Positives & Negatives of the changes.
If, as seems likely, I will be kicked out of this game in a few days because I'm not going to start changing browsers etc, on my pc just to accommodate a game that I've played for 4 years without any problem, I thought I'd go through the pluses and minuses of leaving the game.
Firstly the NEGATIVES. I will miss the friendship of over 100 in game players that I've built up through time. Watching, supporting and gifting to likeminded people has been great. Trying to win matches / tournaments has been a challenge which I've also enjoyed.
POSITIVES about leaving. First of all, no more wasting money on something, which after all, is just a fictional game. Then there's no more sitting up until the early hours of the morning at the start of each season, eagerly awaiting the new league set ups. No more getting up at 4am to play an away fixture in Thailand. No more planning days around fixtures so that I don't miss crucial matches.
So on the whole, sad as it will be, I'll probably miss the game for a couple of days, but I'll get over it, and maybe even find a better football game to play, where the manager has more influence over how his team performs, rather than it just being down to shear luck, and what the programme decides should happen.
