Looking for VSL Owners

[DiamondCutters]

Hi all,

Since the future of this league does not look bright, thought I'd let you know about a couple openings we will have in the Vin Scully League. Best league on the site, in my opinion, and a great group of committed owners. Alec and I are the commissioners, 24 teams, variable improvement. Hope some of you consider coming over!

Saw your post. I've limited my ownership to one league and chose the BHL because I love the rule set. I see that VSL is pretty similar. I don't know how tanking is in VSL but the anti-tanking rule in the BHL I believe drove the right focus (discouraged intentional tanking). But I can live without it. The one rule in the VSL that I did not like in other leagues is Retirement System 1, where you have no direct control over who retires and when. I much prefer Retirement System 2. I might be interested in VSL even with RS 2. How active are league owners? Sadly The BHL has gone quiet on that front.

I agree on the retirement system preference but I also think the VSL system is more realistic. Sometimes guys are going to retire before you think they would. As for tanking, I think you should be able to run your team the way you see fit. There is a good mix of owners in the VSL, some are successful without tanking but some have to tank because of their division (the highly competitive NL West).

A lot of high quality and active owners in the VSL, hope you'll consider joining us despite the settings not being an ideal fit for you!

Thanks for the heads up, for me retirement system 2 and a draft lottery/wheel are deal breakers, the eternal tank/draft high/win for a few years/sell off at 50 cents on the $1/tank again cycle is just not something I can put up with.

I guess the end of the BHL will be the end of the sim for me after more than 15 years and 430+ seasons. It's been mostly fun but less and less as the improvements stopped and the forums died.
