I have been trying to figure out how to generate a schedule for our APBA league for the 60 game computer season. Normally, I would just let the program generate the schedule, but because I want to schedule exactly five games per team per calendar week, that doesn't work.

So I let the program generate the schedule and I then exported to a CSV file ( Read more... )

Today was our annual fantasy APBA baseball draft. We're playing on the computer (or with cards and dice) using player cards based on the 2020 season, which was *just* a wee bit weird due to COVID. Normally, we try to draft before the MLB season starts, but we were a month late this year -- due primarily to COVID.

I have a pretty good team coming ( Read more... )

Today is the day before Julie's 13th birthday. She wanted to go out to Red Robin for dinner tonight instead of tomorrow, so we headed out that way after work and a good (and filling) time was had by all.

Tomorrow, we continue the birthday celebration and start the softball season.

Sunday, we have our annual fantasy baseball draft.

Oh, and Monday, ( Read more... )

My baseball buddy who ordered the cards for our APBA baseball league has passed them along to me to look at and sort. So far, I have pulled the eight teams in the league (and verified that I have all of the players in the right pile for 5 out of 8) and put all of the other cards into piles by position for further sorting later.

Against all odds, we completed our highly delayed APBA baseball draft today. For those of you just joining us, this is a continuous ownership, superstar league with eight teams sopping up major league talent from the 30 real MLB teams. We get some very good teams; in order to prevent pitching from dominating, we have a cap on the number of the ( Read more... )

Our annual fantasy APBA draft was today. To explain for those of you who haven't sat through this explanation before, this is an eight-team, superstar, continuous-ownership league drafting from all of MLB for a cards-and-dice game (also played on the computer) where the player cards are based on the previous season's results. So you can draft one ( Read more... )

Our annual fantasy APBA baseball draft is Saturday.

I am *immensely* curious as to how this is going to go down. But I'll know soon.

It was the day for the annual draft for our APBA baseball league. League play having wrapped up before the following MLB season started was a fine thing ( Read more... )

Today was the day of our annual fantasy baseball draft. We play APBA baseball in an eight team superstar league, half of the season with all teams playing on the computer; the other half of the season with half of the league playing face-to-face, while the other half of the league finishes up on the computer. I've been all-computer for some time ( Read more... )
