P401 Season 10 mini-whale league - Page 3

For easier housekeeping, should we create a post with just the latest 30+ teams and a discussion that we can point everyone to if they want to be added?

It may be easier to maintain than this forum that may get very long and have lots of discussions.

I have one already started if you want to use that one. It is headed P401. I started it the same time as Orcin started his without knowing.

We don't need to do anything right now. How about if we wait until I can get clarification on the best way to keep the league together?

I guess if you wanted to ultimately make a closed-loop sort of league of like-minded players, it would probably take a friends list of 240 and players at all levels to make a pseudo single A-double A-triple A-majors sort of setup; with one perfect league (4 rel), 2 diamond leagues (4 pro / 8 rel), 2 gold leagues (8 pro / 8 rel), 2 silver leagues (8 pro / 4 rel) and 1 bronze league (4 pro)

that way you'd keep the relegated spots in each league perfectly filled by the right amount of teams being promoted from below and vice versa

short of that, there will always be some holes here and there of teams popping in that aren't part of the agreement

The goal was, and is, to have a perfect league of friends with a feeder league of diamond teams. Anything beyond that would be too difficult to manage with the friends list limit of 30 teams

I suspect the logical choice will be to continue using the "use friends" setting until the league is composed 100% of people from the list.

If we choose the "stay put" option, that leaves the possibility that the 3 players who landed here unintentionally could do the same, which is not what we want. Choosing the "use friends" option would make that impossible.

Good luck everyone.

It wasn't your fault, he withdrew himself, because he was removed from the original list of 28. #28 on the list did not make it, nor did #26.

Do my Omaha All-Stars win the award for the smallest whale at 16 points?

I'm afraid not. My Kenner Lynx take that honor, currently at 14 points. I suspect they'll be taking the next bus back to Diamond League.

Hey my friend. How are you doing this season? Heard you went to the Championship Series last season. 😁

Blazinghalo · 02-04-2019, 09:09 PM

My Valkyrie team just swept a 3 game series from my Lynx team but the Lynx went down fighting, every game went extra innings.

#28 was added very late and I suspect that many people did not have him on their friends list. #26 did not make it because he was relegated to diamond.

I have a 44-point team that is ready to challenge you for last place.
