This thread has been started by me for letting the new comers know that conducting a league looks easy but while implementing, it'll eat the total time.
I've said some points based on my experience with this section.
So, Before starting a league, do note these points:
1) Check the simulator you are using twice before starting a league. It may create many problems if it stops working at midst of the league.
2) Have Back up of all the information, matches of your league for future references.
3) Maximum,try to have a league with 8 or less teams as having more than that creates headache while the league is going on.
4) Give ownership of a team to an active person so as to avoid waiting for line ups.
While conducting a league, do note these points:
Main Point to be followed:
Follow the Rules.
Link for the rules of Cricket Leagues section: Click Me.
1) Keep it updating daily.
2) Too many matches can spoil the league.
3) Try avoiding posting commentary. Instead, upload the commentary text file to the post so that people having doubts about simulating the match can be clarified.
4) Do note to use "CODE" tags while posting Scorecard.
5) If you use simulator which can't provide commentary, post all required stuff like Partnerships, Batting Stats, Bowling Stats along with scorecard.
Its not necessary to write up the total match but still, if you're interested, write up the details of match.
If you can't follow at least ONE point from the above points, kindly don't start a league as these are the main points to be followed to conduct a league.
Just, like me, be a spectator, or participant in some of the leagues like WPL, CCPC, NZPL etc and have fun.
Last, but not the least,
Good Luck
