Like really, this is heartbreaking.

The amount of time and effort especially from Tudy in getting this rookie tourny going which is looking to become a massive success with 9 new teams already, thats at least 54 new players! and as you come to the ensl home page what do you see?

Nothing. Outdated polls about a nations cup which was never finished, news posts which come at 4 week + intervals and not even a tinkle of a mention about the upcoming rookie tourney on the front page.

Im not saying zefram should step down because we know he will clasp onto his throne with his lethargic fingers for as long as possible but i think you should let someone else have a try because, right now zefram, you are the biggest problem to the ns2 competitive community (in the nicest way)

Im sure you work hard behind closed doors but quite frankly its not enough, we need better PR, we need some new ideas, we need activity!!! I think alot of us would settle for an ascii image of 2 skulks having sex once a week, anything but this nothingness...

You guys did an amazing job, I'm super happy that this has worked out so well. Looking forward to seeing these matches

Skyice, after a few years of being involved in the competitive community, I'm glad you're finally contributing something more than just trolly and inane posts in the forums. (in the nicest way)

I do apologize for not making a public announcement on the front page of the NSL. I absolutely commend TAW for putting together this tournament and they do deserve recognition. That said, I did set up the sign ups for your tournament. I did set up the forums for your participants. I did make the connection so UWE would announce your tournament on their select social media, which receives infinitely more views from people outside of our community than this website. And I'll continue to help in whatever ways Tudy asks for.

As for the website, you do realize I have zero control over the content and function other than posts? On top of that, I have no one who is actively working on the website to even provide minor fixes. That Nations Cup poll is from TWO summers ago. I can't even get anyone to fix the broken google calendar widget that provides a schedule for matches.

It's also difficult to move on to the next thing when the current season isn't being completed by teams. Who's responsibility is that? Am I to hound them constantly and babysit people? It's either doling out forfeits or being lenient with the schedule so people can play their games... and I'm in a no win situation with either decision. Complaints arise from both.

Thanks for the kick in the butt and your thoughts though, skyice, I'll keep it under advisement and under my cold icy lethargic fingers.
