Thanks to everyone for playing this year, I hope you had a great time and learned a little more about the game and its history.

We have big plans for next year, including some great prizes.

Instead of having teams tied to a specific club, next year will have 24 balanced rosters that pay no attention to NBA affiliation. The teams with the best centers get the lowest ranked power forwards and so on. Rosters will be balanced out in an attempt to have the playing field as even and competitive as possible entering competition. Every team will have a top 5 player at one position.

There will be no surprises, all the rules will be known ahead of time. The prime free agents will be available via negotiations, not a draft.

Jamas and I will not be playing next year, we will be the commissioners and lead the judging.

The ATL will follow the GM Challenge, and next year should finish up in early September. if you would like to play or judge next year, please PM me.

Thanks again for playing everybody, hope you had fun,
Sky

This was a difficult game this year due to the unavoidable break, and I think the game suffered a bit from players losing interest and fading out.

However, I personally had a lot of fun with it again this season. Thanks for running the game even when it almost drove you crazy with your Japan prep deadline. Props to Jamas also for stepping in and helping out.

I hope to be around next season for another run. It sounds like it is going to be a great game next year.

ya I have to thank you as well..

I dunno if I have ever seen any online game on any site that has been as complex, well organized and fun.

everything was smooth and you really put a lot of time and effort in it. bow

I have just started my major study, I have absolutely no idea how I get along with it and how my schedule might look like...one thing is for sure, if I have the time, I wouldn't hesitate to somehow contribute as whatever.
