    I guess the reduced schedule, and lift of max / min games played rules still can't help some of these people get it together? If people are just going to stop playing the game once they're not going to make playoffs, what is the point of playing in the first place? Play out or don't play at all.

    Second best overall team in the league had to forfeit the 8pm game last night. It's not just because of teams not making the playoffs. It's mid summer, other leagues are going on, and it's the end of the 12 cycle.

    Some teams aren't even trying to play anymore, look at OTT.

    Yeah OTT seems to have just thrown in the towel this week or something. Disappointing.

    We called a forfeit on NJD. Normally as everyone knows we wait extended periods just to get the ggame in. But when
    People want to chirp in the lobby and not give actual answers or contact us letting us know what's going on I'm not going to let my team have to deal with that garbage

    if you can't commit to the leagues you are in because of other league commitments, gtfo.

    Cant commit to a league my team has played in 71 games I've played 35. Sorry I think playing in half a teams games counts as committed. and Ive played more games on my team then anyone else.

    I'm more surprised that management has opened and discussed this stuff in the public forums. Looks counter productive to me and just as damaging as the point being made.

    I'd expect a thread like this from a player and rightfully a fair assessment and discussion for one to bring up. But how do we justify management posting here instead of the official area designated for these types of concerns?

    Freddy,
    Thanks, it's a shame that people can't keep simple commitments just because they aren't winning. This is a reflection of what kind of character and class people have. Sure it's only a video game but in the same sense, people need to be men of the words and least finish what they started without down playing things by saying "I have better things to do", "It's not important, I don't care"
