Outshined Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 caucasian is that you? I would be surprised if people sign up for your league when you joined this message board yesterday and nobody knows who the heck you are or the other 25 teams. As far as we know, you and your brother might own them all. You might be an honest person, but no way will I be sending you any money! Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vet Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) God, that sounds like an awful lot of work...32 teams, dynasty with IDPs. It seems destined to fail, IMO. It's going to be tough to find 32 people (strangers, nonetheless) willing to spend that much time and dedicated enough to come back and do it year after year after year (which is obviously what you need for a dynasty league - dynasty leagues with high owner turnover simply suck because you can never truly plan for the future if you don't know who's going to be in the league from year to year - or even if the league is going to be there at all.) Good luck with that one! Edit: You might want to collect several year's worth of league dues from each team up front so that everyone has a vested interest in keeping the league going.

So, After almost 20 years playing FF I've learned a few things. Leagues fail for two reasons. A lousy commish or teams that are not competitive.There is a third reason and that is cheating, but that's a reflection on the commish. Face to Face leagues have a much longer life span so having an internet league that last is a challenge. If you would have read the fee policy for the league before making your comment you would have seen the first two season are paid up front. I'm amazed at this. I have this league advertised on two other message boards with 3 and 4 times the amount of views, yet this is the only place that is trying to either imply it's a fraud or it's destined to fail. What gives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
