Interest in another (small) league for The Show?

[Virix]

Im thinking about starting a small league for The Show, most likely consisting of 8 players. Im not looking to do anything large, mainly to try and get a small group of dedicated guys. If interested post here, and we can get the ball rolling.

Do NOT post a preferred team, we will randomly choose a draft order and draft teams when the time comes.

I'm in, i actually just came on to do this same thing haha...the waiting list for the Sombrero is getting big tho, I would just select people that you know are active here and will be active in the league also

 

[Virix]

Yeah Im not planning on taking people unless I see they are active in other leagues or ladders.

The Sombrero is going to expand to take in a significant amount of players (hopefully) come next season.

We are already 2/3's of the way through with season 1.

You should make an all-strikes, quick-pitching, fast play ON league. Should get plenty of interest around here.

I think Im going to pass on that.

Im not planning on plucking guys from TGS wait list. If guys are interested, they are more than welcome though. If the league is successful, Id want to do more than one season, even if we use it to feed the larger leagues. In my experience running a "minor league" system never works out so that isnt what I plan to do, although I do plan on keeping it a rather small league.

lmao...that was funny....its sad, but true

i think the sombrero has enough players. i dont think expanding is always a good thing. Too many issues to deal with.....i think we have a solid list of owners. other then buddah and krul, everyone is trucking along.

even if krul did drop, i wouldnt replace him at this point. I would change all 3 of his games to a 0-0 final making nobody a winner....then just let the season ride out with those game unplayed. A new owner would be playing massive catch up and we are already pretty close to being done.

I'm interested.
PSN is x-_-MITCH876-_-x

 

[Virix]

The good thing is, if this league gets up and running with a good core of guys we can have the champ of this league and the sombrero play a series for "VSN Champ" or some shit.

I ran one of our games with fast play on because I was pressed for time

You mentioned that in advance and I had no problem with that in our game.

Some other people like to fast pitch and hit x so fast through the cutscenes it's like playing in fast forward.

 

[Maynard]

Agreed man. What I was thinking is possibly adding three guys. Letting everyone pick a AL team and an NL team. We will have to talk about it.

the great thing about this league is that you are running it....so you have to deal with all the BS....lol

but that can be a headache....its great to see all the interest but u know how that goes...

Yah get a small league going with our league waiting list intell seasson 2

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

We've got a great group of players in GS which is awesome. Everybody (except Buddha) is anxious to get that next game in. If everybody on the waiting list is the same, there could be another successful league.

 

[Maynard]

As for you Maynard. The golden sombrero is responsible for several leagues dying since the release of the Show. If we can single handedly take out leagues just imagine what our champion could do to yours.

ok Jax, wtf are you saying here? lol

the thing about buddah, if he is replaced, who would get his spot? that wait list is long, but would it be first come, first serve? or would the best possible choice be taken instead.....hmmmmmmmmmmm :cyclops:

I'll be co-commish or w.e help out with anything that needs to be done to get this rolling, I dont see it as a competition with GS, i see it as the fact that everybody deserves a chance to be in a quality league, and GS obviously can't provide everybody that oppurtunity so we need another league.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

That is all on houtz :moon:

Just keep in mind that the MLB09 league system is screwed up, and LD is 60 bucks for 6 months.

Virix you got AIM??? and whoever else has some good input ideas we can get together and get the ball rolling on this, we got plenty of guys including myself that could make sigs and whatnot for the league if we get together

wasn't aware that it was screwed up...how so?...either way, thats part of what we need to put our heads together to decide
