The Arlon uniforms are nicely done. I'm not sure about the red in Bayview. I think they would look better with just gold and violet. The current Bayview Vikings uniforms remind me of the Minnesota Vikings because basically the same colors are used. And the Los Angeles Kings in the 70's and 80's when they used gold and purple.

Would you be able to do your own version of Sugar Valley using red so that it matches the current logo?

Finally, for the Wildcats jersey, I think the wording would stand out more if you used white letters instead of gray, and then the uniform would look better in the game.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Okay, I'll consider your suggestions, of course, jg2977. Thank you for making them. I'll see if I can't improve what I have made for the teams just mentioned, as soon as I can. But I'll probably still need to know the exact color coordinates of the red color you'd like me to try using with Sugar Valley here, whether you tell me those coordinates or EC does. Supposing I can't actually find them out myself somehow first, you know.

I'm going to post up some possible items for a potential renaming of the Cape Coral Hurricanes next. Items for an idea where they'd be called the Spires instead of the Hurricanes, actually. Of course, if you and/or EC don't choose to use them, that would be perfectly fine with me. But I hope you might find use for them in the future, somehow, especially once we place Cape Coral on the relevant map or maps soon enough, you know. I saw Spires somewhere while I was trying to decide on possible colors I might want to use when I eventually might try my hand at doing some items for Dutton's Coyotes, and I saw that name. I think it might work well, if Cape Coral is in a suitable location on the relevant map or maps, you see.

Talk more soon, no doubt, if and whenever possible and all. Lord willing and all, of course, that is. Thank you for your input and all, as always, jg2977. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Here are some prospective items for a potential renaming of the Cape Coral Spires. I decided to try to do these items well first before trying to tackle any of the other teams on one of my thought-vein-related lists here. I admit I may have to work on them more, most likely, but at least for now, I've made these items here, in any case.

The font used on all these items is called NewRocker. The current color-related information for these items is below:

2a8cfe Dodger Blue (42, 140, 254)
e088d5 Violet Web (224, 136, 213)
795501 Field Drab (121, 85, 1)
def2c8 Tea Green (222, 242, 200)

Please feel free to comment as you like and can, within fair and just reason and all, folks. I'd like to know what you think of these items here, if and when I can, of course. Thank you for your time and attention here, then. That is all for now, I suppose. CD out.

[jg2977]

For Sugar Valley:

Hex = f71723
RGB = rgba(247,23,35,255)

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

As for the purple used on the Bayview items, I used another site to blend the shades of purple together that the Vikings have used before in their color-related history, into a single color. I do want to use red for them along with the other colors simply because the Vikings controlled at least part, if not all, of Norway in their cultural history.

While the color red may not be used for them as one of their usual colors in the Civilization series of video games, the Vikings did still control much, if not most, of what is called Scandinavia at their historical peak, from Norway down to at least Denmark, and other areas in and around the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, for example, in world history. So I do want to keep red in the look for Bayview here at least a little bit, for sure, you see.

Good point on the Wildcats text, I think, in relation to the home items. Let me see what I can do for them both. Especially with the gray already likely on them both. I don't think it's going to be too much of a problem to add a bit of white to their overall look here, per your suggestion for them here.

I should be able to make the requested changes to some items for the teams you mentioned, or for at least Kenwood and Sugar Valley soon. Maybe even today, at that, sometime. As for Bayview, maybe I can switch the red and another color with each other in certain areas of the relevant items, to see what happens better. Please stay tuned, then, jg2977.

Might need to play around with possible looks for the Spires at least a little bit more here, I think. But we'll have to see here, of course. Thank you for your time and all here, then, of course, as always. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Okay, let's see if you like these then, jg2977. First I'll post the new items for Kenwood, then the ones for Sugar Valley. Hope you like them, of course, but if you don't, then so be it, you know. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

New prospective items for Kenwood's Wildcats. That is all. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

New prospective items for Sugar Valley's Rattlers. That is all. CD out.

[jg2977]

That's better for the Kenwood Wildcats.

Any chance you can do Sugar Valley without the purple/violet?

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

I don't see why not, most likely. I'll have to think a bit on things here, but I think I can do so well enough, somehow, jg2977. Perhaps by the end of the weekend, I may be able to come up with more good items for you here, but we'll have to see.

As for the Spires, I think their items look good, but they might look even better with certain logo options available for them, of course. Maybe when we place them on the new map or maps I'm going to make, we can figure out town or city-related details that might tie into the proposed team name. Maybe there could be at least one structure with spires on it like church spires or fantasy-type spires on it, for instance? Just a thought or two here, seeing as we're moving away at least a little bit from how EC has his IPA and all, you know. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

More items for Sugar Valley, per jg2977's request. That is all. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Here is my first take on several items for a potential LaGrange Sportsmen team in at least one potential league/dynasty, whether the aforementioned team is ever put into at least one of my current or future leagues/dynasties or not, folks. Please feel free to let me know what you think of these items, if and when you like, within fair and just reason and all here? Okay?

The font used for them all is currently Rochester, and the color-related information for them is below:

cdccdc Lavender Gray (205, 204, 220)
93282c Ruby Red (147, 40, 44)
faaaaf Light Pink (250, 170, 175)
8031a7 Violet RYB (128, 49, 167)
26ff62 Screamin Green (38, 255, 98)

That is all for now, then, I think, folks. Thank you for your time and attention and all here, of course. CD out.

[jg2977]

I like your red Sugar Valley Rattlers uniforms much better. Just one more request for them if you don't mind. Could you make a white (or light colored) home jersey for the Rattlers with the red as a secondary color?

