So far, my experience in the league has been great. Trying to explain the league to outsiders and the amount of time and effort that people can put into it would make most of us sound slightly mad. The amount of hopes and dreams put onto little dots in a questionable sim is immense. If you buy into it like most people seem to do though, its loads of fun.
On a fundamental level, the league consists of the sim and the players in the league. As we all quite rightfully hate the sim, the thing that really makes the league is the players and people you meet in the league. I feel lucky to have been part of the S22 draft class and to have been drafted by the Coyotes as the whole Locker Room was full of amazing people. I can’t name them all or that would nearly the 400 words, but the team spirit and game time atmosphere was what got me really hooked on the league. I know lots of them will go onto bigger and better things, in both life and the league (apart from Matty, he sucks lmap).
As far as my player goes, my DSFL season was great stats wise and we made the Ultimini so it’s almost everything you could ask for. Moving up to the NSFL as a true rookie was always going to be a challenge and put a dent in the stats column, especially in a low volume stat position such as DL. I missed my start of season stats goals by 1 TFL but was proud to be part of an excellent Yellowknife defence. The heartbreak of losing in the playoffs was the real disappointment of the year, but hopefully we can be back again next year with another very strong team to compete and finally win the Ultimus.
The draft is easily the most fun part of the league to me. Watching the S21 NSFL draft was what got me active in the league and being in both of the drafts as a player is even more exciting. The production quality is insane and really gets everyone hyped up for their new teams. I still get to partake in draft season now, with scouting for Kansas City. This is nearly as exciting as you get to look for new players joining the league and help get them interested in the league, as well as getting the best possible start to your teams’ season.
The league as a whole has improved in the short time I’ve been here. The infrastructure has improved, and I see a bright future for all the teams now. While nonsense still roams freely across the league, I feel most of it is more trivial and friendly. The ‘Choosing Kindness’ message that was put out last season is a very important one and this season has been put into practice better by most people. Competitiveness is fine, but once we go too far, the fun aspect of the league is lost so ensuring this message is continued in coming seasons is vital.
