Trying cristano's preferred "4 Aces" strategy in Polo Grounds.

The bad news is no Bobby Wallace.

I've got Bobby Wallace on my team :) So, I wonder, why didn't cristano join the league?? C'mon, how often do we get a league named for ourselves? :)))

Well the last "tribute" league Riggo started was the Radagast Brown Invitational. He didn't show up either.

"Nuff said.

BTW not sure if Polo is the ideal place for the 4 Aces. I just started a 4 ace team myself at 100M. First one I think I've tried in a while. https://365.strat-o-matic.com/team/1538652

So far so good, but I find the strategy kind of boring, the team basically runs itself.

I do think the best antidote to it is a park like Fenway '67 where the 4 aces are likely to get fatigued more often by the high run scoring environment and which then exposes the complete lack of a viable bullpen.

Gotta stop doing these tribute leagues Riggo, driving people out of the game. Third straight league you named or called out someone for and they didn't show up. First one was a DH league.

If you are referring to me, it is because I never got an invite... Which is Riggio's exact strategy for Barnstormers. He dodges the hard leagues and cherry picks leagues full of less experienced managers...

Chrissie: you should probably hold off on the trash talk until you actually make it into the BS finals. :lol:

I'm pretty sure the subject of the thread was referring to you since your name was explicitly mentioned. :roll:

Nice job winning the semi's but in the lottery final I have you as a virtual toss up vs Diamond Doug.

I had no idea someone named a league after me. I would have joined if I knew.

But now I am deep with six teams and the start of the MYSTERY TOURNAMENT.

Too late now because I am knee deep holding on to 1st place in the Mystery Tournament.

But how are we supposed to know if we don't even get an invite to the league? Unlike The Last Droid I have a life outside of SOM.

I'm making money, I'm going here, going there, clocking the bizzank. So if y'alls want me in a league you have to message me.

But no more ATG8 for me until the tournament is over.
