Move back to HW?

I was discussing this again with Brian at the trade deadline and we both think it might be in the best interest of the league to move back now that Matt isn't as involved with the site anymore. The installed userbase of the site could give our recruitment a boost (I think every vet here will agree it was easier to find GMs when we were there than it has been here)

The move wouldn't be right away, it would coincide with the pre-season next year. Brian needs time to prepare the forums for our return if we choose to do so.

So I'm asking everyone again, move or stay?

If we don't count GMs that haven't been here all year, I do believe we've already got a majority in favour of moving back.

So the first pre-season sim will be posted on HW.

The HQ system won't change, lines and info will be sent as they are right now

Well, that was a fast vote. I'll be working on the boards in the coming days/weeks (if we're waiting until preseason, it'll be a couple more months here); are there any changes to the setup that anyone would like to recommend? Creation/merging of sub-forums, ordering of said forums, stuff like that.

One that I've pondered is to scrap the HWL Office sub-forum and simply pin the relevant topics on the main board (the one that is visible to everyone). That might help to stir up some attention rather than having it in a members-only sub-forum.

We're looking into 'rejigging' the look of HW over the next little while. (I say rejigging as without any graphic design knowledge whatsoever, it won't look too much different in the end, but I digress.) As a result, this may be a good time to put an HWL banner on the main site that would redirect to the HWL forums.

The banner would need to be 182 x 64 to match the other banner we have on there presently (for my contracts page).

Anyone want to consider tackling this? I think it would be a nice visual aid to draw some attention to the league. When we tried to turn the old site off (I say tried as evidently we can't take the site offline for some reason), we saved all the relevant league pics here. Perhaps something in there could help with this banner?

My wife is a graphic designer, I'll see if I can get her to make something up for us.

I got some mad skills with Paint. The pics of Tlusty and Maca or Tlusty with Trizz are just amazing examples of what I can do.

More Benelux!

In other news, I don't know that I can remain a member in this league guys, move or not. Things have amped up on my end, life wise, and I really don't have the time at all, especially with 70hr work weeks starting immediately and school on the horizon.

That said, I still vote to move back to HW.
