HELP Needed!

I'm looking for some 'caretaker owners' for a few teams in League of Legends and Victory Football League. Both Leagues are in the playoff stages with end of season round the corner. I'd like someone with game knowledge (ie everyone in this League) to check in with a team and make sure contracts/rosters are all in order to prevent AI making a pigs ear of contract renegotiations leaving a team crippled for several seasons after.

If anyone wants to take one of the teams, you're more than welcome. Legends is about to go into season 8 and plays super tough with lots of long-standing ownerships and rivalries. Victory is about to finish it's second season which of course means there may be lots of players with contracts about to expire if the previous owner hasn't done their due diligence in extending contracts.

Victory uses the BETA engine which plays very differently to 0.4.5 but gives you a glimpse into the future putting you ahead of the game for the release of 0.4.6. It also allows you to have a say in game development. Currently jdb is working on QB play, improving OL play and improving deep passing routes - it's fun to see QB's scrambling around, Sacks are way too high at the moment and the passing game is struggling but each gameweek is exciting as you get to see small adjustments.

Punt block exploit is gone and speed is less of a factor (still key but strength and technique are seeing increased need) This is doing a lot to limit teams stacking up on WR and CB and playing OOP.

TEAMS AVAILABLE

LEGENDS

Tiger Bay Sabretooths

https://lol.myfootballnow.com/team/19

In serious cap trouble, which may be alleviated somewhat by extending contracts. Three first round picks next season and two the year after. A total of 22 draft picks in the next two seasons, This means some of the ageing driftwood on fat contracts can be ditched

Bavarian Barbarians

https://lol.myfootballnow.com/team/23

Cap situation is better and the team has all it's picks in place for the next three seasons. A couple of old boys on huge contracts need clearing out to put the team in a good spot for free agency.

The Nile Crocodiles

https://lol.myfootballnow.com/team/30

The Cap situation is tight with eight or nine players about to go out of contract. They have 10 draft picks coming up including 2 first rounders.

Mumbai Jumbos

https://lol.myfootballnow.com/team/26

Probably in the weakest position of the four. Contract renegotiations may ease the burden, otherwise they'll need an active free agency targetting the bargain basement. Have their draft picks and an extra 7th rounder the following season.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VICTORY

Calgary Cutters

https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/3

No Cap issues, three players who are about to go out of contract. All draft picks in place, went 6-10 in year one and 6-7-3 in year two.

London Underground

https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/8

No Cap issues, no-one about to go out of contract, all draft picks in place. Year one went 5-11, year two 6-10

Queensland Jacks

https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/23

24 players with contracts expiring, Only 5 draft picks upcoming (no 2nd or 3rd) and no first rounder the following year. Also have no second pick in three seasons. Went 1-15 and then 4-12.

FRANCHISE FOOTBALL

Just played GW2 of Season 4. We have 5 vacancies. The League has switched to the BETA engine for this season so plays differently to the other Roster Only Leagues.

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN PRIZEFIGHTERS

https://ff.myfootballnow.com/team/2

I have just booted the last owner of the team for not having a QB on the roster! Consequently they are 0-2 for the season

MONTE-CARLO SLIPSTREAMERS

https://ff.myfootballnow.com/team/7

Reigning division Champ, started 2-0

WUHAN KLAN

https://ff.myfootballnow.com/team/16

Started 2-0 after three losing seasons.

MELBOURNE CRICKETS

https://ff.myfootballnow.com/team/26

Started 1-1

WELLINGTON BOMBERS

https://ff.myfootballnow.com/team/25

Started 1-1

You can also play the BETA software version of the game in League of Legends and Victory Football League. Both are well established Leagues where ownership is generally 30+.

I would also say that it's much tougher than MFN-1 as the majority of owners are very, very good players. I have some extra side rules in Legends to stop players stocking up on the fastest players, but so far have not introduced the restrictions to Victory.

https://lol.myfootballnow.com/

Currently at week 12 in season 9 - 3 teams available

https://victory.myfootballnow.com/

Currently at week 9 in season 4 - again 3 teams available


My third League is the Roster Only version of the game (Franchise Football) and also runs the newest software.

Currently at week 1 in season 6 with 4 teams available

Five available teams for the brand new season. Free Agency one has been pushed back until Monday to allow me to recruit new owners for the following franchises.

Over the weekend I will post 'cheat sheets' for the free agent pool and the upcoming draft class.

ACAPULCO LOCOS
https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/1

BERLIN BLITZ
https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/14

FREEDOM MONARX OF SAXONY DRESDEN:

This team will be moving locations in the Off season and becoming the Dusseldorf Juggernauts
https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/16

BRUNEI BROWNS
https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/17

BERMUDA TRIANGLES
https://victory.myfootballnow.com/team/32


The League is entering it's eighth full season - and it's fifth with the new software engine.



I also have one team available in the brand new Beast Mode League - The Yellowstone Grizzlies who just won their inaugural pre-season game. The League also has some of the craziest player names in all of MFN.
https://beasts.myfootballnow.com/team/10

And,....In Legends, Setherick has recently vacated this team to focus more on his big data league. You can be certain, this team is in great shape for the new season. Gameweek 1 of the regular season is on the next turnspin (Friday 26th Nov)

Season 2 is finished. Three teams available for the new season. Free Agency one has it's turnspin on Monday. Below is a link to the end of season Power Rankings, Player Stats, including Post Season. It also includes a Cheat Sheet for Free Agency and the Draft Class, where the top 100 or so prospects have been renamed.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fRbiL_3IbzjXgz0cu5YQczOhTMlsL4RbaTPdk9gkMqY/edit?usp=sharing

I am open to teams being moved in the off-season, on the proviso that they stay within the 'Animal' theme and stay within the Division theme (eg a type of Dog in the Dogs division.)

TEAMS

LIMA LYNX: https://beasts.myfootballnow.com/team/1

Expectations are low following a 3-13 season as the team lost it's owner mid season after a promising 7-9 in the inaugural season. Of course with a poor campaign, comes a high draft pick (1.5, 2.4 and 3.3). Having failed to sign up it's vets, currently only 22 players are signed up for season three, so there is plenty of cap room for a rebuild as well the opportunity to trade down from those high picks.

ROCKHAMPTON TAIPANS https://beasts.myfootballnow.com/team/27

The #1 pick in the '03 draft goes to Rockhampton Taipans. A 1-15 season on the back of a 4-12 opener leaves the team with plenty to find. On the plus side, they have all 53 players signed up but need some serious cap massaging as they are somehow $32M overspent.

Certainly an interesting proposition with such high draft capital, trade down, trade back a year or two, cut or trade existing players for future picks or just restructure contracts. Should be a fun project.

KINTYRE LEAPING SALMON: https://beasts.myfootballnow.com/team/24

Alternatively, take on a project where most everything is in place. After a solid 6-10 opening effort the Flying Fish took a Wild Card last season with an 8-6-2 record. The team are all signed up, with $0 dead cap and $21M in cash to spend on free agents and/or draft picks. The 1.25 pick is reward for a strong season, in a Division that includes the current 'King of the Beasts'
