To add to what Knowledge and I have both said about the community and posts further back, I think one thing we need to focus on for the community are the new guys joining. We unfortunately don't have the tools we once did on the offsite so we need to make sure that the new guys have a say in tactics and game planning. Maybe we can have "help the Coach" games where some of the new guys can work with the NT coach with the game planing.....including roster, tactics, and guessing to allow them to have a voice. Something very simple, but a way to get new guys more involved to generate more talk in future conversations.

Question to all candidates:

You have a certain idea for a game-plan that you are very confident in, and you propose your initial idea. Then magiker comes along and presents a VERY different opinion that does not support your initial roster and tactic idea and he too is very confident and set on it. After much debating both you and him still hold your initial roster and tactic opinions and neither person is swayed. Other offsite members are split about 40/60 with what you should do (40 supporting your opinion and 60 supporting magiker's idea). What game-plan do you go with and why?

RamQ,

There is nothing barbarian about the Roman Soldier displayed in your team logo. If you had watched The Eagle - starring Shanning Tatum, you would have known that! Such unsatisfactory attention to detail is a cause for concern.

Should I vote for you, or nah?

Hypothetically is it possible for a candidate to register at 10:59 pm, vote for themselves, make the first cut, declare themselves too good for this country, then withdraw at like 11:01 pm?

Just curious. []

What a question E.B.W. haha.....

Honestly, we have always had great discussion about starting lineups and tactics so I would definitely hear everyone's opinions first before making a decision. I really don't think our opinions would differ that much, but at the end of the day I have said that this is OUR team before it is MY team. So, community will have a lot of say in general tactics and rosters. With that being said though, I want it to be known that I'm not afraid to go against the popular opinion if I really do feel it is best. Still not sure if this will even happen thoughthougjh, but if it does then I will make sure to list all of the reasons why I make a decision.

As for magiker, obviously his opinion will matter. He was the best NT manager we have ever had so he will be a great source of information, but at the end of the day whether Im elected, RamQ, Knowledge, or anyone else is elected we will be the NT manager and have the last say. It's just a matter of communicating why we come to the decisions that we have come to.

Isaiah pretty much summed it up. If Magiker's gameplan was backed up by the majority, it should be the call. Everyone's opinion is valuable and if most lean towards Magiker's, it's a tough call but one to be made. After all these guys did win gold at worlds, in pretty dominating fashion too.

At this point this purely hypothetical player would probably be about 28 years old so I would try to sneak out 1 more pop of JS,JR,PA,HA,OD,ID,RB,SB. Then I'd say it's time to get the Stamina and FT training.
