After going through an entire season and giving it much thought and weighing the pros/cons for a considerable amount of time, I’ve come to the conclusion that _Slack_ is not something I am big on. I understand many live in the “now” constantly but I do think there is something to the “old fashioned” way of running a league and as one GM pointed out to me, it was a fun new toy at first but its pretty much the same people on now and that’s it.
I am going to go back to doing what I know how to do best and that is run the league based around the forums. I will leave slack up for live sims as well as a basic chat channel for those select handful who comes on here all the time, I will continue to be part of that group as well but I am a person who _NEEDS_ to be organized and to me _Slack_ is quite chaotic. Things are hard to find, its hard to see the last time people checked in, etc.
With that being said:
1) I am going to sim THROUGH ARBITRATION this afternoon and up to DAY ONE of Free Agency
2) Reveal the results of the ABL Amateur Draft Lottery
3) Clean up the boards and clean up slack
4) Introduce a new roll call before we get into Free Agency to see who is still on board and who would not want to be continue without Slack.
5) I will then go into recruiting mode to fill the vacant spots (we got 3 now)
I really feel, the fast pace of this is okay in the beginning but man are we missing some good stuff. The Power Rankings, articles, etc are things that create a great league history and I don’t think we can properly do that with this.
I am a “forum guy” and so I know for the ABL to be truly a great league under my watch, this is the right direction to go in.
