Hey guys....
I'm not setting the rules for this league so don't jump to anything. My thought was just a statement to be considered......Bobby

Just let me know what you are doing and I'll put a team together quickly...

gkhd11a, that is why I posted a signup and held off starting a league.
Muttdoc says he has created a league with the appropriate parameters so I imagine we will use that one assuming he password protected it.

Dwight and Thurm, are you sure they did not just give you credits so you could join a different league. If so those teams might actually still be active.

I would have no objection to merging them except at least a couple people have already created teams in the league muttdoc created. Merging at this time could get confusing so let's stick with muttdoc's created league. Of course if the owners of those teams in the other league want to switch over here they are welcome.

Since some people already put their teams together probably be best not to have any special rules beyond format of league posted in original post.

But in a few weeks if you would like to get one together with a rule like that sounds interesting and would like invited.

I did not password protect it. There are not too many people who randomly wander into low cap leagues, but I will not be at all offended if someone wants to replace my league with another. I just wanted to get my team out there last night to not hold things up, since I was unavailable to enter it.

[quote:1a621f549e="dwightskino21"]The Bradford Tigers is my team. The league didn't fill for 4-5 weeks. I asked SNews to switch my team back to a credit and they did. I think that is a dead league. It has to be 3-4 months old by now, if it's the right one.[/quote:1a621f549e]

Why would you need a credit...you can switch out of any league at any time before it is filled by clicking:

There are still 10 open spot(s) remaining in this league.

Just for my clarification...we have 50M/No DH and waivers and league hasn't been created yet. Is this correct? I will put a team together today. Bobby

Well, if he decided to give up on the 50 mil league and chose to switch to a different league he would still be limited to 50 mil leagues to choose from. Since there are not very many of them going at any one time what would there be to gain? By getting a credit he could redraft for a different cap and then join a league.

Thing to do if yo are in a league that is not filling though is advertise on the boards. I have found you can fill almost anything within a couple weeks with a little persistent advertising.

by **PJ Axelsson** » Mon Mar 13, 2006 10:08 am

Yeah, and clever advertising works better. Like this:

[b:f079d67eb8]Resistance is futile! Join us now or perish![/b:f079d67eb8]

[i:f079d67eb8]or...[/i:f079d67eb8]

[color=red:f079d67eb8]Those credits burn a hole in your pocket and are heavy. You could develop scoliosis if you lug them around for too long.[/color:f079d67eb8]

[i:f079d67eb8]or....[/i:f079d67eb8]

[color=blue:f079d67eb8]Join us! You'll get to buy a team and chat with Jessica for a while![/color:f079d67eb8]

:D There, that ought to do it. :D

[b:aba46b5843]Not[/b:aba46b5843] correct.

League was advertised as a $50 mil, DH, Waivers.

Muttdoc did create a non password protected league which unless someone objects we will use just to keep it from getting stranded out there. I like coding my leagues with something in name to show what the format is but hate stranding leagues where they sit out there for everyone to wonder about for months.
