Is that not new and I just never noticed? quote:You're given a THM##### league number. You enter a fresh (no players) team into it. Once everyone's in, the draft is set. It is integrated into the team center and thus allows you to draft without using the forums. The Draft Utility has features such as shortlists, automatic removal of taken players, automatic restriction to the available player pool, time slotting, etc.

It's not new, I think we've never used it because we assume it's garbage.

All of my starters have an ERA over 5.00. I don't know how this team is over .500 with this loving staff:

I will say that Rule V is possible, but I'm reticent to do it given how many people in this league also participate in the WiS forums Rule V. If I hear from enough of them that they wouldn't mind (especially with a switch to, say, 100M) that might be a good choice. Bob Shabazz fucked around with this message at 00:15 on Feb 11, 2016 |

Two Man Band was fun as hell, but what about a Four Hoursemen theme where you make your team up of clones of four guys, one has to be a pitcher and one a batter, the other two can be either as needed. A five round draft where you also select a park. Shouldn't take too long if we enforce time limits on picks.

I haven't done a Rule V for a few years so I'd have no objections, plus iirc it was the theme on the one goon league that I won

As one of the Rule V-ers I would do a Rule V, but obviously I'm open to different themes too. Four Horseman was fun. I also liked the first one I did where you pick team captains and you have to use their names to create your team. Or the White Elephant.

I would also like a possible one-upping of the $60m league that was the first SLB season I played with like a $40m cap or something. I think years back I pitched this before and people thought it was like unanimously a terrible idea but I like the idea of everyone grinding it out with lovely fatigued players.

i like themes that either allow you to use players you never can because they are super expensive or themes that force you to use players you never would. two man band is fun for the first reason. i can't remember what the four horseman theme is.

Four horsemen is where you're randomly assigned the most expensive hitter and pitcher and least expensive hitter and pitcher (162 ip/500 pa) from four different seasons and you build your team from those years using those players. I was just looking at the old thread for it and I would love to do it again
