0 Subject: Gurupie challenge league!

Posted by: Eat Acid
- [224241620] Wed, Jul 05, 23:50

Bring it! I'll organize this if there is enough interest in having an all gurupie league. The commish alluded earlier that leagues could be formed by friends, and that those people could have teams they wanted. I am the Tribe, and I have a feeling the Yankees will be spoken for by a friend, but other than that post the login name and the team you want and I'll line em up. First come, first served, when we get 16 I'll e-mail the commish. All are welcome if you already have a team or at least understand the game.

OK, a summary of where we are at:

Eat Acid, Indians, yes email
Sliced Bread, Braves, yes email
Timing, Dodgers, yes email
Wammie, Cubs, need email
Kyle, Orioles, yes email
WiddleAvi, Rangers, yes email
MattG, Royals, yes email
Stick, Red Sox, yes email
MR MET, Mariners, yes email

All of the above have given their login in this thread and have been accounted for. Now for the newbies:
FlyinChip, Giants, yes email
FB, Astros, yes email
Psycho Joe, Mets, yes email
Taxman, White Sox, yes email
Chaik, Padres, yes email
yankeesRule, Yankees(couldn't get ahold of darkside), yes email
Milo Hamilton, the last team left, need email.

I'm going over to GSB to email the commish now, thanks for the good response. If the few that need to get me their email addy could do so quickly then I will post the instructions for when we can start putting teams in. Also if someone could figure out who Milo's team is, its in the NL.

I still can't e-mail you, maybe the problem is on my end, I'm not sure. I'll try and send you something from the library, I'm going to go get some Ayn Rand.

Alright, we have our 16 and I'm about to email the commish now with our particulars. He said it would be no problem to set up our league, and just asked us to send him the logins and e-mail addys like Jaysuede said. When you get your confirmation e-mail make sure that you say that you want to be switched to the gurupie challenge league and tell him the team you have selected as well, if we do that then everything will go smoothly.

Thank you for setting this up for us, I'm going to tell the guys on the boards that they can sign up their teams now. In their reply E-mail they will tell you what team they are in the rotoguru league and ask to be moved. Also, Jaysuede mentioned that you could level all the teams, if so we would like that. Thank you very much for this league, it should be alot of fun.

I just posted this, please enter your teams after 5 PM tonight and follow the instructions. This will ensure everyone gets where they need to go. Thanks guys.

kyle sign in under da_bomb3 and email the commish
with your team (Orioles), screen name( da_bomb3) and your email. tell him you want to join the gurupie challenge league instead of the current team that you had. i think that is it

Yep, you got it Yankeesrule. I just thought we should wait to sign up, but as long as they figure out how to put us in the same league, everything should be ok.

      Fri, Jul 07, 13:36
I am a bit confused.....I should log on under the team I have already (Not the groupie one) and send an E-mail while I'm logged in and give all the info to the Commish ?? Once that is done will the Commish E-mail us passwords to use ??

You have to send an email from your outside address to the Commish, requesting to activate your team (if it isn't already) and also to request that you be moved to the gurupie challeng league as Team X.

So I am not taking on a new team....I will have the same team I currently Have and it will be moved to the new league ?? I sent an E-mail already to the commish from inside GSB...will it work ??

      Fri, Jul 07, 13:48
You can only have one team per logon, so if you are using the same logon then yes, your new team will be one in the gurupie challenge league, completely different then your current team. I don't know if mailing the Commish from inside the game will work in changing teams.

Everyone needs to sign up with a new team. Then in your confirmation e-mail, tell them you want to be switched to the gurupie challenge league.

Just wondering .....Once the division is filled with all the right teams will the commish divide up players equally ?? cause the new team I got has a high payroll and horrible team !!! Also we will be starting a new season from start, right ??

I hope everyone will get a new, level version of the teams that they chose. That was my goal. Keep me posted with further developments.

I just got switched over to the league. I see a bunch of others have been switched too. It says the games start on 7/11. Only a few days away. Are these gonna be the teams we keep? Or can I expect the players to be divided up randomly?

I got switched over too (one of my exisiting teams). My new team looks pretty weak but that means low salary, woohoo. My farm system looks decent, but not great. Looks like I got my work cut out for me.

I still have not been moved. So what has been happening is that they have been moving existing teams over? Not cool, not cool at all. I hope they run the team leveler as we requested.
