Looking for multi-season friends league in Perfect

joehart · 01-24-2019, 07:33 AM

Trying to find a multi-season (friends-league) home for our Silver Pirates.

Team is in Perfect league but based on All-Silver batters with a few early level Diamond pitchers.

Team is not meant to compete against whales so we are looking for a more reasonable friends league (some perfect/diamond/gold/…).
We got promoted twice all the way to Perfect league. Currently doing ok against teams with a few perfect cards and lots of diamond or gold cards.

If this looks similar to your team, or your team is bored of losing to teams with huge cash investments, we could try to put a friends league together:

here is the message with all the team usernames that everyone needs to add:

Good idea! If only my team would make it to the Perfect leagues

Cluboris · 01-24-2019, 10:56 PM

Sounds fun, feel free to add me.

cluboris, currently in p407. My roster consists of mostly gold players with a few diamonds, silvers and bronze. I am just treading water against some of the big boys.

joehart · 01-25-2019, 03:16 AM

Perfect. Will add you to my friends list.

Feel free to do the same and I will also edit the first post to list all the names that need to be added by anyone else that wants to join this no-whale league.

It is a very good idea that I would be interested in for my second and/or 3rd teams if/when we make it to perfect with them. Meanwhile, I will not ask to add my Yaks.

Upon further reflection... If we joined a friend's list like this though, it would likely drag our number one teams into the mix too. The friend's list works on forum name I think instead of using the manager name that would avoid the undesired mix.

joehart · 01-25-2019, 03:28 PM

Currently, you can search for the username or team name in PT and then add them as a friend. However, only the username is unique while a team name search could lead to multiple results of the same team name (I have seen quite a few managers using the same team name over and over and across multiple leagues).

Our BaseStealers lost to your Yaks this morning. Hope we get another chance down the road. Good luck in the playoffs...looks like you had an amazing July.
Great pitching lineup with 96 Kershaw and 96 Greinke.
It is nice to face some of the more rare cards.

Kushiel · 01-25-2019, 03:41 PM

July was very good to us. We will look forward to our next meeting.

lol, But just think if you do make it, It should be a very easy league to stay there.😁👍

Cluboris · 01-25-2019, 04:10 PM

Added you guys. Hopefully we get some more!

This sounds perfect for me. I've added everyone in the OP.

ChelseaNS - Bedford BlueLobsters P400

The discrimination against so called “whale teams” is ridiculous! I’m calling my congressman!

Blazinghalo · 01-25-2019, 07:11 PM

I would be interested in this type of perfect league. I'm in p404 and my active roster currently consists of 0 Perfects, 6 Diamond, 15 Gold, 3 Silver and 1 bronze. Nothing stashed on reserve roster either, the reserve roster consists of 2 Silver and 3 bronze.

joehart · 01-25-2019, 10:30 PM

Orcin mentioned the mini-whale league with a points limit of 50.

I think most of the teams here would fit the criteria and still be able to compete (while also leaving some room to improve)
http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=298059

Feedback request....should we merge the two groups?

Silver Pirates: 15/50 pts.
TylerH: 34/50 pts.
Mooch: 33/50 pts.

I like the idea of merging.

|ChelseaNS · 01-25-2019, 10:55 PM

I'm at 33 too. Just let us know tomorrow Joe, it's your call.

Orcin · 01-25-2019, 11:10 PM

I am at 48 using this scale, and I thought I might be more strength than you guys were looking for in your league. Cluboris is in my league now, so he could give you a better idea. You are all welcome if you think it would be a fit for you.

Blazinghalo = 33 points based on what he posted above
Cluboris = 26 points looking at his roster, p.s. he is 3-0 vs. me this season with 3 more coming up tomorrow

I am ok with merging the groups. More the merrier.

joehart · 01-26-2019, 12:48 AM

Based on the stats and some of teams that I faced before, I suggest we merge to try and fill one large league. Orcin, can you help move the user names?

We can always split off later if it turns out that too many teams field the best of the best and utilize a deep pocket to do so.

At this point, I see good fun competition and want to throw my silver team against them.

Ok, I will add all of these names to my post and keep the list going there. Thanks for joining!
