Renewal/Merger Thoughts

Post by swope81 »

Guys, judging by the rest of the site, we are going to have a tough go of it at renewal. Chances are the open spots will never be filled and the league will be in a perpetual hold.

I put out a feeler in the GNL (which is having the same problem) about a possible merger. They are on board with it.

We'll have to work out some minor details such as GPD, development, and stuff.

I suggest we keep our development system here, go with 12GPD (that's just more attractive to veteran Owners), and switch to a subscription based renewal rather than a annual renewal (it'll keep us from having this problem again).


Any thoughts, suggestions, please share. I'm also going to link in the GNL guys so they can comment and we can get to know one another.

Thanks, Swope

I'm all for keeping the action going. With five leaving and two unknown, real Spring training could open before we're settled.

I'm up for a merger as long as we keep variable improvement.

I am good with a merger. Would we go to 24 teams or stay at 16? I'm good with either.

Can I get my credit for the 2nd place renewal prize in the GNL?

I think I would be in but I would like there to be no rule against tanking and for 16 teams. Also how does that different minor system work?

We have the 15-1 ranking system here.

That's a good question. I think the safe bet is 16, unless we have 12 active Owners in each league. I don't think we do though. And I am in both leagues so I only count as one.
