Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 9:34 amPosted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 9:48 amI'm really souring on SOM altogether. And no, i'm not complaining about the game at all, I actually think it's getting better every year just as I thought it would be. And it's not that i'm tired of it or bored with it either....it's that I suck at it! It wasn't always the case but these last few months my teams have gone collectively from 70 games over .500 to 14 games over. I'm not doing anything different than I ever have but somehow night after night my teams are losing and I may be the worst loser you've ever seen. It bothers me enough to where I want to give up the game.
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 9:58 amKorkie, my teams have collectively gone from 50 plus to 2 minus..im still enjoying this season more than i have the past 2 and i havent even won any championships yet.... best year for the online game in my opinion was still the first year 2001...
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 10:23 amJames I love this season, more than any year including 01', but it's really frustrating because there are teams i've put together that look awesome on paper and the losses continue to mount. It's not making sense to me....
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 11:16 amKorkie, losing bothers me too, big time. I can't stand to fail at something, or even do mediocre. Hence, I don't play Golf anymore. I echo your sentiments, I'm not bored w/SOM, but I'm not happy that I'm losing this year. :cry:
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 11:54 amKorkie, play more autoleagues because its a good way to build your spirits up!!
Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 2:40 pmNiners, we keep you in the league because you're the commish! ;) Hang in there bud. If you get really desparate, I can hook you up with the JTJ ratings. 8)
Speaking of NLD12, shouldn't be starting to talk about that? Are we going to do another one this year? Are we going to use the same format? I know there was some sentiment for trying a $120 mil cap. I also *think* Semper will be back soon. Anyone hear from him? I sent him a note a week ago, but... nothing.

Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 8:58 pmSorry to crash in here, guys. Hello again!
Jamesgang, they have been waiting since last week for you to load your Barnstormers Season #4 team. The five other leagues have started play. Please check you PTs or the old ATG boards (or even the new ATG boards) for more information from your fellow managers.

Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 11:40 pmthanks Beach and sorry for holding things up.... i wont be able to get my team in until tomorrow night.... i did check the thread last week but thought id been replaced since it looked like all the leagues were running....
Posted: Wed Sep 21, 2005 9:22 amHey Beach, good to hear from you again!
Another frustrating thing about this season for me has been having a virtually even run differential (-1) and yet being 11 games under .500. Again, that just makes no sense.
