• A Partnership Program, where, based on tenure, you have a louder voice in the league.
• A "No Tanking Policy", to bring balance to the league based on past "Creative Owners" - which has had a ridiculously positive effect on the league, including bringing DOWN Revenue Sharing, and our most competitive seasons in league history.
  
  The 2040 Season, heading into the last SIM of the season had:
  7 playoff spots still available, and then
  4 playoff spots up for grabs with 8 teams still alive on the last day of the season

All that we need is for someone who has:

• an ability to be ACTIVE in the league (i.e. exporting regularly & Slack Usage)
• compete against the some of the best and most competitive GM's in OOTP universe
• work towards building a competitive and championship caliber franchise
• wants to be have a feeling of community, fraternity, and fellowship
• wants to be part of a REAL baseball experience

What you need to have:

• latest and greatest version of OOTP
• COMPUTER KNOWLEGE - an ability to follow instructions on how to setup a league on your computer (...2 potential GM's couldn't get past this step :shrug:
• ability to learn / know how to use SLACK
• a passion for baseball & general knowledge of baseball's administrative rules

We do not need to come to us with a cabinet full of trophies and / or accomplishments, just a willingness to compete, make new friends to banter with, and if you don't know OOTP league play - an ability to ask questions.
We have a stable group of GM's that are more than willing to share tips, tricks, tactics, strategy's and overall knowledge of the game, league, and OOTP.

ALL league communication is done via SLACK.

If this is you - we're interested!!.

PM & EMAIL me with your name and any questions you might have:

{email is checked quicker than looking for forum PM's}

Teams will be filled on a first offered, first accepted basis.

And thank you for considering us!

PALMETTO is available

We're into November 2037 now, about to finish our Championship Series (World Series next) and closing out our 19th season (since 2019).

We will be transitioning to OOTP 24 after the WS and I figured I'd post our opening here before we move to 24

[GTAltman]

Bump...

[GTAltman]

Still looking for that one great GM and fit

[GTAltman]

PALMETTO is available

The team is in great financial shape, and coming off their 11th straight playoff appearance - including 3 Championships during their run (last one in 2033)

Financially the organization is sound
Prospect wise, they have decent prospects in the pipeline but rank 24th.

If you are active, can export, know how to load a file, this may be the team for you

[GTAltman]

Vacancy has been filled.

Looking for 1 Owner
This team has made the playoffs 4 of the last 5 seasons, and 15 of the last 17 (2 Championships)

Farm System ranked 5th of 24 (as per OSA)
Financially Stable,

It is anticipated that this will be our final season in OOTP24, before transitioning into OOTP 25
