Okay, the rules/procedures;
I'm running this:
All comments are welcome, even if they are wrong
Anyone can act as manager/GM of a team during the second round, and any subsequent rounds. Hell, I'll even let you pick a team in the first round if you think you can make it through. This means that you pick the starters and line-up before each game, and can choose substitutions. Details of how this will work to follow.
We will, as a sign of the apocalypse, use the Designated Hitter. Sadly, it only makes sense as 47 of the 51 teams used it. If two of the pre-DH teams play each other, it will be without the DH. As is only right and pure in this world.
This will be a 51-team bracket, as they Royals have completed 51 seasons.
There will be 13 teams selected to have a 1st round bye. I will choose them.
The other teams will be assigned to the brackets, top down, by a random number generator.
The teams given a first round bye will be assigned to a bracket by a random number generator.
There will be no rankings.
There will be no adjusting the brackets later.
Each set of teams will play a 9-game series.
3 home, 4 away, 2 home.
The team with the better record will be the home team.
The roster used will be the end-of-season roster for that year, which would have been the playoff roster, if they had/did make it. It will be a 25-man roster, and there will be a 40-man roster for injuries.
I haven't quite figured out all of the details yet, but if I am able, the visiting team will have Municipal Stadium as their home stadium.
Injures will be enabled.
Any team not having a human manager will utilize the computer manager, so you are managing against the AI, not me. This way you have a chance.
I will try to do one series every day, and probably more on the weekends, up to the point where the bars are open again. Then we'll see.
After every series, I will post the results, the statistics, an updated bracket, and depending on time, a summary or re-cap.
That's all for now.
