Just to reiterate:

80M Advanced DH 5/10/20 FA Drop

In a nutshell.....

Everything is randomized from divisional assignments to teams assigned to you...and you will have the opportunity to choose 1 of 2 stadiums assigned to you.

Your team will either consist of 3 Hitting teams and 2 Pitching teams
or vice versa 3 Pitching teams and 2 hitting teams. All chosen by using randomizer.

We need 2 to fill the spots vacated after round 1.

Also....there is no gaurantee that you will be able to field a great team, but do not fret...the first round while seeming lopsided in some regards actually was contested by 10 out of the 12 teams till the final game.

First, the sign up sheet will be randomized (once full) to determine divisions and randomization order.

Next The hitting teams will be assigned via randomization. Each manager will have 2 teams assigned (leaving 6 undrafted)

Then Pitching will be randomized and assigned. Each Manager will have 2 teams assigned to them. (leaving 6 more undrafted teams)

Then a 4th randomization using the 12 undrafted (6 pitching and 6 hitting teams) and assigned. One to each manager. Thus giving each manager 2 Hitting teams (such as Houston, St. Louis) and 2 pitching teams (Red Sox, Yankees) and 1 either Hitting or Pitching team for them to field a team from.

Finally we will randomize the Stadiums and every manager will have to choose 1 of the 2 stadiums assigned to them prior to loading their teams.

I will try to find the original thread so we will have a list of stadiums and teams to make things easier.

If you have questions, feel free to post here. It is really alot easier than I can make it sound.

Basically the half teams you get are completely random. You just have to make the best possible roster of players out of what you are dealt. It is a lot of fun using players that you ordinarily wouldn't use!

C'mon and sign up. We only need 2 managers to get started!

Sounds like fun, I'll give it a try:

Is there some connection between round I and II?

Charlie, good to have you.

No connections to first league other than it is a complete crap shoot.
