Good question. I really have no idea if the CBL will upgrade or not. IIRC, we upgraded pretty consistently from OOTP4 through to OOTP6.5, but it took forever for it to go to OOTP9. I think probably the main stumbling block was that OOTP2006 just wasn't ready for the bigs and while OOTP2007 may have been there was still quite a bit of hesitation. Once it came to OOTP9's arrival I think what turned the tide was it was getting difficult to find replacement members so it was either upgrade or probably die within a year or so. That threat isn't going to be there with OOTP10, but it wasn't there with OOTP5 or 6 either so who knows.

Whatever we do I'm sure we won't do it right away, that we'll at least wait to see what all the solo players say and what some of the early adopting online leagues say.
