Winter Ball Registry

[roncollins]

If for no other reason than I'm thinking about it right now...do we have anything that tracks winter ball attendance?

[Lions]

I think the only thing we have publicly available is the CP rewards thread that gets posted each season.

[Bill]

I've always kinda wondered about this topic too.

I'd being willing to put together and manage list of players that have gone to Winter Ball (assuming the CP rewards threads are intact), if that would be helpful. I know that information isn't obvious when you've acquired a player from another organization.

[roncollins]

That would be awesome. :)

[Morris Ragland]

I agree that this is a very good idea.

[roncollins]

Just a brain drizzle ... I wonder if this could be done as a Wiki or something, and that the act of getting a guy sent to Winter ball would include/require each GM to edit the page. ???

[Borealis]

Are we looking for something simple like this? I couldn't find this past years (2021) CP rewards (Thanks Matt!!!!)...

Simple is good, though I would suggest ordering them alphabetically by player to make it easier for people to find their candidates, tthough at the end of the day, people may like it by team better...and searches can still get you what you need when you're trying to decide who to send. If it were by player, it would look like this ...
