The Western Hemisphere Baseball League Launches

enuttage · 06-26-2004, 04:05 PM

New league folks. Nothing too flashy. Fictional players, fictional teams. About 10 GMs that are extremely experienced in online play (not all of it OOTP), and that are extremely good guys.

Please shoot me an e-mail, pm, or post here if you're interested. Experience doesn't matter to me, but a fun-loving, yet competitive attitude and the willingness to stick around for awhile are good selling points.

A lot of thought has been put into the league in regards to geography, history, etc. And we're in it for the long run. Should be a ton of fun.

Take a look around, see whatcha think -

Bump.

We're more than 1/3 filled now.

enuttage · 06-28-2004, 11:35 PM

Bump. Trying to get at least 12 in each league before the start. Hoping to have the initial draft within 7-10 days.

I've checked out your website, read over the rules and everything, and let me tell you that this looks like it could be one heck of a league! I'm very interested in getting involved.

I'll take any team you've got that's still available, but I'd prefer the Calgary team.

I have a lot of experience with OOTP and online leagues in general. I've been playing since OOTP3 in both solo and online leagues. I've been a member of 4 online leagues (3 of which sadly didn't last more than a single season). I also have a few months experience as a fill-in commissioner for the FMLB (www.fmlb.org), where I am currently a player, GM of the Port Townsend Lumberjacks.

I am a very friendly, dedicated, and competitive player, and would love to be a part of the WHBL!

Send me an e-mail at: brandoparker@hotmail.com, or talk to me on AIM, my User ID is: gh0rticus.

Hope to hear from you soon,

Brandon

Thanks for the interest Jevon. Go ahead and register on the site and claim any of the following Latin teams:

Bogota Bullets
Buenos Aires Dorado
Caracas Cocodrilos
Cuidad Juarez Chupacabras
Guadalajara Fightin' Monks
Guatemala City Quakes
Guayaquil Tigrillos
Havana Leones
Lima Toros
Mexico City Aguilas
Quito Mosquitos
San Juan Senators
Santiago Saints
Santo Domingo Dragons

I know Cuidad Juarez is a stretch, since we're basically talking about greater El Paso.

Anyway, once you're registered, head to the forums and claim your team by selecting the team avatar in your user profile. Then post on the test forum, so we know you're there. Initial draft is tentatively planned for sometime mid-week, next week.

We'd be happy to have you on board!

Good question. I'm not sure. If you click on the players the ratings show up on their cards.

I'm re-upping the file tonight, since it may be corrupted anyway, so I'll re-export and re-up the html reports also. We'll see if that fixes it.

-E

p.s. Guadalajara is gone now too. Sign up now! The Southern League still has quite a few openings.

OoTpFrEaK · 06-30-2004, 09:13 PM

I forgot to tel you.. I dont own OOTP. I never have, but i can assure you I am very experienced. I just e-mail my likneups. I hope that is ok.

enuttage · 07-01-2004, 08:29 AM

Buenos Aires, Havana, DC, San Juan and Santo Domingo are gone now. We're filling up quickly. Snag a team if you're interested.

enuttage · 07-01-2004, 06:15 PM

Keepin' it at the top. Trying to flesh out the league so we can get crankin' on the initial draft after the holiday weekend.

-E

enuttage · 07-02-2004, 02:13 PM

One last boost before the holiday weekend...

Tryin' to fill it up!

Also, Vancouver, Jacksonville, Bogota and Santiago may be available depending on interest.

I was going to contract them, but due to high interest, I may open the teams back up again.
