Free Agent GM

rfbranch · 12-09-2004, 02:59 PM

Hello all, I'm a fairly experienced single player GM who has completed 4.5 years of playing time (all games played, non simmed) in OOTP5 who is looking to move up to an online league with real human competitors.

I would love to be invovled in a league that has a full 162 game schedule, with a flexible schedule that makes allowances for my inconsistent work schedule.

I am more than willing to take over an orphaned team (they can be terrible, I am used to it as I usually take the Brewers in my single player leagues) in a currently operating league but since I'm new to this thing all I ask is for is a little patience from my fellow players and a some guidance to get started.

Any advice/links etc. from more experienced players/commissioners is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

the West Coast Baseball League might be the league for you. You can check out the thread here:http://ootpdevelopments.com/board/sh...ad.php?t=86716

It is a 1995 fictional league that is still looking for teams.

ABL Old-School is an OOTP5 league with a number of bad teams open. First link in sig.

Do you like history? Reds and Tigers open (1958)

FORT is using OOTP6, but has 2 openings if you're interested...

For OOTP5 leagues, I would highly reccomend remangiii's league.

PBL has a Houston opening I beleive. Good league... you might give it a try. Link is in my sig.

Thanks man. I'd highly recommend your OOTP6 league (only if your not interested in Boys of Summer...of course

)

thanks for the many responses so far, what I should have included in my post is that I have a nearly unused OOTP6 installed on my computer as well that I would like to take a spin with in multiplayer action.

AGain, thanks all for the help and patience with a newbie

I know you've gotten a lot of offers, but I hope you'll consider this one:
Need 3 active, mature owners who want a challenge!
It would be quite the challenge.
Birmingham is available as well. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact rjw8625@rochester.rr.com
