I don't like keepers anyway.

Whether or not to have keepers can be decided on, but the league is not expanding beyond 10 teams. That's final.

People are going to quit. There's no way to avoid that. The only solution is to have alternates ready to step in and take over the team. If all 14 people are already in, then there's nobody to give the dead team to, and it begins to rot at the bottom of the standings.

EDIT: If we switch to some sort of H2H format, maybe we could expand to 12 teams since teams tend to be more active down the stretch. But a format change like that would have to be agreed upon by the majority.

Shouldn't we agree on just 10 teams first?

Yes. I'm just putting that out there in case some people really want to expand it.

No, I mean is shouldn't we all have to agree that there should be just 10? You said no to more than 10 pretty definitively.

my biased opinion is that if there are only 10 teams then the people from last year get first dibs

I suppose if you want a vote, dish can set one up in this thread.

It's not like I'm trying to pull one over on you guys. Just last year we had like 5 people quit by July. Mac, Ace, cbass, PP27, and I think Prediction. We have a good amount of interest this year, so I think we should use that to our advantage to make sure that 100% of the teams are active.

I'll set up a poll. After that discussion, I think that Skits has a point. We need active teams, and this might help a bit.

my thoughts:

- keep at 10 teams. makes it easier + everyone won't stay the whole season. that's pretty much guaranteed
- yes to keepers
- switch to h2h? haaaaaaaaaaaail no

general consensus is that we keep it at 10 teams, now we have to determine who actually begins the season as part of the 10 man squad

like i said before ppl from last year should get first dibs

Agreed. There are six returning guys (dtigers, dish, phillies, agent, me, and you), so that leaves 4 spots for the other 7. Like last year, I'll send PM's to the returning members asking for their votes, and I'll tally up the results.

Well, Prediction hasn't voted yet, but it doesn't really matter, because the four spots have already been locked up. And they're going to jag, Brewers, LGM, and AoW
