Staff DT Forum Updates?

[ogron]

Are there any plans to do Hot or Nots, Playoff bracket updates, stats, or anything? The forum seems extra dead lately -- not even boxscore inputs!

Those kind of things always seem to add to the atmosphere, league heading into finals and would be great to see!

not hot this week, claus in ever ship he ever played.

ill predict the future and say not hot this week claus in any ship he played.

everyone else hot, for both weeks.

Anyone is allowed to do hot or not, it's not just a staff thing. Just for the record.

Especially since the staffers doing that stuff get flamed for "not doing it right". I'm more curious why there seems to be zero player interest to talk about stuff in the draft league. You'd think there'd be some drama around an event like this.

i know you like the comfort and safety of playing on a stacked all-star team against squads with no chance of matching your roster, but i find this league a lot more balanced and competitive and gets more people involved and playing in leagues/ships they wouldnt usually play.

7 of the 8 squads had 10 or more evens and was close right til the final week. also the shortened season compared to the dragged out TWL and involved during the week and weekend really kept things interesting.

the format keeps everyone involved til playoffs, unlike TWL where alot of squads (epidemic, spastic, etc.) die off mid-season and the league becomes alot more esoteric when playoff chances diminish.

i don't see why you'd look down on it

I've had some things going on IRL the last 2 weeks, so I haven't felt right posting Hot or Not's without being around at the games. A few of the other staffers involved have recently gotten promotions and are even busier now. Feel free to step up anyone. The scores are all on the TWDT website (although best of 3 makes it harder to figure them out). I will probably write a Finals preview at some point this week.

As to the lack of trash talk... Jaa and Draft left a pretty big vacuum there.

alright ill do it, i didn't see some of the games in the other bracket but ill ask around and check the site
