im not trying to signal anyone out, but i mean, we have 24 teams, and 24 gms who have all responded to e-mails or msn messages, but, no one does shit on these boards.
it's very disappointing for all the damn work i put into this site and this league, and all the work i've put in (not trying to cry here, but really) and it seems like there is ZERO interest at this point.

I voted I don't know. Its hard to tell as usually in most FHL leagues boards die during the off-season. Issue is not sure I see the GMs here or people who will make this more active during the season. Don't know....

I voted we need to do something different, for the simple reason, i've been very busy with school just starting up and hockey preseason in my junior league, but also with a lack of activity on the board, it had led me to shy away from posting stuff, so i think it is a collective thing with all the gm's, so firing people wouldn't be the answer, because earlier on the past month or so, we seemed to have very committed and passionate gm's. The simple fact would be to start either the pre-season or season soon, once we have to send in lines, and check how our teams are doing, it will create more interest for all of those who participate in SINHL. I understand the frustration on Anthony's part who has put in a big effort in making this a successful and enjoyable league, so it's our turn to show him we apreciate it and once the season starts up be active! So my suggestion is by doing something different, simply stated, is to start up preseason games so guys can play around with line combos and get interested in the teams they have built

Over longer periods of time you will see whos really active and whos not, its not really a big deal, not every team in the NHL has a super dedicated active gm either... stuff like that is going to happen so as long as most teams are active when games start its all good, go ahead with preseason cuz like shane said then we'll be naturally more interested with sims, then making lines, then trades will come, and everything gets rollin... ::)rollin rollin wat!

I dunno why but I post on the boards & so do a few other gms but it def seems like I'm talking to the same 4 or 5 guys whether its trades or whatnot. I've never done this before & its been pretty cool for me so if this is "bad" for a sim league I'm stoked for when the other gm's get their shit in order. And fwiw, I appreciate all the effort put into running this shit. I can't imagine the time & energy you put in so ill just say thank you for it. Side note, preseason is a good idea imo

Yes I'd say once the season starts things will pick up and the inner post-whore in all of us will return. Seriously right now there isn't much to do ( the prediction thread is nice but I don't want to vote for every position, 1-12) most GMs have gotten their roster where they want it and are waiting to see how they do. Once the panic mode hits trade blocks and other discussion will increase. Thanks to all involved for the saving and running of this league. If it wasn't for Anthony's (and others) sincere desire to keep this thing going then Mitch would have to go to another league and figure out how to trade all his draft picks and prospects again.

Side note, preseason is a good idea imo These are always the best GM's to have IMO. New guys who haven't been in a keep league focus more on that league, since they haven't been in one yet. While guys from other leagues may be more interested in, well their other leagues. The only problem is you have to find new guys that are know a lot about the NHL so that they don't get fleeced in trades. Maybe its because it's that time of year, however the SIT didn't bring too much buzz.

the sit is what i thought would show gms to be active - but i failed at it so it failed.
pre-season is going to start on monday. im going to create a schedule tomorrow and post it to start on monday.
i want to see lines from every team by sunday night. i really hope this makes my email box full from 23 other gms.
thanks for those who replied, and those who voted thus far.
i figured by sending the e-mail i'd have more than 8 votes, but for now, it's not a huge issue.

It's the offseason...what do you expect? My team has been set for 2 months now and there isn't anything to talk about until the preseason starts.
