Check In time.

[Cringer]

Gees, I haven't even made this a mandatory check in yet, I was going to wait until next week.

[vaevictis_386]

I'm back next year for sure.

Well I'll answer you then. I just don't have the fuckin' time to be responding to two threads!


j/k of course :lol:

I'll be back but I have to admit that there are things in FOF (like illogical penatly acceptance/denial!!!) that are making me question my further involvement. That being said it's been the IFL itself, not FOF, that's kept me "playing" the past couple of months and will most likely continue to do so barring some drastic unforseen drop in activity (which is extremely doubtful to happen now that Columbia's got that publicity whore of a QB back. What's his name? Cartevagina or something? ).

- Jester

BTW Sovstar - So there's no misunderstanding, I consider Julian being a "pub whore" to be a good thing for the IFL.

[roadrash]

I'll be here and back in full force

Define "full force". Will you have an actual signal caller?

And oh yeah.. I spose.

Actually, due to my troubles with signal callers. . I'm just going to direct snap to Beamer from now on. . much cheaper that way

Vipers will return and put an end to being the doormats of AC East.

[Wolfpack GM]

Wolfpack will be back

I'll be back next season.

[Jave]

Are you kidding? Year 3 baby, time for the Assassins to win it all!

[Hammett]

Vipers will return and put an end to being the doormats of AC East.

If you want to start by beating WV this week, go right ahead!

[Warhammer]

Vipers will return and put an end to being the doormats of AC East.

Boston was the doormat last year. Heck, what other division can claim to having a 7-9 last place team one year, and another 7-9 or an 8-8 team the next! Heck, in the NC you'd be a playoff team!

Time to sit back and wait for the comments......

You are still 2 years from contending for a playoff spot and by that time who knows if you will be able to keep your cap as low as you think you can. Jim made changes to the renegotiating process in the last batch of patches, so don't think that all of your young starters aren't going to be asking for the league average, which wouldn't have been the case in earlier versions of the game.

Perhaps you will make another JaveGate-esque trade and find a way to lower the overall talent of your team.

[BuddaKINGII]

We'll be back next season, haven't had much time to check the mb this week.

[BIGWOOD1488]

Well,I know I'll be here until you guys run me off.

[VitoStallion]

I'm in

[BurlingtonBolts]

Just to clarify, I did say I would step down. But I am not running from a situation. I could handle my own. Believe that, I just realized when it started that it was stupid and I let my emotions bottle up for a few days and when I thought something else had happened, I flew off the handle.

As people were replying I realized that I jumped to conclusions or whatever, and I said i wouldn't reply again. Even though someone wanted proof, I said I wouldn't post again, at the time I was still a little pissed, and asked to step down before it got ugly or whatever. Since the thread didn't belong there in the first place.

Anyways, to make a long story short, Cringer already has my replacement and Sovstar acts as if my running the team for a few weeks ruins my replacements chances to field a good team, so it seems that I may not even get to enjoy my team getting waxed in the first round of the playoffs. Yes, it was left up to me, but it's obvious for resigning purposes it would be best if I left now.

That all being said, I want to take this time to thank everyone, this is a great league and it takes more than a good commish and a good backup commish to make a great league. It takes alot of good and dedicated gm's. This was one of my top 3-4 leagues, no doubt about that. I planned on stepping down from two leagues at the end of their respective seasons, since I always try to see things through, unless real life gets in the way. The ironic thing is, this league wasn't going to be one of those that I dropped. I love this league.

Thanks to everyone who made this league great. I know that I am not the most active poster, or even close to it. But I do browse the message boards and try to keep up. If you don't know me from other leagues, I am in way to many leagues and sometimes that's all I can do, post occasionally and enjoy what others say and contribute. Sometimes I get jealous because those that focus on 1 or maybe 2 leagues, they get a special experience in another way, they can do team articles and what not. But to each their own.

I am addicted to the game and love the multiplayer experience. It was my pleasure competiting against you all. I just hope that if it comes down to it I am wanted back down the road and that if my successor steps down I get first crack at my team.

Personally, I think my team is left in much better shape than when I got it. I think it would be best that everyone was left as a free agent as their offseason demands are usually less than their in season ones, especially if their ratings increase or decrease, it usually happens in the offseason.

That being said, it has been left up to me, but if the powers that be think it's best for me to step down now, who am I to argue?

I made this bed, and now I will lie in it.

Thanks again to everyone from the top to bottom for making this a special league.

Good luck to my successor who can take over now if he so chooses. Just give me the green light and I will stop sending exports. Or contact Cringer and he can tell me.

Thanks.
