Brings back memories of "The Ring Fling". Recurring league with the same parameter. At least one owner ineligible for the next season. Sometimes winning a different league during a Fling season eliminated eliminated more than one owner at a time.
It was fun, good luck with this!

Not as easy to get off the ground as I hoped.

Take your championships any way you can get them. The first one tends to propel you to more. Mine tend to come in 3's, not that I have had too many.

I agree with Coach there is nothing wrong of course with the intent of this league--I hope it fills quickly.

But the sentiment expressed above reveals a corollary that is worth considering: Playing against successful and varied players provides an opportunity to learn.

You could win a league of new folks and potentially have a team model that won't provide success in other environments.

It may not always seem like it on the boards, but trust me--in a league if you ask almost anyone questions on strategy etc, you may be surprised at how willing people are to share. Always consider the source, but you will be the best judge of what works for you.

Nothing wrong with getting that first belt notch, but also there is something to be said for a losing season where much more is gained than a lot of losses :)

Cheers and good luck! If nothing else, I gave it a bump...

Thanks for the advice. I'll try it my way for now, but I will start looking around for tips from veterans.
