I awarded one point for each choice that you gave in your responses to the survey I sent out last Monday. The vote breakdown was as follows:
- ATG 9 - 8 votes
'70s - 3
Single-season pre-2000 - 2
Single-season post-2000 - 2
ATG 8 - 2
'80s - 1
You might as well begin to get familiar with the players in ATG 9: https://365.strat-o-matic.com/playerset/browse/291. Note that you can download the set as a spreadsheet. Note also that many players in ATG 8 (including some favorites!) have different salaries in 9, and that there are many new players, most from 2000 to now. The spreadsheet indicates the new players in ATG 9.
There was also majority support for a keeper's league format, whereby each team would be allowed to retain next season a certain number of players that were on their roster at the end of this season. Details on the keepers format will follow, but do not expect the number of keepers to be the same as in LARL Roto League. (I'm still trying to figure out how to accommodate keepers within the SOM game structure.)
The majority of you also indicated that you would be open to expanding the prize pool and issuing prize payouts to more than just the overall champion, as we are doing this season. However, some of you indicated you would not like to see a prize pool as big as LARL Roto.
We will issue payouts in the next season as follows: World Champion (60%), Runner-Up (20%), and the 2 other post-season teams (10% each). Each team's contribution to the prize pool to be announced, but please anticipate that it will be more than the $20 most teams laid out for this season.
