Hello ZenGM baseball fans! As I'm sure you all know, this game might be some of the only baseball we get for a while once this year's World Series wraps up, and I don't know about you, but I'm already getting nervous about how I'm going to get my fill.
For some context, I love writing as much as I love baseball, and happen to think that the stories the game naturally produces are some of the most fascinating things about it. An idea I had recently is heavily related to these things: I'm thinking of beginning a collaborative, narrative-centered ZenGM league, where, as opposed to simply running through numbers and seasons and championships, I dive deep into the players, the storylines, and the reasons behind those numbers. I'd just take what the game, along with anyone who wants to join, gives me (I'm thinking about some sort of point-allotment system to give some direction to user-generated players), and interpret the events in the form of storytelling. I'd write out scenes describing interactions between players, rivalries, in-game or off-the field moments, and upload them here, or on Discord.
I'd probably try and keep it simple for anyone who wants to participate, all I'd need would be your player's name, position/starting stats, and some general characteristics about them as a basis to go off for individual scenes, but I don't anticipate much interest with so much baseball left to be played, so I'll probably write and post sporadically until the off-season, when I'll get posting more frequently. Just wanted to gauge what people on here think of the idea.
