[quote name='xhoochiex']any heard from matt? Can't get ahold of him and never got to
Fight[/QUOTE]
[quote name='Matt Young']Uh, no... I posted in here 3 days ago asking about availability for all my opponents. Shotgunshine replied right away, and we got our fight in. Kburns never responded, and you never said a word til posting last night during or right before the Kings game that you'd be available til 9. You can't wait til the night of the deadline and then say you "can't get a hold of me".[/QUOTE]
People should definitely be keeping up with the thread, but it's understandable for a post to get missed. PM's should be exchanged...and definitely well before the day of the deadline. Communication is a two way street though.
Matt did at least ask for xhoochiex's availability in the thread. xhoochiex says he couldn't get ahold of Matt, but I want to know what methods of "getting ahold of him" he tried. We'll push the deadline back a day, so if you guys can get the fight in before tomorrow, that's fine. Let's not make this more difficult than it is.
[quote name='Rylin210']He's Actually going through some personal life problems at the moment, and hasn't been free or able to get to his xbox, sorry, thought i PM'ed you, he's gonna h ave to forfeit, sucks cause it makes me look bad as he was my friend, but i apologize
I could however, take over his character seeing as how i was gonna start a HW fighter anyway if thats cool with people[/QUOTE]
Sorry to hear about his problems. You can't just fill in for him though. That's not how this works (you're free to create a second fighter though). Since he hasn't even posted in the thread yet, he'll be on hiatus until he can demonstrate that he has the time to be active. Everybody here has a life and responsibilities. You either make time or you don't.
I appreciate you bringing new people to the league, but in the future, let them sign up for themselves. The official Madden league has had some "friend of a friend" members, and it leads to the active guy being a secretary and having to relay messages, and it just becomes a big mess. As I've said, if people can follow the thread and communicate for themselves, they're welcome to be here.
