Randomination 10League Created. You may draft and enter team

I'll trust you for season 1, if I get a really bad spot or you get a really good one I'll change my vote for season 2

It's nice to have someone to blame it on.

I found a generator that will time stamp the number string. I just need to be able to post the screen shot is all. I'll fiddle with this after I finish a few chores. Anyway, here's some procedures, guidelines about park and general leagUse stuff.

The first string will be 1-12,one number, indicating which lot.

The second strand will be ballpark assignments from that lot.

Unassigned parks simply do not get used, either now, or in future seasons.

Once we use a lot, the lot disappears from the list. The remaining lots are used in subsequent seasons.

A new season will not commence until the previous season has ended. Solicitation of managers for the new season (starting with re-ups from currrent managers) may begin during the playoffs of the current season. No new managers are brought in until a current manager resigns from the league.

This league will run 12 seasons (until we're out of lots).

I trust you, after all you are "honest"iago

another vote for trust. it's high time the name "iago" didn't suffer from a 400 year-old stereotype...

"By the faith of man, I know my price. I am worth no worse a place."

If we get a majority of "trust" nods, I'll be happy to do it.

It's all good with me...

I am going to use random.org to generate the numbers. It does sequences and such, and time stamps the entry, BUT...if I insert the link to the sequence page, it generates a new set of numbers when you click on the link. So...

I will generate a set of random numbers at 8 p.m. CST today, then take a screen shot of it. If you want to see the screenshot, I can share it with you via Google Docs, or email personally as an attachment. I will do this for all strings I run.

Alrighty, now waiting 5 mins before running the Lot number for the ballparks. May God have mercy on us all (especially me).

P.S. Since the generator generates a sequence, I will use the first number that appears in the LOT string.

Okay, even better on G-Docs. I have it setup where, when I take a screen shot, it saves the pic to my dropbox, so there should be a timestamp on the file generation, too.

Anyway, the sequence was:
5
1
3
9
8
2
12
6
11
4
10
7

So, we start with Lot #5:
LOT 5:
1 Arlington Stadium '78 Grass 35,185 7 7 5 5
2 Briggs Stadium '57 Grass 52,416 14 14 19 16
3 Cleveland Stadium '57 Grass 78,000 1 8 8 16
4 Connie Mack Stdm '64 Grass 33,000 12 3 1 8
5 Dodger Stadium '78 Grass 56,000 9 9 12 12
6 Fenway Park '67 Grass 33,524 20 18 17 20
7 Griffith Stadium '11 Grass 32,000 5 5 19 5
8 Kauffman Stadium '05 grass 40,625 10 13 2 2
9 Memorial Stadium '78 Grass 53,208 4 4 4 4
10 Olympic Stadium '78 Turf 43,739 3 3 5 5
11 Rickwood Field (NeL) Grass 10,800 2 1 5 2
12 Shea Stadium '64 Grass 55,601 8 8 4 13
13 Sportsman's Park '57 Grass 30,500 7 7 12 6
14 Tropicana Field '05 turf 45,000 8 5 9 6
15 Wrigley Field '63 Grass 36,755 4 13 19 10

I have used exactly TWO of the parks on this list, and really, really, really dread getting Fenway '67.

Next step will be to assign parks. I will then go online, and create the league. You will be able to start putting together teams tonight, if you wish.

Here is the order in which we signed up:
1 honestiago, aka "Bound for (no)Glory."
2 george barnard, aka "Random Up, Pardner"
3 BC15NY, aka "Rio Roulette"
4 mykeedee, aka "Wonder? Boy"
5 tmfw30, aka "stoked for stochasticity"
6 bcousy57, aka "Zihuatanejo"
7 djp_77, aka "Quahog Quagmire"
8 DARRELLPICKELL, aka "Mackinac Islanders"
9 jlt53, Irrational Numbers
10 Rosie2167, "Adios Pelota"
11 Eveldrive, aka "Accidental Algorithms"
12 Ironwill1

There are 15 teams in this lot. I will now generate a string from 1-15, assigning the string to us in the order in which we signed up (as previously demonstrated):

5
4
2
10
1
3
9
13
7
6
15
11
14
8
12

BALLPARK ASSIGNMENTS:
honestiago=5 Dodger '78 (9-9, 12-12)
george barnard=4 Connie Mack Stadium '64 (12-3, 1-8)
BC15NY=2 Briggs Stadium '57 (14-14, 19-16)
mykeedee=10 Olympic Stadium '78 (3-3, 5-5)
tmfw30=1 Arlington Stadium (7-7, 5-5)
bcousy57=3 Cleveland Stadium '57 (1-8, 8-16)
djp_77=9 Memorial Stadium '78 (4-4, 4-4)
DARRELLPICKELL=13 SPortsman's Park '57 (7-7, 12-6)
jlt53=7 Grifith Stadium '11 (5-5, 19-5)
Rosie2167=6 Fenway '67 (20-18, 17-20)
Eveldrive=15 Wrigley '63 (4-13, 19-10)
Ironwill1=11 Rickwood Field (2-1, 5-2)

Unsed=14 Tropicana '05
Unused=8 Kaufmann '05
Unused=12 Shea Stadium '64

Let me know if I messed up any assignments. I had some troubles with my computer display (I accidentally put it on split screen and can't get the damned thing back to normal view).:-/

For the record I DO play Dodger '05 a LOT. However, I have only played Dodger '78 once before, with an '84 win team. It would not be my first choice from this list (Connie Mack would, which was the other park I actually used on this list, and many times).

Since I know my park assignment is correct. I will generate the league, then come back and post information.

Thanks all for participating! My Sacrificial Lambs will be ready for slaughter.

So where is the players' list for this?

Hmmmm...can't seem to generate the player set. When I click the button, it gives me a league number in the address bar, but no player set.

I cannot seem to generate a list of 1,000 players, with all BP's available (since we need the full table to ensure our parks are there). I keep going to the create player list page, I click on create, it tells me my league is named: ______.

It just leaves a blank space. When I go to browse the set, it does not appear. I also tried, "create a team using this set," which takes me back to the create page, but there is no league created by me on the list.

Any clue as to what I may be doing wrong?
