The second annual Flying Monkey League, which introduces the thoughtful and cunning historians populating the ivied environs of the All Time Greats universe to the johnny-come-latelies currently playing major league baseball is now open to the general public.
it uses the 2017 unleashed set. The cap is a piano-friendly $88 million (there are 88 keys on a piano for you who are not musically-inclined). The DH and waivers are in play, and for what it's worth, the level is advanced. Also, one team per customer.
The drop penalty is set at 5% throughout the season, giving FML members a chance to try and correct their mistakes and/or find a functional solution to any draft-day disappointments.
Supplies are limited. Four franchises are already claimed leaving only eight more, so act now!
This league is poly-unsaturated, dishwasher safe and void where prohibited.

You might have greater success by focusing your post in the appropriate forum. This is for the ATG format.

Interesting point, Moose. But Seyclops wanted to invite other ATG'ers in first. He and I are part of a serial league just starting its 83rd season, and some of us wanted to try our hand with this special set of 2017 cards of current stars and other players. Some of us also chat it up occasionally ... from sports to science fiction to politics and beyond that's someone's personal interest or some such ... though its never required to participate -- and the delete key and delete button are always there if you don't even want to bother reading that chat either!
It's kinda family, in other words. But our one League of 12 won't be filling the entire new League, so Seyclops posted today's Notice. So hey you, be you The Moose or not --
if you're reading this, then come join us if you like! We're playing the 2017 Unleashed card set with an 88 Mil cap and DH on offense. ~~,__o

I have zero teams going, for reasons you've been made aware of. I doubt I will play any more. It would be pointless. I'm just here to provide whatever services I can - run a tournament, post some records, police the forums, provide random runs - or just clean out the toilet and sweep the floor if I need to. I presume that it wont be long before I turn out the lights when the party is over. I was here when it opened, I'll be here to wave it bye bye.
I just thought that he might catch on and post in the right place, since I didn't see a similar thread in the 20xx forum. Pardon my broom.

Thanks Mr. Moose, but Muadib is right -- we're hoping to draw in ATGers who want to achieve at least passing familiarity with the current set of players.

As usual in these cases, The Moose is proven correct! No new Flying Monkey entries.
Maybe he will up his inventory from zero teams to one teams now and become a true Flying Monkey with the rest of us! If not, Seyclops, you could invite him to a Jazz set out there on the Hatteras Spit come summer time ... and stuff

Frankly, I've been terrified of Flying Monkeys ever since I watched them whisk sweet little Dorothy off to face that green faced creature that thinks she's her "little pretty".

HELP!! Id like to join but I'm mostly an ATG. I've dabbled in the 60s and 70s mystery games but that's about it. First. What does the C number mean after the relievers IP mean? I'm sure ill have other questions but I'll ask them as they come up.
Thanks,
Ed
