Any "slow" leagues out there?

What I mean by "slow" is running sims only once per week.

I have a busy job and a family, and don't think I could get around to multiple sims per week.

I'm not familiar with the process of simming, I'm making an assumption that I would need to perform some actions per sim. So, if a league sims 3 times a week, then that means I would need to load up my game and make roster tweaks 3 times a week. Is that accurate?

Usually in an online league the league sims between 3-4 times a week. Usually after each sim you would download the game from inside the game. Usually takes a few minutes depending on file size and speed of internet. Than just depending on how detailed you are with your team. You could take a few minutes make sure you don't have any injuries and than export or you could be moving all your players around.

But also communicating with other GM's about trades and such can be time consuming. Also making sure you are available to draft or make a list to draft from. So there is quite a bit that goes into it.

Usually finding a league that sims once a week is pretty rare.

Even the PEBA sims twice a week but the slow pace is to allow you time to write about your team. I don't think I've ever heard of any league on a one sim schedule
