The death is when people stop playing their games and everybody loses interest halfway through.

:siren: THE LEAGUE IS LIVE! YOU CAN NOW PLAY GAMES! :siren:

Talk about the league here, set up games with other players, etc. Bitch about unfair trades and cheese early steals by your opponents.

Info will go in the OP as it happens. Invites will be sent out in about a week or so, people are still getting the game. Keep checking this space.

SAS GOON LEAGUE SIGNUPS

I need to have an idea of how many people are interested before I create the league to minimize the number of CPU teams. Minimal league size is 6 teams. Max is 30. No fantasy draft.

Best thing is to PM me, but post in the thread is fine too. POST YOUR PSN ID. Tell me what team you prefer. 1st come, 1st serve with teams. I'm not going to arbitrate between who gets what team. Hash it out among yourselves.

DH will be on, and we'll do a divisional round, with the players split up into 3 divisions in AL/NL. 10 teams will make the playoffs, 1 game series with a 3 game world series.

I got my rear end kicked. Lag made seeing the pitches harder than I am used to. I pretty much had to either swing or let it go right when you released.


Also I am terrible. That might have something to do with it.

Any thoughts on difficulty settings? I'll post my normal setup and maybe we can come to a consensus

Pitching/Batting difficulty is default for experienced settings.
Batting: Zone plus analog
Pitching: Pure Analog
Fielding: Analog, veteran

Hotzones: off
Strikezone outline: off
Ball Fade: off
Guess Pitch: off

I can't believe the Pirates haven't been picked. If we use the OS Rosters their minors is stacked.

Pitching/Batting/Fielding is up to each user.

There are too many people who are either just comming back to the game or new at it to run strike zones off. Hotzones don't really matter.

Guess Pitch is a big one. I hate it, but I know some people make use of it and it is "in the game". That one we need a consensus on.

Quick counts will be off. Sorry, I hate them, the end.

We basically have one open team left. Got two guys who's prefered teams were sniped before they got them, but I'm letting them claim a spot if they want one of the 3 teams we have left.

Once the league is full I'll start sending out invites.

If you still want to play, just keep hanging out and checking the thread. With 30 people it's inevitable that people will drop out or disappear and I'll gladly transfer ownership to a new player.

I was planning on just adding everyone once we have the teams filled.

Also are we using the OS rosters with all the minor league players?
