Welcome to the directory of leagues that are using Diamond Mind Baseball.

****PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DMB LEAGUE DIRECTORY IS NOW BEING HOSTED HERE****

(DIRECT LINK: http://www.hofl.com/dmb/leagues/)

THIS LIST LAST UPDATED APRIL 13TH, 2008

There are two types of leagues:

·         Hands on leagues in which each manager plays games using his or her own copy of the game and season disk

·         Centralized leagues where all of the games are played on the commissioner's computer under the control of the computer manager

·         Hybrid leagues which are a combination of Hands-on and Centralized.

With so many leagues operating, your help is needed in order to keep this directory up to date. A listing might indicate that there are openings, but it's quite possible that the openings have been filled and the league contact forgot to tell us that. Some leagues may have folded. And others may have changed some of the information shown here. If you run a league, or if you know of any information in this listing that is out of date, please let us know right away. About once a week or so, we'll post any changes that are brought to our attention. Red text indicates recent additions or changes.

This page also includes some important information about copyright laws and how they apply to the different types of leagues. Whether you're a league commissioner or league member, please help us make sure that our copyrights are not being violated through unauthorized distribution of games and seasons disks to league members.

Hands-on Leagues

These leagues give you the opportunity to be intimately involved in running a baseball team. You participate in annual drafts of rookies and free agents. You call the shots on trades. You decide which players are on your active roster, which ones are down on the farm, and who to call up when someone gets hurt or goes into a big-time slump. And you choose the starting lineups and make all of the tactical decisions for at least some of the games as your season progresses.

The common denominator for these leagues is that managers make their own roster moves and play at least some of the games on their own computers using their own copies of Diamond Mind Baseball and the season disk being used for the league. In most of these leagues, you play all of your home games while the computer manager handles your team (according to the manager profile you submit) when its on the road. In some leagues, you'll play the road games instead, and some leagues encourage you to play head-to-head over the internet using NetMeeting. Statistics, rosters, and manager profiles are exchanged at various intervals during the season using the transfer features built into the game.

NOTES: The Diamond Mind Baseball game and related season disks are copyrighted products and may not be copied or distributed to others without the consent of Diamond Mind, Inc. However, league commissioners are given special permission to distribute copies of the league disk (with rosters and stats for the season-to-date) to league members, provided the commissioner has previously checked with Diamond Mind to make sure everyone to whom the league disk is being made available is a registered owner of the game version and season disk being used for league play. Joining a league does not entitle you to a free copy of a Diamond Mind game or season disk, whether or not the league charges dues.

Diamond Mind Baseball is licensed only for personal, non-commercial use. Leagues are permitted to charge dues solely for the purpose of recovering actual out-of-pocket expenses (such as telephone charges, printing, and postage) related to operation of the league.
