This thread marks the progress of the Wyoming Wildfire, a franchise being operated under the GroupThink concept. This is the year 2022-year six of the fledgling expansion team's existence. Many of our original players are seeing their contracts expire, we really need to start making our run.
If you'd like to read through the details from our earlier years, including some helpful background on the concept and the rules involved, here is a link:
Wyoming Wildfire, 2017 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000220.html)
Wyoming Wildfire, 2018 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000238.html)
Wyoming Wildfire, 2019 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000245.html)
Wyoming Wildfire, 2020 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000247.html)
Wyoming Wildfire, 2021 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000259.html)
The basic concept of GroupThink (a deliberately temporary name that seems to have stuck) is that we have several forum participants working together to manage an FOF 2001 franchise. Several people have defined roles, and some others are just ad-hoc contributors, which is welcome.
The principal managers of the team are:
Owner: QuikSand
General Manager: TheRoyalOne
Director of Scouting & Player Personnel(Veterans): RPI-Fan
Director of Scouting & Player Personnel(Young): Daimyo
Offensive Coordinator: FishFan
Defensive Coordinator: Subby
Special Teams Coordinator: TheDawgsAreOut
Salary Cap and Financial Advisor: ez
Director of PR & Marketing: Fritz
We've had very helpful participation from a number of others, and welcome more. The job of the people listed above manage the various input, as it relates to their field, and to implement things into a sound strategy.
We have sought to find one central location for the game files, but have instead seemingly settled on a one-step-at-a-time system, where each manager seems to post wherever it suits him best. I recommend searching through the most recently active threads in the main forum, where you will likely find a link.
Important: By downloading the file. You are agreeing to play by our rules. Chief among them is no simming ahead. If you want to join in and comment, fine-but do not interfere with everyone's enjoyment by violating this concept.
That said, we'll be having several different people manage their portions of the season, and we'll use this thread as a home for the reports and updates on our progress. Discussion and debate about team decisions and so forth will continue to be housed in the main forum, generally in threads labeled with the "WW:" or "GroupThink:" indicators.
There are two standing links, where our Offensive and Defensive Cordinators have posted an ongoing annitated depth chart, which might help focus and spur discussion. You may locate them here:
Wildfire Offense (http://64.45.24.217/wildfire/offense.html)
Wildfire Defense (http://www.geocities.com/fofbrowns)
Feel free to read along, look around, and chime in-- your input is welcome…
