TPWW Fantasy Baseball
 
Registration for Yahoo! leagues begins shortly after midnight tonight, and as usual, there will be at least ONE TPWW fantasy league, one of which I will commish. Twelve spots in the league, however, normally in the league I run we try to maintain the managers that we had the year before. Sadly, I can only remember a few of the peeps we had last year. But, here are people that have spots reserved for them if they PM me after I make the league.

Myself
CNM
Hero (if anyone can contact him and tell him that his spot is held, it would be much appreciated)
KOOS
mitch_h
The Outlaw
BlackRavyyn
Supreme
Moonax (if you want)

...that's all I can remember off the top of my head..which leaves 3 spots open temporarily maybe more though depending on some of the people listed (i.e.: CNM and Hero's comps are fucked, Moonie might not wanna play in my league, I dont talk to mitch very much...)

But yeah, feel free to get a hold of me if you're interested.

MoRcHeEbA 02-16-2005 05:35 PM

yeah I was in it last year aswell. I will do it again this year.

Rain Man 02-16-2005 05:39 PM

I'll play even though I don't know shit about baseball

Splaya 02-16-2005 05:47 PM

mitch_h 02-16-2005 08:39 PM

Hey Dave do you think you could post like a history of TPWW Fantasy Baseball. Just because i'm interested to see whose won "the chapionship" each year.

DaveWadding 02-16-2005 09:39 PM

I think Hero has won all 4 years, if I remember correctly, hence why I dont want to give away his spot.

BCWWF 02-16-2005 10:18 PM

A renegade league is forming

Crimson 02-16-2005 10:28 PM

I'll join in anyone of the 10 leagues you guys make up.

I would do it but it looks like there's already mad people in it.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-17-2005 01:17 AM

He said he didn't know anything about baseball. Therefore, he's out. You want the league to be competitive right?

Also, if there was one person I'd out and out exclude for personal reasons, it'd be Moonax, yet he still has a team reserved for him...

Supreme Olajuwon 02-17-2005 01:33 AM

and that clearly had nothing to do with your exclusion of him

Supreme Olajuwon 02-17-2005 01:33 AM

Maybe it's because he thinks you're a faggot and he wants to play fantasybaseball with the other people in the league.

What would really be good is 2 leagues, but the commish in each league can only play in the other league, that should keep most people from crying over decisions made.

Loose Cannon 02-17-2005 06:19 PM

Rain Man 02-17-2005 06:45 PM

LC ill join if that is cool

EN 02-17-2005 06:50 PM

Dave you are the worst Commish this side of the guy who got shot.

I wanna have fun and your leagues always end up being bullshit because you never listen to the opinions of the people who are playing your league and just go on a power trip.

Nothing personal, I just think you are too immature to make a good commish. Reading this thread and the way you have dealt with people shows that nothing has changed.

Supreme you ran a good league last year. If you run it again I'll sign up for it.
Loose Cannon I'll sign up for yours and if the guy from Edmonton runs the Rotis league again I'll be in for that.

I've given Scot the info that the leagues are up and running.

I didn't even make the league yet. I'll do it Saturday. Hold your horses please.

Loose Cannon 02-18-2005 01:11 PM

is 1250 a good Max innings pitched? forget what I usually play on

Loose Cannon 02-18-2005 04:24 PM

K, made the league. I'll PM the guys who are listed on page 1 when I see them online. I only made 14 spots, so some of you didn't get in due to limited space. Sorry.

If anyone wants me to make changes to positions/stats/draft day and stuff, just PM me or post here. I don't really care about that stuff, I just wanna play, so whatever you guys want is fine :y:

mitch_h 02-18-2005 04:32 PM

Anyone talk to RBM?

EN 02-18-2005 04:48 PM

14 is too small. 16 or 18 is good.

Can you send me the details. I'd like to get my team/draft set up ASAP.

lesser teams makes the talent pool to thin?

:wtf:

EN 02-18-2005 05:25 PM

I was talking about getting the number of teams and number of players on the rosters right.

