12) 5 TPE - This task is exclusive to non-recreate rookies of the S23 class and later. In 400 words or more, how has your experience been in the league? Who have you met that has made your time here more fun, friendly, and exciting? Have you been satisfied with your player’s early start? What was it like being drafted for the first time? Do you have any comments or suggestions for the entire league that you think should be implemented?
As a S25 Prospect I’ve had limited experience with the league so far, however I feel that during that time I’ve learned a lot about the league and community. I am absolutely amazed that something like this exists and is as large as it seems, and look forward to adding to it while playing!
My experience has been pretty great so far with most everyone that I’ve met being helpful and fun. I’ve got to admit that the amount of information and nuance you need to pick up to get started was a bit overwhelming, but the guides on the forums were very clear and helpful in getting that kick-started. I think there’s something for everyone to be able to contribute to, whether that be commentary, editorials, graphics, or the various league jobs I’ve seen so far. The various team discords along with the league ones are all unique and fun to be in, it’s been a blast.
Speaking of the discords and being a prospect, I’ve met quite a few team representatives and players while being scouted, and a few have stood out in particular. Both Thor (Myrtle Beach) and qWest (Portland) were very very helpful in guiding me on what to prioritize with my player build. Because I’m open to a shift to a couple other positions, they let me know how that would work and what stats would translate over if I went that route. Great to know ahead of time so I don’t have any TPE wasted due to poor planning. They were also helpful about the league in general and great to talk to. Because of that, I think I’m pretty happy with my player’s start on the road to being drafted. I’m still working on how to optimize TPE gain and am feeling more confident with that by the day. Hopefully I can make an impact on whatever team is lucky enough to draft me!
There's only one thing I would think could be improved upon at first glance, and it’s how a user invokes changes to their character and tracks that. The player update system and layout could probably use an overhaul. It’s not hard to navigate once you get the hang of it, but a more centralized GUI-centric system might be easier for new players to grasp. A migration away from forum based to a standalone webapp or at least one where you manage your player might be useful. Just to reiterate, it’s great as is, but that might be a pretty cool change if it were ever to occur.
19) 2.5 TPE - Make a scouting report for any of the ISFL or DSFL draftees. Show their stats, abilities, TPE, highlights, or anti-Semitic Instagram posts. I’m joking about that last one, please don’t bring up bigotry.
Djibutee McJimmothy is an incoming S25 Rookie who was a standout performer for the University of Miami after being scouted in his home nation of Rwanda. While at The U, he spent time on both sides of ball, setting season records at TE and having several sacks and pressures at DE. He was forced to sit out his junior year due to a torn achilles, but spent that time rehabbing and training for the DFSL. During his last active season, he took 65 receptions for 940 yards and 14 TDs, and 6 tackles for loss with 5 sacks, while leading The U to another Orange Bowl victory.
He’s declared for the draft as a TE, but many experts are predicting he could be moved to OL or DE, as he is familiar with playing both if necessary. He’s coming into the draft at ~100 TPE with tons of potential to grow with the right coaching. He’s a bit raw in the skills department, but he is a standout athlete with 70 Speed and 60 Strength out the gate! Scouts are projecting him as a mid 2nd round pick due to his versatility and potential. During interviews, the ever enigmatic Djibutee claimed he was intrigued with the possibility of creating a DFSL dynasty, the likes of which has never been seen before.
16) 2.5 TPE - Lay out the steps you think your team should take over the offseason to improve. This must be more than just a list over an image. Graphics only.
My plan for the MBB to become champions in 3 simple steps. Wont be offended if it's too low quality for credit, still learning PS and having fun with the experience!