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

I think I can. Although that item or those items probably won't be done until this weekend at the earliest, I believe, for various reasons, I'll try to have them done for you by this time next week, if at all possible. As for potential division or subleague shifters for the likely realignment process, you might perhaps add the Wynnamac Sundowners to your list of potential movers, because right now, they are in the RU East, it seems. Seeing as the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west here on Earth, you know. Just a thought here, that's all, jg2977.

How are the new rivals doing for their respective teams? And what do their respective profile pages look like now? I'd also like to see what all the Freemans' profile pages look like too, soon, if possible, of course. Please keep me posted on all seven of the players you've approved so far for play in your IPA periodically, if you don't mind too much. Thank you. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

EC, what do you currently have for either the Glasco Foxhounds or Glasco Athletics from your IPA? Please let me know. Thank you.

I have also recently been doing some items for various teams that may or may not meet with your usual preferences when it comes to teams in any of your leagues. But if you have any suggestions on how to perhaps improve them with the tools and skills I currently have available to me, then I'd really appreciate your thoughts and advice regarding them. Whether or not you choose to use them in any of your leagues on the forums or not, of course, that is.

I am fine, for the most part, for sure. But certain writing business is still not really coming to me, in terms of at least a few of my various writing projects, at the present time, unfortunately. I'm hoping to be able to write a good deal more soon, but right now, I'm kind of stuck with various writing projects of mine, so I'm basically trying to stay creative by working on graphics and all here.

I'd rather be writing more to my stories, in truth, right now, but they're not exactly coming to me at the present time. Hopefully that won't be the case for me for much longer, but if it is, then so be it. I do believe that they'll each come to me more when they come, though, somehow, Lord willing and all.

While I don't yet physically hear the hoofbeats of the Four Horsemen, I do believe that my spirit may possibly be starting to hear their hoofbeats at least a little as more time passes in this world of ours. I have a strong feeling that many of us will be hearing them louder and louder as more time passes within the next few years or so, at most. But even if we do, and I'm still here when they come onto the world scene, I'm sure God will still be watching over me and all those who follow Him, whether I survive their effects or not in this life. In any case, I will still definitely remain as faithful to Him who made me as best as I can, for the rest of my life here, I'm quite sure, until I finally am called Home, or God allows me to be killed, or something else happens to me in this life.

Talk more later, as time permits and all, no doubt. Lord willing and all, of course. Thank you for your time and attention and all here, as always, EC. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Here are some items I just made for the Dutton Coyotes, folks. While I haven't yet found any logos to go along with them well enough, I have just made these uniforms and caps so far, at least, for them. I will most likely have to work on this set more, of course, but for now, at least I do have these items made for them here, in any case.

The font that I'm using currently for all these items is Reswysokr, although I don't think I'm totally sold on it for this team here, just yet. As for the color-related information for this team here, it is below:

582c83 KSU Purple (88, 44, 131)
cac7a7 Sage (202, 199, 167)
9ea2a2 Quick Silver (158, 162, 162)
feee80 Yellow Crayola (254, 238, 128)
794913 Sepia (121, 73, 19)

Please feel free to comment as you like and can, within fair and just reason and all, of course, folks. I hope to see your comments on these items periodically, if and when I possibly can here, for sure. That is all. CD out.

I'll post about your created players at the halfway point of the season, and then again at the end of the regular season.

I made most of the players in my league offensive juggernauts, so I had to boost the ratings of your created players higher than the attributes that you sent me, otherwise they never would have gotten into any games. One of them, Sikander Garber, who I placed on Kenwood, still wasn't getting any playing time and was very unhappy, so I had to trade away one of his teammates to make room for him.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Okay, that's fine, just so long as I can read about them every so often, whether it's twice a year or more often than that. Whether they're the Freemans or not, of course.

As far as matters relating to certain teams in your IPA, especially in regards to potential division and/or subleague changes for certain teams, I've had these thoughts so far:

Wynnamac Sundowners should be in a West Division
Belle Plaine Musketeers to the Ginza Ninjas' division
Fort Benton Defenders to the River City Raiders' division
Summerland Sunsets to a West Division
Arroyo Grande Suns to an East Division
Delacroix Cubs to the Chicopee Braves and the Denton City Redbirds' division
Bayview Vikings to a North Division
Southport Sun Sox to an East Division
Red Bluff Red Sox to the New Yerby Yankees' division
Lakewood Archers to the Ginza Ninjas and Colchester Elites' division

I'll probably have at least a few more considerable thoughts about these kinds of things later, but will most likely have to read more of your relevant dynasty thread to have more ideas about how we might realign your subleagues and divisions here and all, I think. It may take a while to go through the whole thread, of course, but if it does, then so be it. It's probably going to be a while before you reach 1981 anyway, you know, jg2977. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Well, as I proposed him, Sikander had a listed controversy rating of 148 out of a maximum possible value of 200, if I remember correctly enough. If so, then that's probably no real surprise that he was unhappy prior to the aforementioned trading of his teammate here. You did assign starting personality values to each of the new players as proposed, right? I hope so, of course, jg2977. CD out.

[jg2977]

In regards to the Sun Sox, since their name is Southport a South division for them works quite well. What is your reasoning for moving them to an East division, if you don't mind me asking? I assume because the sun rises in the East?

I have no objections to any of your proposed realignments. Looking at them, the majority make a lot of sense to me. I can see how teams named after the sun setting should be in the West.

Yes, I assigned personality ratings to all of your players.
