I’ve had a brainstorm and I’ll soon be floating a new theme idea for a keeper league, for one of the mystery card games. Ultimately, I’d like to try the idea with the 90s game but I don’t want to wait for the 90s set to be released.

The idea is that 12 owners will draft enough players to fill two rosters and then will play in a “Major” league and one “Minor” league. Everyone will have one team that serves as the farm team for the big league team. The farm teams will all compete in a league simultaneously. It will be a keeper league as well.

I’m sure I’ll get 12 guys interested in this. My question is whether those potentially interested would like to try this using the 80s game or 70s game? I tend to prefer the 80s game but would also like a reason to play more with the 70s set.

I’m posting this in both forums to hopefully get a representative survey. I’ll post the details of the theme soon.

I’m not taking a list of owners yet, but please only weigh in if you think you might be interested in something like this.

BC, how many seasons?

The minor league should have a 60m cap.

Do you keep all your players, or just most of them?

Maybe I need to wait for the the rules.

Great idea. I would play if it was the 70s. I tried the 80s and just like the 70s game better. This actually seems like a really fun idea!

I want to wait to post all the rules until we're ready to have ppl sign up. And I want to decide on on which games we're using first.

It will involve keeping all your players but there will be rules which make player movement happen. It will be an ongoing keeper league -- so as many seasons as we want.

I've come up with a way to incorporate the 70s, 80s and 90s - stay tuned. Will post a new post with rules, and sign-up, soon.
