I didn't post in Online Leagues section because, well, I don't have a Online League yet. So I apologize in advance.

Okay. I simply want to set up a sort-of Online League just between myself and my father, and maybe a few friends in the future. We use different computers and will be living in different states.

The manual suggests we need a Web Server to upload the necessary files...

However, do we need a Web Server? After all, the manual pretty much sort of suggested it and not necessarily required it; at least that's how I perceived it the way it was written.

Is it possible to just simply, as the Comissioner, e-mail the bundled file(s) to your other Human Managers (in this case, my Dad and/or friends)?

I'm not web savvy with all that web server stuff. So I'm not too keen on going the Web Server route. Just looking for a very simple solution.

In a related question, when the Human Manager is able to download the Commissioner's bundled file(s), then obviously (depending on the Commissioner's upload settings) that Manager will be able to look up all the Player Reports, News, Statistical histories, etc., correct? Nothing will be missing, unless of course the Commissioner unchecked certain uploading settings.

Thanks.
