H2H3 / Hurricanes/Vehemences Blockbuster Deal

Ed is the best H2H'er I've ever seen, but Corky is on fire right now, no matter how good Ed is. This trade was pretty even in my eyes, though Corky is the more active of the two I'd say. Ed's creativity on these smalls maps is unmatched though.

Does Posix even know we've already drafted? haha

^

He's probably letting his team consolidate and get used to being a team as/before they begin working on parks.

Team Hurricanes!!! Run for your life!!! No one is safe!!!!!!

It would be really funny if he traded himself.

I tried, we could have made a park Toon















im not jokeing btw, lmao

Shhh... I'm working on getting rid of Kumba so that the team can have a REAL captain... me.

H2H is the new WWF.

Yes and we've attempted a couple trades although they've fallen through. We have another in progress that looks very likely to succeed, just you wait.

This was a major suprise but it doesn't really look like anyone made a steal here.

The only bad thing about Coaster Ed is that he is dangerously unreliable. I think Kumba has a better team because of it; however if Coaster Ed does show up, you may as well give up.

The Hurricanes get: Corkscrewed and slob

Serves me right for going to Utah for two weeks to work on a film and not telling anyone. I can only describe my reaction to finding about about the redraft as 'pretty fucking pissed' and those who know me know that I don't use those words lightly. I didn't even want to do H2H3 because I don't have an apartment right now and most of my stuff (computer included) is in storage. I was hanging on to be a good sport cause I had agreed months earlier and it seemed unfair to me to drop out after being the number one pick. And even if it was going to be tough to find time to work on parks, I was inspired to do so because of the people I was working with and the ideas we had come up with. Most of the work of parkmaking for me is in the planning anyway. So now I'm back to square one there with new people and I have even less time to think about parks much less work on them. What a mess of incredibly bad timing this whole thing has been. I'm not blaming anyone, I'm just explaining why I'm so damn pissed.

So the question for me is...what do I do now.

I could drop out. That would be the easiest thing for me to do (and some would say the most rational). I don't really have time for it anyway and now a lot of the fun of it for me is gone since I won't be working with Blitz, Phatage, and Darkjanus anymore. I'd feel like a quitter and a jerk though and it certainly wouldn't make me look good to the people of NE. This was what I first wanted to do.

Now that I've been traded, I feel a little insulted on top of being pissed and something in me would love to stay in this anyway and show people up. That's not a personality trait I'm proud of, but it does affect me strongly. It's not about H2H really, I get underestimated all of the time and it might be good to take all of that frustration I'm experiencing right now in my life and career and turn it into something productive.

So that's my honest reaction. Bear with me because I still don't know what I'm going to do with this news. It may take me a couple of days to figure it out. And it has a lot to do with some other decisions I have to make right now. I may have to drop out whether I want to or not if I get on another film crew like the one I'm on now because that means 12 hour or more days 6 days a week.

Shit. Life fucking sucks sometimes.

Oh my.

Yeah. Yeah, totally WWE.

Even moreso than I thought it would be.

I just want to say that when I made the deal I had not heard anything from Ed since word of the re-draft. I really did not think I was giveing Chapel a player that would be consitering quiting...

Ed I hope you can hang in, I wish we never had a re-draft, but shit happens...

Kumba

Kumba

Indeed it does... I was on a team with Toon, John and Kevin. Then again now I'm on a team with X-sector, Leighx and X250. Sure it's a bit of a lose but not the bad of one.

Ed, I hope you can stick around but if you cannot I'm sure everyone will understand.

Not to mention you'd be pretty easy to replace!

Eh, you're just mad the Kings suck this year

But on a serious note,

Ed, hopefully you can understand where I came from when I signed you up. From the times I'd talked to you, you never mentioned being interested in leaving Head2Head, and were always sort of giving me the signs that you didn't ever have the drive to finish a full park, but felt comfortable with doing H2H3. Sign-ups came and I hadn't heard from you, but as I said, you always showed supreme interest in H2H. I felt like if you did want to participate, and missed the re-signups you would have felt even more ripped off. Still...I feel like the redraft in general isn't what's bothering you so much...because this could have conceivably happened in the original H2H (although obviously not for Corkscrewed). All I can say is the same thing I say to all those who get traded, which is not to take it personally. Obviously Kumba is very fond of you and your parkmaking, since he took you number one once again...and you were traded for two of the top ten parkmakers at the site in almost two for one deal, which should prove to you that everyone does not underestimate you. Chapel gave up his whole frontline to get you, and that's a pretty big compliment. I understand that all the people you had hoped to work with are on my team (you're always invited ) but it's not like chapel's team are a bunch of slouches either...he really drastically improved his team since the draft in my opinion.

If you want to leave, then of course I will not try to stop you. We all realize the situation that it would put Chapel in, and hopefully we could find a replacement that could *almost* fill the shoes since you are undoubtably untouchable in H2H (maybe Mala...but what are the odds of that), at least to the point that chapel's whole season isn't compromised. Hopefully we can chat before you make a decision and we can put this whole thing together.

Now that I've been traded, I feel a little insulted on top of being pissed and something in me would love to stay in this anyway and show people up. That's not a personality trait I'm proud of, but it does affect me strongly. It's not about H2H really, I get underestimated all of the time and it might be good to take all of that frustration I'm experiencing right now in my life and career and turn it into something productive.

Lose the ego; it will be your downfall.

Outside of this website, there are many people who want you to fail, or want to believe what you do is of lesser quality than their own; the only way to change these preconceptions is to show them. Perhaps it is that you want to be bathed in a lime green spotlight, but myself, I love being underestimated. If you can do something that they didn't think you can do, not only does it prove your worth, but it's like spitting in their face without the effort of such an action.
