League 7 filled, so based on this post from mesquiton I went ahead and created Event 3 League 8:

mesquiton wrote:The commish has been too busy and requested help setting up Event 3 leagues, so if you have a team ready, you can start League 7 yourself (make it "advanced", same parameters as League 6 above)...if it doesn't fill eventually, fillers will no doubt be called on to finish it in September!

2013 regular set, NO DH, $80M cap, 20% drop

According to http://onlinegames.strat-o-matic.com/to ... #left_info, deadline for entry is Sept. 10, but it would be great to fill this well before then.

Only 7 slots left, and it looks like there are eight who have entered the first two events who do not yet have a team for event 3 (accuracy of list not guaranteed):

Brent65
Carlerik
Edthrelkeld
jmoore1966
i.strether
Phenomenal
Roggie
vrabek22

I would not want to be the person left out of this league!

Bump. Still need 7. How long does the commissioner wait before fillers are solicited?

It's been over three weeks since GBrookes made this ruling on Event 5:
gbrookes wrote:Ruling - two round draft stands, but serpentine, with the option to pick either a player or a ballpark in round 1, with the round 2 pick being used to pick a ballpark if not already taken in round 1.

However, the championship rules page on this forum still says the Event 5 two-round draft is "not serpentine." And the official tourney page says there will be a "1-round player draft" instead of the two-round serpentine player/stadium draft promised in the ruling.

Considering my Event 1 team bit the dust, I'm just waiting for GBrookes to actually change the rules page and tourney page to reflect his ruling. Why pay 60 more dollars just to get smashed in an Event 5 still stacked against players who did poorly in Event 1?

The rules page still says the Event 5 2-round draft is not serpentine even though GBrookes ruled it would be. The moment he does, I'm in for the league. If he doesn't by Sep. 10, then It's "til next year" for me.
