Talking about stacked - I just checked the Free Agent Pool.
There are still 48 names stacked up in there. That's seven teams!
But are there seven captains in that pool? Sure there are.
Wouldn't it be fantastic if everyone in the pool found a team! |

| We may not win against the stacked teams, but we'll have better entries. :-) |

Yes, each team will have it's own private thread when the first challenge of the league is opened.

Can we maybe try and get this a week or so before the first challenge is announced or is that too much to ask? |

Probably too much to ask, it's all tied together right now, and anyway it gets confusing because teams are in flux still. It's cleaner to do it at start-of-season, when the lineups are set. |

| You can start a PM with all of your team members, though. Then just move to the private thread when the league starts. We did that just for introductions for now. :-) |

B.S. Participation is more about learning through collaboration with teammates who become your friends. Several teams have no expectation to win or even compete, but they are going to enjoy the ride. Get on the Free Agent List or create a team yourself. You can do this and you won't regret it! |

Remember it's a league, not an elimination tournament (until the playoffs), so everyone gets to participate throughout regardless of how they fare against the other teams. There are no actual prizes -- it is (like the site) primarily a (fun) learning experience. |

I second this - I was so new last year for TPL - but stuck my hat in the ring and gave it my best. I got a lot of my highest scores and learned a ton in that short period. Jump in, the water is fine. |

When I just looked there were 44 still in the pool.
Remember there are only 2 teams in this competition who will finish in last place.
And even they will have a memorable experience...so you don't have to worry about that.
Of course, you could worry about finishing in first place, but one step at a time!
Now, here's a thought: Six members who have been around for a bit select 3 people above your name,
and 3 people below your name, form a team and get going in a fun ride.

Don't think. DO.
Best way to get into practice again :-) |
