thinking about starting one up, but wanted to gauge the interest before I tried. It'll run on STB since that's the only program i have, but I'm going to try and do things slightly different than SLOX and SLOR. Can't say what all right now, since I haven't thought all of it up yet. All players and teams will be fake, so NBA enthusiasts might not have much interest.
Probably only looking for GMs that are active with their teams AND with their posts. Nothing against GMs that check the boards everyday and turn everything in on time as they're great, but I'm mainly looking for GMs that actually post often on the boards.
Like I said, i'm going to attempt to make it different than the other leagues, stress on attempt, so if you don't like anything too different than the normal leagues than you might not like it.
If you have any interest post here as I don't want to go through the trouble of starting the league if no one's interested.
Also, for those that don't know me I'm sure you can find GMs that will vouch for my ability to run a league so you don't have to worry about me douching out. Also I'm likely not to take a team and just run the league so you don't have to worry about me beating you mercilessly either.

i don't even know what the league would be like, but if you're running it nate, and it's with fake players, i'm immediately interested. please keep us updated with your thoughts on it as i'm very intrigued.

it's pretty much open to any ideas any GMs of the league may have. Most leagues have to maintain some resemblance to the NBA and it's rules, but since this won't be NBA affiliated it's open game on any and everything

also i'm leaning toward either a snake or auction draft. it'll take more time, but I'd prefer teams to be on an open playing field from the get go so no one can complain they started with bad players or bad salaries.

not sure if you'd want to export league files or whatnot like in SLOC, but i'd be up for that too - though i'm sure that might cut down on the participation level quite a bit.
can you increase or decrease the amount of teams in a league in STB?

exporting the files might be too much of a hassle and create a disadvantage for GMs without the program. I don't think you can change the number of teams in the program, but we could always create some form of work around

i'm about to head out for the night, but if anyone's interested post here with your info and what you would want your team to be named. Doesn't matter if you include a city or not, but leave a full team name

i've had a long week so i may just grab a quick drink with a friend and then come back home to install STB and see if i get any ideas.
not sure if you have to have a city/town name with a team, but if so i'd like to make my team something with san diego. maybe with an ABA slant.

I'd be interested and we'd be from Detroit. I'll think of a team name and post it here a little later.

the name can be anything as long as it isn't offensive. You can use a city if you want. If you don't want to use a city or state you don't have to.
