2006 LOTO TOUR - ROUND 2 - LEAGUE A

[Cubs48]

....getting swept for anybody but Wood or Phanatics could be disastrous at this stage of the season... :( :)

[ArrylT]

Speaking of sweeps we had 3 last night, which gives us a 3 way tie for 3rd and a 3 way tie for 6th. Every team is within 6 games of the 6th & final spot with 21 games to go.

[Cubs48]

..well,my team got swept last night and may be starting it's descent into oblivion.... :shock: :( :)

[ArrylT]

5 nights & 15 games left to play ... still very tight ... probably only 2 owners that don't have a realistic shot at advancing to the finals. Will all depend on who gets hot down the final stretch!

[Cubs48]

....fading fast :(

I have a strong feeling that tie-breakers are going to come into play for that last spot.

Don't like the way my team is limping down the stretch but I'm hoping that everyone in the Central & West split with each other.

I've never seen a league this close before. If you take out Giddyup's & Franks teams then it's even closer top to bottom.

[ArrylT]

6 games to go - this is going to definitely come down to the wire - both to determine final division chanps, wild card winner & the final 6 advancing to Rd 3!! 8)

....never been in a league where all 12 teams have been bunched so close for the whole season....great league...even if my team has run out of gas this last week... :( :)

Congratulations to all RD 2 A League playoff teams and those who have advanced to the LOTO Finals.

I have left a message to everyone in League Mail of that league.

In short, I have been engulfed by a very serious family crisis since the Friday before yesterday and had to fly to CT on short notice for the week.

I have had very limited access and no time for Strat matters the past week. But I did return last nite and for the most part, the crisis has been resolved. But I am behind on other REAL matters that have to be addressed before creating the Finals League - Which I will do as soon as this league's playoffs are completed.

Anyone wishing to get a head start on their Finals strategy can do so by checking the 6 Finalists from each of the RD2 A and B Leagues and finding the rules for the Finals league in one of the other LOTO Threads for 06' on the Boards.

I will be posting again, sometime on Monday or Tuesday, as I work long hrs weekends. Thanks and sorry for any inconvenience.

[quote:82904fbc04]All 3 Rounds are Simple Autodrafts...But with simple Ballpark and Cap Rule Differences. All 3 Rounds will use the DH, all 3 Rounds will have weighted waivers.

1st Round: 80M CAP, DH, Weighted Waivers, ANY Ballpark you want to play in. So Multiple BP's are acceptable. 10% Caphit on Add/Drop.

2nd Round: 100M CAP, DH, Weighted Waivers, Lottery for Ballparks, Unique Stadiums.(No 2 of the same ballpark allowed.) Standard 20% Caphit on Add/Drop.

3rd Round: 60M CAP, DH, Weighted Waivers, Unique Stadiums - In order of win pct. (Best to Last - So it pays to play hard and win. Stadium Choice in the Finals Round is a big deal - especially with the lower Cap.) Progressive Caphit (Like in BT 80's) 5%/10%/20%.

1 Last Rule: No Player may use the same Ballpark more than 1 Time. Anyone in the Finals League will have had to use 3 different Ballparks.
