"Casual Players" shouldn't be owners or GMs. It's not any more work for "Casual Players" if this were the case. Build your players to your liking, find a suitable home for him, win/lose some games, assign points, check out the forums from time to time....wash, rinse, repeat.

As far as Randy intervening this past season and not keeping other teams feelings or desires in mind...don't forget that Dberner wanted his team demoted. We, and several other owners, gms, and agents helped with that process.

There are LOTS of people that play this game that are obsessed. Even more so than you feel Randy is. You think the hundreds (maybe thousands) that write scrips, spreadsheets, and such for this game aren't obsessed? Those are the people that are dropping lots of money into this game and clearly care about their team/conference/league/regions reputation. Look, I'm not saying it's completely healthy to devote every waking hour to these dots, but hey, people do it in other games all the time. You name it, Madden, CoD, WoW....hell, really anything. There will ALWAYS be people that take something that you do and spend more time on it than you do.

Idunno, while I'm not, by any means, obsessed with this game, I do look forward to coming home every other day to see how my team did. I enjoy grabbing a pencil and pad of paper to write out a plan for my next few levels (yes, I realize there's a lil program out there for this) and such. However, I accept, as should you, that there will always be people here that take this a lot more seriously than you do.


i think we are all wondering. who is top/bottom between you and randy?

seems like randy really pleases you. does he give you rimjobs for support? hmmm.

pretty sure youd be willing if he wanted to take a dump on your chest though.

I seriously hope you don't think that you trying to talk smack in the stylings of an 8th grader is getting under my skin. I wonder if you realize that everyone here sees you for the fool that you are. It's fine, really. Continue your man crush...your desired bromance, if you will. Anyway, whenever you decide you're ready to put a little bit of pride on the line, send over that scrim challenge. Don't worry, we won't change tactics up much...if at all. I can't wait to hear your best Dennis Green impression..."They are who we thought they were...". We're waiting.

While I agree I prefer a more competiive league, I also have to say its not anyone else place to define casual player or to say who should stay and who should leave from a league.

If a team is in a league and has not been relegated normally and they are _attempting_ to keep an active team then they should not be relegated until the normal algorithm Bort has been using states they should be relegated.

I'm pretty hardcore into this game, I'm not a 'casual' player, but its not my place to define the fun for other teams or define for them what they need to do to make my game better.

This is the essence, I believe, of why people are so pissed.

At the same time, I think these people are taking their 'pissyness' entirely too far. You are complaining that your fun has been spoiled and you retaliate by spoiling the fun of neutral third parties who are not involved.

You've both contributed in your own ways to making EEPro a shitty league.

Lets now maybe grow-up and think about how we can make the best of the present situation and work at providing a fun, football oriented atmosphere for everyone and stop being petty. So if Misc could put the 'roids bottles/syringes away and Randy could hide his spreadsheets and watch his tone in his postings where he makes it appear he's the final arbiter of all things EEpro and who should and should not be playing in the league.. then maybe we could all enjoy it a bit more.

I don't think he was going to actually stab me through the interweb

I think it was more a damn I can't believe our team was so afraid of AAA that we threw a AA playoff game just to stay there!
