Reasons you should join my team:
- I’m a 23 year old, married graduate student. You won’t have to worry about dealing with an owner who is irrational, rude, or TYPZ LEIK DIZ. I am very mature, but I do have a good sense of humor.
- I am extremely active (Since I got this team I've been averaging about 6 hours a day reading the forums, talking with players, scouting, going over film, game planning and recruiting). I respond to all of my PMs within 24 hours. I help players with their builds, give advice, and spend an inordinate amount of time trying to convince people to join this team. I am dedicated to bringing the best players here and winning. I will leave no stone unturned in order to put together the best team possible.
- I am very honest, genuine, and respectful. I treat my players with respect and I am open with everyone on the team. I will never lie to you or purposefully mislead you.
- I am understanding and flexible. If you are ever unhappy being on my team and I cannot fix the situation, I will never hold you to a contract, I will grant you a trade or release. I want my players to be happy and if I cannot do that I will not force you to stay here.
- I will do whatever it takes to keep my players happy and competitive. I will give bonuses for equipment or even if you are just running low and want to train on intense before the off season. I will do my best to ensure you ample playing time, most likely starting. If for whatever reason I acquire another player at your position that prohibits you from starting or getting the playing time you deserve, I will grant you a trade or release. All you have to do in any situation where you feel unhappy is let me know and I will work it out so that you are happy.
- I am open to feedback from my GMs and players. I've learned my fair share of things in this game from the forums, other players, and just playing the game, but I'm not perfect. I can and do make mistakes, which is why I am open to feedback. I will do my best to put my team in the best position to win, even if it means swallowing my pride.
- I have integrity. I am a man of my word and will always try to do right by others.
- I absolutely love this game and want to share that with my players. I am currently making each player a custom .gif avatar which includes a helmet, custom made jersey, and team logo (see above link). I want to get my players involved and develop a sense of community. I am serious about winning, but I want to develop good relationships with my players, because this is a community-based game and camaraderie is half the fun. I will also be creating a website in the near future for our team which will feature our favorite plays, depth charts, schedules, and potentially player bios, etc., etc.
- I like to get our players involved. Your player can do as much extra work as he wants to help the team. We always encourage scouting and input towards the game planning. If you want to be more involved in the team, we would have plenty for you to do.
- It will only be a matter of time before higher level players realize what kind of team I am building and come aboard. That means we will be very competitive each season.
- I'm very personable. Not only will I be a great owner towards you, but I'm friendly and easy to talk to. While that may not be important for us winning, it will make your gaming experience that much more enjoyable as we interact.
- We have a cool logo. That should be enough right?
Reasons you might not want to join the team –
- Looking at the team’s record, you’d think that this team is destined for failure next season. That isn’t necessarily true. I took over this team when it was already 3-10. I hope you understand that anything that happened in season 2 has nothing to do with this team. Season 3 is a clean slate for this team.
- If you think the internet is serious business and feel the need to insult others, be rude, disrespectful, or otherwise disruptive to the team, this definitely isn’t the team for you. I need team-first guys who are respectful and sociable.
