Simulation League needs a few owners

The Internet Baseball League used the Pursue the Pennant board game
during its first four years of operation. PtP was considered to be one
of the most advanced and accurate table-top baseball simulations of
its time. However, when PtP failed to produce a card set for the 1995
MLB season, the IBL decided that it was time to use the vast baseball
simulation experience of its members to create the most realistic game
available.

As a starting point, the IBL Game Design Team decided in early January
of 1996 to attempt to reverse-engineer the PtP game system. This would
serve a double purpose: (1) it would give the team valuable experience
in the game design process, and (2) if successful, it would provide
the IBL with a viable pseudo-PtP solution to the 1996 IBL season.

The IBL season started two weeks late, but the PtP system was
successfully re-produced! Cards were distributed in postscript form.
The only changes to the charts were the fence distances, wild plays,
and special rules for Coors Field. After the 1996 season, IBL members
voted to continue to use their own card sets, and thus the design team
started work on the 1997 set.

The IBL Game is now a product distinct from PtP, with its own charts
and rules. We believe that this is the best table-top baseball
simulation available, and that it is improving with every new set. We
hope that you enjoy our game!
