Thread: 2017-18 GM Game - General Discussion Thread
PSA for everybody in the game.

Obviously, everybody isn't going to get along with everybody in this game. That's just the way it is in life. It's understandable that you want to express your displeasure with certain people. But it has to stop. It's gotten to the point where people are resigning because they can't take the teasing of OTHER people. Not even themselves being teased, and they still want to resign because of it. It's a damn shame. At this point where we're struggling to find competent GMs, having one resign over this is an embarrassment to all guilty parties, including myself. You don't have to like the people in this game, but please show some respect and not acting like a 7 year old. It creates such a dark shadow over our fun game that it isn't worth it trying to get a few laughs here and there.

DavidBooth7, you are probably the most guilty party involved. You've gotten banned by the MODs, yet you still come back and tease. It's got to stop. There is zero point in doing this. You are the "ringleader" of the teasing. If you stop, others will follow suit. For the benefit of the game, stop.

Please, no more teasing in this game. That goes for everyone. Almost everybody has done it at some point, so everyone is contributing to the problem.

rangersandislesfan, I owe you an apology. I have teased you in the past, and I'm sorry for that. There was no good that came out of my doing, and it won't happen again.


Thanks,

krakowitz

Thread: 2017-18 GM Game - Messages to the MODs
I can't believe that I would eventually agree with DirtyDangles but what gives a user on this site the ability to bully, harass and frame another user? How many infractions and monthly bans can a person receive before being permanently banned from this website? I'm talking about a one Mr. DavidBooth07. He gets infractions on a regular basis and has bullied (in my opinion) users like RangersandIslesFan. I'm sure you Mods have better things to do then to be on here 24/7 and give infractions for every minor offense. But when a user frames another and tries to create drama on a game meant to be for the enjoyment of others shouldn't that warrant more punishment than a slap on the hand? I'm personally calling out DavidBooth07 because he has been nothing but bad news for this game and this website... the harassment of PaulDunill, the belittling of RAIF and true intent to get users like Brekel and Dangles and various others banned for substantial amounts of time. It makes your life a hassle to deal with him. Why not give him a break to think about his actions :)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>GM Game Community,

The BOE has decided to use their discretion when they believe the GM Game is currently fraudulent. To protect the GM Game community from fraudulent game, the BOE has unanimously decided that from Sunday, October 22, 2017 until Wednesday, October 25, 2017, the GM Game will be in "lockdown mode".

During this time, the BOE will be taking the proper measures to insure that the game is running functionally on Thursday, October 26, 2017.

We ask that no GM Game community post in the GM Game section during the lockdown, or the parties involved will be punished at the BOE's discretion. We also ask that GMs take this time to reflect on their current status of being GM of their team, and to check to make sure that they are not unhealthy prioritizing the GM Game over more immediate issues.

Throughout the lockdown, the BOE will be doing heavy recruiting for AGMs or GMs, depending on the user. If you have any users that you would like to be recruited, please contact the BOE in the Messages to BOE section, or contact one of us through DMs.

To compensate for this abrupt lockdown, the BOE has also decided that, during the month of November, GMs who qualify will be able to exercise five trades, rather than four.

Trust the Process,

phillyjabroni

But i thought it would turn into a more simple game. I think everyone needs to calm down a bit. It's only a game, and it was meant to be for fun, not to have big arguments like this. I want to stay out of this discussion for now, but i feel like i have to say that everyone needs to calm down, as it's only a game, and things are getting a little crazy.</div></div>

If you want to stay out of it, don't make dumb*** comments like this</div></div>

ok, i'm sorry. I didn't know you didn't want me to post that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DavidBooth7</b></div><div>The BOE has also been delaying the inactivity looming in Calgary, the need for a 3rd BOE member, among items.

It's been 2 weeks now since Thornton was last on? I understand phillyjabroni says that he was active every 5 days in v1 constantly, but we're past 5 days now. Calgary needs a new GM. First, where will the GM come from. Would the BOE consider giving Taboo another chance given he's next in line on the seniority list? Or perhaps plNHL who seems to want a job again? If those two are ruled as not ideal (read between the lines there), where does the new GM come from? Jacketsman? Edmonton AGM? Doctor Breakfast? At this point, even if you wanted to kick Thornton out, his replacement isn't ready, which is why the BOE needs to deal with that <em>now</em>.

As for Thornton, I have nothing against him. But 2 weeks of inactivity, where's the line being drawn? How much longer is the BOE wanting to stretch this? Don't you have to at some point say, it's for the betterment to keep things running smoothly by adding the new GM already? Honestly if it was up to me, he woulda be gone by a week ago. But things don't go well when I'm in charge, as we've learnt in the past :cry :laugh

As for the 3rd BOE member, do the current members have anyone in mind? Without the 3rd, it'll be impossible for the BOE to decide on stuff through voting and it'd become problematic. I'd think it's better to have a current GM, if they wish, forfeit their team and join the BOE, as only one of us would have league knowledge, understand the rules already, and be able to make simple connections between stuff that an outsider wouldn't. Perhaps the BOE should pop this question by 5-10 GMs who they'd trust to do this? <strong>Heads up, there's zero chance I'm considering joining the crap show before anyone asks</strong> :laugh</div></div>

Who'd ask?

Thread: JOIN THE GM GAME - AGM'S NEEDED!
I wanted to post this advertisement for users to consider joining the 2019-20 GM Game

You should swing by the "GM Game 2019-20" forum located in the Forums section of CapFriendly.

The way this game operates is having 31 people like you and me, pretending to be fake GMs of each franchise. You'd get to act as if you were in charge of a team. You would negotiate deals with our GMs, make trades, and everything else that happens in real life, that an actual GM would do. There would also be free agency, the draft, expansion, and more during the offseason; in additions to the power rankings released every month.

You would start out as an Assistant General Manager, but you would be a great addition to this fun game. GM spots open up as GMs are fired/leave, and AGMs would take over their spots.

If you have any questions, please check out the GM Game 2018-19 forum at: <a href="https://capfriendly.com/forums/gm-game-v3" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://capfriendly.com/forums/gm-game-v3</a>
