Aw, either my joke wasn't any good or it just got lost in the back and forth...

To add to that conversation though...the only issue I see with recruiting players for an uncapped team is then bragging (not saying that is occuring here) about how you beat teams that you severely out-level. If there is no bragging or anything of that sort, then it doesn't bother me a bit. Some teams choose one way and other teams choose a different path. While I would rather have league parity, I don't. So...meh.

I think boasting about a win (not saying that is occuring here) against an out-leveled team is just about as helpful and interesting as watching paint dry. And just about as useful as kicking somebody when they are already on the ground. If that is what it takes for you to feel better about yourself, then please send my level 1 slowbuild team scrimmages and I will help you lead a happier life.

And that is the second-person all-encompassing 'you'.

Ok here we go.

Washington Wrath 16-0.


yeah with no help from your player, thank the level 40's+ you going to ride their coat tails.


Lol, ok man. It was a joke. Besides, being on a good team > stats to me.


I understand that but boasting about going 16-0 when you recruited so many higher levels is pretty weak Washington Wrath was already a good team before the mass recruiting they could have done real well without having to recruit. Anyways good luck hopefully before we have to play you our builds mature some more so we can actually make it a game.


If I boast about going 16-0 it's going to be me boasting in the fact that I had the stones and the contacts to bring in higher-level players to win rather than accept defeat with a bunch of level 24's. My team last year was a great group of guys, and I appreciated having all of them....but common sense says that this game is about who has the better players.

a better owner would have considered what the rest of the league was doing (95% of the league wasn't recruiting anyone over level 28) hence certain teams that recruited level 40+ players look like ass now because they did. so they can sugar coat it however they want the issue really is just because you can steal something without anyone noticing doesn't mean you should. It's all about sportsmanship is where my beef lies but seriously we should just end this bickering and get on with the season.

Who's boasting about 16-0. It's called a joke. Never smart to seriously say stuff like that - look what happened to the Patriots.

I don't hold it against a team to improve their roster, no matter what the rest of the league is doing. The Serbia Swarm chose to keep the agents together that were already on the team. We have a very solid team for the levels that we have. If those same agents had players that were level 40+ and had offered to bring them to the Swarm to make us more competitive, we would have took that deal in a heartbeat.

Look at it this way, those teams that were able to get high level talent for this season will probably be promoted after this season and you won't have to worry about playing them anymore. Plus you will still have plenty of competitive games against teams that have similar level players.

ok let me set the record straight on this recruiting issue. it's not that i didn't BOTHER TO RECRUIT trust me i never have problems recruiting and if i wanted to have all level 40's i would heck i would have level 50's no problem. ok so this is not an issue that i couldn't recruit it's the fact that i chose NOT to recruit anyone over level 28 the fact i am such a good owner 95% of my roster returned and i didn't need to recruit, the other fact that i don't just dump my agents because their players are too low level now to what you call "compete" as well as the fact i'm not an asshole to dump them all and pick up all level 40+. ok so stop saying i failed to recruit yadda yadda because had i wanted to go there i could have GONE there easy!

We going to surprise some higher level teams this season mark my words your level 35's 40's don't really scare me fact i look forward to the challenge we already plowed some higher level teams in preseason already granted it is preseason who cares.... so you guys do what you gotta do to make yourself feel better about the situation where some of you owners out there were so afraid of equal level competition you chose to go out and recruit higher level players so you so called had a chance damn straight you had to do it because i bet if you didn't get level 40+'s all over your roster you wouldn't have had a chance. the dedication or LACK thereof to your agents just goes to show how bad of owners you really are and this type of managing a team will eventually catch up with you. You guys may get promoted this season (due to obvious reasons of outleveling many teams) but i really look forward to catching up to you guys next season and then passing you up on my way to the Pro leagues.

Now what other kind of argument you going to come up with to try to justify your recruiting methods?

Now that you feel you've gotten the last word?

I'm sorry...I'm just not going to apologize for recruiting the best players I can. If we go 16-0, or 15-1, 14-2...I'll boast because we won before the season began by the team we built.

Awesome. This league was different than most uncapped leagues. I am glad you enjoyed your 5 day season.
