[Round 17], Conditions for this match - WARM

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

You've got a BOG game in you. Just kick a few to BRAB or you'll need witness protection.

On those rare occasions when BRAB misfires there will always be someone to pick up the slack mate.

That's why we're the reigning champions after all!

 

[Dingster]

Wickzki do your thing!!

 

[Robertio]

I was talking about that island off the coast of Norway Svalbard a few days ago. Good video this is about life there if you have about just over half an hour to spare.

It's polar night season there now so the sun will be staying below the horizon until the middle of February. From about mid April to mid August the reverse happens and they have 24 hours worth of daylight.



Despite how inhospitable the environment is there it's still a beautiful place imo.

 

[Dingster]

Irish BlueBagger gave me a good idea.

 

[Tigerturbulance]

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

24 hours worth of daylight that would mess with your head alright mate.

[Tigerturbulance]

1 : .22 {rHFF} - U2tigers upset the marking attempt by Senor M.

upsetting Senor M Bono, talk about going for the low hanging fruit

 

[Irish BlueBagger]

Irish BlueBagger gave me a good idea.

Maybe we might send the Bears to an early end of season holiday there today?

 

[Senor M]

Respectfully, I reckon if it ain't broken, don't try to fix it.

I’d say the league is broken.

As of 3pm AEDST today only 2 of the 5 match threads are above 300 posts.

The two that are above 300 posts are the Bombers & the Old Boys—- both clubs that resort to very similar posting styles to increase post counts, but not necessarily improve overall engagement.

YouTube Videos, AI images & 1980’s cartoons may engage a small percentage of contributors who are chronically online, however don’t hook in the opposition.

This thread is overly one sided by the OOB’s. If you remove the contributions of Cap , the next two non-OOB’s posters belong the gatecrashers.

@Puglsey & Robertio have posted more than all the non-Cap Bears posters combined.

The overall engagement in the league is at its lowest in a long time and continuing down this path of posting is only going to make it worse.

 

[Robertio]

BRAB is the man

 

[philreich]

Looks like the Bears are doing their best to kick themselves out of this - maybe they're being coached by the Hawthorn AFLW coach .

 

[Dingster]

1 : 11.03 {C} - Dingster gets crunched in that marking contest but comes out with the ball.

so sounds like you need to fold the bears going by your critique of them this week

=====================================
SIREN SOUNDS FOR THE END OF QUARTER 1
Ophidian Old Boys : 3.1.19
Las Vegas Bears : 3.6.24
=====================================

 

[Robertio]

I’d say the league is broken.

As of 3pm AEDST today only 2 of the 5 match threads are above 300 posts.

The two that are above 300 posts are the Bombers & the Old Boys—- both clubs that resort to very similar posting styles to increase post counts, but not necessarily improve overall engagement.

YouTube Videos, AI images & 1980’s cartoons may engage a small percentage of contributors who are chronically online, however don’t hook in the opposition.

This thread is overly one sided by the OOB’s. If you remove the contributions of Cap , the next two non-OOB’s posters belong the gatecrashers.

@Puglsey & Robertio have posted more than all the non-Cap Bears posters combined.

The overall engagement in the league is at its lowest in a long time and continuing down this path of posting is only going to make it worse.

We'll sign Cap then and get him out of your way.

 

[Pugsley]

=====================================
SIREN SOUNDS FOR THE END OF QUARTER 2
Ophidian Old Boys : 7.3.45
Las Vegas Bears : 6.11.47
=====================================

 

[Senor M]

so sounds like you need to fold the bears going by your critique of them this week

The Bears have been a solid posting unit all season, it’s not our fault that the opposing side turned the match thread into a dull AI generated mess.

Bears have had great threads against most clubs, but if the intention is to fold anyone below the “spam standard” then it would be the OOB’s Vs the Bombers every week.

Actually—- separating those two squads out into a separate league might actually be the saviour of this place

 

[Dingster]

tony who's the forward coach these days? Lasso?
