You've seen dozens of ads like this, so we won't bore you with fluff. Here's what you need to know.

What is the KBL?
The KBL (Kabalian Baseball Leagues) is a unique league with fictional teams and players set in a fictional world. We are entering our ninth season, and we're looking for some new GMs. Newbies are welcome.

...has a system in place to ensure that the league will be around for a number of seasons.
...has rules in place to ensure competitive balance while allowing managers room to maneuver.
...is run by mature individuals with a great deal of online league experience between them.
...is determined by you, as all major changes will be voted on by the members.
...will try to add as many things as possible that will add to your enjoyment and participation in the league.

What teams are available?
Sahara Chimps
Swahili Zebras

Mansa Musa Nyameras

Where can I find more information about the KBL?

As some may know, I was the commish of the KBL for its first 7 seasons. Nick Reynolds (kingcharlesxii here) took over at the start of this season. Nick has always been one of the KBL's most active and best members. In fact, he won the league's most active manager award in the league's first 4 seasons, was the Kerma League President in the first 7 seasons, and he and his Watumbatu Golden Moles won the championship in the league's 2nd season. Add to that that he's a smart and easy-going guy and I think you'll agree that the league is in good hands.

George has already provided a good introduction to the league above, but if you'd like a quick rundown of the league's characteristics you can check out the KBL's profile page at the IOLD.

The first sim of the regular season will be tomorrow night, so if you'd like to get in at the start of a season get in now!

Giving this a bump. If you're looking for a fun fictional league, this is a great one to join!

ill16ca · 01-17-2006, 09:27 PM

Highly recommended. A very efficiently run league.

kingcharlesxii · 01-24-2006, 05:54 PM

Friendly bump. If this league interests you contact me, we'd love to have a few more good owners!

kingcharlesxii · 02-20-2006, 01:56 PM

Bump to the top. If you want to join now's a good time. We're finishing up the season and it will give you time to get familiar with the players and teams.

kingcharlesxii · 03-09-2006, 03:30 PM

Our season is nearly in the books, it's a good time to join.

kq76 · 03-18-2006, 01:49 PM

Hipcheck!

disposableheros · 03-22-2006, 06:34 PM

1009 file just went up today (1st file of the new season). now would be a great time to join!

raf105 · 03-23-2006, 04:03 PM

Bump for updated list of available teams.

Newville · 03-24-2006, 11:14 AM

What they all said ... just look at the number of posts of some of the GM's and you will see this is an active group. Sims are run on time with a lot of back story and give and take ... what more can you ask for?

scotto313 · 03-24-2006, 06:23 PM

This league is way too good to have multiple vacant teams!

raf105 · 03-28-2006, 04:31 PM

Bump to remove another team from the "available" list.

disposableheros · 03-31-2006, 03:35 PM

FA is about half way over and the draft is 1/3 way thru the 2nd round. there's still time to do some team molding.

disposableheros · 03-31-2006, 10:14 PM

oops.

kq76 · 04-08-2006, 05:39 PM

Bump. Rule 5 draft is this Monday, opening day Thursday.

kq76 · 04-20-2006, 11:27 AM

*bump*

Oops! I'm so sorry. Are you alright? I don't know what's wrong with me. I really should be more careful. May I buy you your coffee?
