Shall we split up the games into individual games?

I was thinking about a home and away series with division opponents, then play the third game towards the end of the season.
For non-division games, should I split it up? Or should we have a home and away 2 game series?

Here is the official ROM, take a look at it and let me know if changes are needed.

All the teams have a 5 for errors. National has 4 and American has 5 6 which is the two best in the game, so I took the number in between....5

[Nacho]

Who are the awesome badasses?

[Attezz]

Why is the number between 4 and 5, 5?

[Attezz]

Also, seriously, who wants to take over my team?

[Mike D.]

Why are your panties in a bunch?

[Darky]

The Awesome Bad Asses is Alec.

Sorry, in the default... Na has a 4 for errors, and American has 6...so I took 5.

Attezz, I can find a replacement for you if you wish. The pitching rotation is not set according to your wishes. It's set for the integrity and high standard of the game.
A RP who comes in the 5th inning after the SP has pitched his 4 innings has no juice left by the 7th inning and possible the 6th. That's sloppy baseball and will not be allowed in the Fantasy league. I'm going by the default setup in Watch mode when their pitching rotation is set in the first game of a Watch series.

What about the home and away series people?

[Nacho]

The Awesome Bad Asses is Alec.

That's the best name he could come up with?

[Darky]

He is 20 you know...

Also, for the Empire games, I will announce when I am going to play it, record the game on the rom and my video camera simultaneously, and show the time on my monitor and with dee nee time. I'll change windows to show that the game is live and totally random.

This should eliminate any doubt that I am playing God. If you wish to have the same done with your team for any reason, let me know.

The integrity of the Fantasy RBI will not be compromised in any way.

[Darky]

Never was it stated that you couldn't have a reliever start, in fact, several times you mentioned how I started to do better last year when I moved an RP to the starting slot.

Sure was Attezz. And I talked about this the other day as well.

Run differential?  Did you really put that as the #2 tie breaker?

You claim to be an NFL junkie yet you fail to recognize the NFL for their superb tie breaker rules, which very much apply to a short season such as ours.

Head to Head
Division Record
Record vs like opponents


It's a simple process that should never include run differential.

Good point. Amendment made except for the like opponents part. Run differential will be the last tie breaker.

[ryno]

Can someone post the ROM player and directions for use. . . . . . .  might help the new guys (and forgetful ones).

I think I started a thread a while back asking exactly these questions.  I would bump it but I don't remember what it was called.  It was right before the Fantasy IV season.  I'll look for it...

We had teams for "jeopardy" in discussion section on friday, and I named my team "team boba fett" because I got tired of the younger kids naming us after pokemon every week (no I'm not kidding).

I got a bunch of blank stares.  Only the 30 year old in my class knew what I was talking about.  Fucking kids!

[Darky]

New ROM's. I put them in the OP. Here they are again.

[AlecTrevylan006]

What the hell kind of discussion section are you in. I can't imagine anybody not knowing Boba Fett.

"Awesome Badasses" is an old inside joke amongst some friends of mine. I could change to "Indiana Jones' Fedora" or "Sean Connery's Chest Hair" or "Yob Tvoyu Maht" if you really want but I'm far too lazy to make a decisive decision on a better name.

Staying the fuck away from Star Wars names though with 2 here already.
