Posted by Commish on 8/31/2003, 11:39 pm, in reply to "Re: New Rating system" "Who the hell cares about holes (70+ players) on 4th lines !" - I can tell you that when my first or second line center bites the dust for a week or two due to injury, I -damn sure- care about who's backing them up and how well they're going to perform in that absence. If you don't look at the depth of your team, then you're going to pay for it...this is not even arguable. "Also back to it not making sense. IT made perfect sense ! You were only too blind to see it. No one got stronger or weaker that way & the teams stayed the same." - Which is the whole POINT to lowering ratings and then raising some of them back up again. If we don't raise them back for some of the players, then each and every one of us are exactly the same again. "it gives each team improvement space as well as MORE trading cause some dont like having a 77 rated center on their first line. Well Trade for one !" - Uh guy, if we don't restore some of the ratings, 77 centers will be the ONLY things available to most teams. Unless you're going to try and aquire Lemieux or Gretzky, and I can -really- see that happening. So at that point, IF we didn't restore...who are you going to trade for? Another guy with the same ratings on another team? That would almost have a point. "The way it looks now to me is set up so certain teams didnt lose their bullshit ratings - IE: CAPITALS!" - All I can say to this Michael, is that if you really think that I'm going to engineer and entire league restructing around my hockey team, then you need to fix the gas leak in your house. I mean c'mon Michael, you are the same guy who I honestly think believes that you got swept by Calgary because I did it on purpose from some stupid joking ICQ session months back. And following that logic, I also swept out the Sharks too by Calgary, made sure Edmonton didn't get back to the Cup Finals....just so they could lose to Boston in the Finals. Y'know, the same Boston team who beat me. All I can say is this. If you seriously think you lost four straight because of me rigging it, then you need to leave the NEHL immediately. My goal is to run a league that is fun, not sit back and get my personal jollies my fixing fake hockey scores. "I also didnt see everyone agree, only the REAL active ones, on anything." You want me to take inactive silence as a vote? Should I make decisions for the league based on echos in a cave, Michael? Every idea on the board, for the most part, had everyone saying how bad it was. I combined the lesser of the evils and found a solution that WILL WORK if given a chance. Now you're a damn good GM, Michael and I'd like you to stay on. But some form of support would be nice. This roster drop and partial restore is how it's going to happen. If you have ideas on how to better the system once we're up and running with the new rosters, my ears are always open. You haven't even seen the final rosters or tried to work with your team, and you've condemned the entire process. Somehow, that doesn't seem right to me. If you're going to stay on ship (all of you)...at least help us paddle in the right direction, not sit back in the boat and refuse to move.

OK, let's address a few of your statements.
