OS NBA Hangtime League?

[billman29]

NBA Hangtime is a wonderful arcade basketball experience. It's everything that was great about NBA Jam and Jam T.E, with gameplay refinements that make it a more playable 2D basketball game. However against the CPU, like most arcade sports games, it can very quickly become quite tedious and boring. Thus, I am proposing an online league using MAME that will (if people sign up) create a fun community and some good competition among arcade basketball fans.

Some more specific details as to what I envision
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Not Overly Ambitious Number of People I'm Looking To Get To Sign Up: Six (Myself Included)
Number of Games: 10 (2 games vs everyone else in the league)
Playoffs: (1st Round: Best of One, 2nd Round: Best of Three, 3rd Round: Best of Five)
(Teams with the top two records in the league get byes into the 2nd round)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously to play the game, downloading MAME and the correct rom (NBA Hangtime rev L1.1 04/16/96) is required. Setting up online games should be very simple with MAME's straight-forward Netplay settings.

So ... is anyone interested? I'm fully willing to handle all of the grunt work, so besides scheduling games with your opponents and setting up MAME, there's really no risk involved in joining.
