Broward83 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 I liked one of the FC names, personally. I mean, yeah.. it'd be geeky/cool to have a TSM based name, but it kinda limits us to what we could name ourselves. *Shrug* Ultimately its up to Ced since he purchased the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 Well, I think Trujillo's the very largest "T-city" in South America, but it's already been used in our league. Next would be Turmero, Venezuela at 360,000. Actually though, I think just using Tijuana would be fine since Mexico doesn't have it's own league. It would be just like Canadian teams playing in US-based leagues now. Salsa Makers could be another good "SM" nickname too? Or we could just go with sadomasochists. The Turmero Sadomasochists sounds like a pretty bad ass name actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ced 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 Rushing through the computer lab between breaks here... I'll be handing out 1-yr $600/day contracts but I'll bump the signing bonus for TSM'ers to $7,500 so people can get some intense training and some neat equipment. I have to offer ~$650/day minimum to level 4 players so I'm overpaying the lot of us because you're in the clique. Crooked dealings? Rock! Technically, yes, I have final say on all matters on everything that goes, but I'm going to try to keep it somewhat democratic. I'm standing by Smartmarks FC (insert nickname here), but Trinidad Smilin' Monkeys and other TSM acronyms will be considered. I also noted everyone who sent me a message so I should have contract offers sent by midnight PST. EDIT: Changed up the daily rate for contracts but upped the signing bonus. EDIT: Nuts to that. Padded paychecks for everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ced 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 When you leave for the next team, you can tell the press how it wasn't about money but simply because you love the game. Grand purge of human non-TSM talent is going to happen soon. Abuse...of...power...WOOO~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broward83 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 I'll have my PR rep point out that I did love my time in South America, but my new team has given me X amount of reasons to be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ced 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 So what are you going to do about the other human players that are on the team. Also, should we have a spokesman/woman on the team to post at their forums? Answer is that TSM'ers get automatic starting positions in all vacancies. On a side note, IK Kool Jew looks to be the third player in the LB corp, but I'm getting a 500 error so I can't update at GLB right now. I've had a non-TSM guy already ask for a release (a LV 1 HB), so he's probably going to get it. I'm dumping lower leveled human players in positions we've already filled, but I'm holding players where we haven't filled vacancies for the time being. For human players that have higher abilities, they'll be dealt to other non-competing teams for cash considerations, other TSM players and/or backup players. Or cut if I can't find a deal for them. As for a TSM spokesperson at GLB, I leave that spot open if somebody wants to step up. The preceding statements may change sometime down the line, but for now I'm going to keep the team practically all-TSM right now. That said, as long as people keep interest in the game, I promise to tweak the contracts as needed so everyone can continue to improve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
