11) What is it that keeps you interested in the league? Is it your love of dot football, your locker room, a specific job or role you play, or something else? What do you like most about it? What could be improved?
What keeps me in the league is soemthing I have been thinking about quite a bit recently, as I've found it hard to consistently engage with the site in a meaningful way, or really any meaningful way as I do with the SHL. It's made me genuinely think about what keeps coming back and it comes down to the people on the site itself and the effort put into it by various war rooms and people. I think the passion shown by people around me makes it so I don't want to just quit on the site, I instead want to improve on my player so I don't leave them disappointed in drafting me, or trading up to draft me. Getting into specifics that comes to Jimi, Amid, Inverted, and Southpaw are all guys I've had discussions with on long-term stuff. Jimi helped with getting builds in for sim changes and showed genuine care in helping get me up to speed with the ISFL as a whole. South right now is probably the main reason I'm chugging along since he's taken upon a big role as development head for Austin and is working with me on finding PT's and making a budget/spending plan for the future. Can't give enough big ups on that one since it's huge. And that's where the effort level of users comes into play. I've seen the budget and behind the scenes work from both my GM's, I've gotten a sense of the effort and planning required to make things work. And having an entire part of team front office dedicated to developing and helping prospects is something very new, and very welcome to me in the long-run. Genuinely, in the SHL I haven't seen that level of officiality with the development of players, and being apart of the group that gets it first hand is eye-opening. I'm not big into the dot football aspect of things--fuck, I've said it before I don't even understand real football. So even though I'm not around my locker rooms as much as I want it's still the people in the league and on my teams that keep me coming back to do the point tasks, and even send in some bean tik toks. Looking back at the question, I don't think the people in this league could improve at all. Surely some will disagree but most everyone I've talked to has been a positive influence and looking out for the best for eachother. Everything else that isn't done, is on me. Well, except for the fact you can't see when there are new posts in threads/choose to jump to the last post or the first post of a thread afaik. Makes it hard to keep track of everything going on from a league standpoint when you can't look for new developments in media posts or announcements.
16) The bank now accepts ISFL currency in exchange for real money – every ISFL dollar counts as $0.50 in the real world. How much money would you exchange, and what would you spend it on?
I'm gonna be very real with this one, I dont think I have the capital to make money off of this arrangement. Fuck, I probably owe the ISFL money if this were the case. So I want to at least go over some form of strategy to get work. First off, I'd be getting paid like $500k for a minimum contract. I think beyond that I don't need any money, but things can get a lot more intensive based on earning. For example I would keep my contract money as a "deposit" and go big into writing media to make bank. Write an article worth 9.5 mil and that's $4 million exchanged in the real world. I'd make banl. and once I got $4 million, there's nothing I wouldn't spend it on.
This is where the big idea comes in. $4 million is a lot, I'll get some random schmuck off the street who doesn't know about the ISFL, and I give him a primer on the league. Then, I give him $100k to write 10k words with research and graphs to back it up. In his mind, 100k dollars for some fake football league is money in the bank, while I'm potentially making upwards of $5 million on the transaction, or a gain of $4.9 million. Keep going around placed and eventually I'm going to be absolutely loaded, and can just keep paying guys to write articles. I'd end up in the ISFL HoF with my insane money and TPE earning (training is beeg baby) and I could probably afford an indoor pool. Really, what I'd do with the money is work it in for more money. Invest, invest, invest. Take advantage of exhange rates and never lose a thing. Also, I'd buy a fuck ton of spaghetti. It's so damn tasty. I love spaghetti.
