I'm interested, depending on the cost level and time committment. Is the time committment similar to a DMB league?

Yes please.

And while I have this Interwebz-space, I'm interested in joining a keeper fantasy league, should anyone have need for a new owner.

Thanks,
Eric

My Strat league has been in continuous operation since 1982. Some would say 1981 but since '82 it is a permanent league. You only gain or lose players via trade or draft. I hold he record for most career manager losses. Such pride. 20 teams. We have survived tantrums, delays, 2 deaths, and a myriad of other problems but keep on going.

Like with DMB you can either manage the games yourself or autoplay the games with the computer manager. The cost (which will include the DLB account needed to play the games) should be around $100-$125 plus fees for transactions ($2 for call-ups, $5 for trades [negotiable as part of the trade], and money for LTC buyouts[when that's possible in a few years]). Depending on how much tinkering you do with your roster, transaction fees run from $25-$150 with most members around $50. As for time needed...preparation for the draft, about 8-10 hours on draft day and between 15 minutes to three hours a week depending on whether you play the games yourself or autoplay. Plus whatever time you spend discussing trades and taking, and dishing out, abuse from/to the other owners. :)

Just thought I'd chime in here to tell anyone who is interested in board game sims to check out the IBL Game. The game is free, cards are posted in PDF format. Some key features: park neutral cards, adjustment for quality of opponent, split regession, granular defensive ratings.
