Mr. Wednesday · 03-26-2005, 01:55 AM

Not for long.

Edit: Though for longer than I thought, we're not playing them for another week or so.

Finally, one of my candidates wins something. You just can't go wrong with voting for a team named after a kind of beer...

Woo! We're #4. I'm even more impressed by my ability to get less 1st place votes than CW, who I beat Wednesday.

Airhog · 03-26-2005, 12:02 PM

I signed up. My school is the Fairbanks Alaska Remidal Tech School. or FART for short. Our team name is the Stinkies, and our mascot is the brown stain.

Did anything happen with the recruiting?

Coffee Warlord · 03-27-2005, 09:05 PM

Check your private messages on the game, you'll see.

This recruit did not seem very interested in our school. Perhaps our resources would be better spent elsewhere.

That's a Good Initial Sign, though you can get better in the first week if your boy REALLY likes you.

You got a problem with Green Bay?

There were a few guys interested, and I've only got one scholarship to give. If I can keep on my current winning ways, maybe I'll get some more interested.

That's quite impressive if even the low recruited ones like you.

Katon · 03-28-2005, 10:26 AM

Definitely. Forget the light ones; most of my medium recruits were politely disinterested.

WSUCougar · 03-28-2005, 10:41 AM

So much for the #1 ranking...

Coffee Warlord · 03-28-2005, 12:42 PM

I'm prolly gonna double the amount of 'feedback' messages before the next update, FYI.

I'm just not happy with its pieces of flair.

And in Good News For Me, the system has been up and totally automated for an entire 'game week' now. No slowdowns, timpestamps on full sims have been averaging 5 minutes, looks like I've got this sucker nailed down.

bosshogg23 · 04-03-2005, 08:13 PM

Coffee Warlord, SI posted a message about each of us having trouble "accepting" challenges from each other. Neither of us see the challenge button.

Other than that everything is great(except I dont have a signed recruit).

Yeah I saw that- best player in the recruits and he's gone in week 3. Yet of course, all of my players sit there like oafs with the "but it will require more work to get him" or worse.

I think he said W00t, not to be confused with wOOt.

What's up with people voting for generics for the top 25? There's more than enough human-controlled teams to go around.

I had a guy jump from that quote straight to committed. I'm not sure how many steps there are between the two, but the jump can be made.
