Application from Anthony Kates - New Applicant

Post by Anonymous » Sat Apr 10, 2021 12:32 am

A user, Anthony Kates, has applied with the following information using the application form.
Real name: Anthony Kates
IP: 2600:1005:b103:3ec6:b0e4:3cab:2b90:c8f
Email: anicolausk@yahoo.com
Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
I'm newish to online leagues, but not new to OOTP. I've been playing some version of OOTP since I was a little kid in the early 90's (back then I used the yearly Topps Baseball Card Set book to draft teams and managed my own stats and series in spiral notebooks). Baseball is and always will be my first love. I played in one other online league back in 2019, but that was as a fictional player, not as a GM.
First/Last Name: Anthony Kates
City/State/Country: Enterprise, AL, USA
Email Address: anicolausk@yahoo.com
OOTP Forums Username: Tretdmarq
Desired Forum Username: Treydmarq
Date of Birth (MM/DD/YY) for in-game purposes: 05/01/1985
Occupation: Security Guard on a Military Installation
Other OOTP Leagues (with links): None
Have you read the BBA Constitution and agree to abide by its rules?: Yes and Yes
Do you own the current version of OOTP, and plan to buy all future versions?: Yes and Yes
Do you understand the Participation Point System, and agree to be a regular contributor to our community?: Yes and Yes
What interests you about the BBA?: I am interested in the creative writing/creative media aspect of the league. We had to write articles, do "fake" interviews and create our own media in the league I was in previously and I probably enjoyed that more than creating my own player. I also appreciate how thorough the league looks, with it's passionate, active GM's, deep league history and creativeness having a European league as well.
Describe your GM style: I love to trade, trade, trade and tinker with my lineup/organization. I will talk trades all day long, even if I get none done, just in case I can land exactly the player I am looking for. I also prefer power pitchers, 30/30 OF and infielders with tremendous defensive acumen.
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): I have not, they I have moonlighted as Tom Cruise from time to time.
Tell us more about yourself: I am a born and bred Texan who was transplanted into Alabama after I left the US Army. I am a twice deployed veteran who loves video games, live sports, playing sports, reading, writing, watching movies and spending time with my family (<<<#1 thing for me). I am married, have 2 sons and am an Astros, Mavericks, Titans, Manchester City/Charlotte FC, Texas Longhorns fanboy.
How did you hear about the BBA?: I was googling for info on online OOTP leagues and where best to locate them and this was one of the first leagues to appear.

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.
