It sounds fine to me. Looking forward to another season!

Sounds good to me. Let's get crackin'

Vris · 05-08-2005, 06:54 PM

Great ideas. Bring it on!

LivnLegend · 05-09-2005, 11:09 AM

Looks great!

congobeast · 05-09-2005, 01:38 PM

I concur with... well... everyone else. Rock on.

Elendil · 05-09-2005, 04:08 PM

I did the draft lottery over lunch and can now announce the sequence of picks. I'm proud to announce that the #1 overall pick goes to...

...the Treasure Valley Stars! So blueturf should submit to me a $180 pitcher/$240 hitter and a $130 pitcher/$170 hitter.

Here are the rest of the picks:

#2 - Racine/Jestor (he appears to be banned from the forum at the moment)
#3 - Pittsfield/congobeast
#4 - Cooperstown/Matt from TN
#5 - Utica/[zombie team]
#6 - Atlantic City/metsgeek
#7 - Fontana/LivnLegend
#8 - Worcester/Vris
#9-14 - all the rest (order doesn't matter, creation rules are the same)

Please PM or post here your new players, by the end of the week. Thanks!

metsgeek · 05-09-2005, 07:27 PM

Since Player Creation is buried in another thread, I thought I'd make it easier for everyone and copy it over here. Elendil's rule changes are Highlighted in ORANGE.

Talents:
(No talent may be above 50. Avoid K's must be at least 80% of Contact. Total dollars allocated to Talents may not exceed $190 nor be less than $80. At least 20 hitters must be created, and no more than 24. Create 35 players in total. At least 5 hitters must have speed 50 or higher. At least 14 players must play no more than 1 position.)

Contact - $1 per point
Gap Power - $0.80 per point
Homerun Power - $1 per point
Eye - $1 per point
Avoid K - $0.50 per point

Skills:

Speed (1-100) - $0.50 per point
Stealing (1-100) - $0.50 per point
(Running instincts will be the average of Speed and Stealing; you don't need to pay for it.)

Sac Bunt (1-5) - $2 per point above 1 ($2 for 2 rating, and so on)

Bunt for Hit - determined by the relationship between speed and sac bunt (81+ speed increases bunt for hit +1 over bunt skill, 61-80 speed makes bunt for hit equal bunt skill, 41-60 speed makes bunt for hit -1 under bunt skill, 21-40 speed makes bunt for hit -2 under bunt skill, 1-20 speed makes bunt for hit equal 1 no matter what bunting skill is)

Range/Catcher Arm (1-100) - $0.50 per point for primary positions for speed 1-60, $0.40 per point for speed 61-80, $0.25 per point for speed 81-100 (the speed bonus does not apply to catcher arm) (you may then choose secondary positions with this range penalty: -10% off range of first position for second position, -15% off range of second position for third position, -30% off range of third position for all other positions - only 2 players may be created with both infield and outfield positions)

Fielding % - $3 per point on a 0-4 scale; this scale is interpreted as follows for each position:

Code:

Position     4 points  3 points   2 points   1 point   0 points
Catcher      .995,6 PB .988,10 PB .981,14 PB .974,18 PB .967, 22 PB
First Base   .994      .991       .988       .985       .982
Second Base  .982      .974       .966       .958       .950
Third Base   .951      .932       .913       .894       .881
Shortstop    .973      .963       .953       .943       .933

Rightfield   .982      .973       .964       .955       .946

metsgeek · 05-09-2005, 07:34 PM

One question: Is the draft straight or serpentine? Or does the second round revert to reverse order of standings?

I have the 6th pick in the first round, but I don't know if I have the 20th, 23rd or 25th pick, and since the amount of $$ goes down after #20, I'll need to know.

Vris · 05-09-2005, 07:37 PM

I think he mentioned it being Serpentine.
