Startup leagues Fantasy Basketball: open spots

A startup league is brand new. Every manager drafts from an empty roster on the same day, so nobody has a head start. Startup listings are the closest thing to a level playing field on this board.

Been running fantasy football and basketball leagues for fifteen years. This is a new startup and will be a ton of fun..I'm an active and flexible commissioner. And this league will be a blast.

One of my favorites. We start with a $300 budget Auction. Every 3 weeks we drop the bottom two teams, then have a mini auction and cannibalize the players of the dropped teams. Once we get down from 16 teams to 8 teams, we have a playoff with some stacked teams.

Questions

Is a startup league better for a new manager?
It can be. Everyone drafts from scratch together, so there is no roster history to catch up on.
How do I join a listing here?
Use Ask to join on any listing. Your note goes to the commissioner by email, and they decide whether to bring you in.
Who holds the buy-in money?
Buy-in custody for a startup league listing is between the commissioner and the manager, not the board. Confirm how dues are collected before you pay anything.
Why did a listing disappear from the board?
Listings auto-hide once a league fills, its draft passes, or the season ends. Nothing lingers past its useful window.
Does the board vet these leagues?
No. Listings are not vetted, paid or free. Ask the commissioner your own questions before you commit.
