If you are a regular reader of this forum, you have undoubtedly come across a thread or two about the Figment Universe (currently there are 11 threads that are chronicling various bits and pieces of the Figment world:
https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...archid=6266405). The creator of Figment (@legendsport) is on the verge of launching another online league:
Mythic Baseball. Mythic will be a divergent form of the Figment timeline. Mythic will begin in 1886 using the Figment Universe from 1885 as a starting point. From there, how the story unfolds is an open question.
As in the Figment timeline, I will be running the Chiefs in the Mythic timeline. As least for now that is. One of the twists in Mythic is that clubs may fold based on on-field and economic performance. Of course, given that the Chiefs are owned by William W. Whitney, the founder of the Century League, seems to indicate that the Chiefs are safe from folding. But ultimately, one never knows what the future holds.
I'll be using this thread to chronicle the history of the Chiefs in this--the Mythic--timeline. In the next few posts--while we wait for the start of league activities next week--I'll cover some of the history of baseball up to our 1886 starting point.
