The in crowd

The in crowd

I am not in the in crowd when it comes to SOM. Does this mean I will not be able to take part in the Mock 1986 draft, and the free 1986 season?

yes Bernie hand selects just a few to participate :roll: :roll: :roll:

It will be up when it is up. Sometimes things are delayed beyond what we can do, when anything is released Bernie will post on the message boards as well as update the SOM main page. Until then you just have to wait.

FWIW, if you read the ATG page, you will see he mentioned they were having system problems and the mock drafts should be up later tonight or tomorrow morning.

If you would please stop with the in crowd BS you're trying to perpetuate, no one rejects anybody. It will be available to everyone, WHEN IT IS READY.

If the in crowd is BS, how did you know all of this, and I did not? Smart guy!And another thing. How come I see people signing up to be in a free 1986 league, and when I tried to sign up they told me ,buzz off the league is full.You should respond the same way in e-mail as you would face to face. You would not take that tone with me if I was standing in front of you!

rmilter, you need to chill. There will be plenty of leagues for you to join. When the new cards come out the # of leagues available to join will be plenty. There will be auto-draft, live and theme leagues for you to pick and choose. Just be patience and have some fun.

No one told you to buzz off...they just said the league was full. There was a sign-up list in the link, with 12 names already signed up when you asked to join.

As far as anyone knowing about the '86 league, we all read the same posts Bernie posts for EVERYONE.

Everyone's email responses to your rants have been astonishingly patient, considering your attacks on just about everyone who plays this game.

what the hell you're mad because we don't let you join a league THAT WAS ALREADY FULL??? Dude, too bad, you can't just jump into something because you want, chill. dude, you don't understand. That sign up was a pre-mature (i.e. [u:0309a478c9]before[/u:0309a478c9] its released). Just an understanding among the first 12 to sign up to do a league together, instead of with random people who join. 86 game is NOT released yet.

There are private leagues all the time formed this way, for instance we did a 2008 draft months ago, even though the cards were not released. Does that mean we are playing the 2008 game yet, no, just in preparation for it.

Because I read the boards, not just one part, I read the SOM, ATG, even 70's and 80's, strategy, individual (for the threads I take part in). Like I said, f you read the sticky about the 86 leagues in the ATG forum, instead of in the main SOM forum, you will see Benrie's message. It has nothing to do with being part of the in crowd, it has to do with having free time on my hands.

that part is funny because if you knew me, you would know that isn't true at all. Just ask my wife, she gets so mad at me all the time for being an a-hole to people.

you misunderstood me

Postby RICHARDMILTER » Wed Feb 20, 2008 7:08 pm

I was NOT mad that I could not get in a league that was already full. I was not mad about anything! I was just wondering if EVERYONE WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO PLAY, OR JUST A SELECT FEW? When I inquired about the league I was told it was full and nothing else about having a chance in the future. That is all, end of story!So have fun!GOOD LUCK TO ALL!
