SBSL: Season 25

[fishbonex]

this is getting tiresome. Craig, I love your tournament, but you just killed a lot of time players have had in this season alone, never mind the years people spent slowly climbing the ranks, by shutting it down mid-play. Is there any resolution of this in site, besides the demands Craig is putting on Mods? Are there plans for a similar tourney to take its place when/if Craig quits/is perm banned?

[MrBoom]

I've got another round of game invites from ESQuire

Hopefully the League just continues with Anila8 / ESQuire / Ewebasher. They all are doing amazing work. It really is my favourite thing about CC

Craig25 objectively deserved his forum/mail suspensions.

He could take slaps on the wrist like a man - express his dissatisfaction with the Mods in his funny style - Foe and move on.

Off topic spamming, personal attacks, threatening legal action against the wrong mod, mass PMs with 100s of words of abuse disguised as banter. On any community this behaviour will result in a forum suspension.

TeeGee took the piss and apologised. Razorovitch, SoN!c and Craig wind each other up. But it's obvious Craig25's perception will never match reality.

It's a shame Craig's holding the League players hostage yet again

If Anila8 / ESQuire / Ewebasher / softbelly or any other heroes want to continue with a similar venture I would absolutely applaud them and love to take part.

The moderators are working on continuing the event should that happen. We will do everything in our power not to let something that so many enjoy come to an end simply because of one very unstable person.


I see that Craig has decided to once again remove all the S25 tabs off his google sheet, really not sure what that is about except just trying to "punish" the very players he claims to care so much about. Truly childish behavior.

I know it's not the same, but below is a copy of the sheet I made on May 10th with all the tabs still available.

Great news! If only Craig was not so melty these last 6 months. But since he is, lets move forward.

Well, not that I can claim to know precisely what will happen or even what exactly is going on/happened along the way, it seems Midseason Madness is upon us, so an update is in order. I have little perspective for a current look at the tables for obvious reasons. And no, I havent got the energy to dig up even a rough semblance of a current table for 17 teams. Still hoping that something workable comes out of the bruised feelings, egos and general mess the Super Leagues have currently descended into, which I admit I havent had the energy or the mental surplus to keep up with.

Thus I will update the SEAL GOAL adventures a bit as we move into Midseason Madness. They have the most handsome coach by far and also had a quite interesting first half-ish of the season. Untill I can get my hands on some reliable table standings, Im hoping that other teams will chime in with their point scores, recent updates and some banter. Dont be put off by the Tiddler being so damn handsome. As mentioned in the first newsletter Carl is solving the problem of low self esteem by having built a shrine to the Tiddlers amazing handsomeness in the Mogul Stadium itself. Its one of the few things that has no burn damage yet. In any case, if the Premier League players will total their score and their games played, we will have a little bit of information on the Premier League.

As for the progress of the SEAL GOALS, the first newsletter only saw 1 match completed for them, though several results were ticking in and promising very decent points. 2 wins and a draw lined up quickly, then Carl came along and got his balls busted. most of the specifics of that match can be found in the first newsletter. - For this newsletter, it will suffice to say that the Tiddler came back to the Premier League and as promised dispatched Carl the Mouth in short order 3-1

As the latest match before Midseason Madness arrived, The Tiddler Mogul faced off against Uckuki. Uckuki was however late at all 4 venues. In part it can be attributed to very careful driving of the Uckuki Teambus but possibly also to 4 freak road accidents namely 4 seperate incendiary anti tank mines. Upon hearing rumours of foul play, The Seal Goal Press took it upon itself to question the Tiddler about any wrongdoings. He was quoted as saying "What napalm. I dont know nothing about no napalm" which should satisfy anyone that these were freak accidents in no way connected to the Tiddler.
In any case, the SEAL GOALS did the gentlemanny thing and drank a couple of beers waiting for the Uckuki team, then set to work and never looked back. Possibly they should have though, as it was perhaps a few too many beers when the Uckuki Team managed a late Doodle goal thus narrowing the SEAL GOALS win to 3-1.

This makes for 5 completed games for the SEAL GOALS and with 4 wins and a draw it amounts to 9 points and a 1.8 ppg.

From memory noone contends that with just 5 games completed, but several teams have not had 2 games cancelled because of Rest Seasons and 1 or 2 should be at 9 or 9+ points for 6 or 7 games.

It is a bit ridiculous to repeatedly punish the players. Just stay off the forums if stuff upsets you (and to be fair some folks arent being cool) and concentrate on what you do better than anyone Craig running tourneys....please. Or hand it to someone else if your pissed off.

If I wasn't literally performing 3 manager roles right now at a company that's got riding 400% YoY growth while implementing CRM and ERP, adding a facility, headcount, new IT infrastructure etc...all while caretaking for two older ones and sending a wee one into college...I know I've gotten called a name or two when things don't land perfectly. Part of accomplishment is not making good and perfect enemies. If I realistically could, I would offer to help on the spreadsheet side. I can just barely make my turns at the moment.

Craig, you've stressed my little destress oasis....over nothing. You dish it like a Scotsman but take it worse than a sniveling little English girl. Prove me wrong.

I'd like to withdraw please, a time crunch in my personal life combined with the lack of updates leaves me with very little motivation to plsy

I totally agree, I know you put a lot of time and effort in this craig, and made it what it is, but we the players are the ones suffering, please try and keep this going for US the players, with or without you. Just Foe the players you are not getting along with. we see that things got out of hand, and hope after some time away cooler heads will prevail.
