New draft historical league opening.

CommishJim · 05-15-2003, 11:08 PM

A new intial draft historical league is opening we will be starting with the 1995 season I chose this years cause I like the mix of older guys that played in the 80's yet the superstars of today are in the league or entering the draft in the next couple of years.

The league will be simmed 6 days a week each sim being 5 days long. ( playing a month out in a week) This will be a fast moving league but yet we are only simming 5 days at a time so owners still have alot of control over there team. Each years We will import real rookies for that year.

All teams will start on an even playing field each team will have the these settings:
Cash: 5 Million
Fan Interest : 70
Market size: Good
Loyalty: Very Good
TV Revenue: 40 Million
Merchandising Revenue: 11 Million **

** will be set for last years revenue, merchandsing revenue does't change much form year to year

If this league intersts you check out the website www.ootp5league.com All the info on how to join is on the site. I haven't decide on a name for the league yet so anyone with an idea please let me know. I can be reach at ootpcommish@aol.com or on AIM jimhemler.

All the teams are open expect the orioles.

This is the same Commish who bailed on the OOTP Rookie League (ORL) after 1 season (in which his Atlanta Braves won the World Series).

Don't get your hopes up, folks.

I left the OOTP rookie league cause I was offered a job in houston and the last two months I have been moving my family from Jeresy to Texas for my job. I asked serveral people to take over the league for the two months when no came foward I had no choice but to close the league. In fact I quit all the other league that I was in at the I left the ORL expect one (AOBL)

your comment makes no sense you are trying to say that I left cause I won the world series the year before well in fact I still had a great team and had the best record so Y whould I just give up and quit

CommishJim · 05-19-2003, 10:09 PM

ok Seven teams have now been taken Twins Angels boston Yankees, Atlanta and Baltimore

I also have add something that I saw in another league (BTTF) that I am adding to the league. Each team owner will be allowed to create a player after them. Each owner will chose the players postion. and if he is a veterans or a rookie the rating will be created at random by ootp 5.

sbasseyn · 05-19-2003, 11:16 PM

is it necessary to have ootp5 to be in this league?

CommishJim · 05-19-2003, 11:57 PM
