aqualizard Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) EDIT If you see a ? below, and know the reason, plz let me know. ------- This Fall Classic is thick for Bs (many new guys -- hurray!) but thin for As.Why are A guys leaving? What can we do to retain them? For Plabax and Uncle Seth, they left because they got frustrated with the "Slacker Mentality". I get it. Also, for a good percentage, life just gets in the way, and priorities change. I get that, too. Here is a list of A guys from a year ago, and when I knew, I stuck the reason they aren't playig regularly. (I will add more guys as I think of them...) PLAYER REASON FPB busy Brutus still here / busy AngryJay busy Kingraph still here tomkabs moved JV ? hokkeefan ? zeppelin still here Plabax fed up with slackers Tex still here Uncle Seth fed up with slackers Depch laggy donnybrook ? Icestorm still here vocallycaged bored swos had kid Zalex bored Carse bored EA ? kgman ? smozoma got old Evan ? Edit: Added more A guys from the past...

CoachMac Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 #1 I think we should play and have fun. #2 Have well-organized and run leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jer_33 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I believe @Depch just got tired of the international lag. He's still active on the boards, just stepping away from leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smozoma Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I was never too into classic, and only played a couple seasons of GDL. I played Blitz, but eventually... just got tired of it, and didn't have the motivation for playing the game online any more. I guess I just got old. My ability to concentrate on hacking the game and working on the website disappeared, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I was a weird place where I was too good for B, but not good enough for A, so it was either play unfairly in B (won Fall Classic 2011 B with Toronto.. I guess I could have tried with worse teams) or always miss the playoffs in A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
