Merm
What other rules are you refering to?

[mike_miller]

I think we were still "up in the air" on doing a lottery, trades, rights to players, stadiums, division line-up etc...Can someone list all of the rules and we can go from there...Thanks

[rjohaire]

No trades, the players are yours and yours alone for the season.

Divisions - by month 1,4,7,10 in east, 2,5,8,11 in central, 3,6,9,12 in west

Stadium - unless someone know the dates the months the stadiums were built, any stadium you want.

Anything I missed?

[rjohaire]

Where'd everyone go?

[novie]

I'm not down w/ a no trade league at all... done too many of these type themes and the ones w/ no trade always suck IMHO.

I could see mandating that at least 20 players come from your month and any other additions must be acquired in a trade... certainly doesn't taint the theme.

[mike_miller]

Gotta go with Novie on that...How bout it...You are able to trade, but must keep 20 of the 25 from you month...vote?

Those of you who know me, know that trading is my favorite part...would not seem right joining a "No Trade League"...I once had a league where you had to trade X amount of dollars in players to be in the league...that was wild!

By the way...did we decide on a $100M League or is that up for vote?

[rosenthm]

Seems like we have a clear cut line between those that want to see trades and those that don't. I'm on the no trade side...again once you allow trades, it dilutes the concept of the theme.

I'm fine removing my name from the list, I put my name in with the condition that I wanted to hear the rules, etc. Maybe someone needs to start all over, post the league with trades or without and with the pocess for selecting the month and see if 12 people sign on.

I dont want to see Agabriel's work go for nothing so I will try this again if there is any interest.
Starting over from scratch
Lottery to pick which month you get will go the day after we get 12 teams involved so list name with state lottery behind it will always go with hte night time lottery.
Stadium pick anyone you want.
80 Million dollar league no DH
must draft 25 players fromyour month then after 42 games able to only have 20 players from your month on it so 3 players from outside your month which will lead to some trading among all. If you keep 25 players 22 must be from your month.
Divisions east 1,4,7,10 cent 2,5,8,11 west 3,6,9,12

Will create league paasword protected when we get 12 people interested.

Guys, sorry I went AWOL. As you might guess from my board name, I am an accountant and have been super busy the past couple of weeks.
