for me in australia, i know i will lose touch, and i like the idea of talking and competing with those from around the world, or the usa, but getting emails to stay in touch would be a goos idea, especially when you have been chatting for a year, or 5 in some peoples case

Perhaps the forums could develop into a general gaming site.. your Shot online, GW's poker etc..
This is a great community, many friends and adversaries have been made here...
It would be a shame for it to fade away if Smallball disintegrates..

Me thinks someone has a plan. Cool
At least I hope you do. Maybe it is time to morph this community into the next gmae forum. GW's Poker, hmm... I think I might just be willing to give something like that a try.

Maybe I am mistaken, I was cruising through the smallball mall and saw 700 teams for sale. I thought he was selliing 800 teams? Did the Commish change it? Or maybe I was just mistaken, I guess I am just in the finding the Commish craze. You know, kinda like spottind Elvis.

I think a lot of us are wondering why it continues to go on. I've followed the whole thread and there are definitely 5 or 6 new topics all within this thread.
I agree with Snyder, Shut it down. Let's start new threads.. especially the one about a separate community forum if SB dies (that I am interested in).

If you have barely read this thread why would it bother you? It's pretty common for most threads to break down into other areas. It's like having a conversation, conversations rarely stay on topic for the entire conversation.

Yes, I personally like that it stays near the top in hope that SOMEONE, ANYONE will see this immediately upon logon. Even if it is new ownership, so they can try to correct things.

Your post on the phone blog page made it kind of difficult for people to link to it now saying they spotted him.

Was that one word really needed?

I was the one that located him on the phone site. No clue how long ago the validated quote from commish is from, but I assume it was fairly recent. In Kindred's defense, I do not believe that quote from Kindred is really his.

What phone blog? I don't know what you're even speaking of GW...I think someone is probably using my name again, like they tried to "imply" over in the game voting site.

I just commented on that on another forum earlier. I had forgotten about being totally puzzled yesterday as to what GW was talking about. It's all clear now. Well that sucks that someone posted under your name then. Hope no one does that with my name (or should I even really care?) Rolling Eyes


What the hell is that "phone blog " anyway?

I've been playing this game for the most part for 4 years this next month. I understand there are many problems and such, but the PL is working and I'm having a great time with the MLB league and such. Instead of being bitter and angry all day, why not try to make the best of a bad situation and just deal with it for the time being. I just see a lot of people complaining who really have little reason to.

This statement does not refer to anyone who has not received tickets or such from the smallball mall. That is not right and should be dealt with immediately. But as for gameplay, I find it hard to complain since everything (baseball-wise at least) is running up to par that I've noticed.

I definately vote to keep the forums a hangout area by the way. As long as TumoR goes away. Surprised Wink

this link has a picture bar on the side.. with commish's pic.. they appear to be a match.. so now we at least know what the man we're looking for looks like.. lol

well, i am not an attorney, but i think that because of the possibility of the tickets going to a spam folder and people getting there money back anyways, yes there is a wait, but court will provide that as well, so that idea isnt really going to work, i say move forward, forget the tickets, buying etc,,

Crying or Very sad Wink

For those of you worried about Smallball shutting down:

http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/index.jsp

Enter smallball.com

It looks as though the smallball.com domain has been renewed through 2010. Theoretically, there should be smallball up until that point. I know that doesn't help you out w/ tickets and what not, but at least there is some reassurance that this game will not just cease to exist.

That is really strange. It must have been renewed yesterday after I checked this.
I see smallball.org still expires Oct. 22,2006
