You don't have to apologize, it's not your fault that there are stupid people out there.

aww this is sad. darththienan is a huge part of the admin process and definitely up there with xeris, hazelynut, and d3. =(

I'm only a part-timer... sort of like batman is to the justice league =]

PH - you talk about how CSL pisses you off because managing the people on your team is a pain in the ass. How is that CSL's fault?

I was ranting about the CSL as a league...which doesnt necessarily have to do with how it's run...any problems I have with the people running it was all pretty much covered by the OP.

The CSL isn't just the people who run it...

On another note... I don't think being a coordinator is all that stressful. Just pick your best players and go, tell the bad ones to shut up and get better o.O. Bad players (in terms of people who are bad at showing up), don't play them - if you play them, then you know you'll have to make that extra effort to go wake them up.. It's up to you then, to play them or not.

Other coordinators are not the responsibility of CSL.. we do our best to keep everyone GM (which everyone usually is), but we don't have magical super powers to make them not lag, or make them not jerks. I have no apology for you there, hope you're joking =p.


I try to keep it fun, and telling bad players they can't play makes them lose interest and eventually lose contact period. At one point, we had more than twelve people all active, playing, keeping our school's iccup channel alive and all that. Then week by week as only the good players C- and above get spots, it just stops being interesting for them.

BTW...Dino is our team's best player. He's a very good player, which is why I would make the effort to actually go and kick his ass awake.

I dunno if you're an admin or not, but why the hell would you think it's your fault that other coordinators are douchey? And most of them are perfectly manner and chill.

Of course they'll lose interest. That's what happens to people who don't make the cut and don't have the motivation to get better, right? No offense to them of course, but every sports teams has members who don't get played every game. It's just a part of getting better - everyone gets discouraged at some point, and if you let that stop you, then that's how it goes.

I know Dino's your best player, and I know he's worth physically finding and waking up. Which is why you shouldn't complain that you have to do it o.O. I wouldn't might having someone like Dino on my team (he's chill, too =P).

In that case, drunk comments are always the best~

I can see that, but I've been focusing more on building a group of people who can play together around SC...to have a fun little group of nerds you can play games with, kinda thing.

Last season, I lost contact with over half of my players because of how badly I wanted to get into the playoffs. This season, I'm gonna try to bring at least some of them back and bring in new ones, if possible, and not focus on being so competitive.

We'll see how that goes, lol.
