well you're clearly still more involved than half of the league despite your lack of time and yet decided to step down... not commendable at all! :lol:

why the fuck is he not being active?

And for that I feel badly. Did not anticipate life getting so busy when I joined the league. I started a Masters program in January and have two young boys at home - that takes up 99.9% of my time currently. Things will settle, I assure you.

Will get my pick in and look at the offers that have been sent to me recently. Again, my apologies.
It's commendable that you keep assuring us rather than just stepping down. You also didn't miss your pick so that works in your favour as well..
you may have spoken too soon about that :-?

He has 15 min, I'm sure he has a bunch of GMs trying to trade their players for the pick.

He just PM'd me saying he's making the pick so he's around.

For me, the decision to leave could have waited until the beginning of the regular season as the league is slow and not much to do. I am going back to work on-site on June 15th in my full new capacities, which is when it will start getting crazy... I thought it best to leave the new guy/gal a full off-season to work his team instead of just jumping into a team come October. I'll still be around for Booboo (really!) to consult as needed on trades.

Ya being late just meant other GMs could start picking, you could still make your selection late.

Made my decision a little easier, was 50/50 on Ohgren or Bichsel.

Good to know, thanks. That is who I was debating between as well.

I don't think there's a magic formula as to how much time you need to spend here or on the league in general. If you're on here everyday...don't be critical of someone who's not. We all don't have the same amount of free time.

I don't think we'll ever have 32 GMs who will be active everyday. I think you just want people who have fun and handle their business and aren't impossible to get a hold of if you want to offer them a trade.

I'm super-active here but I'm not as active in other leagues I'm in. There's not enough time in my day to do all this stuff...just need to find a balance. There's a fine line between something being a hobby and when it becomes a chore.

Likely trading out here, just waiting for confirmation from the other GM

Booboo is a username i always use, so it's easy to remember. Basically a play on my last name and originally given to me by an old friend who passed as a teen. My way of remembering him I guess.

Name is Marc though, spelled the proper way :D
