Temat: II.3

He's quitting PPM. Unfortunate. He worked hard to get to II.3 and when he did his friend's team went inactive since he was on vacation.

"Worked hard to get to ii.3" - I thought he demoted.

Or do you mean he strategically tried to get to ii.3? Was his buddy Elpatzer2 from the Screaming Weasels?

Oh Crap - Just noticed we received new prospects from the sports academy tonight. I hadn't viewed the guys I drafted yet - does that mean I lose them? Wasn't much turn around time.

Yikes, XaviesCrown! I guess with the delayed draft and results, the turnaround was super-short this time. I'm glad I was able to bring in my draft pull (i.e. the A-rated doesn't look worthwhile, but a C-rated defenseman I pulled looks to be more to my liking.)

I hope you aren't up the creek on this one.

Being friends with both the Chinooks and Weasels GMs, I'm re-evaluating my stay as well. I find the seasons (and hence the game pace) to be really long.

Was a dumb move on my part. I drafted a couple of 6/6 B's and was hoping they might be alright - in the end it might not be a big loss.

Would suck to lose another ii.3 team that dates back to Season 1. Have you thought about playing one of the other sports - I find that keeps me interested when the season drags out.

Yup, that's what it means. It was a one-time thing given the draft kerfuffle this time around.

Also, yes it was Elpatzer2. He had to promote to I.1 then relegate to II.3. Easier said than done.

Well, I'm back - after my disastrous mistake in Season 16 which saw an ill-timed training camp relegate me back to III. My sponsors hate me but at least I get some cash for promoting, so that's nice I guess....

Anyways, hope to stick around for a little bit longer this time!

Welcome back - hope you stick around a bit longer this time

Wow. Close match today with one of the recently departed. An opponent definitely taken too lightly.

I'll have to be careful on Wednesday.

Yup. I mucked up tactics, should have gone breaking vs normal if I understand counter tactics correctly. Luckily I didnt play the friendlies squad as I had originally planned.

What happens to the players on those teams? Free agency eventually?

canucks can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is what happens to players:

1) Anyone who was up for free agency still gets to ride the market, and will go to the top offer since the former team is managerless.
2) Anyone who was on a National team goes to market - eventually.
3) Anyone who the manager put on sale or put onthe market before his departure will still get to go to the top bidder.
4) Everyone else is slated to go to the non-existant state, still accessible via URL, but cannot leave the departed team.

#4 is sad since I think it ruins continuity for the game (from a player perspective.) You would think those players would find somewhere to play.

Yeah it would be nice to see some kind of dispersal draft or something for players on defunct teams.

Well - that was dreadful. So much for foresight, even.

Thats a tough one to swallow. Peppered 'em with nearly 50. Definitely wasnt Kennedy's day.
