I think it depends on the point of the MVPs - is it to give out an award, or to stimulate discussion on the games etc. In my view, the point of them atm should be the latter, in which case I'd prefer more detailed writeups on fewer games, rather than more games but no detail.

I should add, that dependant on the format we go with MVPs, I'm willing to help out, though I would rather do the writeups for a league I'm not in (I enjoy reading what other people write about my own players, which I lose if I do the writeups for my own league!)

Didn't mean to say you were selfish. I'm just saying it's a selfish mentality. After saying the PL needs a change to have that opinion would just be counter-productive.

i think in the past we had 2 many games which we wanted done in 2 much detail & is was being done by 2 few people making it work not fun

people that have done mvps & i assume would do it again
yoda
mllama
tremell
whitebeard
bainsy
matty
skyhook
leeroy
ezyfrag
naker
robhoe
me

if we all agreed 2 do it on some sort of roster that is 5-6 peeps per league which means most people would only have 2 do it 2 times for an entire seaon

id certainly be happy 2 do it 2 times a season

yeah, good call Big Fish. Twice a season is very managable. I'd be happy with the roster idea.

Great discussion everyone. I admit a lot of these problems are my fault but I did announce that I would be snowed under with school work this season and had to cut down my responsibilities. Still it is awesome to see so many great ideas going about. A couple of things seem fixed. Two equal leagues of 12 teams each. With just 24 teams in total I think shrinking to three Federations is a logical consequence, does anyone object?

I also don't think anyone would object to the Calamari and Sharks continuing (although the Sharks will need to create a new Federation as no-one has admin rights for the old one apparently).

Mllama are you happy to be the boss of the new proposed Platypi?

i see ur points about change being needed.. but i still think unless you change the attitudes of the people in the leagues, mixing up the calamari guys is not the solution...

So if the Sharks and Calamari stay the same, the last fed will just be the leftovers correct? Assuming that no one on the inactive list is a Shark or Calamari they'll still have to cut people from their federation due to the PL being reduced to 24 managers. Hence why I am suggesting a re-draft compiled of 3 feds 3 captains with 2 protected picks. This means the Sharks and Calamari don't have to forcibly cut managers from their team.

I think this is probably the fairest way to distribute managers throughout the federations, we won't be left with a super team like in the NBA (coughLAKERScough).

Well I hope most if not all the Calamari can remain we really have eight guys right now we are very happy with, likewise the core of active Sharks including Koop, JW, Akuma, bainsynator88 and you seems good. What we need to do is add together the active members of Kevin and the Oil Tankers and create a new Miami-like instant superteam. It is time for mllama to take his talents to South Beach.

I'm happy to take charge if it means I get to boss people around

Hmm, lets see, Kevin had 4 ABBL teams this season. And the Oil Tankers had 4. And its 8 teams per federation*

Perhaps a redraft is best? ;)

* Note, before all the D2/3/4 Kevin and Oil Tankers get worried, I'm not suggesting I would actually take all the ABBL teams
