3) Revenge
Written: Write 200 words about a team you’d like to get revenge on next season and why. Did they knock you out of the playoffs? Blow you out?
This is quite simple, I would like to get revenge on the Austin Copperheads. I don't know how any Wraith could choose any other team for this task. The Copperheads were on our turf, in our 3rd Ultimus appearance in 5 seasons, and they beat us even though we had about a 70% win chance (I retested it after the game). This is the third time we've lost a home Ultimus with a win advantage and I am really getting tired of it man. So yeah, Copperheads we're coming back for you next season because The North Remembers and we aren't quick to forgive. Sure we lost a few important pieces but we had a pretty good free agncy and scored a great wide receiver to replace our recently retired one. Then we need our defense to add a few select pieces and hopefully find a kicker that can actually score a field goal and we might have a shot at winning next season, but I want revenge dude, I want to knock them out. But I don't want to knock them out in the Ultimus. I want to knock them out of the playoffs entirely with us beating them in week 13. In their house preferably.
4) Rivalry
Written: Which team or player would you consider to be your greatest rival? Write 200 words on why you are rivals with them and why you want them to lose (don’t harass other users please).
After everything I just wrote you'd think you know what my answer is going to be but you're dead wrong. Our biggest rival is the Otters. Why the otters? Well first of all I played for the Otters for 12 seasons on my old player and I won 4 championships with them. Now I just wanted to win one or two and create a new legacy somewhere else, but they've prevented me from doing that. They had to go and beat us in the Ultimus twice, on our turf no less. This is just downright unacceptable and yeah they're rivals for that. Further consider that to be a rival of the Otters who are easily the top team in the history of tthe league you have to be a good team as well. And in the past 5 seasons we have been exactly that, we have the highest regular season win % of all teams in the last 5 seasons. That makes us worthy of rivaling the team that just can't help but win football games in the postseason, I really wish we could do the same though. It would be great to win the Ultimus next season and do so while facing my old team orange county and redeem these last few seasons we've had in Yellowknife where we have failed to put it all together.
6) Expansion
Written: There have been a lot of new players entering the league recently. If you were in charge of a new expansion team for the NSFL or DSFL, how would you go about it?
Okay if I was going to make an expansion team the first thing I would have to do would be to come up with some sweet branding. For that I would opt for the old Charleston Ironclads. I think this is a super interesting branding in a new location that most sim leagues don't use. Ironclad is an awesome football brand, hell gridiron is the name of the field. For the colors we have too many teams with actual colors, I want to be a grey or gunmetal team. Grey and black. Like the Raiders. This would be great at helping differentiate our team in the sim and in the graphics department. Next I would need to build a team around this brand. I would retire myself and either find a fresh recreate at QB who I trust or I'd have to make a QB myself. Either way we need a QB. Next I'd go heavy on drafting certain positions highly, namely cornerback and wide receiver. Beyond that I'd try to fill in some positions by trading for high TPE inactives but really focus on only a couple of elite superstars and use the rest of the middling positions to fill it all in. I'd hope to build a culture that can attract free agents as well and get some free talent.
9) Brotherly Love
Written: We always talk about what teams and players are our rivals. This season, give me what team or player you have a soft spot for.
Man I really want to see the Yeti win something. 3 out of 4 expansion teams have won the Ultimus and the Yeti who have been here since season 1 have yet to do so. They had some really awesome teams at some point but due to timing being unfortunate with when other teams peaked or when expansions happened or when important players went IA they just never seemed to peak hard enough or at the right moment. And now the Yeti are pretty good again but still just can't quite push themselves to number 1. Let's see the Yeti go out and win one once so that we can hopefully stop making yeti jokes. Poor infinite probably cries himself to sleep every night wishing that the Yeti could become something better than the laughing stock of the league for 20 seasons. So if the Wraiths don't win it all next season I wouldn't mind to see the Yeti win, but that would also mean that the Yeti knocked us out of the playoffs (maybe) and I don't know how I feel about that. Either way, go get em yeti dudes, go out there and win one for TheMemeMaestro and for Nick Pierno and all those other legends.
