Just a quick note to all our Xbox coaches out there. Don't be a duck head!( yes I know I’m one to talk) There’s been a few instances in which members old and new have had problems with chat (GroupMe) and in-game behavior. Its simple, only trash talk guys you know can take it. Always ask your opponent if they want you to “play your game” or chew clock when things aren’t going their way. If you don’t know or can’t confirm if they are cool with banter or you pounding them in-game, then err on the safe side and take it as easy as possible. We all should be able to enjoy all that this community offers, but that shouldn’t be at the expense of other members enjoyment.

Hey guys, it’s been awhile I know. I want apologize for my abrupt leaving. I want to apologize for not telling you all why I left. I had something life changing occur to my wife that shook us to our core. Out of respect for her privacy, I won’t elaborate on what that is, but know that she will ok. I’m still trying to wrap my head around things right now but just wanted to let everyone know (those that give at s**t at least) that I’m not dead. I’ll eventually come back to the leagues but not sure when that will be. I’ll pop in periodically to say hi and whatnot. Take care!

Welcome friend. Do you support a team? @PaulG

Me too Side note GroupMe has done wonders in my opinion for creating more rivalries. The banter had there was downright hilarious, especially with the memes and GIF's.

Welcome brother, look forward to seeing you in one of the leagues. I'm a fellow American. There's a few of us with the site. Where are from in the states? Could be a 5-8 hour time difference depending on where you live. All games are sheduled in Greenwich Mean Time also known as U.K. Time.

Match reports; what do we do with them?
DaBurg864 replied to Vondia's topic in Important Announcements
Most definitely stay clear of incentives for reports. Incentives should be left to competitions since they usually have very little subjectivity to them. @Vondia mentioned a "nudge in the right direction" I believe that peer pressure could be the solution. The more people stream and write reports the more others may feel compelled to do it as well. Regardless, no one should be punished for being who they are. Leave it up to the community to create the experience they want to have. -
Match reports; what do we do with them?
DaBurg864 replied to Vondia's topic in Important Announcements
Gotta win to write a report, so that's understandable. I used to get p**sed when the occasional coach would ignore being tagged in a match report. I understand needing to collect your thoughts after losing but to completely ignore someone is just poor. I'm no longer bothered by it as it speaks more about their character than anything else. Thanks for your input! -

DaBurg864 replied to Vondia's topic in Important Announcements
I vote scrap the rule and here's why. This place is a community and like any community it it's only as good as its members want it to be. I was concerned that we would reach this point with the match reports but chose to remain quite(shocking I know) to see if people would feel compelled to write them. Last Madden @Joe and I were some of the most vocal people about the lack of match reports largely due to us being part of the few writing them week after week. I don't believe in creating a false image in what this community represents. If Coaches don't feel compelled to write reports so be it, not everyone is here for the same reason. Censorship, over regulation and unilateral decision making aren't things I think if when I think of a community. The only thing that'll make me leave is if the community turns into something like that. Overall, I love it here and occasionally get p**sed with things but that's the case with any community. I believe most everyone here has good intentions and I feel something like match reports should be left to those who want to complete them. I'd rather a handful of genuine reports than a bunch of trumped up ones. Kudos for bringing it to a vote, this is a community not a dictatorship. -
He's good at them. He made mine for me!
