We've got seven people who have been in every single tournament (chud, Skitch, phil, argo, numbers, kaius, and me) and I believe 2 others who have been in all but one (#BRL and TBAMTS). That's a pretty impressive retention rate.

Out of boredom, I have discovered I am apparently 115-107 over the course of the RM seasons (and 126-118 if you count postseason/tournament games).

Theoretically the next one would be the Live Ball Era (1920-1946). I worry that halfway through that draft though, we'll all just be scrambling to draft guys from baseball-reference who we'd never really head of before.

I feel like that will start towards the end of the 2nd round.

I wouldn't have a problem with going back to beginning and doing the current era again, but, I do like the idea of doing the live ball era and then having a super tournament where we use players from all of our teams.

I do want to do a Super Tournament. It's just a matter of whether or not you guys think three eras is enough. We could always do some kind of mashup. Like, we can have a five round draft of players from 1901-1946, and anyone you pick is eligible to be a part of your Super Team.

I think three eras is enough, but, can we really do this without having guys like Ruth?

I definitely want to do the post-strike era again with a real 54 game season instead of the tournament style we did.

I didn't mind doing the stats like this for the league. I think it makes it a lot more fun when we know who the leaders are.

However, if you're thinking "man, chud just did the stats for a few of the slacker teams, so why not I just get lazy next time and he'll pick up the slack for me!" you should know that I was pretty much at the threshhold for what I could handle. If any more teams got lazy, I probably wouldn't have had enough time to do this.

Also, thanks to kaius for never changing his lineup. It made copy pasting his stats very, very easy.
