That's so weird I was cleaning off my desktop yesterday and stumbled upon some .txt files containing the the "story" he had uploaded to some site of his
The worst part in it all is that even after 10 years playing, I still love the game and think it has potential to grow if the right people were running it.

Agreed on potential to grow, not sure if its the people running it or type of people playing it...feel like this would explode in the Asian/Eastern Europe market but is to in-depth for the majority of NA to actually commit time to learn... aka 95% of the people i used to run teams with in middle school who died out after their dots sucked in the 2nd season of playing

I think, the thing is, it's competing for a slightly limited market. This game is time consuming... requires serious work and planing (less so if just building dots but it's easy to make simple mistakes and wreck one if you don't pay attention to detail)... and does cost a little to play. Too many of the younger generation are Video minded... quick results, hours and hours of actual playing time, and therefore a feeling of more 'bang for the bucks'. So you're looking for people that have a limited amount of time to spend but want a maximum experience for the $ they're spending. I would think the target audience would be those that enjoy playing Fantasy Football where the experience is similar. That's where I'd put most of my advertising time and effort into.
Cant disagree with ya there, just cant believe that in the 11 years since i started playing this it is STILL the by far best sim/manager game ive played in any sport. The fact that anyone is still playing is a testament to that
