PLEASE NOTE: ADVERTISING A LEAGUE/COMPETITION/WEB SITE/FORUM IS NO LONGER PERMITTED ANYWHERE ON THE BLUE LINE.

Probably because Stinson is waiting to make sure there are not 10 more guys who sign up last second with more posts than you. Don't you worry you will get in and be able to pick Spezza, Alfredsson, Carkner, Jody Hull, Norm Maciver and Brad Marsh. All is good.

He won't get Spezza. Archie/B72 kept him. He'll have to pick Yashin or Alexandre Daigle instead

Sweet deal. :thup:

Invite sent to the email in your profile. Let me know if you didn't receive it, and I'll send you a new one.

Also note, you'll be "second" owner of my team. ESPN requires I occupy a team as the commissioner, so to get around that, we simply use the second-owner feature. But don't worry, I'm staying completely away from the team, and it's all yours to play with and make your own. So feel free to change the name, add your own logo, or whatever you want. :thup:

Thanks. I got the invite and joined the league. Can't wait for it to get going.

Just a minor announcement:

Registration is unofficially closed. With the addition of Justintinov, we have an excellently balanced league of 8 teams. ESPN doesn't allow there to be an odd number of teams with our head-to-head scoring format, so unless we get an even number of new applications (2, 4, or 6) in the next couple of days, I'll be keeping the OHL at 8 teams. After Sunday October 3rd, we won't be able to expand at all, and all applications will be added to the waiting list for potential call-up to replace any inactive GMs.

Registration is now officially closed. Any sign-ups after this point will be added to the waiting list.

Octavian, you don't know me and I don't really know you but, the weirdest thing happened just now. I saw you in the forums first time today, you know the post of yours above, but of course I have heard your name floating around before like the last site update about server movement (its awesome you're still supporting this). But after half an hour I stumbled on this site and guess what name caught my eye in the "I love sports management games" facebook box. Octavian from Belgium loving sport manager games. Weird coincidence huh. :dunno:
