Looking to return to OOTP

Chili · 01-15-2004, 12:44 PM

I am looking to join an OOTP league. About a year ago, I helped Andy start up the POTD. Unfortunately, I had to quit due to lack of time.

However, I'm back and have some good ideas for a new league if anyone is interested in starting one. Since the chances of successful leagues starting up mere months before OOTP6 comes out is rather low, I would love to contribute to a current league instead.

I am interested in fictional leagues with finances on. One of the things that turned me off is the constant trading - some leagues seem to more than 5 trades per sim. Inevitably a new GM would come into the league, and would be pressured into dealing before they even realize what is going on. Players moving so frequently diminish the fun I have with leagues. It seems to be more about which GM can stay online enough to pester teams into bad deals, rather than actual strategy. I would enjoy a league that strives to keep trading frenzies to a minimum.

Anyway, like I said, I have some experience, and some ideas that could be fun for a league either established or just starting.

I am the Andy of which he speaks which probably doesn't help your chances any!

Brian was a great asset to the POTD and I have no doubts that he would proide anything less than his best.

It should also be noted that his "lack of time" came because of medical school not some arbitrary reason.

We're a unique new fictional league (finances on) that is in the 6th rd of the initial draft. 4 spots are open.

The discount doc better be interested! Cause I know where he lives and it's no farther than about ten minutes away

On a serious note, any league, including POTD once again, would greatly benefit from bringing Chili onboard.
