I agree, and being that I am already heavily invested in the OTHER complex league known as the GUBA, I should have taken a lesson from you that being in both leagues is a chore that sometimes doesn't work out. Unless you're Cliche, of course. That being said, I'm not quitting here yet, but the move to 16 and its associated bonus challenges has made this all the more frustrating.recte44 wrote:PS- the EBA Draft went on for two whole days, and possibility of submitting a list was there. We've been doing it for almost ten seasons, it shouldn't be a surprise to those who know the rules of the league. That being said, this is a very complex league and that's not for everyone.

It's hard to count the single season I was here running the Tropics when you first rebooted as actually being here first, though technically I guess it's correct. I am some 4200 posts ahead of my count here in the other place.
But enough about all that. Moving ahead...

Re: 2020-2021 Rule 6 EBA Rights Draft
It is challenging. Heck I used to play in tons of leagues at once, but instead of playing in a dozen (or more) export and forget leagues, I switched to a couple of heavy-involvement leagues.
I find the time moving to new versions to be the toughest.
I would point out that I've only made the playoffs twice over here in the decade I've been back, so it could've worked out better so far

I went all the way to the LMS my first season back (2010) and have only made the playoffs once since. I guess I need to leave and come back again.
