Contraction plan from Admin - Please read

Post by dabigtrain »

from Admin:

The JWL is currently scheduled for contraction.

The process is:

- The league continues its current season to completion. It will pause after the offseason.
- I unpause the amateur draft and it runs, pausing again.
- A new league is created with 16 teams.
- Copies of the teams continuing are created in the new league.
- The new league is started in the old league's place.

The new players have identical ratings to the originals, but as they are new players they will not have the history. However, links to the original players will be on the new players' player cards. Also, in the first season of the new league, all players are eligible for Rookie of the Year.

The teams to be contracted are:

AL:
Baltimore NattyBohs (Beanballs)
Boston van Beethovens (intheories)
Minnesota Swedes (fredbirds)
Washington Capitans (drewk68)

NL:
Chicago Hookers (cptcigar1970)
Florida Pirates (MNRebel)
New York Metropolitans (jjohn249)
San Francisco Barracudas (FrosteeTBear)

I did a quick check of the draft pick trades, and it doesn't look like anyone is owed a draft pick by one of these teams (not surprising, since they've been dormant for so long).

lets just hope this 16 team league stays together for awhile. We need continuity and this group seems to be that. Here's to a new bright future. Just a couple more weeks to go for the JWL!!!

I say lets ditch the Jeter (coming from an anti-yankee fan :) )

Thanks a lot for coordinating this train. I agree that those of us staying need to keep this league alive for a long time. Its been fun, so let's continue.

Yup, thanks to the Commish for working this out. It's a good way to go.

Yup, great league, great future, hip-hip-hooray! Looking forward to the 16-team version.

Yup, let's lose the "Jeter" please. Is there a "Luis Tiant League" por los cubanos?

Also it would be nice to know ahead of time when the draft will be unpaused. Deadlines, I need dealines!!!

Thanks! -- Morty
