WBL Rule Change Thread

[Lloyd Carr]

one of youll go make a football version of OOTP.

baseball is getting boring

 

[doh]

I thought we expanded too much. Let's contract two teams (KWest and another team) and kill their players. I think that's the most fair way to go about it because if we do FA people will bitch and if we do a draft, well that will take forever.

 

[kella]

This shit is finally dying thank god

 

[Travis7401]

I think we should kill everyone but Douglass Tagg and then we should re-incarnate Kenney and then make them co-commissioners of SPACETOPIA BASEBALL LEAGUE. That would be a true "when the last shall be first" story.

Yup. Which is why back when there was talk of ANOTHER expansion, i was gonna walk if it happened. WBL was at its best when there were about 12 owners. Now theres 18(well, WAS 18) and its just too much.

WE DID IT

I'd love to hear which 6 (5 now) owners you think should be removed WolfBakingCookies21

Quit this

What are you even talking about? We expanded once ever. And one of those guys just won the whole damn thing. This is the oddest complaint to me. There will always be a disinterested owner or two. I guess we should just contract until it's just doh and wolfman playing each other 162 times.

 

[Travis7401]

I can't believe neither of them would man up and say they didn't want the riggers around. I had the "THAT'S RACIST" gif all loaded up and everything.

[Yankee151]

yea all of those are AWFUL upon reading them

 

[Wolfman21]

i like the 2nd random list, it seems to be the most fair.

 

[Yankee151]

I mean it depends on how we want to balance them, are we doing it on team's strengths right now or are we looking 5 years into the future?

 

[Schauwn]

Right now.

We can just go through this again in 5 seasons.

 

[Travis7401]

I think letting Schauwn and Lloyd Draft teams is the best idea.

 

[Yankee151]

[Travis7401]

I quit if we realign conferences (is this how you do it?)

 

[Yankee151]

Not going to start an entire new thread, so here is my simple proposal:

Sacrifical Lampship from a Best of 5 to a Best of 7
World Shampionship from a Best of 7 to a Best of 9

I would be open to removing the second option or adding a third option (League Shamp to 9 from 7) but the top one is the main one I want. We can argure in subsequent posts but Bo5 seems a bit too luck based, Especially highlighted this year by the fact I swept Helga by getting lucky then immediately got ran over by Dublin because my team is significantly weaker.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Im okay with Bo7

 

[Travis7401]

I second BO7

I would also like to propose an 8 hour time limit for the first round of the draft, during normal hours.

 

[Orlando]

I like best of 7. Don't want best of 9.

 

[Yankee151]

That sounds like enough of a mandate to take this to a poll, or should I just wait until someone comes in here and says no

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Bo 7, not bo9 although it's interesting.

 

[Wolfman21]

Bo7 is best. I feel like that's enough. Bo9 is almost redundant

 

[NML]

Bo7

Also be interested in setting up home field differently to help the #1/#2 seeds

 

[Yankee151]

That's 7 for 0 against. Technically needs two to pass but we also have two afk owners so

I might be open to different home field stuff too but I'd have to see it laid out first

 

[Orlando]

Obviously. That's a Lambship tradition.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

I like Best of 7

 

[ZackMills]

In favor of Best of 7

 

[Orlando]

To me 7 game Lambship passes to me. I'll implement next sim.

Any other rule changes, now is the time to bring them up.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

new divisions!

 

[Yankee151]

That passed too smoothly, where were the debates and name calling?

I also vote for new divisions every offseason

 

[Schauwn]

Regulation

 

[Orlando]

What do you want to regulate?

 

[Yankee151]

 

[Schauwn]

What do you want to regulate?

Are we serious? Or at the bar?

 

[Lloyd Carr]

I vote we regulate relegation

 

[NML]

Do you mean "relegation?"

 

[Mr. Radpants]

I vote we deregulate recreational drugs

 

[Schauwn]

Do you mean "relegation?"

Haha, this is what happens after a few beers at the bar.

 

[OU11]

Count me as down to regulate, mounting up.

 

[Bdub]

Best of 7 sounds good. No best of 9.

 

[Travis7401]

that 8 hour draft time limit, can I get a second? Some angry debate? ANYTHING?

I look forward to you'll using 7 hours and 58 minutes instead of 11 hours and 58 minutes.

 

[Orlando]

I'll give you a one word answer.

 

[Yankee151]

Maybe is a great one word answer to get the conversation going

Also I liked the post, which in my vague sense of doing things, means I agree. Series is at 3-1.

The shorter the better. TIME HAVE NOTS can build a list.

 

[Travis7401]

I recommend TIME HAVE NOTS purchase a space ship. Even a lowly sidewinder gives you the ability to jump LIGHT YEARS IN MERE SECONDS.

 

[Yankee151]

Not everyone's fit to reach Sag A. In fact, none of you'll are good enough to make it there yet, other than me. I can understand, it requires being a MENTAL FORTITUDE HAVE and most people just aren't
