Garcia's Blog 10/16/14- Open ATG 8 Theme League Team

PostThu Oct 16, 2014 3:14 pm

Hey guys,

First, congrats to Kansas City on reaching the World Series! I'll be rooting for them to win it all against either San Francisco or St. Louis but either way hopefully these games will be just as exciting as the rest of this post-season has been.

Today I am looking for a replacement owner in a theme league. The original owner signed up not knowing it was a theme and we have honored his request to remove him. The team is still in pre-season mode and would need to get back to league requirements through waivers, which runs tomorrow afternoon at 5 pm ET. The league description is below:

Pick a team from any ONE era (db,pro,post,exp) or Neg League Team. Use players from that team only. Once you have entered your team in the league, don't make roster changes until after the draft. That way you keep your spot and team, of course if you want to change teams, fine. Roster set at 140 Mil. That should leave money for you to use to purchase players that you did not pick, as farm players. Please use the name of the Team you choose as your league team name and after the nickname add era, such as Atlanta Braves (exp)..which is my choice. Plenty of great teams ! DH and yes you can own more than one team. Even though I'm 58 , I love Halloween and Horror, hence I have ask Michael Myers to be my mgr. He's quite and to the point, the players seem to try extra hard for him. The Umps seem to fear him though. If you decide to join, Thanks ~ KB ~ Happy Halloween !

Other league info is shown here:

Player Set: ATG 8
Skill Level: Standard
Salary Cap: $140,000,000
DH Rule: yes
FA Drop Penalty: 5/10/20%
Postseason Format: 2 rounds: Best-of-7, Best-of-7
Opening Day: Monday, Oct. 20, 2014

If anyone would like to join this league, please e-mail us at onlinegamesupport@strat-o-matic.com and we will be happy to add you as the 12th team. You must be able to attempt to get the team within the league rules by tomorrow through waivers. If we receive multiple requests, the first user that writes in accepting the offer to join the league gets the team. Of course, please let us know if you have any questions as well.

Other updates: We're continuing to work on adding the 20 ATG 8 additions to the site and creating salaries for them. A new error came to our attention in that ERA was not sorting correctly when a team has an ERA over 10.00. We have fixed this but if anyone sees something similar please let us know. In addition, we have added the 60's mystery game to the dropdown menu for old archived teams. If anyone wants to sort through their old teams you can now quickly find all your 60's mystery teams using this.

That's all I have for this week. Talk to you all next week!

-John