You can have 14 teams but if each team has 30 players and a huge number of slots to fill then you end up with a thin talent pool. Tiny rosters are also pretty shit because teams just get stacked.

DaveWadding 02-18-2005 05:56 PM

12 and 25 is the best.

Loose Cannon 02-18-2005 06:14 PM

who cares if I have 2 more teams. It's just for fun. Unless you were giving me a cash prize for winning, I'm not going to take it too seriously.

I mean 12 teams and 25 roster spots per team. No one in their right mind should be able to justify even a 20 team league.

First year we did FFB or was it baseball, didn't we have something stupid like 20 teams?

Fair enough.

A couple of comments.

Complete games - the top guy had 9 last season. It's a pretty rare stat and one that is more random. The same for Shut Outs, Jason Schmidt led the league had he only had 3 all year. But I can see why you've got them as its a rotis league.

A couple of suggestions - holds. These normally work pretty well. They give value to a whole set of players.

Fielding stats are also pretty good as well and stop the league being too power-based. I enjoy having to make pay-off decisions, a guy with a good bat but who makes a lot of errors. A guy who turns a lot of DPs but doesn't have much power.

Only 2 bench spots is pretty small as well, maybe increase it by a couple and 3 DL spots is better than 2.

But its looking good and since I won the Rotis league last year I'm looking forward to defending my title.

Is anyone going to run a big head 2 head league like last year? Supreme? You did a good job last year.

DaveWadding 02-18-2005 06:50 PM

football maybe. I remember you being in the baseball league though and we've always only had 12.

For once, I agree with him.

Loose Cannon 02-18-2005 06:57 PM

K, I'll change a few of the stats later. I never played in a league that counted fielding stats, so I just thought people hated them. I'll include them then.

Included CG cause Mulder got me a ton a points a coupleof years ago with his CG and I've always been partial to that. Same with Shutouts. I'll keep those.

I had the bench at 5 and thought it was to much. I'll change that andthe DL then :y:

Fielding Stats suck.

No, because people will start bitching about how it cost them match ups. Believe me I have seen it happen

EN 02-18-2005 10:33 PM

People will always bitch about how stuff costs them match ups.

Fielding stats adds something extra to the decisions you have to make. I'm not saying have every fielding stat, you could have a positive and negative stat. The league has wins AND losses as stats, so why not errors and assists. Players get rewarded for good play and punished for bad. Just as you do with batting and pitching.

This is a rotis league not a head to head so if someone has a bad day and makes 3 errors it shouldn't cost you in the long run. If they do it on a regular basis then you have to decide about whether or not to keep them in the line-up. The same way that the BoSox had to decide whether or not to play Ortiz at 1st in the WS.

Each league should also have something a bit different about it. Stuff like CG and SHO are something different and so are fielding stats. Experiment, if you don't think they work then next year you'll know. The leagues that had them last year they worked well.

The Answer 02-18-2005 10:54 PM

I would prefer the league to be H2H..... Who's with me?

BlackRavyyn 02-18-2005 11:35 PM

And here I was going to post about starting up my rotis league again. Well I can if there's interest but I'll let Joey's fill up first...

RoXer 02-19-2005 11:48 AM

Yeah, WTF, I thought LC had a H2H league and I had the rotis.

LC, is your league rotis? Cause I think I'll delete mine if that's the case. Or I'll start another H2H league.

OssMan 02-19-2005 12:04 PM

WTF where is my PM

Also put on fielding stats.

RoXer 02-19-2005 12:19 PM

Ok, LC has the Rotis League, I changed my league to H2H.

Does anyone have any suggestions about scoring/rosters/ any of that stuff? I just might consider your suggestions.

Loose Cannon 02-19-2005 12:37 PM

OK, due to a lot of complaints, I'm just going to keep the league the way it is. Didn't want to start a war over free fantasy baseball on yahoo.com.

If you don't like the league, you can leave and others will take your place.
