Latter "half" of June implies that if we were to start next week, the game would need to be 4 weeks start to finish. With 12 or 16 players drafting, unless everyone is incredibly active, the drafting will take a few weeks itself. Then a week of trading, write-ups each round? If there's four rounds of writing, we'll be into early July.

Cellar/All, I really appreciated you waiting for me for this game. But if it works out better that you start ASAP, then you can replace me if needed. If not, then I'm 100% down. Hope everyone's ready for this game... it's a good one!

Question. Can we use RNGs to determine who gets so select their specific team first, or is it simply first come first serve?

Well, last time the teams were randomly distributed. I think it should be that way this time too.

One more thing. What's the peak for each player? Single season? Five year stint? Career?

IMO 5 year, continuous, stint is the most accurate representation

As far as I know, we are still at least one short.

With regard to this, what does everyone think? The original game was going to be judged off the player as they are now.

I'm more than happy to put it to a vote if anyone has any opinions on it.

I think it should be like the original, and judge instant 1 year roster, who wins a title

otherwise it becomes way to much speculation and hype

OK I think that we have a consensus [somewhat] that the players should be thought of as good as they are right now.

If we still need one more guy maybe cellar can open a thread on the trade board to recruit someone?
