Hello, I'm Emi. I'm the General manager of the Kashima Foxes in the PBE, Assistant General manager of the Vancouver Wolves in the VHL and just a user that thinks i need to finally explain what has been happeneing with me. I know i do not actually owe anyone anything but at the same time it might help other general managers to get an understanding of what happned as i understand that this sort of thing that happned before may put you off a player but i hope that with some explanation you can understand what happened.
Some of you may know me from the PBE or other simulation sports leagues. Some of you might only know me for my brief stint in this league before. What i wanted to do today was explain what led to me retiring my player Kotone Shiomi and why i have decided to re-create and i think with that it will hopefully give all people be that other players or General managers a better insight to what was happening a the time and why everything happened as it did.
So, we will first start of with the timing i originally joined the league. I have been looking into this league for a few months now but never really was one hundred percentent on if i was wanting to join or not. It was not until i had met Simo in the PBE that i decided that i was going to join. The reason for this was he was a player on my Minor league team at the time and he'd come in talking about his things in the league and it made me think maybe i should join. I had asked in the past for someone to tell me when the trade deadline was as that was the optimal time to create in any sim league i am award but i had not been given that infomation in the past and when i happened to ask this time i had been lucky enough to stumble upon the correct time.
Now at the time of joining i had applied for a Head General Manager job within the Professional Baseball Experience a league that is affiliated here and as i mentioned earlier some may know me from. I did not at the time really expect to get the nod and be told i would be the general manager for one of the incoming expansion teams and as a result i was really shaken with responsablities due to that league that i did not originally expect. So when i originally went into this i originally was the one of the general Managers for the Dallas Dynamos with @LegallyBlindGamer which was in the minor leagues. As a result my timetable for what i could and could not do seemed a lot more relaxed. I decided at the time i could join this and see how it goes and i really enjoyed my first bits of exposure to the league. This is one of a few things that led to the retirement of Kotone.
Next, we will get onto the main reason to why i retired. This bit is the hardest bit to speak about as i will be divulging a lot of personal stuff and things like that but it is something that i think i need people to know so i do not just get written off as someone who is likely to just keep re-creating over and over as that is not and was not my intention.
So, here we go... When i was in the 2nd week or 3rd week here on the site i recieved news that my grandfather had passed away. This was something that really came out of nowhere and i decided to take sometime away from simulation sports leagues which i imagine most of you could understand. The issue was that i had become a General Manager in the other league of an expansion team while this happened so i was having to deal with an upcoming expansion and majors draft while dealing with the loss of a loved one. I had really just become overwhelmed and drained. I tried to keep active but at the time i was just feeling like a lot of this was pointless and that i was not having fun with it. Please take into account that this league was never going to be my main or secondary league but i have a lot of spare time so it is something i could easily do on the side. However, i had realised that i did not really feel like i was spending enough time with my family at the time so i decided to take a small break as i needed the rest. When it came to returning to do the work for this league i had lost all motivation and this was a thing that also happened in the other simulation sports leagues at the time. It all seemed a little bit pointless to me that i was spending my time here. So i was not dealing with the death as well as i had hoped as while i was doing this i still had to get ready for stuff in the PBE with a very short window and i just could not deal with the added pressure. It was not until this weekend i had sometime to relax and come to terms with all the things that had happened and as a result i have now realised i am in a better place and ready to re-join the league,
Now, one thing that lead me to going to retire over going inactive for example was my understanding of how being a quaterback worked in the this league. I though that because i had this week off to deal with family issues i was not going to be drafted and that i was in a bad place at the time. I was scared that i would be made to do a posistion swap due to missing out on the small amount of TPE and as a result i decided that it might be best for me to step away and come back at another time. I have been informed that i could have continued as over the legnth of a career missing 1 week is not going to kill you as a player. However, my head was not in the right place and i did not have the mental capacity to think it over correctly and the only thing i remember at the time was the thing shown in create a player saying that about max earning.
So yeah, now you know what happened with me and my previous player. If i was able to get Kotone Shiomi back i would just play as them as i loved that idea for a character and i have wasted it and was unable to use it which is very upsetting to me but i guess it is what it is and i gave to move forward as Emi Rune from now on. This name maybe familiar to those who are in the VHL as it is my player there's name. I have always done a simpler Rune family character thing int he past and i think this is something that will help me be able to write easily as i can lean on the backgrounds of my other players too.
I am not the best when it comes to my knowledge about american football as i am from the UK and American football is not really popular here. I also joined the PBE with little knowledge of baseball and quickly picked up a lot of it so i am wanting to learn about the sport and i am willing too but i just do not know where to start for example. I know my old university had an american football team which might be the only level of the sport we have here unless it's the games that get played in the UK.
Anyways, now you know what happened and that i am going to be here for the long haul this time. I hope that i get picked up by a friendly team and i cannot wait to start again. I hope to have my Wikia up about my player soon and i intend to write a story about how Emi found herself here from the VHL.
Now, if you're also wondering my name is also Emi and the character is based on some real life things about myself such as the characters height and other things. I intend on writing and maybe doing a podcast like i do in the PBE and VHL as they're something i find very fun when done with the right individuals. I hope that this time i can be in a better place and i find a nice place. I am aware that i will not be in the DSFL draft which is a little upsetting but it is what it is and i would love for the managers who have waiver spots to come speak to me first if they are thinking of taking me as the starting Quarterback.
