Reactions to CoDCast #58

 

 

Dear @Beketov,

 

Happy 1000 CodCast & 10 Year Anniversary week to you good sir. Congratulations and jubilations to you. 

 

It has been many moons since I tuned in to your show, but it feels good to be back. Hopefully I can actually drag these words out into the length of a Media Spot. 

 

@Kendrick #1:
I will tell you who the worse free agent signing in history is! Phil Rafter when he signed in New York. He should have been epic there... but he was a pile of poop. He let the team down. Oo what about the 15 year deal for Rick DiPietro, who had basically a career ending injury a few month after that deal went down? Why would you do 15 years though!? Who is your financial adviser? I need to speak with them.

 

Kendric #2:
Rebuild for the Red Wings was definitely imminent. Unless you are snagging a very young free agent, then it doesn't really make sense. I mean, we got Marleau, a 37 year old, for 3 years, but we are in a position where we need a couple of wiley vets to really compliment our youthful speed and energy. Oh side note - YES SHADOW OF MORDOR IS FANTASTIC! Loved the way of the ork hierarchy structure. 

 

Phil #1:
There are a lot of memories. It's amazing. I keep remembering more and more as I look back. First ballot HoFer feels good. Beketov's induction that quickly was definitely warranted! Oh yea #Beke4Builder. I sported the hashtag for you!! Yea Holik has fantastic career stats. Crazy to think that he only earned one Shaw Trophy. 

 

Phil #2:
Yea I miss slobo. He was a very valuable member. Always nice to me too. djscooter I think was his name haha. Yea they are all the pioneers. They set the legends! I keep tabs on scotty. But I actually believe it is Knight that developed the player builds that everyone uses nowadays. Any lockerroom with the Player Efficiency Chart was David's doing. He looked at all the slider settings in the sim and calculated each attributes worth for each type of player build. I also feel like anyone would pick people that were around when they joined the league to come back. There's a reason we've stuck around and those first few months in the VHL set the tone. We will always remember those who made that instant impact on us. Where's Arce? Where's Nagger? Where's @Quik (omg he's back!) Where's Redbull? haha

 

Phil #4:
ooo I didn't notice that trend! Canadian, European, American, European. Nice. I've only ever created English players. Always my first name, then an important Athlete's surname to me. Yea Roman is a great name. 

 

Phil #3:
Well people joining wouldn't know that there was a development league. However, I like the idea of dropping it in favour of a different league set up with promotion and relegation of teams  like in football (soccer), with higher caps for the teams in the Top League, and slightly lower in the Second League. Most of the young teams will be motivated to stay active AS A TEAM to get up to that top league and EARN promotion. And then we all have interest in both leagues, rather than now, where we all ignore that league. Yea I agree with @Devise, we need to condense so we have LR activity. It's so much more fun when we can have that. It's true, it's all about the community

 

 

Overall another great podcast. I have missed these, along with @der meister's !

Is that 2/2 for Point Tasks in the last two weeks? holy shit @Devise! What is happening!?

[Beketov 9,102]

Well written good sir, fun to see feedback again.

 

also, thanks for not pointing out that I can't count, though I guess I'm doing it now anyway. I updated my emblem to say 32/35 when I still had 4 guns left to gold. I did end up finishing the Oni 2 games after recording this so it's accurate now at least. 2 more guns + 1 kill (I need 1 more EMC kill) left and I'll finally be done the camo grind! I barely remember what a normal gun feels like.
