At long last, the official simulations for the LBL are about to begin.
Brendan and I will be simulating the 1895 to 1899 season between 25 April and 3 July.
While the league file has already undergone extensive scrutiny and testing, Five seasons over two months will allow the Board time to develop and solidify simulation procedures, generate a statistical baseline for the league, and ensure all systems are ready for opening day. Think of it like a “Spring Training” for the LBL.
The full LBL Storyline will be in effect starting 25 April, and will include certain events worth paying attention to for prospective GMs. Look for articles and short stories to develop these events in the coming months.
The LBL Prologue will be tracked and reported both on Stats+ and the OOTP Historical League forums.
There’s still much to be done before opening day, but this is an exciting development for the LBL Team!
