i'm sorry you took it personal. but i've never liked that you decided to have a private website where to discuss about your NT. As you saw today, it is not only because of "spies" that NT can be damaged...
And dunno how you can say Faust sucks, but I'll take it as you probably played longer than me.



As Juice said, many NT's have offsite private forums. Hell, a GM set up a lot of them for countries who wanted them. It's nice to have things like tactical discussions and databases of player skills open to members of your country.

As for the outcome for the US National Team, of course it is disappointing. I haven't been paying enough attention to it to lay any blame, as I've been working England into this big tourney dealie, but I'm sure there are game situations that could have been handled better. Though, with only 5 games and against the class of the BB World, the margin for error is pretty small.

i'm not gonna discuss your reasons to keep secret the NT debates. but you understand that giving you the updates infos without having feedbacks is kinda bad for foreigner trainers. it'd be way more honest to say: i'm going to only have players trained by US users.

It wouldn't be honest at all - we don't have a policy of USA users only.

We have 5 of 14 players that come from foreign users.

I've sent you some feedback about Faust, and we appreciate the updates...there's a couple of things he needs work on, and if you want to discuss it, send me a BB-Mail.

It would be honest, except it would be a lie. I'm a Canadian user, coaching the Canadian NT, and I have a player on the USA NT. I've politely shared information and discussed my player with Vikman and JuicePats, including when my player was not on the team, and they were always forthcoming and clear.

I think your problem with the USA NT has something to do with your player, or perhaps you.

ok, this is the last message. i'm very surprised everyone likes to go on personal.
i weekly sent updates about my player to both Vikman and JuicePats.
After having only received "thanks" as answer for one season i stopped providing information cause it seemed to me he wasn't interesting for the NT. I went on updating last week when Vikman asked me if I was still training him. That's the story.
Maybe he's the player (i hope for US users) but not being able to know the level among others is tuff to say, no?
Or maybe me, yeah, that's why this is my last message.

well the lack up updates prob didn't help, as a few weeks ago we added another center and faust was one of the last two considered. if we didnt have updated skills that prob cost him a spot. 19yo, so he was a likely add next season either way.

Also you can just ask me if you want to know. I have so much going on sometimes that I forget.
