    Excellent, we can now officially bring in a new team.

    It's a Christmas miracle
     
  3. Athlai JJD Heads

    What squad sizes should we look at? The same?
     
  4. Athlai JJD Heads

    You two need to just work on a name now IMO.
     
  5. Athlai JJD Heads

    I am thinking we keep squad sizes at 18 and we bring the total league to a total of 26 teams.

    Thoughts?

    That means we get at least 5 new teams and possibly more if some people do not want to carry on. Any more than that and I think we will see a real quality drop.

    If existing owners could also keep an eye out for anyone expressing interest in co-owning their team it would be appreciated too.

    personally don't like having so many teams. Feels it will really detract from the quality and if you get a star bowler in round 1 you will just run through teams mediocre batsmen

    I'd take Teacups on if he's got no other option. Ideally I'd like to run solo though.

    We will see no real drop in quality of batting lineups by extending it from 22-26.

    To keep up a Test quality standard of batting lineups we'd have to play a max of 12 teams, CPL as it is will always see domination by the worlds best players but the glory of it is picking the domestic triers and the no-hopers who all of a sudden become world-beaters in this.

    Effectively I have taken away around a maximum of 8-12 Test players by bringing in 4 new teams and I do not see that making any real difference. What I want more is having active people in this that will enjoy the sim.

    what are your thoughts on having a different kind of draft order for the first 3 rounds then to compensate those who dont get a chance at taking a top bowler in the first round?

    Interesting idea, it only really gives a disadvantage to 1-13 who will almost certainly pick up a much higher calbre of player than anyone else with their first round pick.

    Will probably put this to a vote nearer the date. Still open to any other ideas.
     
  12. El Nino J Torres

    El Fenix IMO
     
  13. Gazza GJ Weaver

    Yeah was gonna say that except I would of said El Phoenix

    Fenix looks better though

    squirts be coming back yo
     
  15. Teacups CJ Evans

    All good. Should be able to team up with someone I reckon. I think Marcuss is in this too so I might try to seduce him.

    Do people who were in CFD (or whatever it was called) get first dibs on teams :ninja:
     
  17. Jabba HJ Bots

    When is this looking to get underway?
     
  18. Hunter AD Hunt

    After New Years one would assume.
     
  19. Athlai JJD Heads

    Yeah the above. Giving some time for the confirmations of interest before I remove their teams from the next season.
     
  20. Jabba HJ Bots

    Nice, can't wait.
