Our League - Season 5 - Page 23

Gold league:

Aomori will finish with a perfect 3-0 record (unless I missed more OL games in their schedule). Waxhaw takes the lead of teams eligible for the crown by standing pat. Plenty more games to go so could see a lot of shuffling in the standings.

I've got the revamped OL Series trophy pretty much ready to go. Let's hope I get to pull it out this weekend!

Still need a few logos, so I'll post a wish list later.

SaukCentre and Long Beach Landsharks

revmcgator · 06-02-2022, 10:12 AM

Terra Incognita takes the lead.

sabakon · 06-02-2022, 11:03 AM

Sigh. This is the story of my luck with packs...

Thanks Commish.

OK, logos I still need (I've been a bit flakey about chasing these up and got lucky at the weekend!):

New York Patriots
Baltimore Barons (I know it's somewhere deep into last year's thread - but I gave up looking...)
Auckland Athletics
Doug Outs
Detroit Spirits - Haven't seen their logo yet, so don't know if it's generic or not.
Shinbone Stars
Brooklyn Dynasty - If Magus is using his fancy one.
Coney Island Warriors - Better have the red on black text AND the one that makes everyone hungry

Would be cool to have them all for this weekend

I'm trying to re-imagine both the Patriots and Dynasty logos. Unfortunately I was born with negative artistic talent. Might be awhile before I can come up with brand new things for them.

I actually know what I want for Brooklyn, but the only thing I can draw successfully are stick figures. I don't think that'll work.

Are we okay with getting PP for the ALS donations or will that violate our rules on purchasing PP?

Stanley Kuppchaser · 06-02-2022, 05:49 PM

Not sure which Barons logo is the preferred. The order is New York, Baltimore, Baltimore, Brooklyn, Coney Island.

Stanley Kuppchaser · 06-02-2022, 05:55 PM

Not sure if the Auckland is right. It's from at least two seasons ago. The other is Shinbone.

Stanley Kuppchaser · 06-02-2022, 06:00 PM

How about this?

That's grand, cheers Stanley. Looking at a table from last week, Auckland have a different one, but that'll do for now.

If you're getting PP for money, I suppose it's gotta be a yes really. Just out of curiosity, how much are we talking about?

What's your plan?

$100 donation gives 25k; I think $250 donation gives 50k (not sure on this one); and $500 donation gives 100k.

I know I'm new here, but it seems odd that we would punish people who chose to donate to a cause sponsored by OOTP and got some amount of PP for it which won't amount to a ton in the grand scheme (and is significantly less than they would normally get for that price).

HRBaker · 06-02-2022, 10:39 PM

Just a shout-out for Ice Box Chamberlain of the Baltimore Barons. On July 17, 2025 he pitched an 11 inning No-Hitter with 3 BBs - earning the Barons 7,150 PPs

...and adding his last start, 27 scoreless innings!

for my 2 cents, gotta say I'm in MathBandit's camp on this one.... I don't believe the OOTP-ALS donation campaign was around when OL started with PT19 (maybe it did, can't remember)... but I'm thinking this one can be an exception (and maybe we write it into the official OL rules, assuming the ALS day donation drive will be a regular thing)... playing a semantics game you're giving money for a good cause and didn't buy the PP, they just awarded you some as a thanks (and yeah, in the grand scheme of things, it's not a game changer.... heck, I've probably won that much or more in giveaways, tourneys and card sales and it hasn't made my bunch a juggernaut

)

anyone have an issue with that approach here?

I have no issue with donations being rewarded with points.
