As I'm not yet fully HG at the moment, and I will have to wait until after the draft, I did not want to take somebody else's place.

But, if a decision is needed, write me in for the Season 3 of HGL, please! Thank you.

I see your point now, and that's very considerate of you kecal, I appreciate that kind of attitude so thank you!

I have now added you to a list of teams interested in starting on Season 3, here: (327516.86).

Especially as MrJ has promised to create us a new random schedule (with his automatic league schedule creator), that wouldn't create a problem in terms of accepting new team(s) for HGL Season 3...

Opposing views are being listened as well if some current managers have them, of course, but I don't think adding 1 team would create a negative impact in practically any area (apart from not retaining the standard of having 16 teams and perhaps statistics not being similarly comparable from season to season), but on the other hand this is the great part of this kind of "open league" that HGL is, that it can also be flexible if needed/so chosen.

I also added a + sign after name of Hårdboll, as he announced on September 3rd that he'd wish to continue playing in HGL during Season 3. Great decision, Spela!

I say : CHEATINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is the damn commissionner ???????????

I can't believe that such treachery could happen in this magnificent league of virtuous managers. When I came here, one says that I would only meet chivalrous players, with a high level of dignity.

Instead of that, what do I find ? STAR players arriving after the all-start game ?
Why such a painful disapointment ?
Why such an enormous disillusion ?
Why do I live any more ?

Ahhhh, mad world !


(I've learned many new english words today !)

I'm here demars, but so sorry I can't help because I can't see, I see only stars! (pun intended) ;P

Hey all, I realized today that I hadn't completed the BB tutorial back when I started with this account and so I finally did it and through it got a new player (55180719) on my roster. I will keep him at first, as I still haven't filled out my salary cap and figure out at the end of the season, if I actually need him going forward. It is almost the end of the HGL season and statistically the changes are minimal, but still here are the updated ones: with him, my top-8 salary once again increases by 1k to 252k in total and my average top-8 age raises from 23,3 y to 23,8 y.

Thanks for your message LennuK.!
Even though changes are minimal as you said, I really do appreciate that kind of eye for detail (and helpful attitude of yours) that you re-counted your averages after such change. :) I'll try to remember to update that change to all necessary places soon enough (but not right now)..

HGL Season 2 Playoffs' First Round match schedule and Official Regular Season Rankings (ORSR) have now been published in a Playoff-post, here: (327517.7).

Please start organizing matches as soon as possible!
[..]
4 best teams of Regular Season will get free (read: earned) ticket to Second Round, but all teams ranked from 5th to 12th in ORSR, lets start organizing First Round matches ASAP!


All 4 First Round Playoff match links can now be found from Official Playoff post, here: (327517.7)

Thanks for every team doing the work on First Round match organizing process for organizing matches properly!
Lets's keep up the good work and concentration until the very end of the Season 2, as we want to continue same good streak - no Playoff matches have ever been left unplayed or had to be re-matched due to negligence.

Similarly, I give applause to all of you, as I didn't notice any match with incorrect details (court balance is the only thing I can't verify before match has been played so that's what I mean here) during whole Regular Season - nice work everybody, once again (so 2 perfect seasons in a row now)!
Here we can see what we can accomplish if we are committed working together (and do things as well as we can) to make HGL as good as it can be, and this is an example that everybody has a role in it/quality of everybody's actions make difference, because a manual league like HGL is formed of small things/pieces, such as organizng each match separately...

I'd say, he will be averaging a triple double from now on. Who knew you could get star reinforcements for the play-offs as a HG team.

With the play-off game on Sunday against Elan Demars, which could very well be (read as "probably is") my last one this season, I don't think this change in the table(s) has too much urgency anyway. Maybe it's sufficient to just wait until the new season updates are live.

At least my next opponent is aware of the new "star" I schemed into my team

I agree, certainly not a top priority (to make this extremely marginal change to couple of posts).

Exactly, it´s most important thing that you remembered to mention about the roster change.
