CAG Madden 09 League - LEAGUE CLOSED...I'M DONE

Bummer. To bad all the leagues end up closing. Thank goodness for Azu! It must be really frustrating to run a league. To many unplayed games and I know its hard enough trying to get just your own game lined up and played each week. I'm off 5 days a week and I still have a had time syncing up with my opponent. I agree with N8 that the game is nerve wracking. It favors some teams...Dallas, Giants, Patriots. I play as Carolina most of the time and I get some stupid sh*t happen to me about every game I play.

That being said I want in if anyone starts another league.
 
You know for those bashing him, they're free to copy the OP, get the schedule from n8 then find 1 replacement for the bills.
Then see how much fun it is running a league.
I would do it, but I'm already running a league.
 
:rofl:

Azu, Matt Young you 2 are class acts. Seriously you are solid people that are a joy to have around.

But I think they have the right to bash on Nate for this betrayal. He makes a league, decides who's in and who's out, pushes how "serious" this league is....hell he even had "application" to get in. On top of this he was giving many other members shit for their various reason to leave.

Then out of no where he quits not because of something legit like his xbox broke or he simply doesn't have the time. He quit because the games don't go the way he wants them to? Complaining like a child about "Sacks, fumbles and apparently "getting fucked over on the restart" I can only assume is him just loosing after restarting a game.
(funny how no one else complained of such ideas in Jagged Edges league or Azu)

Then rightfully so he catches some flak for bailing and he stomps away with his chest all puffed out?

He wouldn't catch so much flak if he wasn't a absolute fucking dick about it from the get go. Leagues don't work sometimes....everyone here gets that, Jagged's didn't work and we all let that go easy. Azu was starting to get bogged down we adjusted and are still trying and we let that go.

After making people jump through all those dumbass hoops and grilling people about why they wanted to play in his league he bails on it not a quarter of the way through without a single warning? :roll:

[quote name='n8rockerasu'] There will be no bi-polar'ness in this league. I'm serious. Why do you want to play?[/quote]

[quote name='n8rockerasu']ALSO...EVERYBODY READ THE MISSION STATEMENT. I'm not adding anybody else until I know you've read it.[/quote]

[quote name='n8rockerasu']I'd just like to remind everyone again that applications to join this league without having read the Mission Statement in the OP will be ignored. This is 3rd grade logic at its finest. You ignore me. I ignore you.[/quote]

[quote name='n8rockerasu']Some of you are apparently not reading the mission statement closely enough.[/quote]

[quote name='n8rockerasu']Yeah, people, this is not a request, it's a REQUIREMENT. IF YOU WANT TO BE IN THIS LEAGUE, YOU MOST READ THE MISSION STATEMENT IN THE OP AND MAKE SURE I KNOW THAT YOU'VE READ IT.

I'm going to put 100% effort into this league, and the last thing I need are members that are going to half ass it. Skimming is not reading. You're missing something.

After all of this big boy talk a month later.

[quote name='n8rockerasu']Bumping this thread to let everybody know I'm officially done with this game. I'm sick of playing every game in the snow. I'm sick of being the victim of kickoff fumbles. I'm sick of button lag sacks. I'm sick of having a good game going, then getting disconnected, and then getting IMMEDIATELY fucked over on the restart. I haven't enjoyed a game in over 3 weeks. I'm just done.

Let somebody else take over the league. I just don't have the patience or energy for this shit anymore.

Yeah N8ate good job with your 100% effort idea. It seems like the only thing you do with any consistently is run away when anyone even looks at you funny. "Wha...? Since I cant put everyone on ignore I am going be a lurker so I never have to own up to screwing people over."

:roll:

Wow, ya know. Normally, something like this would bother me...if it came from someone with an ounce of intelligence. Get back to me when you can grasp the concept of how the number "8" works within my name "Nate". I've had kindergarteners pick up on it quicker than you.

And talking about betrayal is a little melodramatic don't you think? You act like I slept with your mother or something...wait...did I? The fact remains, I'm not the only person capable of running this league. I've seen nobody step up and say they'd be happy to take it over. And why? Because it's a shit ton of work!

Organize schedules, update records, PM people reminding them to play their games, STILL have multiple teams that are 2+ weeks behind, but try to move forward each week anyway. Top that off with a game that you're not even enjoying anymore, and let's see you do it? You want to talk about someone who runs their mouth. Where's your contribution Sood? Sure, you may get your games played, but you fly off the handle at every person who looks at you funny.

If this league had been running flawlessly, with people not missing games, and me not having to chase them down to beg them to play, yeah, I would have felt a hell of a lot more guilty about bailing, and probably wouldn't have done it. But I'm sorry. This league was no different from Azu's and Jagged's. There were still people who didn't put forth much effort to contact their opponents to set up a time to play. And then it's on me to contact BOTH of them, to try to get them to communicate. I just didn't want to do that anymore.

I don't need to justify myself to you, but I do feel bad for how it went down for the actual people in this league. I was just starting to find that between the two leagues I run, I was spending more time on CAG than I was playing games...let alone doing other things in my life. And I'm sorry, but it's just not worth it. And money has been pretty tight lately (which is nobody's business). Anybody who wants to rip on me for it, go ahead. If you really don't have anything better to do, then I feel sorry for you. But I'm not going to join you in your mission to compete in the Special Olympics. This is the last I'm saying about it.

Seriously, n8, don't worry about it. It was fun while it lasted, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to take over running a league. Thanks for your work, and enjoy whatever you get with the credit!

Much truth there. I must admit I'm a little irritated
 
:rofl:

"Welcome to ignore soodmeg....after I respond to your every post."

"I am going back to being a lurker......oops soodmeg is talking I have to come back for that."


Try to distract all you want away from the fact at hand. You talked like you were tough shit and then bailed on your own creation crying about how the madden world is just sooooo unfair.

Dont try to hide behind this bullshit pathetic cover of how much work it was and woe is me its so hard. No one made you start the league you volunteered for it. Then you imposed yourself as some high ranking league guru judging all the other members with your dumbass rules.

Jagged closed his league also and no one batted an ill will towards him. Only difference is he had legit reason to do so. You on the other hand turned the league into your own "cool kids club," then closed it a month later because you think the game is unfair?


:rofl:

All you are is that kid who only gets picked because you brought the ball and right on cue 10 min into the game you start crying about how everyone isnt playing right. So to get back at everyone you take your ball and go home.

You once said told me I showed you my true colors. Well.....N8TE you just showed yours.
