Application from Kurt Imber - New Applicant

Post by Anonymous » Fri May 06, 2022 10:25 pm

A user, Kurt, has applied with the following information using the application form.
Real name: Kurt Imber
IP: 204.116.131.34
Email: imberkm@miamioh.edu
Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
I've been playing OOTP reguarly for a couple of years (I also played a bit in college 10 years ago, including one online league). It got too easy on regular difficulty. I averaged ~100 wins per season with the White Sox well into the 2030s even after slowly increasing difficulty to nearly the max setting. Having such a dominant org lead me to start a new game and I'm currently a few years into a Reds save where I've been going ~.500 with the trading difficulty turned up to the max settting.

I'm a responsible person who will be dedicated to keeping up with my team (out of pride and competitiveness). I'm an active member on a Reds message board so I'm comfortable with the forum layout and writing on a consistent basis.
First/Last Name: Kurt
City/State/Country: Chicago, IL USA
Email Address: imberkm@miamioh.edu
OOTP Forums Username: N/A
Desired Forum Username: BaseClogger
Date of Birth (MM/DD/YY) for in-game purposes: 01/07/64
Occupation: Accountant
Other OOTP Leagues (with links): don't have any links
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?: I have OOTP 22, I'll buy OOTP 23 for the league
Do you understand the Participation Point System, and agree to be a regular contributor to our community?: Yes
What interests you about the BBA?: Tough competition, high community engagement
Describe your GM style: I greatly increase my budget for scouting and development. I like to extend my own position players when possible and emphasize a strong bullpen full of high stuff. I generally cycle thru bargain veteran SPs in my rotation.
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): Al Ott
Tell us more about yourself: I live with my wife and baby daughter in Chicago. I was born in Northern Kentucky and raised a Reds fan by my parents, although I spent most of my childhood in metro Detroit.
How did you hear about the BBA?: a league member posted a thread on RedsZone.com

Well, this is cool…another Reds fan, and a Redszoner… And I might have even snagged a few participation points for recruiting you😁 (or maybe not… I forget how that works).

Welcome aboard Kurt!
