teams in the the correct geographical location
Hey guys,
So I had perspective owner ask me today if we had a rule to keep the teams in the correct geographical division. I know this something we wanted when we started the league, but we never actually made a rule of it.
I think this is something that is pretty easy to implement(I'll just ask owners before I give the password to the league to choose a team that fits the division location). One of the new owners already took Ari in the NL east, and we can let this slide one time. But in the future if you want me to ask the future owners to keep in the right division just give your opinion here.
I vote yes to it.
If it looks like majority of the league likes it and there aren't any nays(I expect no one would be against this), we can start this.

Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
Ideally it would be nice to keep each division geographically correct; however with it being so difficult to attract owners lately I wouldn't want to lose a good owner because he couldn't select his team of choice.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
I'd ask the new owner if he can switch to a city located in the eastern or central part of the country. If he refuses, then I 'd drop it I guess.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
That's what I was kind of leaning, light suggestion, if they absolutely don't want to then I would leave it alone.
I only bring it up because a perspective owner(there may be more like him) wanted to be in a league that was geographically accurate. Just want to appease the masses.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
Dont mind either way. Wouldnt want to lose an owner over it.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
I've never looked or noticed, so if they want to spend extra money and time on travel I'm fine with it.
Seems like a strategic disadvantage;-P

Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
Don't care in the slightest
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
I'm on board with mr1313. It would likely be less stressful to allow owner (which could be limited) to choose their own team so we can continue moving forward in the league. It may be possible if the coding isn't linked to specific divisions to seek a manual code change which could move teams to proper divisions? I could see it being a problem being between AL and NL but between divisions it may be possible??? as All-stars and other pages etc would not be effected.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
My apologies. I was not aware of the geo location requirement when picking my team. I tried to go change it because it doesn't matter to me but it doesn't look to be doable unless I am able to get admin handle it.
Re: teams in the the correct geographical location
We will see what happens. I submitted a ticket to have my team changed to Pitt, since that is the team I am replacing. Doesn't really matter to me.
Looking forward to play in this league.
