too many Leagues with a "If you build it, they will come mantra". For a League to thrive, rather than survive. Someone has to actively seek players for said League.
For those who want a 'solution'. How about this?
When a player currently signs up he is not allowed to trade for 30 days.
Lets take that one step further.
The existing MFN sanctioned Leagues sanction only new members to join. Existing owners can remain with a team forever if they wish.
A new member can have a maximum of 3 teams until they hit the 30 day notice.
After 30 days, any new member has a much better understanding of the game and is better prepared to step up to the 'privately owned and adminned' Leagues.
This then gives a better indication of how many Leagues is 'enough' as the number of Leagues would be dictated by the regular stream of 'new players'. Rather than the current 'Survival of the Fittest' mentality.
Are you thinking of qualifier leagues? Am I reading that right?
I will continue to believe the issues and the solutions are within preventing the dilution that causes a limitation of ownership.
Qualifying leagues for "premie GMs" is a ridiculous concept in the lighting of my perspective.
More leagues?
The problem is too many!
Only so many players play, and every new league only takes from the older ones.
If the admin sucks, so does the league, and those leagues deserve to die.
The bottom line is league creation is a big chunk of revenue by token costs, and the easy fixes are not desirable for either ownership or the players.
For the angry one, glad you got riled. Yes, I do encourage you to stay in the leagues you are in, and not join ANY new leagues created IF the admins of any current leagues participated in is involved on a daily basis in such league. It would be foolish to leave a well maintained and administered league as the admin is the only "control" in the experiments that are user created leagues vying for uniqueness.
The only thing unique in private leagues is the admin - if you have a good one, **** right you should be loyal.
Feathers being ruffled means the right buttons were pushed.
If one has been in a league for an extended time, and that league is fading, does one ever consider the creator of that league may not be as dedicated as that league's GMs?
It is hard to get any group of people to favor the group over the individual desires, and more so in what is a "forever beta" type game such as MyFootballNow.
Oh, may as well encourage you to mask up, too :)
Every league one leaves for a new league is a league that dies. Remember that bottom line before one decides to toss tables in defiance of the whatever imperfect version of MFN that exists, whenever the **** in the future this post is read.
None of these arguments will change. Ever.
I find it beautiful.
Stay in the leagues that have admins busting their ***, and one will never be found wanting.
Aggravated by mechanics? Likely. :)
Grateful for dedicated GMs? You bet your bottom.
Anyone got another mic?
:P
Edit: all I use are D rules, over rides, and the r/p tab. Do you as that is what this game is. I do far less now in numbers etc than I used to, that is for sure. ...and I have had much more success to my chagrin.
We humans like to make things difficult.
Every experience is unique. ;)
FWIW: I'm always looking for new GMs for my 2 leagues. ;)
