New: United Professional Hockey League (free, open-ended, email, human, modern, sports) From: lindahl@pbm.com (Greg Lindahl) Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2001 20:13:15 +0000 Name: United Professional Hockey League Costs: Free URL: http://www.geocities.com/mwjon2/UPHLhome.html Frequency: Season every month, several communications per season Email: mwjon2@yahoo.com.au Type: Ice hockey league Last-Update: 2001Dec24 Keywords: free, open-ended, email, human, modern, sports Description: The UPHL is a sports league with a difference. Trade and draft players, then name a team for the coming year. Games are not played individually. At season's end, awards are given and the process starts again. Success in the UPHL depends on your skill in creating a team which has what it takes. Blend scorers, defensive specialists and goons into a fit young unit. Use bonus points and star players to give yourself a scoring advantage. Get those veterans and go for the cup, or trade away your second tier for draft picks and rebuild. Players age, improve and retire just like in real life. At a season a month, a dynasty takes less than a year to build. The UPHL is ALWAYS looking for new teams to join.
