Hi Everyone,

I created a 2008 Live Draft league, with the draft being held on a Saturday, February 13th at 5:00pm ET. We have a few open spots to fill since the initial group signed up. [u:332385dc93]I would like to limit this particular league to managers with a rating under 200 pts and no league championships[/u:332385dc93]. If you are slightly over 200 pts (with no titles), thats ok too. If you fit the bill and would like to join this league, here is the info:

[b:332385dc93]Season: 2008
League Name: Under 200 Pts - No Titles
Password: firsttitle [/b:332385dc93]

The initial group has very little Strat-O-Matic experience. I think this is a good chance for some of the newer players (myself included) to practice strategy/gameplay with a card set they are familiar with before the 2009 set comes out.

Thanks,
Mike

MoFo,

Sorry for the delay in posting. I think this is a great idea. However, I have been learning the ropes by playing the 2003 game since it is only $12.50, so I don't have any experience with the 2008 game. However, I am planning to jump into the 2009 game when it comes out. So, if you want to delay it until then, I am definitely in.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll probably end up starting a 2009 league too at some point. I just thought one last shot at 2008 might be a nice option for some of the newer guys since they already have some familiarity with the card set (before moving onto 2009).

I am new this and would join your league. Hopefully we can get at least 12 though.

I think we have 7 or 8 so far, I don't think it would be hard to fill the rest.

FYI, I delayed this because a few people asked me to wait until after the NFL Playoffs to hold the draft. I'll post details (draft date/time) by the end of this week.

Thanks,
Mike

I'm in Mike. Just let me know when. I think my 37 points qualifies me.

Thanks for setting this up. Mid Feb. sounds great.

Draft will be on Saturday, February 13th. Time to be determined.

If you expressed interest via this thread or PM, please check your PM for the password.

I'm hoping we can get the initial group loaded by this evening.
