I think it's time to get ready for ATG III: Chicks Dig the Long Ball.

I'll keep updating the rules until we can finally see the complete set with rule changes/additions.

[u:cfdd73f84d]Rules[/u:cfdd73f84d]
1) $100 mil
2) Cheapest pitchers available (If enough under 1 mil. If not under 2)
3) If Bernie allows it, all players must play out of position. (This could be very interesting)
4) DH
5) Hitters Park (Fenway '67 only? Fenway and Baker? New parks?)
6) Auto Draft or live draft (If live draft how many rounds?)
7) Complete pool of players
8 ) Frenzy or waivers

I don't know about 25 round draft. What's the interest in a partial draft? Any thoughts? 1 to 25 rounds or auto draft?

Yeah...sorry I wasn't specific. I had 15 rounds in mind, but I'll do whatever ya'll want.

Bump

Why have players play out of position? You want a 5 at every slot??? :shock:

I would be interested (in spite of my last performance in Longball V, where I lost 104 games), but want to know more about this rule of playing everyone out of position.

I would favor no more than a 12 round live draft (takes too long) and a frenzy after the autodraft. I favor 100 MM, DH, pitchers up to 2 MM, and I also favor having various ballparks, including:

Huntington Park
Fenway 67
Polo Grounds '36
Yankee Stadium '27
yankee Stadium '56
Baker Bowl
Sportsmans Park '34
Busch '64
Veterans
Shibe Park '29
Polo Grounds '11
Municipal '54

Each park would be unique, so we could have the park draft in the opposite order of the live draft. Pick parks first, then live draft team.

Anyway, just my 2 cents worth. :oops:

The players out of position would just ensure that much more offense. Maybe I should change the name to "Break the Bank". :D

But, I don't even know if Bernie will allow us to play players out of position so it may be a non-factor.
