Looking for help with a new league

holyroller · 06-23-2002, 03:17 AM

I am wanting to create a new OOTP 4 on-line league and was hoping I could get some help from you diehards out there. The plan is to create a league starting in 1946 and following baseball history in terms of franchise relocations and expansion. The Lahman database would of course be used. I am not a master at HTML (although I know enough to get something up) so I would love to have a webmaster who could make a website look really sharp. I would also need league presidents with veto power and also to help with the writing of league rules, power in trade vetos, etc. Also, the Lahman database does not put all players at their correct positions and is often wrong with their rankings of players defensive abilites. I would want to adjust this both before the season starts and as rookies are imported in to the league. Anyone who could help with this or could simply post a link to a site that would help would be greatly appreciated. Anyway, let me say that I am very commited to this and am looking forward to hearing from you. E-Mail me at astralhaze25@attbi.com

hey fellow SBL-er. i'm the webmaster for our current league (although thats not my work thats up right now, mmine will be by the end of the day.)
scottvib's corrections to lahmans database should be fine for the league.
will this league have a full live draft? (of course, broken up by sleeping and eating schedules.

) if so, count me in for applying.

No, the league would start as is, without a draft. As for the corrections, I found that baseball reference has everything I need and I'm going through by hand and correcting what needs to be corrected. Would still love to have you aboard.
