Hey everyone, I'm here today to put forth an idea of creating an online league. When thinking of MVP Leagues, the first league that comes to mind from MVP is TSL (The Sandlot.) TSL was a great league when active which was a franchise style online league and worked beautifully. As it faded away I always wanted to re-up and create with a MVP baseball league however it would of been hard to get about 16-24 owners on the same mod, and all. But that all ends today if given the possibility. With the MVP12 mod out now, it would be easy to use that mod for our base of the league.
How can this work?
Connection: Since MVP is outdated with the online interface, how can we connect? Well thats easy we can do it 2 different ways. We can direct connect which is an IP to IP connection. (Can find out IP on whatismyipaddress.com) Or sometimes that might not work, no worries we can also use the program Hamachi which works wonders as well. Hamachi sets up an alternative IP address for you and works like AIM a little where you invite your opponent to your room than you exchange IP addresses. (http://hamachi.en.softonic.com/)
Communication: AIM (http://www.aim.com/) A big part of this league would be do to activity for make it work and schedule games. So it would be required for everyone to have AIM, its a free program at the site I linked right up top. This is how you will be in contact with every owner to talk trades, schedule games, etc.
Forums: Forums will be also included which would also another way to communicate and be able to see the rules and other aspects of that.
Leaguedaddy: If your not familiar with leaguedaddy, it is a site where you put all the stats from the games you play and where everyone will be contained with standings, games you play, league leaders, and other stats. It will basically be our homepage of the website. If your not familiar with it, you can just go to (http://www.leaguedaddy.com/) Now it does cost money but no worries if I gain enough interest, I will buy a leaguedaddy subscription for the league.
Sample League: http://www.leaguedaddy.com/leagues/?lid=2960 This is league with similar aspects.
Now what would this league contain?
Owners: I am looking for about 16-24 owners, preferably 24 but I know it might be hard to achieve that amount so 16 would be just fine.
Schedule: About 30-35 games a season.
Rules: TBD. Once I see enough interest, I will write out the rules
Franchise Style: Being in many leagues before, this is the best style league where we will have a franchise style. Meaning if we continue after one season, there will be progression, a player draft etc. More information too come.
