Okay, guys, it's a ridiculous hour of night but I feel like it's now or never.

baseballfantasy.

A while ago, I wondered out loud, "Wouldn't it be fun to have fantasy baseball that's truly fantastic? Like instead of using real players, we used hobbits and shit?" But at the time I ran up against a very basic problem: no way to usefully simulate games without tying the characters to a real player, and of course, no way to meaningfully tie characters to players.

Well, I am moving into the beta stage of a working baseball simulator using random numbers, so I don't HAVE to invoke real players. And I think it's high time we had a fantasy baseball league with a real element of fantasy--like, one that lets us pit the Beaumont Browncoats against the Winterfell Wolves.

Because the only thing better than nerdy is other kinds of nerdy.

I've posted a FAQ, and opened up nominations of fandom teams. I'm also called for volunteers, ideas, and fun things.

Please pimp this idea like a crazy pimping thing. The more, the merrier!

(Also this gives me a deadline for finishing the simulator.)
