question was too big, little or stupid (and there were quite a few of those) for him to answer and the rest of the guys in the league were just as helpful. I highly recommend this league to rookies and veterans alike.

mkjhartmann · 06-26-2007, 08:00 PM

This is an incredibly well run league. All the stuff occurs on time, the boards are active, the owners seem to be involved, and best of all I like the promotion/relegation.

Makes the entire season a nail biter; when you are not a contender then you might be in danger of relegation which makes you manage even harder.

Check this league out. This is what OOTP online was built for!
