Site changes

Sorry sizemore. I thought that we need a non transparent background to be able to read the posts better. The bright lights part distracted from the text. Though the sidebar looks better.

Also, whipped up a banner.

Flashy Lights!

Like the new banner, wish it was bigger though, not sure if it can be but I think it would look better if it was spread across the whole top.

Michael said...

yeah, I'll see what I can do.

Crash said...

Agreed on the Big Mike, and I'll see if I can edit the background photo so we can see the whole light fixture...

Michael said...

Im not sure about the lights. Like it looks weird cause the blue is a different shade. Sizemore, you can look int he patterns for something.

Like, if the blues matched on a pattern, like my blog, it would be good.

Crash said...

Okay, I tried something new.

Better? Worse? You tell me.

Big Mike said...

No I like the lights 10 times better, I thought it looked nice anyways.

Crash said...

Oh alright, I'll switch it back...

Crash said...

Hey, does the white text work better against the background...? I really hate making the background non-transparent as you can hardly see the text...

Crash said...

Actually, nevermind - it doesn't lol

Michael said...

It doesn't match the side bar, and looks lame.

TC said...

Why...? Is the background black?

Big Mike said...

Idk now, I'm kind of missing the old layout just because it had been the same forever but maybe I'll get used to this.

Michael said...

Still dont like the changes.

Crash said...

Then do something about it... you guys have the power to change these things you know...?

Michael said...

Dude, you changed it from what I had.

Crash said...

Yeah, I changed it cause all 3 guys who commented on it originally liked it.

Big Mike said...

Woah, lol I like it, I was just saying I kind of missed the old one, it really doesn't matter to me which one we use though its not that big of a deal.

TC said...

Either go with the lights, or go back to what it used to be. That's what I think, it looks like crap now.

Crash said...

Oh i agree it looks like crap now. The lights are cut off with the non-transparent background (but that's what our founder who only seems to care about what the site looks like wanted.)

Michael said...

The likes look shitty either way.

I'm kinda surprised you care Mykl, because well the last post you've made commenting on the actual football part of this league was... well... dropping Kordell Steward because you had to. I thought you were gonna be "more committed" this year?

Michael said...

Well I thought it was going to be good, then I just found it boring, and would rather do concepts instead of follow a league I really had no control in. I wanted to leave, but realized it would ruin the legacy of the league having Droozer move the season one champs.

I didn't want a league i started to look like a shitty myspace.

droozer said...

"I wanted to leave, but realized it would ruin the legacy of the league having Droozer move the season one champs." Thanks bigshot. Cause you know there's a whole lot of legacy in an on line sim league.

Crash said...

Really, if you cared so much about your Aces "legacy" then you wouldn't abandon your team.

TC said...

Good point

Kevin said...

Droozer, I would suggest you stay out of this, since you're not even in the league. I don't know if you have noticed, but we've done just about all we can to keep you out of the MLF. Sizemore, get over it. It's the background for the website, not a big deal. If Mykl does or does not want to leave the league, that's his choice.

Crash said...

Not really, I don't have anything against Mykl, but I'll definitely move to kick him out of the league if he wants back in.

That said, Mykl hurled an insult at droozer. He's got a right to respond. Oh, and I've been an advocate of droozer being in the league for awhile now. We've just gone down in the order of guys we had already asked.

And Kevin, I don't have a problem with an objection to the website layout, I have a problem with a guy who hasn't made a single comment all season long trying to tell us what to do with "his league" and keeping "his team's" legacy when he doesn't even seem to care about "his league" and "his team."

Kevin said...

Regardless, Mykl still owns this league. However active he is, is his own decision. Mykl created this league, so no matter what you think about how he chooses to manage his team, you, as well as everyone else in the league, has no right to kick him out. Besides, he isn't the only one who isn't active around here. Beast Mode, Burmy, and BJ don't do a thing.

Crash said...

At least Beast Mode did something to change the league... like suggest we each have our own playbooks again.

And whatever Kevin, if you want to side with your deadbeat "owner" of the league, that's fine by me. Maybe the name of the league with many of these teams in it won't be called the MLF next year.

Crash said...

Oh, and in BJB's case he, you know, actually shows he still follows his team by doing something as simple as recommending that Mike chooses his playbook.

Look, it's the simple things like making a comment about your team that's nice. Sometimes I feel like the time Mike and I take to sim these games goes unappreciated by some guys here. It'd be nice to return to Season 1 form (or the form from before this fiasco).

I wish droozer was in the league right now, 'cause you know he actually seems to care.

Crash said...

And if you wanna get technical, Mike and me are the only two guys that "do anything" around here. Plus, Mike and I are commissioners around here (a post which Mykl's pretty much resigned, as you can see in the "Contacting the Commissioners" part of the blog) so yeah, makes sense the only two guys who "do anything" should have the power right?

Kevin said...

Actually no. You are not a commissioner, you just sim games. Just because you took Mykl's name off of the contact the commissioners section and put your own up there doesn't make you a commish and him not.

Michael said...

Sorry, i slept over at a friends house. But seriously?

Sure, I don't comment but I read all the posts. There's really nothing I could do anyway. I've made one trade the whole time, because I like where my team is at, and I never make trades on anything. Does burmy post? Cause it seems like you just wanted to go after me, but let him slide.

Crash said...

I'm not letting Burmy slide at all here. The thing that pisses me off is that you don't seem to care about the football aspect of the league (i.e. calling out us and our "silly sim leagues" and stating in this thread that you "found it boring") but care about pimping your Pioneers concept and screwing with our nice league that you've abandoned.

And Kevin, why didn't you object to me becoming a commissioner when Mike said "If I stick around I will definitely step down as a commish. Sizemore is obviously the most committed right now so he deserves it anyways" or when TC said "I think we need to elect a new co-commish, I nominate you sizemore. Anybody else think this needs to be done?" Why do you suddenly have a problem with me becoming a co-commissioner now? You should've voiced your concern earlier, sorry.

Michael said...

I was asked to do a concept, and I did. So what? I still read every post, just don't comment. I'm off enjoying summer, driving around, and going to the gym.

Season 2 pretty much ruined it for me. Like how I was all excited then it took like a long time to finish and I kind of lost interest.

I'm still with my team, and this league. Even if I'm not a commish, its still lame that you call me out for being an ass when you're being one yourself.

Crash said...

I'm not sure how someone who called this league boring and said he wanted to leave suddenly reads every post. I'm just baffled right now that you cared soo much about the site layout of a "boring, silly sim league" that you "wanted to leave".

Michael said...

It's boring because for someone who can't sim games just has to check updates every like two weeks or whatever. Like theres really no filler.

I read every post too. When I updated the 32 in 32 on my blog every day, I'd see there was a new post, then read it. Just didn't comment.

I wanted to leave, then was convinced otherwise by Mike and TC. I'm trying to get into it, ferreal.

IMO You're over reacting :P

Crash said...

Eh alright, let's move on from this fiasco and try to move on.

Truce? :P

Crash said...

And please beat Atlanta for me this week in the ULB

:D

Michael said...

Deals.

TC said...

Get a room, you two.

Big Mike said...

Damnit, I missed the most entertaining fight ever while I'm at a friends house for 2 days.

Crash said...

Yeah Mike, get your ass simming some games!

:P
