Media To Bye or Not To Bye: That Is The Question

[NaturalDisaster]

I know that now.

Please list some ideas for media, that are not even remotely using recycled material, which you would like to see. Even one completely original idea is welcome.

It's not up for me to give you media ideas

Because there is almost nothing left that hasn’t been covered, however tenuously, by someone else in the last 30 seasons.

Lol, just be honest. There are a bunch of losers on here that have literally nothing in their lives except for their noteriety in an online forum that couldnt bear to go unheard for an entire week, because again, theyve got nothing going on in their lives

Want me to list the top 3 Gatecrashers so far this season? The results will shock you!

Or you're just not very creative.

No issues with a bye. Sometimes need a week off to refresh or so without one anyway so a bye would be nice. Also would allow those media inclined to have more time focused into it for that week

Plus the ladder will look more interesting. Behind but might have a game in hand? Could be fun

I am definitely warming up to the idea of a bye.

Would also make the expansion bids way more competitive if they were fighting with each other to get accepted.

Refer to post #2, some very astute person has already reached that conclusion.

Apologies Jabba

I was responding to our Supreme Leader

The point he made about teams on the bye potentially spamming other match threads reconfirmed the need for even team numbers

I am sure you will find something to distract you during bye week mate

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

As a completely impartial person I suggest if there is a bid that is just great that this team replace the wooden spooner.

Would add interest to the last two rounds!

No, not nessecarily.

I believe the bids should be judged independetly on each other. A strong bid shouldn't be brought down because of a weaker one.

I am just saying, if it does happen, gatecrashing might need to be controlled. Not banned totally, but just controlled.

Probably Supersuns the grub

 

[Broken]

Hmm. Bye or Simpsons themed team?

Bye.

Your concept is lazy Broken.

Awww, but all the generic boring names were taken.

Thoughts NaturalDisaster ?

Fold a team over something completely out of their control?

Go take your meds HOrry.

The other way to avoid a bye would be to dissolve the Warriors .

I blame myself for putting faith in you coming up with something both ridiculous and awesome. Shame on me.

I'd be ok with merging two existing sides that I am not involved in, but I'm also a dick

 

[serial_thrilla]

I think the problem is that you doubled down on the Simpsons naming. The Isotopes I can live with, but when paired with Springfield it gets a little cringe. Want to align with a Sweet FA venue? Outback Isotopes. Want something alliterative? Illawarra Isotopes. Ipswich Isotopes. Ingham Isotopes. Inverleigh Isotopes.

Hey I'm a firm believer in laughing at the misfortunes of others.......

Just change both names and start again. Springfield Isotopes is so uncreative.

A Springfield Isotopes team in the Sweet FA has been, half seriously, bandied about for years. I've decided to facilitate it and see if it has legs.
I'm happy to make this less serious than it needs to be.

I like the idea of both bids fighting to the death

come on team 14 get out from the shadows and lets do this

Sure.

Your nose seems to be stuck inside your own colon.

DockerDen Hens

My name isn't going anywhere near an expansion team. DockerDen is a terrible name that I am changing after this season.
