4OTP Looking for Owners

The 4OTP - short for Octopus Overlords Out of the Park, as the league was originally started by members of the Octopus Overlords gaming community - is a league that has been running for over four years; however, it was restarted with the release of OOTP2006, so the league's current history is only a season and a half old. Due to the general distaste that many people developed to last year's version of the game, we've had quite a few people depart over the last season, and now have openings for new players to join as we convert to OOTP2007.

Our conversion to OOTP2007 will happen immediately after the first patch for the game is released, which in Marc Duffy's words from the other day will be "soon".

For a general sense of the league, you can check out our website, web reports, and/or our forum. If you have any questions about the league that aren't answered in this post, you can post them in this thread, PM me, or send an e-mail to 4otpcommish@gmail.com. Here are some of the basic features:
  • Modern league based on MLB rules
  • Real players and MLB teams; however, the league was begun with a fantasy draft and each year's amateur draftees are fictional
  • Currently using full minors, though ghost players and/or a reduce minor league structure is likely to be enacted after converting to 2007 (new players will have a say in this)
  • Draft pick trading enabled
  • Free agent compensation disabled
  • Coaching/scouting disabled
  • No salary cap or cash maximum, though one may be implemented if spending gets out of hand
We sim a week of games three times a week - Sun, Wed, Fri at 7:00 p.m. EST - and owners are expected to export at least once per three sims (obviously, vacations and other longer absences are expected and accepted as long as we're notified of them).

We'll accept people with any level of experience playing OOTP solo or online, and our owners are quite willing to help new players 'learn the ropes', so to speak. If you wish to join the league, please send an e-mail to 4otpcommish@gmail.com with your name, forum nickname, and the team you'd like to take over. I'll get back to you within 24 hours. The currently available teams are:

Currently available franchises:
Tampa Bay Devil Rays - taken
Cleveland Indians - taken
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim - taken
Cincinnati Reds - taken
Milwaukee Brewers - taken
Colorado Rockies - taken

Thanks for reading this. If our league sounds like fun, drop me a line!

The Rockies are gone, but the Devil Rays are available in their place...

All of our vacancies have been filled for the time being. Thanks to everyone for the interest!

If anyone else would still like to join the league, you can certainly let me know at 4otpcommish@gmail.com and I'll add you to our waiting list to receive the first team that opens up.
