Toodoped: Cheers and stay tuned for more free information.
Toodoped: Cant believe that some posters need to open three different threads so they can advertise their projects, and also talk to themselves with the help of different accounts. What is the world coming to?!

Toodoped: Anyone heard from @BigTuna? He is absent for quite some time...I hope is ok
Toodoped: Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
Toodoped: Thanks buddy! We should continue fighting against these lying paying sites and to protect everyone on this forum, especially the younger generation or posters.
Toodoped: these days lots of people that I know lost their families and everything they had because its legit and even youngsters can chip in
Toodoped: Same as the mob paying sites...ppl pay for "Disneyland" and wiki mob stuff, something which they can find it on their own with a simple google search
VanillaLimeCoke: Lousy school violence these days. Not even a 6th of the way through September and we've already had a psychotic violent school shooting.
Toodoped: Word. Few days ago, over here, they caught one teenager with a gun and more than 60 bullets, while going to school. I wonder what was his plan ?!

VanillaLimeCoke: I’m hoping and praying that 2025 will be so much better. …. for real …. Too
Giacomo_Vacari: Damn, he is posting the same things over and over, nothing new. Watch out the flu is bad this year. January 20th Trump gets sworn in, and hopefully turn things around.
VanillaLimeCoke: Yeah, but they’re already planning things so he can’t turn them around
VanillaLimeCoke: Biden’s pardened over 8000 people, most of which were issued in the last 2-3 months
hoodlum: Yes, most likely 2 piss off that crybaby & compulsive liar now sadly in office.

Anyone interested in joining me in this year's ESPN Baseball Challenge ? If there are a few, I would like to start a group we all could join together. I've been playing BBC since 1997 and it's great. All you gotta do is pick a player for each position, plus a pitching staff. You accumulate points if your chosen players do well. The first "season" ends at the All-Star Break, and then you start again. I'd like those who'd be willing to play throughout. There's nothing worse than people who sign up, then never play. It's free, by the way. You just have to create an account if you don't already have one. Please let me know if you're seriously interested, and please try to sign up as soon as you can. If a few of us do play, we'll decide on a group name.
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Interested people should signup at the link above and create their teams. I assume the game will start on Sunday, but you can start any time (the longer you wait, the less points you'll accumulate). After I get an idea of how many people we'll have, I'll start a new private or public group at ESPN for us...

Cake - You need to create your team as soon as you can, even before our group is started, if you want to accumulate as many points as you can There is one game tomorrow night, and I think you have until like 3AM ET (the night before) to do it in time. (Otherwise, tomorrow you can put your roster together for Monday, etc).
I don't need to know your entry name. When the time comes, I'll tell y'all the name of the group to join. Dassit.

Okay, I'll set up the room now so we know it's working, and can see who's joined successfully... First, go here . If you're already a registered ESPN user, log in. If not, click on "register for a free account" and follow the instructions. Then go back to the Baseball Challenge (BBC) home page and log in. If it's your first time logging in, it'll ask you to pick your roster. Do this, following the instructions, and keeping your budget at or below 50. When that's done, you're playing. To join the group, click on "Group Directory" -- you want the Private group called "GangsterBBC" -- the password is "puzoparty" ... Please, only people willing to actually play (novice or expert, doesn't matter) -- I don't want to fill the room up with non-players... Grazie, JG PS Where's LDV?!

Originally posted by Don Sicilia: I just joined the group. My team name is Douche Bigalow. I just set my lineup today JG- didn't get a chance to last night. Does that mean I don't get points for today? Don S - You may have missed Sunday's game lineup. You can tell if you click on Box Score "Today" what today's lineup is (dashes next to players aren't playing). Since there was only one game Sunday, for max points, you would've had to choose all Ana and Tex players. Now, Sunday, you'd pick your team for Monday. Once you have your "dream team", within budget, you can just leave it like that and not make any changes until the end of the game. That's the easy way, and there are many players I leave all season unless they get hurt. There's a caveat: Every Monday (probaby not tomorrow though), the players values change. If they did well the past week, their price goes up, and if they didn't poorly, it goes down. It can also stay the same. If you choose players every single day, after a week you'll likely lose money on the best players. I tend to pick a "great" player and leave him there until he gets hurt, even if he's not playing on a particular day. That way, you can keep him at the cheapest price. I'm not sure if I'm explaining this well enough, so read the "how to play" section there if you're not familiar w/ the game. Basically, you can spend as much or as little time as you want playing...

I TRIED rooting for the Mets, but they were pitifully poor in the first few years and in 1964 my brother's friend, Rico Petrocelli, was drafted by Boston. I've been a fan since.

In any case, good luck to you and everyone playing.

I'm in. What an ordeal. :rolleyes: Picking the friggin' team and getting under the cap took almost an hour! And I certainly could have used some more study time. I haven't even bought a baseball magazine yet.
Two Questions: How do you view the rosters that the other group members have selected? and If I have a player whose value goes up $200,000, let's say, I get to keep him automatically, even if that puts me over the cap, right? But suppose one guy goes up $200,000 and another goes down $200,000. Can I trade the one who lost value for a player worth $200,000 more?

But suppose one guy goes up $200,000 and another goes down $200,000. Can I trade the one who lost value for a player worth $200,000 more? Plawrence, I don't know the answer to your first question- I'll look at the league later and come back with an answer. As for the second one, you are correct that you get to keep him. By "buying" a player at certain price, you lock him at that price. Say you were right at $50 million and you have Sosa at $6 million. Even if he goes up to $8 million, you are still locked in at $6 even though, theoretically, your roster is value at $52. That's why it's imperative that you keep some players on your roster even though they are not playing on a particular day because you want them at those bargain values. On the other hand, say a players value goes down... For example, say you were at $50 million and Sosa at $6 million, but then his value goes down to $5 million. There should be a button there that says "Renegotiate" or something to that effect such that the value applied to you for Sosa is $5 million, meaning your roster is worth $49 million. That means you have $1 million wiggle room to upgrade in any of your roster spots. Well that's it. I hope that I made some sense!

Don S is absolutely right, that's how it works. PL - You can see another player's team for the current day (and previous days) only -- but apparently that hasn't been turned on yet. And I know what you mean, these starting prices are brutal this time - I got a lot of shit players cuz last year's superstars are so damn expensive! Starting on Day 1 is tough, too, cuz you really don't know who's good or not this year. Eventually values will migrate towards true values for 2003. Last year I got lucky - I had Soriano on my team from Day 1 cuz he was cheap. He ended up being one of the best rookies in the game!  Now, he's the most expensive 2B'er

DS - Sometimes, for some reason, they put players in the 'wrong' area - look under DH (even some NL players end up there!)
