WIS V All-Time Baseball Draft: HARRRRRRRIFIC (1 Viewer)

I'm running out of patience here. I hate to be Captain Obvious, but it seems necessary at this point:

Nipsey never wanted to be in WIS IV.

Nipsey never wanted to be in WIS V.

I think it's perfectly understandable if some members of the original all time draft find the current incantation a little dry. But the ridiculous, unfunny "I'm in/I'm out/I blame Koya" nonsense has become extremely tiresome. It's only amusing (I guess) to those who really have no interest in participating in WIS V.

If anyone wants this to happen, I suggest moving along without Nipsey in the plans. Sounds like that also means Capella, Funkley, Dude, GWB, maybe others are out.

Further, on a personal basis, mostly I don't really care who plays, but I won't be in a league with UCONN/hoopsfan. There is a very clear track record with this guy and I'm uncomfortable being in a league with him. Sorry if that causes a problem.
I wavered on whether or not to respond to this, as I didn't want to step on my aesthetically pleasing final post invoking Carson's farewell, but I can't ####### help myself. This post makes me sick.Roadeyes/Mr Jimmy/Nerdlinger, I DID want to be in WIS 4. I don't know how many times I can say it until you believe me. I really don't. Let me try one more time. I DID want to be in WIS 4. Believe me yet? Here, one more time: I really, REALLY wanted to be in WIS 4. Can we move past this point now? Will you accept me at my word? Please? Thanks.

See, here's the difference between you and me in regards to these threads/sims. For me, It's not about the game, it's about the people I'm playing with. I don't care about the SIM and who wins. Why would I? What I do like about it though are the I-friends who make me laugh and make an otherwise boring/meaningless game enjoyable. See, it's not so much the beer that I enjoy, it's the people I get to spend my buzz with that makes the night enjoyable. I can go to a bar alone whenever I want, but what a waste of brain cells that would be. Why can't you see this?

Moving on to WIS V: I wanted to be in this one too, but I wanted it to be about the journey and who was on it with me, rather than the destination. Let me reiterate. I don't care about WIS or who's on my team...but if I'm going to spend a few months putting a squad together, I want to have fun doing it and not waste my time with people who don't feel the same.

What I never can understand about you/Doug and the rest of the guys who are ALWAYS in a huge hurry to get a team together is why you just don't join a random sim with complete strangers? You can have your WIS fix whenever you want...why do you have to subject people who actually want to enjoy the time here to your boring, emotionless perspective on things? Some of us don't share the same robotic-like need for compiling statistics as you and some others do.

In closing, my not wanting to participate with Koya has nothing to do with his religion. It has to do with just not wanting to spend a few months with a guy who went out of his way to make an old friend feel like a burden. I didn't appreciate it, and I will not forget it. I just don't like the guy any more and will not waste ANY time having him being a part of something that requires months worth of effort. That's not shtick. And if you still choose to not believe me, that's your problem. I don't give a #### what you think anymore. Enjoy your math.

So you're saying it's Koya's fault I thought you were in the 4th installment and took The ALL-TIME HOME RUN KING resulting in my Bob Feller pick.If so...I vote NIPSEY

 
Jimmy is my friend too Nips :thumbup:

You'll see. The fact that you posted in here again after your original farewell means it's tugging at your heartstrings.

Capella is right! SHOCK THE WORLD :thumbup: :hifive:

 
I feel so violated. Do I need to read this page or something?
Oh, you're back. :o
No way. We're talking Pumpkins here (replace the p with 2 other letters. I don't know if that word will fly here, guy.)Bogart has had much worse happen to him :thumbup:
I was never on the receiving end, sir.
You gave one? :jawdrop:
This is getting a little too weird for me guys. :scared:
:goodposting: Another dude or a chick wearing a strap-on :confused:
Please strike anything I have said today in this thread.Thanks. :unsure:

 
nips...let's just do this. Let's shock the world.
Hopefully this is not shtick.JUST DO IT.
Never, not with you.
Shame on you. Ruining Fermi's dreams like that. All he ever wanted was to see Nips and Uncle Cappy join together to form an unbeatable team. And you're taking that away for what... for what.
You can play, nothing's stopping you.
That's not what Fermdawg wanted.

Stop. Please. You can do better.You never wanted to play in WIS IV or WIS V for that matter. Your grudge with Koya is completely fabricated. That's fine, but it ceased being amusing long ago. As you state, you're more interested in hanging out with some ifriends; the game is secondary. I'm pretty sure most of us feel the same way. But WIS is the vehicle we use as the rally point and you've done nothing but muck it up for the past two iterations. Shtick or not, it long ago moved past funny into the thoroughly annoying stage.

I also understand your motivations for playing or not playing. There are some great guys involved in this, and that is, indeed, the attraction. But you force the issue. Let it come to you, Nipsey. Subtlety is your friend.

Of course the current WIS is completely different from the original. Stop being such a whiny nostalgic #####, get your ### officially in WIS V-no stipulations-and make the next WIS one to remember, if that's what you're looking for.

 
This sucks, this mini-showdown should have happened an hour ago.  I have to go to class soon.
Me too...and I just found someone to blame for my Feller incident :angry:
:own3d: and :own3d:
at least it's not raining here :thumbup:
:sadbanana: Its been a thai jungle over here the last week...
with the cheap Thai "talent"?
I wish. :kicksrock:
maybe you'll luck out and get a hot co-ed in a soaking t-shirt sitting next to you :thumbup:

That's not exactly appealing, either, the way you phrased it.It's true that no one particular owner makes or breaks the sims for me ... but I do like having the history of playing mostly against guys I know from the FFA. It's also cool when new blood comes in from the FFA or BBT, like when Rolen, halos, and Eephus first joined.

Sim participation can be many things to many people all at the same time ... other people's "boring perspectives" shouldn't get in the way with whatever you want to do or talk about.

Also, it seems notable that there is a marked difference in competitiveness amongst us all. I play these things -- and pretty much anything -- to win, or at least represent well. I can get lots of enjoyment from banter, but I still try hard to win. I know several others here understand this take -- mrharrier and Koya, for sure, to name two of many. Anyway, that's what following the stats are about -- a means to perform well in this arena.

It's an interesting question to ponder -- how well does the sim experience (the drafting + maintenance of teams) cater to a mixed group of varying levels of competitiveness? I don't know the answer to that, but I don't see a reason why schtick and numbers talk can't co-exist in the same draft thread.
