We have a Game 7 tonight in Houston between the Nationals and the Astros, with the winner becoming the World Champions. What a great way to end this season. Good luck to fans of both sides.
We are ready to flip the site from 2019 to 2020 and will do that early next week. Look for Registration to launch on Wednesday with drafts starting as soon as we fill up the first $150 Draft Champions League. I'll start to post the contest Rules and Prizes this week on the Message Boards so that everyone can prepare for the season ahead.
We have few changes to the existing contests. Entry fees have not changed. Prizes are very similar (expanded a little in some of our national contests). Rules are exactly the same, with the exception of minimum innings pitched in the Platinum and Diamond being moved to 1,100. We are projecting more growth in the existing contests and looking at a few possible new games to come later in the drafting season. NFBC Guillotine Leagues is something we are seriously looking at along with another cool concept.
It will be first-come, first-served for the NFBC $150 Draft Champions League when we open Registration, but feel free to post your desire to be in one of the first leagues here and we'll try to help you out when the site launches. We are excited to get the site live sooner than ever before and can't wait to launch our 17th NFBC season.
17 years!!!
It's amazing how far we've come as a community, as an industry, as players, as game operators. It's been a fun ride and the best is yet to come. Join us for the next journey on this ride. See you soon.
