Hello and welcome to AAA 2024.
Here is the list of managers assigned so far:
1. Uptown Bombers 2. Bean's Guardians 3. Species RIBC 2023 4. Jason's Awkward Squirrels 5. Who is ksoze? 6. Seattle Zen 7. C1 Presents A.L.L. Army (C1-NRB) 8. Norfolk Neptunes AAA (Matt G) 9. Taxman AAA 10. Fred's Fantastic Team (perm dude) 11. Crack Babies (El Fatador) 12. LarryF 13. 14. 15. 16.
*UNSURE* filthyrich *ONLY TO FILL A LEAGUE* JeffG AAA No response yet VampireWeekend
I think most favor Yahoo, so we'll be running Yahoo for this league. I am not a fan of adding burdens to the commish duties, so we are going to use Yahoo defaults for league setup. Therefore, Ohtani is going to be two players. Adjust fire accordingly.
We may get additional managers from the RIBC major league. So, we aren't ready for choosing our draft order until we know exactly how many managers we are going to have and who they are.
The first orders of business are to set a schedule of events, and to make sure we have everyone on board. You'll find a schedule in the next post. Following that, I'd like you all to sound off with "IN" or "OUT" to let me know that you are still planning to play, and that you plan to pay attention to this thread by visiting it daily through the preseason. Fall asleep during the season is frowned on, but its even more important that you stay engaged through the preseason. Your absence may prohibit us from finishing on time.
I have sent invites to the Yahoo League to everyone but LarryF, whose e-mail address I do not have. |

I'm rather overwhelmed until around Mar 8th so I won't be able to join.
If any lurkers are willing to draft but worried about whether they'd commit through the season, I'd be able to tag in as an in-season replacement if necessary.

You will receive an e-mail from draftordergenerator.com shortly. This will be the order we select our draft position in. You may not have gotten it if I mistyped your address, but that should be the only reason. As long as one person other than me got it, this order will stand. You used to be able to type team names in it, but now you will need this key to understand the results. There are 14 teams this year.
Team 1: Bean's Guardians Team 2: C1-NRB's A.L.L. Army Team 3: Crack Babies Team 4: Fred's First Class Team Team 5: Jason's Fascinating Team Team 6: JeffG AAA 2024 Team 7: Matthew's Choice Team Team 8: Philsphan's Peerless Team Team 9: Rotten Amoebas AAA Team 10: Seattle Zen RIBC Team 11: Species RIBC 2024 Team 12: Taxman AAA Team 13: Uptown Bombers Team 14: Who is Ksoze

I have started the draft. You can set queues now. You'll note that the player data base has just one Ohtani, the DH. If you want the pitcher, you'll have to add him when it is your turn. Same goes for any other player not in the data base. Can't queue added players.
There is a daily pause midnight to 8 AM ET, in which you can pick, but the clock is paused. There will be no clock until Monday at 8 AM ET. After that there is a 4 hour clock, and I hope to not have to reduce that time throughout the draft. Of course, that depends on how fast we are drafting.
If you are wondering, proper etiquette is to still do your best to keep your pick time to 4 hours or less, even while there is no clock on 3 MAR.
If you see any issues with the draft set up, let me know ASAP.

Thanks Jeff, not sure what happened there.
Fortunately, I got up early and fixed it, thanks to your e-mail I got it in time.
Taxman had two consecutive picks and was just about to time out for his 2nd. We should be good now.

I just checked out the League Settings
Max Games Played: No maximum
Not that I ever come close to hitting the max anyway, but I thought we capped the hitters to 162 innings per position. Last year the setting was
Max Games Played: 162

I simply copied the RIBC settings from last year when setting up the league. I think they were fixed about this same time last year too. Perhaps it just copied the original settings, and not the corrected settings.
Anyway, it's fixed. Thanks Jeff

Great job and congrats Zen.
Also nice going Bean.
It was a crazy last few weeks, i enjoyed watching your battle, and I'd like to think I was in the running as well even though i never cracked the top-2.
Glad all you guys convinced me to give it another go
See everyone in 2025

We only had 14 teams, so the total will be lower.
|
57 | Bean
ID: 12552510 Tue, Oct 01, 2024, 15:06

I think the math would be 10 pts higher on average.
|
58 | holt
ID: 31112962 Tue, Oct 01, 2024, 18:02
|
unless my math is wrong there should be 1360 points to go around in a 16 team league with 10 categories, and only 1050 in a 14 team leagues, so 1360 divided by 1050 times SZ's 100 would be 129.5 pts.
|
59 | Bean
ID: 12552510 Wed, Oct 02, 2024, 09:25
|
(1050 pts)/(14 teams) = 75 pts/team average (1360 pts)/(16 teams) = 85 pts/team average
However, it's more likely the teams at the top get a bigger share of these additional 310 points than the teams at the bottom. Proportional? I don't know. Ask some statistics guy like Guru.
|
60 | holt
ID: 31112962 Sun, Oct 06, 2024, 10:29
|
oh yeah that's right bean, 2 more teams to collect the extra 310 pts. (85/75)100 = 113. that would surely be the lowest winning total ever in ribc. maybe the larger free agent pool available to the league shrinks the bell curve and tightens up the standings. the activity level of the league is a factor too, so yeah you need someone like guru the actuary and a stack of data to come up with something. and dang, that was super tight standings, 100, 99, 94. ouch.

I think Standard Deviation could be a measure of overall league parity/competitiveness.
