I want to see how all of these players and teams evolve. Then I will create me a 16-team league and go back to controlling all teams and playing out the last three innings of every game. That is the way I can really get immersed in a league. I love to keep all the individual and league game records. I will do the new league after the final patch is released for OOTP10.

i’m hoping AI for managers and GMs will be expanded in future versions. The one thing i never liked about solo play is that the AI seems to play the same way for all the teams. They all want to same players. They all set their lineups the same way. So when i saw you manager’s names, i was hoping you knew something i didn’t.
i admire you playing out the end of all the games. But, i couldn’t do that. i always liked the way you reported the games. But i don’t want to use that style during the regular season. i want to save that for the post season.
And i was shocked when you chose to have so many teams in this league. That’s a lot to handle. i’m struggling with league size myself. i know i’ll want more than sixteen. i’m leaning toward 24.

I would be lost in your league, but I intend to follow it when you guys get it up and going. I don't know if you know it, but the Laseron and DreamTeams' Metro League are the ones that inspired me to create the Islandian Pro Alliance. I was fascinated by the creation of fictional worlds, maps and the great logos and uniforms.

It’s hard to go wrong with fictional worlds. i’m glad OOTP made room for them. i’m still a big fan of DreamTeams’ Metro League. i still have his site bookmarked even though he hasn’t updated in quite awhile. i’m hoping version 11 or 12 will get him interested in running his baseball league again. (His football league isn’t bad either.) When i do my solo league i’ll be modeling after Islandia and Metro.

That makes two of us. i was lucky enough to get in on the ground floor with the original Laseron. A few of the originals are making plans for this one. Hopefully, the New Laseron can be around for as long (or longer) that the original.
Anyway KUTGW, your dynasty gives me something to read at lunch.
