Primal Optimist Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 the property concept will eventually be understood to be the main issue with updates. it is too easily replicated, at the right time of the year mind you, to consider it proprietary. Just my two cents. Glad we are getting closer to caught up, that is a good thing and glad more of the reigns are being passed around to more people, that too is a step in the right direction. Thanks for all your hard work in the executive, to ALL the executive. Disagreement does not equate to thanklessness. This game rocks and ought to continue rocking it for years..but the idea that it is owned by one or a small group is simply not correct. None the less thanks to Curt for making it, awesome job but we have seen now a few times over that it can't be a one man show, and really takes all 30 of us to make it a great game. at the end of the day it is a fantasy keeper league that relies on the CDC.CA website and pickuphockey.com to exist: so there is nothing proprietary about it. Again, disagreement does not mean that I don't value being here. I won't chirp on about it though, moving on to trying to be a better GM. Thanks for reading. EDIT: On a huge positive note.....It is awesome that this particular league has more or less survived having only two days since early November when the various updates were up to date. That is a great testament to the people we have here for sure. This league is worth protecting and keeping alive, of course. not many leagues, I am sure, would still be this active after the last 3 months. For that I am super thankful!

ActionJax09 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'm confused here. Is there a reason other than lack of free time to do the updates? I'm not complaining but I keep hearing the word property being brought up and I dont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not complaining but I keep hearing the word property being brought up and I dont get it. Sorry guys. I want you guys to know what's going on so your not left to wondering and I'd like to think we can be on the same page. The point here is c2x created the sheets. No small feat. He operated as a one man crew updating for years ( again frankly blows my mind ). He had to leave his role and one person stepped up to take on this job updating while c2x could regroup. Theminister took this on and did so with c2x's blessing. The plan is/was to keep it maintained then pass off to c2x when ready again. Theminister like any of us cannot control his schedule and has been putting time in where he can while being very busy away from CDC. This property that was mentioned is merely this is c2x's work. He and I respect the decision is careful who he handed the " know how " over to as in theminister whom he worked with when he initially started spreading the workload. Understanding this is c2x's and the intention is he takes it on again while theminister also works on updates through his schedule myself and greens man have been taking some of the workload involved as well. Again I don't want to upset anyone or disregard any others help or time but the matter is simply theminister having the time and myself and greens being able to help with the capaheets moving forward. I'd like to think the idea of adding members to be able to keep regular maintenance up and running is a positive if not reassuring. In the same breath others have not been too happy about what's going on or the optics. I don't know what to tell those who may have issue. Please pm me anything anytime. This is one persons creation and we're trying to respect and keep its integrity while spreading the workload as its understood it's not a one man job. Property again simply refers to this being someone's creation, a few members have access to learn and update it and I'm sorry if that offends anyone or makes people feel like they don't matter or are not involved but again like any league maybe one or three people keep things running. The capaheets are so much more than one might think by viewing them. It is property in that you cannot replicate it or good luck trying it's really quite complex until you learn it and that also takes time. Thanks for the questions etc and again I don't really know how to explain this further without making some feel this is wrong. My intention is League first and I want you guys to have an awesome experience and this League can be a lot of fun. I'm not the smartest dude or most active but I as well as others here are trying to get up to speed so we can all just enjoy this thing without hiccups moving forward. I assure you respecting c2x's game and making this an awesome experience is utmost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
