AE AE 2019 Launch and Discussion Thread

We doing this again? (Assuming a season gets underway)

Best tipping comp by far and adds extra excitement to the NFL season

 

[AmericanCrow]

I am up for a chance to string together ND championships

A dynasty is born fellas

 

[aussiedude]

doubt there will be a season. at least not a full one.

 

[peterbuch74]

I'm up for playing... someone else would need to maintain the comp week to week though.
I'm snowed under with work sorry.

 

[fuey]

More than happy to play, but I agree with aussiedude , I don't think we'll have a season.

 

[Dirty Bird]

If we got a full season Id play
But if its comprimised I wouldnt want to
So yeah.

I think it's worth taking a break, cover ourselves.
Or we could go with a year without $ involved?

 

[Oscarman]

Also keen but depends on what the season looks like

 

[Big Red Machine]

Id be interested

 

[nobbyiscool]

I wonder if we should be getting JD to weigh in on this.

If we look at other examples of global sport with late fixture announcements, scheduling changes etc - that's a lot of work to be asking someone to do on the webpage, often on very short notice.

I think I'd personally be giving AE a miss this year. I think that, if we get a season, it's going to be too much of a cluster* for a competition like this to have integrity, and I can't in good conscience just expect JD to likely need to do additional work at short notice. Maybe it'll be different if he contributes saying he's happy to do it.

Yeah fair enough - probably not gonna happen this year even if a season gets going

We're inching closer to running an AE season again this year with JeffDunne being ok to fire up the AE website.

Even with any difficulties that arise with scheduling JD doesn't think this will pose a problem.

Looking for some feedback around interest if we ran a scaled back comp this season, possibly involving not doing Next Dual with peterbuch74 's time limited due to work pressures and just running CR tipping and the other comps like 3XKO, High Roller etc.

Nothing confirmed, just weighing up options before JD gets fully up and about with the website.

Is there enough interest ? Would not running ND turn people off ?

I'll be up for any kind of comp that runs, happy to pay the normal entry fee as well (as I assume there will be less participants so prize money for each comp will be reduced)

Even if it's just straight CR but 3xko and hot streak would be good too

 

[Exe Gesis]

Just the web-based comps imo -- cr, 3xko, hot streak -- and regardless how many people, still worth running. 10, 20, people whatever.

 

[balmainforever]

I’m guessing we should try to start recruiting people from now and decide later if we need to have money involved.
Ive got no problem in being involved if it’s for pride only.

 

[Dannyreed]

I’d be keen to go again regardless of how the company looks

 

[AmericanCrow]

Fine by me, I remain Champion of ND

Heck we can retire the title with me
