Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
First/Last Name: Still Dan Waller! It did not, in fact, change in the last 2 minutes1) I'm a big stats nerd 2) I'm a big baseball nerd 3) I'm a big fictional writing nerd 4) I enjoy being in the presence of other big nerds who share my nerdiness and who willfully participate in the same nerdy activities that I so nerdily enjoy myself, and I think our shared nerdocity (it's totally a word, trust me) will be mutually beneficial.
City/State/Country: Minnetonka / MN / USA

OOTP Forums Username: DanGladdenFC
Desired Forum Username: DanGladdenFC
Date of Birth (MM/DD/YY) for in-game purposes: 10/31/84
Occupation: Biostatistician
Other OOTP Leagues (with links): None at the moment. I used to play in an online league with my brother, a supremely annoying 'sconnie, and other random folks until the dreaded Grad School beast got in the way of my happy fun time activities.
Have you read the BBA Constitution and agree to abide by its rules?: Yes
Do you own the current version of OOTP, and plan to buy all future versions?: Yes
Do you understand the Participation Point System, and agree to be a regular contributor to our community?: Yes
What interests you about the BBA?: I mean it looks like it's got everything I'd be looking for in an OOTP league. Great organization, high activity levels, engaged players, even a little fame, apparently? What's not to like!
Describe your GM style: I'm big on trades and default towards win-now approaches. I tend to trade my draft picks and mortgage my future when I believe the time is right, and I like to strike when the iron is hot. But just in general, I do trade quite a bit. Trady McTraderson over here.
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): I've answered to far less kind aliases so I wouldn't mind this one.
Tell us more about yourself: I'm a biostatistician at the University of Minnesota, I sing in a choir for funsies, and I have probably too much free time on my hands. Great opportunity to fill it with OOTP-ness!
