Don't know if we finally stay here (Borf change leagues every season/day). We started S 12 in AA#4, last season in AA#2 and now in AA#2! 
Anyway, I welcome us here.

I will welcome us (and you as well) to EE-AA#3. Pretty damned sad they had to consolidate AA leagues.
Why the hell did we need the other capped leagues (46 and 42) again?
After 38 you should automatically jump to AA then (providing a winning record). This would eliminate all of the CPUs (or at least most of them) and make it a better balanced league. Trying to recruit anyone between levels 46-52 is nearly impossible it seems this off-season, and I don't foresee it getting any better. I don't feel a level 42+ player has any business being in a capped league, unless it is a casual one. But by the same token, there is not any valid reason to have a level 60+ player in AA either (by which I know my team has been guilty of having). Level 60+ players should be AAA and above, or retired (if their builds are that crappy that they can not compete) this would maybe help to fill out some of the CPU teams up there too, and make the entire game better off.
Get rid of the CPUs, 42 and 46 capped teams, and AA will once again become relevant!!!
Whoa did I get off track
Anywho, welcome to EE-AA#3 to anyone who cares I guess.

yep, that's a possible solution.

Off track...yes.
On target....definitely.
The Istanbul Titans welcome everyone to the league. I hope we can do better than the #9 spot last season.

indeed, it was more about the whole AA league than the AA3 specifically.
But the season14 looks definitely more interesting now for all of us (AA3) than few days ago
Pragues Warrior or Athens Odyssey for champion ?

another team better than mine 
I know, it's too soon to predict something but I think Pragues and your team will be better than Titans because right now, they have high level player, but old guys who will decline or at least not get better.
well, when preseason will begin, we will need a "prediction thread" I guess lol

Considering that Prague is an one man team, has 35 players (7 of them CPU) mad has no depth in defense, I'm not concerned. Titans has a full roster and seem better prepared imo. Warsaw looks nice and NJ Wardogs if they fill some holes in their roster can compete for the Alpha title.

Istanbul Titans will be competing this year, how we do, we are not sure. Recruiting has been a hell of a hard time. We lost one of our long term players in the offseason and quite a few players with him (went inactive). Trying to fill 20+ holes between those who left and the long term player not logging on, has been nerve racking. That being said, I think we should atleast make the playoffs unlike our first season in AA.

You said it jestisp...
With the 42 and 46 capped leagues now, it seems nobody wants to play in AA anymore. Everyone wants either the capped leagues, or AA and Pro.
Berf had better fix AA, or you're going to see a lot of teams fold after this season (or at least go casual capped).

Drunken Monks, this is our 8 season together as a team, started out as a cap 13 and worked our way up the hard way, not a slow build team, but as a recruiting team. Have never missed the play-offs since inception.
We look forward to a challenging fight for one of the top 4 seeds in the league. We are one of two teams in the league from last year that made the play-offs and didn't get sent to AAA. Recruiting has turned into a very difficult endeavour over the past 2 seasons. Even with a .700 winning % and a flawless play-off streak, I still can only sign about 2% of the players I want!
Guys want to play AAA and join a team with a 16-0 or 15-1 previous record. Its ridiculous...
