The Biggest Loser in ATG9 is…

PostSat Dec 04, 2021 8:31 pm

Who is the biggest loser in ATG9? It might be YOU!

I’m starting a sign-up page here to gauge interest in traveling to The Upside Down. I’ve emailed Strat 365 for prior approval and I propose the following ATG9 theme league:

The Upside Down

Teams will compete to have the worst record possible. Strat365 has agreed to reset the playoff teams to reflect the teams with the worst record (unfortunately, the Commishioner gadget won’t allow much of this). The worst teams will compete in the semifinals and the losing teams will advance to the finals. The loser of the Finals will get two credits, with the runner-up garnering one as well.

To make this work, Strat365 has agreed the statistics from this league will not be documented. You will not torpedo your personal winning percentage by participating. Furthermore, no one will be incentivized to run a “winning” team out against you for personal reasons. This is the resurrection of a concept started in 200x, I think, about 15 years ago, which was sabotaged by the infamous “Nicole” persona who drafted a traditional team with the hope of going 162-0. If I remember correctly, she hilariously lost two games anyway! :lol:

I don’t know if it’s just me who thinks this is interesting, so I’m throwing this sign-up out there to see if anyone else thinks this might be fun. I’d love to do a 24 team league, but I don’t want to get out over the skis. 11 other managers will be just fine, too. I’m starting a 200x league as well, so you can play there if you prefer.

So, if you think you really suck at ATG9, here’s your chance to prove it.

Alright, we have a little bit of traffic going, so I created the league with the public option. Just enter your team when you’re ready and we’ll see how it goes. You can sign in here if want to, but no need to - just join up when you’re ready.

I simply mirrored the same set-up as the league I opened on the 200x side. $45 mil, no dh. A lower cap would have probably been better, but I have absolutely no idea how any of this will turn out, so I’m winging it a bit here.

Hope to have 11 others join in as soon as you can. :ugeek:

Thx!

This one has moved along way better than on the 200x side.

Only four spots left.
