Looks like they shut Holmes down in the Pro Cup Finals. That certainly didn't help South Fork here, it seems. Let's see if we can't perhaps see Freeman win a Pro Cup with Denton City before his career ends, of course. And see if Hillsboro can win one before Walton's career is over too. I would hope Glasco's chances of winning more will increase considerably, once Jethro Morse debuts with them in 1883. Tanner Garber's due to debut with Kenwood in 1884, and Barrett Parverol with Sugar Valley in 1887 or 1888, with Simon Clairborne due to debut with Turon in 1887 or 1888, it seems, as well. Just to remind you of who is left to come into your IPA of the eight mutually agreed-upon players here, jg2977. CD out.

Yes, perhaps if Holmes had hit better in the Pro Cup, South Fork could have become the first team to win 3 IPA titles. However, I'm not disappointed. Colfax finished with the best record this past season, so it was nice to see them capture the championship crown.

To speed things up, I won't be posting individual cards for awards anymore. The simple report that I can get from the league history is sufficient, as it has a nice listing of each awards winners' most relevant statistics in an efficient table format. Also, after this season I'm going to change the MVP award criteria so that pitchers can't win. Pitchers have their own award anyway, actually two of them, with the Reliever of the Year as well.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Let's see, that puts Zebulon Morse at one title, and Jeddy Holmes at one title, apiece. Freeman and Walton still don't have a title apiece, unfortunately, it seems, though. Hopefully Jethro can help Zeb get at least one more title in his career before both are done here, as well, somehow.

Still to enter your IPA are Jethro, Tanner, Barrett, and Simon. Jethro is next. Then Tanner. I haven't made up the profiles for Barrett and Simon yet, but expect me to send them to you in the same PM later, if at all possible and all, eventually, I'm sure. You already have Jethro and Tanner's proposed profiles, I believe, sent your way. I hope you can create them and modify them to be as close as possible to how I proposed each of them to be here for you, of course. But that's entirely up to you here, you know, jg2977.

In any case, let's see which of the eight will get the next Pro Cup title for themselves in their careers, as well, if and when we can. Hopefully each of the teams for them that haven't won any titles in any of their careers will get at least one before each of the players finally retires in their respective careers here, of course, jg2977.

Thank you for your time and attention and all, then, as always, for sure. Talk more later, as time permits and all, Lord willing, I'm sure, of course. CD out.

1882 Ruthlandian Union Awards

1882 Tycobbian Union Awards

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Two awards for Henry Freeman, two for Zebulon Morse, one for K.J. Walton, and one for Jeddy Holmes, this time around. I hope to see all of the relevant awards cards for each of them, along with their regular cards, for the 1880 to 1882 IPA seasons, if they've not already been posted, fairly soon, if at all possible, of course. There are at least a few cards that haven't been posted for them all for those seasons, it seems to me, jg2977.

I will also hope to see some team-related reports for the teams that didn't have them posted earlier after the 1882 IPA regular season soon. And especially for the teams due to get any brand-new players by the start of the 1888 IPA season, at the very latest, of course, here.

I saw one for Denton City's Redbirds, and one for South Fork's Stallions, at least, if not also for Glasco's Celtics, I believe, but maybe not for all the other relevant teams here. Please do feel quite free to take whatever time you might actually need here somehow in order to post all the appropriate screenshots prior to you then starting up the 1883 IPA season with Jethro Morse on Glasco, okay? Thank you. CD out.

Sorry, I will no longer be posting award cards, as I have previously stated. Also, due to changes in my life priorities, I no longer have time to report on your family players. Although you may not think that you are requesting that much, it creates too much extra work for me and makes playing my OOTP dynasty a chore. It's supposed to be a fun and relaxing outlet for me. I need to spend more time practicing music and performing for musical theater productions, and I need to spend more time exercising as well. I will add the latest player for whom you have sent me a profile, Jethro Morse, to Glasco. However, if you really want to follow all of your players, you now have your own dynasty in which to incorporate them, and in your own league you can do with them exactly as you wish.

Like EC said in his own IPA dynasty report, it is too cumbersome and tedious to create so many free agents. Markus and the team have done a wonderful job with OOTP in that the AI should be able to create new players who will be good enough to compete on a major league level. Thus, this will free up time for us to actually enjoy playing the game, and not update rosters for 64 teams ourselves.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Fair enough. I've never tried to be unfair to you, jg2977. I hope you understand that here, of course. I do hope to hear about them periodically, at least, though, if and when I can and all.

As for the other things that you mentioned, I didn't really know those things about what you do for yourself and all. I knew you enjoyed music, at least, but I didn't know what you do, at least for fun, if not for a living, in truth. However, what you do performance-wise, at least, seems rather interesting to me, to be sure.

I'm sure the Freemans will often appear in my dynasties, as will their allies and/or rivals, among various other players. But I still hope to see how the players I've already proposed and may sometime later actually propose to you will ultimately perform later on in your current version of the IPA, you know, at least every once in a while. In any case, you definitely will see me following this dynasty as often and as best as I can in the future, for sure, jg2977. CD out.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Okay, I didn't see the notation about awards cards, actually. You must have added that later, and I probably missed it, as usual. Just so you know. Very well, then, please do as you feel best, at least in terms of cards-posting, if nothing else, either here or in my main graphics thread elsewhere, of course, jg2977. CD out.

[jg2977]

When your players finish their careers in my dynasty, you will see their reports, most definitely. I just can't do the year-to-year reports like you've requested, and I am sorry about that. However, if I am free to just play out my dynasty and not worry about other things, I will progress year-to-year very quickly. I likely won't even post playoff box scores anymore, as I rarely go back and read them. A simple yearly recap at the end of each season will be sufficient enough for me.

Yes, I am very much involved with music, and although it is just a hobby right now and I do make some income from time to time, hopefully one day it can be my full-time career.

You are a good friend to me on this forum, and that's what matters.

[Clovidequano Dovatha]

Of course, I wouldn't mind seeing periodical updates on their careers, if and whenever you like and can and all, while they're each or all still in progress. Or if they each or all might ultimately become coaches later on, once they're done playing in your IPA, for that matter. But that's entirely up to you, you know, jg2977. CD out.
