Application from Beau Carsten - New Applicant

Post by Anonymous » Mon Jul 23, 2018 12:05 pm

A user, Beau Carsten, has applied with the following information using the application form.
Real name: Beau Carsten
IP: 66.211.123.95
Email: beaucars10@gmail.com
Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
I feel I'd be an active, competitive member of your league. I've played OOTP since 13 and have experience in online leagues. Currently, I participate in one online league (The 108) where I have the fourth highest winning percentage of all GMs (.580) and will be making my 7th postseason appearance in 8 seasons (1 championship).

Other than the competitive aspect, I just have a great appreciation for the lengthy, forum based, fictional league you've created. I respect the amount of detail and history you've created within this community and would love to take part in it.
First/Last Name: Beau Carsten
City/State/Country: Tupelo/MS/USA
Email Address: beaucars10@gmail.com
Desired Forum Username: Beau
Date of Birth (MM/DD/YY) for in-game purposes: 11/22/87
Occupation: Teacher/Coach
Other OOTP Leagues (with links): The 108 (www.108league.com)
Have you read the BBA Constitution and agree to abide by its rules?: Yes
Do you own the current version of OOTP, and plan to buy all future versions?: Yes
Do you understand the Participation Point System, and agree to be a regular contributor to our community?: Yes
What interests you about the BBA?: I greatly appreciate the forum-driven, long lasting community you've created with the BBA. I feel this league would be a lot of fun to participate in and greatly fits my interest in an OOTP league.
Describe your GM style: Focused. I try to set short-term/long-term plans for my team and make moves which fit the specific objectives. I don't make deals just to make them or because I'm bored. Team style depends on my roster, my park, where I can find quality value, etc.
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): Nope
Tell us more about yourself: I'm a baseball junkie. I grew up playing, played in high school, and then was a student assistant my freshman/sophomore years of college. I now teach Special Education and coach varsity baseball (assistant high school and head middle school). I'm a big Cardinals fan and slight Twins fan (played high school ball with Brian Dozier). I love the game and playing OOTP.

Don't let this guy in. He appears to be too good and he's a Cardinals fan...

On a serious note, welcome to the forums and I look forward to your arrival(as long as it's not in my division.)
