No players anymore of his own. Prague still has a roster though. Did he finally just put all his multiples together?

Maybe people will come back to the forum now that he's gone?

Is he gone for good from EEPro? (crossing fingers)

too bad everyone seems to have run off to the private forum, maybe this will bring some back that didn't enjoy being scrutinized by Randy for anything they put down, especially in fun,

Nobody left because of Randy and no one really had a problem with Randy in the private forum. He's actually said several times that we should be done with the private forum and come back to the main one... but everyone seems content just sticking to the private forum.

he retired all his players,

others on his team are out shopping themselves,

Randy is going to either try to sell the team and gut to screw everyone which he was against for so many seasons, or is trying to pull a stunt on everyone, which I doubt he can pull off with his own capacity limiting him.

Damn.. I was looking forward to game plan against him again..

Randy is killing the team. He didn;t really say much. message was pretty brief. He's releasing those he can. Some players are staying on the roster and waiting for the ticket sales so they can get their Level 56 equipment. Some folks can't be released as they just signed on as free agents so need to wait for the team to go CPU.

Some folks are 'Sorry to see you go Bud' and playing nice.

The more I think about it, the more I believe he could have handled this better. Mostly I think though he had to cu himself off cold turkey because the guy was over the edge with how much GLB was a part of hhis life. If he had anyway back, he couldn't have left.. so only way to do it was to quit/retire his players/get rid of his team.

I just wish maybe he had hired a GM and petitioned support to allow the GM to take ownership of the team and then retired his own players.. Some deft last minute recruiting could have at least filled the holes and while it wouldn't have been perfect, it wouldn't have screwed over the FA's that signed with him, wouldn't have screwed over the EE Pro which he had made such a big deal over when others we CPU and he wouldn't have screwed over is friends who had been with him since the beginning and were blindsided as well with the method Randy used to dissolve his team.

That said, I hope his life situation gets better without GLB to drive him nuts.

My own honest impression? Prague got by on having levels. He posted his own thread that showed the levels/talent on his team compared to others. They had some good builds, but nothing that was completely shocking as OMG best playah ever~! He exploited and had been exploiting the Strong I HB Slam for many seasons. We beat him our first season in pros and we only stopped being competitive when our OC/DC (Me for part of it) just didn;t have the time to do anything related to setting up ai's and I have an attitudenal problem in hat I just can exploit plays and I wan to try to get everyone on the team involved instead of just using one player or a small number of players and do only what works. I figure everyone is buying flex and paying for their player so give everyone a chance to shine.

Maybe it was general apathy here, after seasons of doing the same thing, bu I've been far more impressed by the management structure and involvement in the other teams I have joined this offseason than at Prague.

Prague was purely the Randy Show.. everyone else was just there to twiddle and win.

Randy may have had more fun if he opened up a litle, and let other people help him out.

Ah well. Just looking for a home for my FS now. ave a few offers, and some possibilities.

...so should he be put on suicide watch?

>_>

Guess I don't know whats going on...just seems out of place for a guy to spend loads of money on this and then just quit cold turkey.

Thanks Enkidu98 for letting some of us know kinda what went on..

I wish he would have gone the GM transfer way as I think support would have done it quickly and without question. As I have said, I wish those on the Punishers good luck and I'm sure they will find competitive teams to move to..

My comments are just my opinion. I was with the team a very short period of time.

I could be and have been known to be, completely wrong.

I do not speak for any of the Punishers but myself.

I don't think we got by on levels from the time I was on the team (S3-S8)
we did get by on basic AI for a long time, I don't know what our settings were because Randy never shared them. We really didn't start looking hard at games until SGA started dominating, and when he put in the actual work, we won pretty handily. Say what you want about Randy, but he was a damn good owner and always gave us what we wanted, (max contracts, trading and rescuing our players of bad teams, money to shift around equipment) and really put EEPRO on the map, along with SGA and now Emmaus.
I can see why he quit, he was our recruiter ( even though we didn't bring in a lot of new people in), OC, and DC, and posted the majority of the topics on the forum. I know he has some busy r/l stuff to do with his dissertation and all that, so I hope the guy is doing alright.
