Activity's way down and it's been far down, and it seems like most of you don't care at all. GM's are dropping like flies and I can't replace any of them. Gus was planning on quitting after he took over simming for me this week, which would mean that I'd have no help on free agency/simming/draft files. Not only that, but I'm going to get a job next semester and combined with school, I won't have an excessive amount of free time like I do right now. So, it's probably for the best that I step down, which would mean the end of the league unless someone wants the file to sim and try to bring EBL back to life. I'd still be a GM here and could help out a little, but my time running this league is over.

Not only was it the best FBB league I've been in, but the best that was out there. Not only in terms of how it was ran and maintained but also the draft files were amazing and never allowed player rating inflation. In all seriousness everyone did a great job, and I loved my time here.
Happy Thanksgiving guys, I am thankful to have been a part of this league.

Damn thats sad to hear, my Bucks were looking at going one step further this year... If it has to end, it has to end, I have enjoyed the league.. Highlight was making the Finals last season, lowlight was Cousy busting and Pettit leaving us, bastardo... How bout simming this season out, just to see who wins? |

This has easily been one of the best leagues I've ever been in. Even though I spent the my whole tenure in constant rebuilding mode, it was a fun experience. I really hope someone can takeover because it would be a shame that something so good would end so abruptly.
Happy Thanksgiving guys!

I have to agree with everyone else, too. This league has been great, definitely the best I've been in, though I haven't been in many. Nonetheless, it will be missed.

Yeah I have really enjoyed the league, and thank the guys who have put the time in to keep it going, it must be very difficult to manage personal time with the commitments of running the league.

It sucks that the league's coming to an end, but it was a very good league while it lasted. It sucks, cuz my team was one its way back to greatness. Only team to make the playoffs every season!
With so many missing GMs and inactive GMs (Ill admit I havent been doing my part since the season started), it's gonna be difficult to change commishes and continue running the league
Anyway, if someone's willing to run it, I'll stay, but if not can you sim the rest of the season to see who would win?

The turns life takes lol...At one point a while back I'd be on 24/7 for every league I was in and obviously recently I've had almost 0 time and interest.
I want to thank a lot of people that have made leagues fun for me. Also a BIG thanks to Chris for putting his time, effort and a lot of hard work into this league..It definitely wouldn't have lasted without you. Those GM's that I'm closer to, you know who you are, I also want to give a big thanks to. Every GM that has been here from day 1, to those that have already left and even the new guys who have put time into it, a BIG thanks to all of you guys as well!

I wouldn't mind taking over if I had a helping hand, aka Braves. The Gus to my Chris.
As long as the index was maintained and someone taught me the basics of uploading/saving/etc then I'm sure I can find the time to sim.
The ONLY problem would be the draft files. Chris said that he would still be a GM in this league if someone took over, but you would still have the responsibility of the draft file, you ok with that?

Draft files take a ton of time. I could make player ratings if someone would make the base players for me. Uploading is very simple, so that won't take long at all to learn.

Outside of running it, getting GM's is also important. Is Tao able to take over for a short while?

Gus should have all he base players for the draft. I know I made about 5 classes or so for him myself that are yet to be used. He must have them somewhere on his computer. |

Well, I'd be glad to see a TWolves/Pistons coalition run this league. Still, I'd be able to step in for temporary stints maybe, but right now, I can't even consider being a regular simmer until the NBA Season is over. My blog, going to the games, and watching all of the Warriors and Thunder games takes up way too much of my time. And if the league does end, it would be a very sad day. Easily the most hilarious, realistic, and best run league I've ever been in. Minimal drama, lots of basketball. Thanks for all of the hard work, Chris and Gus.

With sonics and indy's backup it should work.
