[quote author=Ralphis link=topic=791.msg8124#msg8124 date=1358039217]<br />[quote author=Ten link=topic=791.msg8121#msg8121 date=1358038265]Truth be told, I no longer have the desire to actively participate in the league. I do care about the IDL, I&#039;ve been here since Day 1, but I made a [b]huge[/b] mistake accepting that captain position. I honestly thought I&#039;d have more time and motivation to make it through the season, but I simply don&#039;t.<br />[/quote]<br /><br />Translation: I made a commitment to a league that welcomed me back after my shaky and shady history and failed to follow up my simple two month commitment. I say I care about the IDL, but anyone that isn&#039;t blind knows that I clearly don&#039;t since I just screwed dozens of people one week into the season. Thanks guys, back to Skulltag for me!<br />[/quote]<br /><br />I deserve the flak about the IDL. You&#039;re absolutely in the right to hold that opinion of me. You&#039;re obviously free to look at it whichever way you want, but my decision had nothing to do with Skulltag. Ask anyone active over there, I&#039;m not involved with absolutely anything anymore over there. CTF? What&#039;s that? But again, think what you want. This had nothing to do with Doom outside of the IDL.<br /><br />[quote author=dew link=topic=791.msg8128#msg8128 date=1358040172]<br />so you&#039;re a weakling with no backbone and you want to give up. i totally get that, you have a history of that behaviour.<br /><br />HOWEVER<br /><br />why the fuck do you propose those trades? why would you want to create a dump team that&#039;d just forfeit all its games? how arrogant do you have to be to decide by yourself IDL is going to be a 7-team league?<br /><br />FUCK YOU FOREVER.<br />[/quote]<br /><br />I don&#039;t see how a lack of motivation makes me weak. Lazy? Irresponsible? Untrustworthy? Sure, and I accept all of those. But not weak. Weak would be to just not show up for any of my games or make any attempt to communicate with the rest of my team or Bones and leave everyone hanging, wondering what the hell happened to me for the first four weeks until Bones finally decided to dismiss me. But I didn&#039;t want to do that to Bones, or the rest of the IDL, so I bit the bullet, made this thread and went ahead with it now while it&#039;s still early in the season so it has less of a damaging effect.<br /><br />And about the trades - I was trying to be selfless and get them onto better teams who actually deserve them. They didn&#039;t ask for this, I didn&#039;t want to screw them out of playing spots they earned. Destroying a team was never my goal - an unwanted consequence of my decision. However, BBC was in a very fragile state in the first place, it was basically already doomed as it was. Swift was already out the door and Mass had absolutely zero incentive to give two shits, for obvious reasons. If he&#039;s willing to take the captain spot of BBC and pickup ShadowStalker and another FA, hey all the power to him. And also the two players I replaced them with were players who were unlikely to show up anyway, I didn&#039;t just fuck any random players over.
