Writing league + real rosters!

rem · 08-27-2012, 12:28 AM

So, we've put together a great league with participation requirements to go along with real rosters but despite recruiting for several weeks we haven't been able to fill up the last couple teams. Seems perhaps the real rosters crowd often isn't into writing leagues and perhaps the writing crowd doesn't open up the real rosters threads often. I'm hoping with a more explicit thread title we can fill up the last few teams and get going!

Still available:

Detroit Tigers
Cleveland Indians
Seattle Mariners
Pittsburgh Pirates
Arizona Diamondbacks

League website

Please take a second to read the constitution and then submit an application. Please note that while we are serious about our participation requirements and will enforce them, we're not super exclusive. Anyone willing to meet the participation requirements is welcome in the league.

Things are shaping up nicely and with the last few teams filled we will be ready to kick this thing off. If anyone is interested, submit an app.

What's the latest openings list?

Please post here to claim your team

The link above is a running list of available teams.

By my count, although I could be off by one, there are potentially 3 teams remaining:
Oakland
Cleveland (depending on whether or not the latest app is accepted)
Chicago Cubs

Getting really excited as we near capacity. The gentlemen running NGB have really put some work into creating a mature community that encourages (and rewards) participation - if that's your thing, check out the constitution and submit an app before you miss out!

Only a few spots left, I'm getting excited! Don't miss your chance to get in on the ground level folks - check out the constitution and fill out an app in the forums!

Bumping this thread as we approach a first sim. I'm getting excited. Looks like it could be by the end of the weekend if we can fill those last few spots - the NGB looks like it has a ton of potential with some experienced commishes - don't miss out on a chance to get in on the ground level!

My first league team in OOTP5 was the Indians. Are they available?

agchris · 09-05-2012, 04:51 PM

I believe at the moment it's the A's and Indians that are still available. Looks like the Tigers GM may be backing out though. Check out the constitution at the link above and apply for a spot quickly if you're interested!
