Preseason S5 there was an announcement, but it was a day wrong. I dont think it was even streamed. There is nothing up on the twitch. There was no follow up, nothing posted "Hey forgot today but tune in tomorrow" How can anyone have faith in the announcements, you are batting 33% and not correcting mistakes.
Seriously I don't think this is very hard. Put a new button "Now Streaming" change it from red to green.
You're jumping over the very convenient fact that our simmer decided to up and vanish with the files. The only file that we had for S4 with updates. So we had to replicate all the updates on the spot. If you think it was us just spot deciding that oh fuck it lets randomly move the games around the bants then think again. We don't ever want to move sim days unless something is entirely necessary to do so.
http://nsfl.jcink.net/index.php?showtopic=6479 Heres the S5 announcement that was made. If you wanna pay some close attention to the dates, this was during y'know the christmas holidays which we felt might not be the best time for the sim league preseason to begin. Combine the SHEER lack of reliability we had with anybody with the title of simmer and all the work to do, despite most of us putting in easily 7+ hours a day trying to input entire leaguewide player additions and updates, you are completely misunderstanding the work required with nobody volunteering to do it. When we do get somebody to volunteer, they dissapear.
Heres where S5 was pushed back http://nsfl.jcink.net/index.php?showtopic=6982. This announcement was made on the forums and discord. A full two days before it began, ample time was given to let GM's and players update their dc's and strats. The night went off without a hitch.
I could link the DSFL one too which is tonight and had a further 3 days of time.
S5 Preseason wasn't streamed because we tried , we spent fucking hours inputting that shit that it drove us insane. NONE OF US knew the sheer hours it took to be simmer because, you know what? None of us had ever been simmer before. I'd say for complete rookies we're doing a pretty A+ job.
"Seriously I don't think this is very hard. Put a new button "Now Streaming" change it from red to green." You have absolutely no idea, my friend.
