August 2010 SP Team Members

[BurtWH]

It's time to start thinking about the August 2010 SP Team selection for the GFN Forum Wars. Next week we will enter July 2010 and need to get he selection process identified and posted. I think we may have some issues getting 15 members and two alternates. I say this based on the site selection and comments already posted about that site. The sooner we get started, the better. :)

count me out, got enough sites already

I can't fault your decision Bob! There are several others that feel that same way. I'm hopeful that we can still put together enough to represent the forum. I don't plan to invest in that site, just enough to play and that's only if I get selected to represent SP. :)

not interested. instead of focusing on growing membership, we have the forum wars which is a clusterfuck imo. we need members, and in order to get members we need games, a regular schedule. i mean what is the appeal for potential members in this? none that i can see. new members want freerolls, money added games, and oh yeah, freerolls. i apologize if i stepped on any toes with this, but someone needs to say it. its just a complete joke that we are supposed to get excited about forum wars when quite honestly if we dont get our shit together, there wont be a forum or forums to have forum wars on.

how come when i say that i get in trouble.

[ythelongface]

give it time Bob. im sure the shit will hit the fan soon enough, but like I say, something had to be said.

We have much to work on as a forum and hopefully we can make some progress on that in the coming weeks. I'm just one of those people that feels that if we are going to field a team for this event, we need to get started early and not wait until the last minute. If we can't get enough involved, it will not be because we waited until the week prior. At least I hope not! :)

The incentive is a $11.00 ticket and a shot at a $250 Guaranteed Bounty Tounament. All 75 players are supposed to get this, so that equals the buy-in for all four games. I recall Dustin and I earning $365.00 the last time we got an opportunity for some bonus money. :lol:
