Bort,

We prepared our recruiting based upon what you had originally stated. That we weren't being reshuffled. So today we signed the free agents that our owner had spent the last season recruiting. We asked you point blank and received the answer that you weren't going to reshuffle our league.

This borders on outright fraud. Ban me if you'd like but you've now fucked our season entirely.



He hasn't done anything - he's just fielding inquiries


And I am answering his inquiry. Reminding him that he quoted our owner in his response saying that he wouldn't reshuffle the league.

Yes.
(i think all leagues except pro/aaa need to be reshuffled or the game will never be fair/fun)

Some of us weren't able to plan ahead because we weren't expecting to get promoted and that happened this morning to our surprise


All you had to do was look at the leagues above for promotions and relegations. Its not that tough to see. Everyone is just taking advantage of the reshuffle now. I don't especially care what your individual situations are. We asked in good faith acted upon his statement and were directly lied to.

Haha. You're full of shit asshat. You can recruit for an Uncapped League no matter if it's A or AA. Just change your fancy PM to "My team in AA" not "My team in A". Done.

Looks like a lot of requests to be included in the shuffle script for this tier, 'specially since there were all the CPU's and such from last season's promotions getting moved down.

I would need a large majority of team owners or GM's in this league tier to approve this to make it happen. It would not happen on day 43, since I don't want to spring it suddenly and with no chance to set your level settings, but we could do it later in the offseason like day 44.

Please post a link to your team here if you approve of this, but ONLY if you're a team owner or GM in this league. Random players and people from other leagues need not apply. Thanks!


Dammit, I would have loved to voted into that, but my request to get demoted went through instead of my request for the shuffle...is there anyway I can get back into the request for the shuffle? Otherwise my team of 10-14s are gonna be in a league with the cap at 34...http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4240

http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=6664 I approve, but I signed 4 higher leveled players that I cant cut now (for at least 6 days ). If you do shuffle can I release the 4 players or would it go by a average level of players? Please reply because I pm'd support 3x's and didnt get a response until today about it after my contracts we're sent out. Dpride let me know it wasnt our league at the last minute allowing me to sign a few of my friends players. I'd rather be in a level 28 to 30 league.

The point here is that Bort lied when asked directly about the shuffle. This is not about picking and choosing where you want your team to be which is what you all are making it into. Some choose the slowbuild route, some choose to sign higher level players. We are somewhere in between. The fact of the matter is that plans were made based directly on what Bort himself said to us and now after we've signed players he's going to change it up.

I hear you - but it seems like some teams wait to the last second to fold - making predicting promotion difficult. I'm not asking for us to be placed back down in A. I just think shuffling the 4 AA leagues horizontally would make for some fairer competition.

I'm guessing even if you did plan ahead you won't be getting screwed - you would just be ending up somewhere in A with a group of teams comparable to your level. Perhaps I'm missing how it screws you over. I'm not trying to pick a fight, just trying to understand the issue from all perspectives

It is going to place us in a league that we didn't recruit to be competitive in. We knew there was a chance to be promoted and were prepared for that. However now we have no idea where we'll be until day 44 or 45. If we get stuck in a league with rosters full of lvl 50's with no chance to recruit.

I would support anything that creates better competition.

Doing this would accomplish that.

Even if my team is left where it is, there are a lot of teams worse off than myself that don;t belong where they are.

I still don't get how EE was left out of all this.

It took me 3 days to find out from dpride that this league wasnt involved. So now I got level 33-44's with a studly slow build based team of 26-29s that could kill most any team in that 29 range . So what to do now? I cant release these guys for 6 days. More then likely I'd get shuffled up because of this.. If it goes by average we probably will only average about 28 or 29. Otherwise I have no clue. But I do approve of it if its done fair.

My understanding of shuffle is that it would keep you in A. It would shuffle the 256 teams into 8 new groups accordingly to level so you would find yourself competing with 16/32 similar to yourself. Had you planned differently you would still have ended up with 32 teams similar to you. It sounds healthy to me
