The Billy Chapel Historical Baseball League started with an inaugural draft and players based on the MLB of the year 1980.
If you are new to OOTP and have not been in another league for at least a month that used version 9 or 10... this may not be the league for you. The managers that make up the league at this point are veterans of the OOTP online community. Teaching a rookie getting their first taste of OOTP online league play is not going to happen successfully 9 times out of 10 in this particular league. I've been around long enough to see the statistical data for a league like this.
BUT if you are an OOTP veteran who is ready for a historical/fiction league based (from the start) on the MLB as it was in 1980... yet with an inaugural draft (but absolutely NO recal of ratings/talent)... you could be in for a surprise. The creators of the former
CDBL,
BCBL, as well as many of the current
SIMBL are joining forces to bring you a league that is complete on all fronts. A team of commissioner and two simmers. A first rate website with one universal login for all features (accept StatsLab) including the forum and news articles. Use of the state of the art OOTP utility, StatsLab will be used. The commissioner of the BCHBL is the guy who gave Frank Homess the idea to incorporate widgets into StatsLab.
For more information you can see our
Interactive Online League Directory profile. OR read through our
constitution/rules.
To get on the waiting list for the BCHBL you MUST fill out a complete BCHBL registration form. The form can be found here:
