First sim he doesn't send a lineup. I send him an email asking why since it was his first sim and I would think he would want to reshape the team. He replies that he just got overwhelmed and he was sorry and he would send one in for the next sim. It was a very polite email.
The 2nd sim comes along and he writes and says he has no team for this one sim, could I do an auto-lineup, and he will do a lineup from now on. He is very polite and writes a nice email. What could I say?
3rd siim coming up and he sends an email saying that he must resign. It was a very polite email. This person, whoever he is, has good manners.
I just thought this was interesting because I had the exact same thing happen to me recently. I guess it's what is annoying about people in general. Me personally, I wouldnt join an online baseball league where you are gm and stick around for a month. Dont you want to go through a few drafts, make some trades, adjust your rotation and lineup. Maybe it sjust that they are into the game for a short period of time and tire of it like any other game. The thing is, OOTP is a different type of game and I dont know how you can find out who will be a good, active, long -term owner and who will aggravate you and waste your time. I think that one good solution is to get enough personal friends of yours and other core owners in the league so you have a group you can fall back on. Hopefully, as you churn through the others, you'll pick up a few good gms that way. But the thing is, everyone burns out. Or the guys that are really into the league are in like 5 leagues and they need to get rid of one or two. Oh well....maybe its a neverending process.
Anyway, I dont think you would have to end your league. You could play with a few owners missing and still have an enjoyable experience. Hopefully, guys that join in the future have the courtesy to stop wasting our time instead of thse lame cop-out emails where "they are having family problems" or some other bs.
