That is an awesome idea actually, I think that most players that would be willing to join a league like that would be happy to abide by a few rules..

Hmmm, so maybe a min and max salary to keep things tighter, say 100k?? I guess for my league that would be between 250-350k.. Would even open the door for some of the DIII teams..

I really like that idea, thanks for sharing..

New question, any takers on this trial league? If I can get a couple of volunteers I will generate a short PL and see how it works, could be infectious..

I would like that idea as well but I know when we suggested it a while ago the strong teams said no because they wanted to be able to test their real team in PL games as an experiment for real games and they also felt that if they were paying the salaries for those guys they wanted to be able to use them in their PL games as well.

im 3 hours away from my final PL game (GF ./.. fingers crossed)...

so id be willing to participate, even though im Div III, my player salaries are $251k and next season may go up slightly again (although hopefully not too much). But they should be about that much give or take a few thousand.

u want me to post something in my league forum for some of the other guys there? They might be interested, zyler and ezy probably, they have pretty high salaries.

Fair enough mate, unfortunately you aren't going to be able to meet everyone's expectations so I am trying to come up with a happy medium..

The biggest problem with your suggestion is that a) teams can vary so much over a season (I dropped 5000 WR places in one season), and b) the ranking system is very broken. I'm not sure of how else we can do it, though :/

Hmm, not many people have greatly balanced teams though, I think most teams are stronger in either front or back court and then there is the other type of team, 4 plebs and a dominator (200+ salary). I like Coach Regans suggestion the best so far, low and high team salary.. Unless that is also what you are suggesting Zyler, I am reading your suggestion as a low/high cap per position..

u know in the fishbowl we always tried to get teams into the leagues they best fit cause there were 4 leagues best 2 worst

but like a few games into the season someone would always change their mind & sell their team & just play every game with 3 x 3k scrubs or decide to go for it & suddenly have a 250k big man

theyll say sorry it is what i have to do for"real" games & bad luck 4 the pl

I am hearing you mate, simple fact is there is no silver bullet. BUT..

Seeing as I am not in the fishbowl and want to have a PL to go in I would like to try and make it enjoyable, in no way am I trying to have any bearing on the fishbowl, I only use it as an example as it is a very cleverly set up and successful PL, I would be so lucky to attempt to get something that could satisfy a different selection of people..
