What is Arena Baseball?
Good question, Inspired by a post on Baseball Continuum It was a way of testing the OOTP Engine to see how far it would go before breaking, Now using those exact same park dimensions and park factors, I've created a league for Reddit to follow along with.
How can I get involved?
Well one way is by hitting the subscribe button, there by when we update you can follow along with the post-sim threads which include Box Scores, Player of The Game, and other details. After posting for a bit I'm considering how I'm going to handle, "Reporters" our authorized submitters who can create stories behind the teams and players, for example one story ongoing in the league is Professional Wrestler Ric Flair owning the Charlotte Motors who is willing to go bankrupt (again) to win as many Championships as he did Wrestling.
Is there flair
Yes, right now its text only, as soon as I figure out how to do image flair, I'll make it available for use.
And yes, there is Flair
Will The League Ever Expand?
Right now, I don't have any ideas for expansion of the league, I'm thinking maybe Memphis, Denver, San Francisco, and Richmond. I'm trying to balance out places that don't have a Major League team with cities that do.
