Hey guys this is going to be a 30 team interactive association. Two other people have tried this and it didn't pan out. I want to re-invent it. This league will have me as the commissioner, and I will run the league site as the media member.
Roles you can be:
-GM- (5 Spots available)
-Co-commish-(Filled)
-Trade Veto Board-(3-5 guys including me, probably won't need vetoes seeing as how nba trades never get vetoed but just incase we see a horrid trade.)
-Agent/Media-(I'll be one, if you're an Agent/Media guy you can't be a GM. Heres why, you break news, leak rumors so we need someone who just wants to fish around for rumors, true or false? Who knows. Media will post on the website, and on OS. If you're a Media person being an agent would be another thing you could do. Negotiate as every players agent for FA purposes, or for demanding trades, etc.)
-Cap Space guy-You can be anyone of these other roles and do this role as well. I just need someone who has a solid understanding of the CBA to help me out. I don't want this to be as strict as the real CBA, but maybe we could come up with our own rules as a league, and this guy will just help out with monitoring it with me and the other Commissioner.
Few things about the association:
1. Nobody plays games, It is all run on my association and I sim all games, and make the moves you make in my game to adjust the rosters to the moves that have been made.
2. You are the GM so you handle all your scouting, your trades, and roster moves as well as the rotations and your coach profiles so you dictate how YOUR team will play.
Questions for you guys:
1. How many guys do you want to join before we start? (Thinking at least 15 probably 20 though.)
2. Do you guys want to know players ratings from all teams, just yours, or none? Other leagues that I've done they chose none.
3. How many trading windows do you want? I was thinking no more than 3, because I don't want this to be trades were no teams resemble their current selves.
Also I was thinking of doing just 29 games. Heres why:
1-Lets us finish more seasons.
2-Helps you guys with rotations because injuries happen and it would be too tough to sim through weeks without letting you guys reset lineup.
3-This way I can go through 2 games a day for teams and you will still get to tinker with lineups, for whatever reason you want to.
Note: The league will start at Summer League so you guys can put a team in if you want and I will have the games summed for you.
Also when picking your team, if you pick a young team keep that in mind so that you want to build through young talent, and draft unless you can snag a nice trade, but most young teams hold some assets see what their potential can be.
I will be incorporating a FA calculator that determines teams talent, with city, and fan base to determine what FA's go where depending on the offers you guys make.
Hope this draws interest. Lets make this fun!
League Website I created for a different interactive association. We never got started so thats why its not 100% finished.
