Hi everyone
The french is back
I can't wait for the new season to begin (it will be too late at night for me to witness it live, but I'll come back tomorrow)... And I can't wait to challenge some good and communicative competitors. Because for my first season here, as much as I enjoyed the game, I had a real blast yes, I had joined the first league I found, and I found myself stuck with competitors that didn't pay much attention to the game, never communicated once like I did on the league board (not one of them !), and never changed their slate when films were postponed to later months.
I had the feeling of playing on my own, so for the summer season, I want to play in a league with competitors worthy being fantasy moguls !!!
Whoever throws such a league, give me a sign !!!

Welcome back Chiefantome,
As you've probably read, a few of us regulars are looking to lock antlers in a summer league when the new system comes online.
Like you, I won't be up either so I hope we can all co-ordinate over the next day or so to get our league up and running.
So will we count you in? Should be fun!
If we have too many for one league we may have to look at running two. Let's see how it pans out.

A league split seems like the best idea.
Whenever one is set up, feel free to email me on numbersix_99@yahoo.com (to the hackers of the world... yes, you COULD hack my email, but do you really want to do all that work just to see my overpriced internet bill details?).
Goodnight, folks.

Yes, I'd love to join of you schmoes considering the league I'm in now makes me feel like a genius...and I'm not. Consider this my official acceptance if the offer is available.
As for Andthewinneris comment, I do not think the OVER/UNDER game should have any bearing on Fantasy Moguls. You're essentially guessing the movies b.o. already when you obtain it, so why give more points for the same thing? Top 5 is related to box-office somewhat, but the difference here is staying power. For example, a movie might have a big opening, but because of the movies opening the following weeks, it might not have the staying power. That's something else to consider. WILD HOGS had a pick opening, but it stayed in the Top 5 for the longest time (and in the top 10 for longer). I like this category, it makes things interesting.
And if you look, there's 2 categories that are devoted to mainly box-office draw movies (box-office & top 5), while the other 2 categories are devoted to smaller/quality films (PTA & IMDb.com score). The challenge is to have a balance of all or total domination of a few. We'll see how the new game looks, but I'd be disappointed in seeing OVER/UNDER incorporated into Fanatasy Moguls.

Hey guys,
I'd love to play the summer season with you. It's funny we haven't done it before actually *lol*!
Count me in for sure, and thanks for thinking of me.
Too bad Chugsthemonkey still isn't around -- I miss reading his/her posts.

hey, guys--
no problem setting up an uber league...the draft and depth of movie pool dictated league size in the last version of the game, but now that we've moved to a salary cap game you can set up much larger leagues (eg, more participants).
I would also, however, ask if folks in this group would *also* help set up and join other leagues in addition to this one so we can help the newbies along.

I can set up this previously-discussed league if nobody else has or will; I'd just need the email addresses of all the participants. If it's someone else's undertaking, my invitation can be sent to dranscht@hotmail.com. Seems like we'd have almost everyone that was originally proposed!

I would gladly do this; just let me know.

Guys,
Join the league, THE BIG LEAGUES for all those experienced as noted above. You can join more than one league, so if you want, join another league to help some people out and boost your confidence after I show how to really play this game!

Hey, Question.
i'm trying to set up a private league. It's not letting me email out invitations. I'm assuming this is going to be fixed, i hope...
It's not just me, right...???

Yeah, having the same problem. Also, I have created my studio as well as a private league but I am not in my own league I created. Hope to see this resolved soon.
EDIT: Fixed
