NEW LEAGUE: September 1965

[jluckhau]

@backstreets Nah, we’ll just do it the old-fashioned way. I’ve got a spreadsheet that lists the schedule and teams can see exactly who they have to play. It also compiles the data just by emailing the box scores to a specific address. This allows us to track playing time limits for each team so that players don’t get used more than they’re supposed to. It’s something that anluck7 did in his 1994 replay and it worked pretty well as a way to get managers to use their entire roster.

[jluckhau]

@dbacknate you’re certainly welcome to play if you’d like.

[Backstreets]

@jluckhau Got it…I had no idea you could email the box scores !

[Backstreets]

@jluckhau …I know it would be a guess but do you have any idea how many weeks you expect this to take to complete?..just trying to figure out if I have the time available to participate

[dbacknate]

@jluckhau : I am too busy. Thanks again though.

[Backstreets]

Jluck…are the pirates taken yet?

[jluckhau]

@backstreets We haven’t selected teams yet. Once we have managers lined up, we’ll randomize the order and have a team draft. That way managers who don’t see the league announcement for a couple of days have a chance to get the team they want most.

[Backstreets]

@jluckhau Thanks so much…did not realize that is how it works and that makes sense but I may need to pass as my primary interest in playing would be to manage the pirates. Thanks so much for the follow up

[jluckhau]

I’ve suddenly gotten overwhelmingly busy and have had to put this league on hold temporarily. We’re still looking for 3 more managers, so if you’re interested - even if you don’t have time right at this moment - let me know.

[pwinske]

@jluckhau … I would be interested. No preference on a team. Let me know asap if I am in or out.

Did this ever get off the ground? It sounds interesting.
