Okay, positive gush moment. This is to be fair pretty easy considering how many great users there are on the website and in our community, and it has truely been special and lovely to be tagged in more posts than I expected to be, so thanks to everyone that tagged me.... should I?.. yeah! I am a huge believer in the power of reciprocity.
So here are all the amazing people who said something amazing about me recently.
@UltimateYeehaw - the best badger in our community, hands down, my first real memory of them is playing fantasy with them, in a super late starting group and wrestling for the lead all season with them, but somehow I got lucky right at the end and finished number 1.... I am shocked she has time for me as a team-mate after that.. but I am glad as what a great teamie, and one of the people that listens to my podcast which is amazing :-) - great team mate, would highly recommend, everyone joins Baltimore so they can experience it to.
@fever95 - Fellow Balitmore Dad, and one of those low key GREAT sim leaguers. Does their PTs their updates and follows the sim, and is active in the LRs that they are in. If everyone was like Fever this league would already have 20 teams and pressing expansion again soon. Basically the quintessential role-model Sim leaguer.
@goodfortunecoffee - I dont know Fuzz that well yet, but we played each other at chess, and he is excited about doing a bestball NFL draft with me if I can get enough Baltimore people to make it work, so thats a win in two columes for me. Basically looking forward to getting to know them more and see what being a team mate with them is like.
@Bigred1580 - Sometimes we talk and I think I am talking to myself. I always knew of bigred the user, and I was excited to hear such a high profile member had joined the dad ranks, but I never expected that he would actually live up to the hype. One of the chillest yet super active people in our Locker room, funny, kind, and dedicated, amazing person who I really wish I live on the same continent so there was a half chance of grabbing a beer one day. apologies for getting you into WoT, but also not really..
@Thor - Hey! the first person to get super excited about me re-creating in the ISFL, as a rookie mentor he even helped me figure out what numbers linebackers wear, he chose the 54 that I wear. But in all seriousness, I would not still be here probably if not for the fantastic LR that the MBB guys had built and fostered, great guy, good work stories, Aussie - but I guess you can't have a plus in every column, active and great to just shoot the shit with. Also a SHL goalie, so that speaks well for him.
@JayWhy - My First SHL mentor, and one of the architects behind the amazing career that Peter Larson SHL goalie experienced. Fantastic writer and person to have in a LR, and I am super glad they have enjoyed joining the ISFL and hopefully enjoying being a player again, after a long stint as SHL simmer and then directly followed by a long and still current stint as a GM, I hope you are finding the ISFL is a great place to relax and re-enjoy Sim life.
@Frick_Nasty - One of the Fab V with the Marshals, so like Shady one of the first people i spent time chatting to back when I first started out. been fantastic to re-connect as my "new" GM, and love the stories and memes and intensity that keeps you going and so glad to be on your team. Also cool that we both have two boys almost the same age.
@Mooty99 - my former colleague who I recruited to the league, always nice to see those you recruit vastly outshine you :-D. was great being a copperhead with you all those seasons, so glad we got a ship together, and thanks for your backing and support when I was briefly one of the Baltimore interims. we need to do a "in the pub with Tomasnz and mooty" podcast restrictions are almost over, lets make it happen.
@TheDangaZone - great user that I have known for a while from my SHL HO days when he was a GM, and ofcourse he is a GM again there to another team, like Jaywhy its always great to play with these gms from other leagues as just a player and see them relax and enjoy the LR with a little less at stake. Great team mate that I am looking forward to trying for a championship with.
@Mojojojo - the shinning hope of my early Baltimore days (along with Starboy), my heart broke when you requested a trade, but I totally understood and was probably on a similar trajectory. Loved our transport chats and lol'd about the self dox. great to still have you around the LR and see you chiming in.
@qWest - soooo... you didnt actually mention me in the PT, but you did say lovely things about me as part of the podcasting regulars, and that made my day, so I just wanted to say a big thank you for that, and I really enjoyed that weird mock we did back in S26.
@shadyshoelace - one of the Fab V that welcomed me to the league in the SA Marshals LR, has been a cool team mate recently in Balitimore and has great taste in TV.
@Memento Mori - GB boy, which is great as the more euros we have the better the league is, its a fact. but part of the crew in MBB who was so welcoming to me, and in particular super helpful and supportive to me when I was going through the interim GM stuff. thanks for that. I would say lets get a pint, but you moved awkwardly north...
But also I should call out two really great users. @timeconsumer whom without I wouldnt have had such a great time getting into the league way back in S15 with the Marshals, and likewise @White Cornerback who I have been a team mate with almost solidly all the way since S16 (there might be one season when we werent). Both of these guys are league legends and the league might not exist if it hadnt been for either of them. Big thanks
the above is a slim snapshot of all the people in our league that are amazing, and I am purposefully not tagging more people as the more I tag the more I will leave out. But I love this community, I love the Baltimore team and really enjoy all my interactions with people on this site and in the discords.
