Wow, did I hit the nail on the head here or what. Too bad they gave up so fast.

Dallas Rampage
Rampage Romping Grounds
Capacity: 11,570 End Season 5
Capacity: 11,940 Start Season 6 - 5% increase in capacity.
Notes: No stadium section built, which is an enormous miscue by management. By only adding seats, they're trying to field a competitive team now and sacrificing the stadium to do it. They're going to have issues in season 7 signing FAs and keeping players because payroll equipment costs will begin to exceed their stadium's ability to sustain them. They've primed themselves for gut/rebuild or being hawked off back to GLB unless they can get all of their players renegotiate for minimum pay so they can focus on the stadium for a couple of seasons.

Yup!!

We tried to tell him.

He just left without saying anything to anyone,so I don't know what the deal is.

It sucks because I was looking forward to the season and making playoffs,even though our stadium sucked!!

So bad you had to leave early, does throw us in a bad position without a first rate QB, but if Divebomber was telling the truth that it's more of a support team problem with not just giving him the team as requested, I think we'll still make the playoffs, still can't find 4 teams better than us!

Jon tried to take a loan to build a section and couldn't. He got an error message stating there was already a loan out, which there wasn't. We had a request in to support for that. We built what seats we could afford including some just last night. Jon was going to sell the team to me and we had requests in to support for that. The team was paid for and he was just going to get a partial flex refund. I am still waiting to hear back from support after a couple more requests but we have lost almost half the roster now. It was seamless when Jon bought the team from Jason in exactly the same manner. IMO support dropped the ball big time. There was no rush to turn the team over to the CPU. We were full speed ahead, recruiting players just this morning before going to work. This just sucks. I see why so many guys have just quit GLB. This sort of thing leaves a bad taste.

I took over an abandoned and neglected team near the end of Season 4 and have been rebuilding ever since. Season 6 continues the rebuilding program and we are still looking to sign a handful of lvl 9-15 players to complete the depth chart.

Please let me know if any active, well-built players are interested in joining my squad.

We have active forums and are working on expanding the stadium.

Thanks,


Richard M., Owner

I only left because I didn't want my QB stuck on a CPU team with a bunch of CPU players.

Alot of guys are going to leave even if they liked the team, because this allows them to go somewhere else and get another bonus. Double dipping.

There's no shot at the playoffs now,already lost alot of players and most of the good free agents with good player builds are gone. Once Divebomber takes over it would be best if he focuses on the stadium first and get it up to par with the rest of the league. He's going to have to suck it up for a season but a good stadium is the most important part of a team, and hope he can sign good players next offseason.

I've told SRC that I would bring my QB back. I also left before anyone said anything about Dive taking over.

This was a HUGH mistake on their part. They didn't say anything to anyone and they didn't let the other GM's know what was happening so they could prevent this from happening.

DiveBomber, send me a PM if you need assistance with support since I might be able to expedite the process.

Thanks but it's all taken care of now. With the loss of all those players we are basically going to start over. We'll be adding to the stadium, that's priority #1!!!

We'll be a cupcake for a while but my GM's and I will be doing our best to build a winning franchise.

Dang, Jonathan was so sure of him self too. Owning a team is alot harder then some would like to admit. I regrouped and spent two seasons learning what to do and now this new team I own will be in better shape. I hope he rebounds too.
