Terraveritas
Posted 08-30-2012 at 02:45 PM by JWay
Welcome to the continent of Terraveritas. A fictional continent on the planet Earth where three Nations occupy all the resources necessary to be self-sustaining and private from the rest of the world’s affairs. The continent itself only spreads roughly over a quarter million square miles which makes it slightly larger than the states of South Dakota, North Dakota and Minnesota combined.
The land is well populated in several major cities, over a hundred large towns, and countless tiny villages and townships. The continent is made up of three nations that cover larger land masses and smaller islands. The Veritas Republic contains four states and nine islands. Tankamaka sits South just off the coast of the Veritas Republic across the Veritas Channel. Finally, the Nation of Flotia resides in the East and while connected to the Veritas Republic, they are separated by the Green Ridge Mountains.
Baseball has been a long pastime and national sport of all three nations for decades of years. Catching up to the year 2001, the three nations got together and decided it was time to develop an integrated baseball system. The three nations sport hundreds of ball clubs ranging from profession, semi-professional, amateur and prep. The facilities around the land range from good to pristine, as even the smallest of towns find a way to attend their local amateur teams.
Starting in 2001 these teams were combined to form the first ever Terraveritas Baseball League. The organization is comprised of four leagues of 20 teams each ranked in tiers. The four leagues are ranked in levels of Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze. The TBL allows the best teams of each league to either be crowned champion or be promoted to the next higher league, in order to move those teams up, the bottom teams of each League’s table will be relegated to the lower league.
The TBL will have no playoffs, and they will play a balanced 152 game schedule largely compromised of 4 games series, played against each team in the table, one series home, one series away. The balanced schedule is best suited to produce the best of the best. The top two tiers are largely based in the Veritas Republic, with the other two leagues being largely based in Flotia. However, starting in 2001, the teams were dispersed into the four leagues largely based on their past histories in various leagues or seasons, plus a monetary contribution.
Creator note: The TBL will be played in my personal free time, which comes and goes. I plan to start with a bottom league team and do my best to raise them through the ranks. I will leave the ability to get fired to remain on, and let the game influence the direction I take going forward. Thanks for following!
