Good Post, JB...There certainly is more to life than TSN/SOM...Use it as an opportunity to do some things you don't get to do when glued to one's screen. :lol: :wink:

I think we have 2 camps. 1) Be patient and tell TSN and Bernie how happy we are at their efforts, and 2) This is terminally ridiculous and we deserve compensation for such a major inconvenience.

While I at first was a #1 I have now switched to a #2. I have purchased my last team if we don't all get 1 free team for every team we have active now. For me that means 2 free teams. For others it could be 10-20-30 free teams. THAT IS THE LEAST WE CAN GET!!!!

Businesses are only held accountable by our pocketbooks. Do NOT reward their poor planning with more cash until they offer us something in return for our patience. If this goes on much longer I'd like a refund for the 2 teams I have now that I'll end up abandoning.

CREDITS

Postby buckaroo banzai » Sat Feb 25, 2006 10:55 am

I couldn't get access to the site and all my teams have "select pitcher" for my starters for Friday nights games, and the games still have not run (10:45am EST). I would think TSN would give each member that has atleast one team playing a credit for the inconvenience, this would be a fair way to compensate us for their mishandling of service to us.

Is the main problem because Paul Allen either did or will sell the Sporting News as a company or is it karma left over from the NFL going on strike soon??

Christ I swear if I have to hear one more time how that pompous idiot Penngray started the Tour and built his draft Website (which I have used TWICE) I think I'm going to scream. Heads roll? Yeah, that's a terrific idea, let's get Bernie fired a month after he was finally hired full time to help us. Yeah, yeah, sure, you could do a better job. I for one THANK GOD that the license is in the hands of TSN and not this idiot.

Otherwise we'd be hearing how priveledged we are to play "his" game every time someone disagreed with him. Newsflash to Penn, NOONE CARES.

Bernie this certainly sucks and maybe next time you'll be able to learn from this mistake, but don't fret, most of us out here are in your corner, and know that it's just a matter of time before you find the bug. As someone else once said in a couple days this will be all forgotten.

Thanks for your hard work, and for being here for us.

Bernie, a couple of things

Postby Leo / loob » Sat Feb 25, 2006 10:58 am

1. Get that 8th cup of coffee, especially if you plan on reading Doug's post'.
2. How is Andrey's finger(s)??
3. Thanks for the tid-bit of info on 2006!

4. HOW ARE THE TWINS DOING? Most on here forget that you have newborn twins at home. I'm sorry that something so drastic has taken you away from them for an extended period like this.

5. TSN, I hafta question why this was planned for a Thursday nite, Friday morn.? Just didnt make sense at the moment as per say to the customers availablility to internet access. There are still some on here that only have internet access at work.

6. Get that 9th cup of coffee, hell, past 4 cups, what can it hurt?

Well, good luck with the "upgrades :roll: ". And remember, I'm in the same boat as Michael and Doug with the # of teams we have runnning. When this gets going again, I will have 150 games to gather.

Mr. Leo

You guys who are complaining and making demands for compensation need to get a life. SOM is [b:c3145ce8ee]entertainment[/b:c3145ce8ee], and that's all it is.

I've been playing this online game without interruption since it was first released, and have never seen a breakdown in service anywhere close to this. That's pretty good for a 4+ year run, 24/7, 365 days a year.

[b:c3145ce8ee]Thanks Bernie[/b:c3145ce8ee]. I very much appreciate what you are doing, your patience with your customers, and your efforts to keep us informed.

Guys-if you don't think Bernie is totally committed to doing everything he can to help us out and fix this, then you probably bet that Bodie Miller and Hendrick would keep their mouths shut.
Don't you guzye remember how many extra hours Bernie put into STRAT even when he was a part time guy? I have worked with the guy enough to know that to question his integrity and decisions would be negligent to say the least.

I would sense that the problem is something well beyond Bernie's control or it would have been fixed along time ago (Could even be a TSN IT issue, who knows).
Until we know what is going on, bashing Bernie is not the solution to the problem and is pointing fingers without knowing the target or the reason.
