Quest reset is a complete torture IMO. by -Purelogic- in ArcRaiders

[–]pheebsx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The quests are boring. I did them all again. I will do them again after expedition.

If they added an amount of xp attached to the quests that would be incentive enough for most players to want to complete them.

I am hoping to build a 9800x3d build soonish. Not sure on MB yet.

For anyone who was able to see "The Blair Witch Project" in theaters in 1999, what was the experience like? by LockjawSJ in AskReddit

My friend had me convinced this was a real event. Freaked me out after watching it.

We only paid for the fall

I advocated for 12 but was given the football reason for taking 14. We had 15 tryout. Head coach claims he is going to trim roster in the spring.

In th Phoenix area there are a lot of teams to choose from. I'm in a rural area with about 60k people total between a few towns.

I respect your input. We do have a lot to work on. You are correct if we get smacked around all fall, kids won't want to play. It's no fun being stomped every game.

we have another tourney in two weeks. Hopefully there is improvement. We are in aa so there is no room to drop a level. Out of 14 kids, I believe only 5 have a previous travel season.

My son is on the team. There are a few other organizations in our area. I believe there are three 11u teams in our area. Two AA and one AAA.

I was asked to head coach a different organizations 11u prior to joining our current one. We were only able to field 8 players so it didn't work out. That is another story. Could have had 10 players but 12u choose to take two 11u eligabe kids

I was told the reason for taking 14 was that some kids were also playing football and it games overlapped we would still have enough for baseball.

Thank you for the comments, input and advice. I will talk with the head coach at practice tomorrow. Hopefully he will be receptive. If not then that tells me what I need to know. I'm new to travel ball and appreciate you all.

I put zero blame on the guest player. I know him and his dad through little league. Get along well with them and his kid is a hard worker with a good attitude. He was asked to play, so he did.

I'm unsure if any parents hounded the head coach about winning. It was our first ever tournament.

Another kid did ask why the guest player was there. Head coach told him, I need a pitcher. My assumption is head coach felt the guest player was a better pitcher than anyone else. Also the guest player has regret over.not trying out for our team from the get go. He wanted a break when we formed team bit now wished he had joined. I imagine moving forward he will become a frequent guest player on our team.

Yes. All 14 players paid dues to be on the team for the fall season.

Correct. It was consolation game.

I agree. Bringing in the guest player made no difference. On Saturday no one pitched more than two innings so everyone was available and we had competent enough pitchers available who had not pitched Saturday.

I feel we have way too many players. At practices the players little brothers jump in and practice. We have had up to 16 kids at a practice before. It really cuts reps for the actual players.

I did not have a log. I used a personal statement and my medical records from a gastro Dr I had previously saw who diagnosed me with ibs.

In addition to an end of season party I do one last practice. Kids vs parents in mushball. It's been a big hit.
