LOCO will eventually fill, all worlds eventually fill. If they would of been public 3 days ago when no teams was on the list they would of easily filled the remaining spots.

People find it hard to let go of the past. The present/future is that not all worlds will fill.

I'm sure all worlds will "eventually" fill. "Eventually" may be a while, though.

Well, maybe. When WIS starts giving away its product in 2012, sure. LOCO might be able to fill then.

Of course, in all seriousness, if LOCO owners want to stick it out, they should. Good luck to them.

Look at his trade history from season one. There was an owner (still active I believe) named reigny. PB nailed him at least six times with lopsided trades. There was a lot of arguing in the world forum about this, but not enough owners vetoed the trades and they went through. In season two he admitted to intentionally taking advantage of reigny's naive attitude in a trade chat. I asked admin to read his 'confession' in the trade chat. They did and told him that if he did it again he would be stripped of his team. I then posted his confession in the league chat and he accused me of betraying his trust and started crying like a little girl. The boy is not only a cheater, he also has a victim mentality.

Even worlds that merged would of eventually filled, might of taken months, but it would of filled.

thanks jsturgis!

I suppose a credit for our group would have helped but since we did not fall inline with the Gestapo we are to the wolves. We're closer to filling (at least we were... WIS mandates and handling of the issue cost us 4-5 owners) and won't get any help. So strike one for those who stand up for themselves and to those who feel that historical data has some meaning beyond a number in a database.

Good luck to Williams finding some long term owners with WIS' help. I do hope it works out for them.

You should be thrown to the wolves for using "Gestapo" like you're being persecuted. Get some perspective, dude.

You were offered a reasonable compromise and you rejected it. Live with that. Don't whine that CS could do more - they offered your world a way to "get on the field" and your DESIRE to stay independent is why you'll be waiting to fill. Well, that and the "quality" of your dump sites, I mean available teams.

Williams owners, who were willing to compromise, do deserve a bit of "help". LOCO owners, who chose not to compromise, have no right to complain.

The only complaint he has, which I feel is legit is that they had already had 5 people join their world who were then kicked out when the merge was to take place.

Looks like Williams and Foxx might be possible partners. Red Sox sluggers and all.
