Those that run online leagues, what method do you use?

This is the first year Ive bought the game. We have a handful of guys from our Madden league here that want to play an online league together, long term.

I know there are some vets here that do this. What is the best method for a user base of 5-6 human players? Dropbox? Email? FTP?

If you have a link to any guides (other than the 2 year old ones on reddit) we would appreciate it. Also, if any leagues are looking to add a few dudes, we may look at that as well.

Thanks

Re: Those that run online leagues, what method do you use?

Since they converted league files to zips, it'd be a lot easier to share on a dropbox link. Everyone would have to understand the protocol to install an updated file(Overwrite the existing files in the .lg folder of their saved_games folder in their OOTP directory), which is a challenge, but an FTP server approach is a bit much for a small member size since hosting would be needed.

Using the dropbox method, the commish needs to create an archive manually(Commissioner Office > League file center > Create Archive) which will appear in the import_export folder within the .lg file of saved_games. Upload it to the dropbox or similar site. Owners download via the link and unzip directly into their own .lg file in saved_games with the game closed.

It's not many steps but may require patience and some trial and error.

Note: I've been heavily involved with an OOTP league for 3 years, we have openings(fictional league in the mid 90s), its a strong league if you prefer that route, let me know.
