DVL - LBLJ Merge Update

December 27, 2015 at 07:43PM View BBCode

Dear Friends in LBLJ -

Thanks to Vick for launching the merger convo. Admin Chris is helping us go through the necessary steps. He says:

"I need to go through the leagues, look for city duplicates, smooth over the rule differences, and then process the actual merge. Owners who are in duplicated cities will need to pick a new available city. If neither team volunteers to move, whichever owner has had his team longer gets to keep his city."

Here are the LBLJ owners that may need to change cities. Would you post here what city you'd like or if you'd like to negotiate with DVL owner for city rights.

KC
NYA
CIN
FLA
PHI

Here is link to DVL message board: http://www.simdynasty.com/oldforum-viewforum.jsp?fid=363

I have had the KC team here for 95 seasons. Suggestion: Why not have the teams with longest seniority choose whether to give up their city. I prefer to stay with KC.

It says whichever team has its team longer gets to keep the city

All I have time for right now is a quick glance but I see we have 5 AL teams in the DVL and 2 AL teams in the LBJL. I see one duplicate AL city which is KC so whoever is the longest tenured owner should be able to keep KC, the other one would choose a new AL city.

In the NL we have 9 active teams. Cincy, LA and Philly all are duplicates. The longest tenured owners would keep their teams, the other 3 would choose between 1 AL city and 2 NL cities to make 8 from each league.

Does that make sense?

I posted this over in the DVL as well, If anybody sees mistakes please yell.

If the Philly team in the DVL doesn't volunteer to change, I'll take any major east coast city not named New York. Or I'd take a Chicago team

I would prefer to keep Cincy, I do agree that the most tenured team should have the right to keep that squad.

Wow ! I just realized that KC from the DVL has 166 seasons under his belt. So much for my measly 93 seasons. I guess my next order of business is to pick a new team. What is available?

Other than pausing the league, it doesn't seem that admin has done a single thing to facilitate this merger.

Admin has said they are dedicating today (Sunday) to our merger. Lets hope so.
