Export deadline is now always going to be set to 10pm eastern. And I'll always give you at least 24 hours between exports, if not more. The file going up now will be the last chance you have to offer extensions in-game before the free agency period begins, which will be with the next file. Because of the holiday, after we sim the first stage of FA, we'll go on a break until Saturday. This way, no one misses out on potential free agents because they weren't around or whatever.
1839 SCHEDULE 11/21: Sim to start of free agency. 11/22: FA1 11/26: FA2 11/27: FA3 11/28: FA4/Spring Training 11/30: 1st Half Season Sim 12/2: Draft Sim 12/3: 2nd Half Season Sim 12/5: Post-season Sim |

I was distracted. So I probably forgot to push "upload archive" after I compiled it. Give me a second.

Hey Tasan: Just a fast-sim OOTP12 league. After two years of not running a league and testing out various fast-sim models, I got the itch again. Moved the league to this forum after demoing it off-site. Main differences are: Quote:
That's about it, save for the talent differences, no all-blue 5-star studs floating in these parts. The idea is basically the same, but in the old days people would write and always tell me that they'd be interested but that it was just too fast. And running it, I always felt like you never got to savor your players. So we're still fast, but not breakneck. |

The pace here is actually about perfect. Still fast enough where we will be able to watch entire careers pan out but not so fast that I won't be able to enjoy watching that happen. I also like the ability to make mid season changes.

Second League of Offseason Play Home San Mateo Los Angeles Memphis (eddie never claimed them after originally joining) Chicago are available. We'd be happy to have you and yes, you can move them/rename them of course. Also indicate if you want DH/no-DH, we're going to realign this coming season based on people's preferences. Last season we ran with no DH in either league. Last edited by Young Drachma : 11-22-2011 at 02:15 PM. |

I don't have a strong preference either way, but it might be fun having some in division rivalries with my brother so I'll go NL

Of course, now that I've said that, my whole team will fall apart next season.

Welcome to our two new owners:
Tasan will be taking over San Mateo. They will move to Texas and become the Frisco Rough Riders. Meanwhile, Jack Raden will be taking over the Memphis Smokers. Guys let me know if you want DH/no-DH and welcome aboard! |

I'm always a fan of paying an extra batter. Sign me up for DH.
Howdy folks, a lot of you know me from FOOL/FOOL-X. Hopefully I'll have some similar success here, but who knows. Ping me for trades!

Owner List is updated. Whenever I can get Ben to give me mod rights (and to hopefully, rename this forum!) I'll sticky some of those things so there's less clutter.

Hey guys - not sure I know many of you yet. I'm new to the fast-tempo sim scene. All of my experience is in more standard leagues, so I'm excited about trying something like this.
Sign me up for DH, as well. |

Ok, so with Memphis going to the AL, the AL is full meaning the other two teams will be NL teams. But if we get an owner that would strongly prefer an AL team over the non-DH, I'll move New York to the NL. It's no big deal.

One notable thing that we'll end up dealing with later, but I wanted to bring up specifically for Tasan since he knows fast-sim and for you Jack, though you can ask questions is the whole mid-season auction period.
With the all-star break, we do the draft and it's your chance to make adjustments, deadline deals and also to sign free agents. But you don't sign those FAs in-game during the mid-season break because it would take too long for the game to consummate the deals. So we do a public auction for those players where I post a thread and people make public bids on the guys they want. It's only for guys you want to give ML contracts to, not minor leaguers or whatever. So the minimum offer is 1 year/1 million (which ends up being prorated to $500k in-game) for auction players. Not important to day, but just something that's also a difference with this particular brand of fast-sim. |

Seems Jerry Price thinks he's A-Rod. $168m over six years starting out of the gate? Boy, those are going to fun negotiations for somebody...

Here's the current payroll situation of the teams at the start of FA:
Code:
In short, San Diego won't be spending but shedding payroll and Memphis has daddy's checkbook and plans to go shopping for diamonds. Last edited by Young Drachma : 11-22-2011 at 07:36 PM. |

Well, to his credit he will only be 27 entering next season, he belted 32 homers and drove in 132 runs AND plays very solid defense (at a premium position if placed at CF). His ratings seem to be on par for what would be considered a star player for the current league talent level. He is right in his prime years to drive negotiations for a career type contract. If I needed an OF'er, I would at least entertain signing him.

Ok, FA1 is up. No one has signed yet, except your resigned players of course. Just went long enough to process orders for the next sim.
Our next sim deadline is SATURDAY morning at 8am eastern. Then we'll go ahead and get back into the swing of things. Enjoy your Thanksgiving, folks. Last edited by Young Drachma : 11-22-2011 at 10:26 PM. |
