| 167.2 | I got a few guys picked already! | RAYBOK::DAMIANO | The mark of the beast | Fri Aug 17 1990 12:00 | 10 | 
|  |     I'm interested, sounds like fun! I've never played rotis. before, but
    I'm reasonably intelligent and should be able to figure it out! 8^)
    
    Question, though. By you're "rookie card price" rule, I don't think 
    it would be possible to field a decent team with $260.00, funny money
    or not. Or is the idea to pick prospects and cheaper guys?
    
    Anyhow, count me in. When do we start?

| 167.5 | Bad idea | SMAUG::OAKLEY | Where's The Rings of Speed? | Sat Aug 18 1990 13:50 | 4 | 
|  |      Bad idea....you should just draft the rookies....easier than picking
    them....and what if we don't have a priceguide?

| 167.9 | A few questions... | RAYBOK::DAMIANO | The mark of the beast | Mon Aug 20 1990 12:23 | 8 | 
|  |     That's good, because a third year Clark is a little cheaper than a
    rookie one. Also, can we mix leagues? And what about duplicate picks?
    can more than one person own the same player? Also, you're right, it's
    hard to bust through the price guide looking for rookie cards, takes
    quite a while!

| 167.10 | questions/suggestions | EUCLID::MACFARLANE |  | Mon Aug 20 1990 14:24 | 24 | 
|  |     	My suggestion would be to just use Topps regular issues.  It would
    make players easier to find (and verify, commissioner).  Plus, some
    players rookie year may have been when there were no Fleer, Donruss,
    etc.  And it would avoid the problem of one person using a different
    price for the same player.
    
    Questions on the rules......when you said 14 batters, you has "2 C".
    Is this a typo?  And what is "MI" and "CI"?
    
    One other suggestion......I am currently in a league very similar to
    this and out of the 14 players and 9 pitchers, the lowest scoring
    player in each category is dropped to account for injuries, demotions
    rehab...etc.  Then if you had a player go on the DL, it wouldn't kill
    your chances.
    
    Once we set a team, are you letting people change it.  Someone could
    say, Gee, I can drop dud player A and pick up stud player B and still
    stay under the salary cap.  Allowing this could make the commissioners
    life miserable.
    
    I do think it's a good idea to start this now, in time to iron out any
    bugs for next year.....if in fact we Do decide to try it next year.
