I'd be interested in just running a team when you do a MLB league...

I know this might not be a popular idea, but if the changes in 12 are drastic, how about just rebooting the PBL?
I guess I just don't understand multi-ownership.

Sorry, it was a slight.
I just don't understand the need to create a new OOTP12 league, and fill it with PBL owners, when the PBL itself is going to be an OOTP12 MLB league. If that's whats going to happen... then why not just reboot the PBL with OOTP12 rosters?
I'll try not to be too outspoken against multi-ownership, since I'm sure I'm in the minority, and I don't want to piss off too many people.

I don't mind people playing in multiple leagues... I mind them playing in multiple MLB-based leagues with non-fictional rosters. That's all.
Its a matter of personal philosophical preference. I just don't think there is any argument that you can make saying that it's a good thing for any league. The PBL is the best league that I've ever been in, and I'd hate to lose GMs because they have other more successful ML clubs.
Sorry to hijack the thread like this. Guess I'm bored with the off-season lull.

I see where you are coming from Kenny. I'm so new to OOTP so its tough for me to say whether or not I would even want to play 2 leagues! I have tried a few but I only play in PBL and its obviously not due to my successful team rofl! I just thought if I were to play in two leagues I would want it to be filled with great owners like these ones! In my opinion if you leave a league because your team sucks you don't really like this game or a challenge! I love my team even though it sucks atm. I have a plan for it and if it doesn't work or if I get unlucky (have my next top 5 prospect take a header into the Ive at Wrigley) I'll step up to that challenge and try figure out how to fix it! In all honesty I am probably a one league guy just like you....I'm just to much of a noob to know it lol

I don't see the problem in having multiple leagues, I would never leave the PBL. I still have interest in a new OOTP12 MLB league purely for the fact I would like to manage another team. All sorts of different moves would be made. If you're not interested, you wouldn't have to join. The Nats just brought up the idea and the commish even said he would be interested. I see no harm, whatsoever.

I think the point is being missed here a little bit. I have no problem with Adam trying to get people to join his league and I see nothing wrong with multiple people from this league joining that one. I have interest in joining a MLB style league and here are the reasons why I would do it:
1) Personally, would be different to run a team and have no other responsibilities with it
2) The idea of playing these games is to compete and have fun. If I can compete in 2 leagues, then I am excited about it even though in the past I tried and I was not very good at it. Most of my focus kind of falls to one league
3) I would not take control of the Red Sox or possibly any other large market club. I'd want a team that needs to be rebuilt or even a young team with lots of potential so I'd have to manage it completely different
4) Competing with other GMs you already know is fun because you know their tendencies a bit you might have players they want this time around and things become fun
5) The time this league starts we may be 4-5 years into our league so you can start over a bit with players on their original clubs etc..
So many reasons to join another league but the two biggest reasons you should not are:
1) Time restraints. Got to make sure you can fairly put enough time in to give your best effort to both leagues or its not fair to commissioner and other owners.
2) Expecting to join another PBL as we all know there can only be one league at the top of the OOTP online league world and that's right here in the PBL ;D
