PING: Anyone with an interest in the Front Desk Baseball Association

GoldenEagle · 05-13-2004, 10:34 PM

If you are interested in the Front Desk Baseball Assocaiton, an OOTP6 league designed for member of FOFC, please follow the following link and fill out an application:

http://www.thefdba.com/fdba.html

Here are the general rules for the league:

-Stats only league. The league will use stats as its main determinate to how a player is doing. However, it has been pointed out that in the past OOTP is not the best when determining when a player should be promoted using stats alone. Should we turn on stars, etc?

-Real players, real teams. We will be using one of the roster updates floating around the OOTP community.

-Immersion. The ultimate goal of the league is to provide a fun, compettive league. This will rely a lot on the website, which is all on me. I also want to do just one sim per week so we can relax a bit and discuss up coming series, etc.

Here is a link to the forum:

Thank you everyone for your interest so far. The applications are coming in at a steady pace and I suspect they will continue to do so. I am going to give everyone a chance to apply, and then make decisions from there. Once again, thanks for your interest. Also keep a heads up as I hope to get the new site up by this week but that largely depends on my work schedule.

Bonegavel · 05-19-2004, 01:21 PM

Should we assume that no news is bad news?

Bonegavel · 05-19-2004, 02:08 PM

dola,

actually, i wanted the above post to read:

"Should I assume that no gnus is bad gnus"

and see if anyone could recall where the origin of the quote. Anyone?

Bonegavel · 05-21-2004, 03:51 PM

Last bump for me... any chance of being accepted?

Suicane75 · 05-21-2004, 03:53 PM

I've applied to be the Devil Rays, but im afraid by the time the league starts the Devil Rays will be a powerhouse.

I keed, I keed.

Yeah, I don't have any idea of whats going on with the league either.

Suicane75 · 05-21-2004, 09:45 PM

Give it time, I know GE was doing something school related that was taking up most of his time as well as having web troubles, i'd wager it picks up soon.

The Afoci · 05-21-2004, 10:05 PM

GE, just a heads up, I have yet to purchase the game, but should be employed by early next week. So it should be mine within a few weeks. Don't know the timetable here.

GoldenEagle · 05-22-2004, 12:48 AM

Guys - I have been super busy lately trying to get everything into a new apartment and really having no solid place to live. I think I should have something up by the end of the weekend hopefully. I think you will all get in, just a matter of sorting through the teams.

Thanks. Sorry for seeming impatient, but multiplayer ANYTHING increases the anxiety level 10 fold.

Bonegavel · 05-26-2004, 11:49 AM

i swear... last bump.

GoldenEagle · 05-26-2004, 03:26 PM

I am off work today so I think I will have time to sit down and organize everything.

Bonegavel · 05-27-2004, 08:54 AM

i super-double swear... last bump.

Bonegavel · 05-28-2004, 07:03 PM

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought this was the City of Heroes thread.

FBPro · 05-28-2004, 08:15 PM

Any idea when this thing is gonna get going?

Bonegavel · 06-03-2004, 11:06 AM

Can somebody else start a league? This isn't a bust on GE (i understand busy) but I would like to partcipate in an online-FOFC-OOTP-league.

GoldenEagle · 06-03-2004, 12:08 PM

The main thing is is just getting it started. Once it gets started, I will urn it over to someone else if I find I can't come up with tht time. I think I will have some tim this afternoon to get everything together.

GoldenEagle · 06-03-2004, 04:10 PM

Bump to announce who got what teams.

Here is the waiting list:
timmyw3
Philliesfan980
EagleFan
LionsFan10
ISiddiiqui

Please confirm your spot in the league by going over to the meassage board and registring.

Philliesfan980 · 06-03-2004, 05:10 PM

Gee.. there were about 10-15 teams open I think, and I didn't manage to get any of them? God forbid I don't have 3000k posts here so I guess I don't get the benefit of the doubt to get the team I request.

Dude, there are people under you on the waiting list who have as good a reputation as you, no reason to get snippy.

I understand.

My gripe is I was (at least I think I was) one of the first people to respond to this thread to request a team. The Phillies were open, I requested them, so why didn't I get them?

GoldenEagle · 06-03-2004, 10:08 PM

EaglesFan27 applied way before you did for them I simply went by who applied first.

LionsFan10 · 06-03-2004, 11:26 PM

Cool, I'm on the waiting list. C'mon, someone suck it up so I can get in. By the way, if anyone is starting a new league around here, I'm open and ready to play.
