I look at them, but I preferred your old style with 'Key performers'. (Y)

I need someone to help me make a new sig please.

The one I like most gets 25 points. :)

What part of 'Sit Needs A New Sig' do you now understand?

What kind: Any. Be creative.

EDIT: My apologies everybody! I got the seeding mixed up. The Kings are the West's number 2 seed - not the Hornets. Records are all identical, that is why I was confused.

Not as good as the other one, but far more polished.

Wow, Pretty impressive Dare.

And I think everyone will agree, the grey jersey doesn't look too hideous on the white background. :lol:

Can we take out 'Sit Presents' and maybe play around with the font? Maybe have it in different color too. It's looking good.

Let's see if anyone else has anything up their sleeve.

And sorry Lamrock, I'd prefer something more 'professional' this time. :P

You should wait until after ALIB III have officially been announced association of the year 2010 and story of the year 2010 so you can put the credentials in the sig :wink:

Yep, I asked Dare to play round with the font.

Which one do you guys like better?

And what's your favourite Dare?

Can you get the original one please with yellow but take out 'Sit presents'? I wanna see what that looks like!

I agree, but I'm talking about the association section though, aren't they separate? :wink:

as for the sig, second and fourth one looks best

Thanks Hov. :)

I like it except I'd like to see Kidd in it too. :P

And Dare hasn't won it yet... looking forward to seeing if anyone else wants to have a stab at it.

I've decided to award 10 points for participation to help you out with the player rewards.

Improve Your Player and All-NEW Player Influence


Improve Your Player

Every participant has a certain number of points that they will be able to use on improving attributes of their virtual player. You only have one chance to use all these points so don’t waste your points (i.e. any leftover points are not able to be brought forward to the next tipping competition).

For every Skill-based attribute, it costs you 4 points in order to improve that certain attribute by 1. For every Physical-based attribute, it costs you 8 points in order to improve that certain attribute.

Skill-based attributes are skills like shooting, dribbling, passing, rebounding, etc. Physical-based attributes includes attributes like strength, speed, endurance, as well as mental attributes such as awareness. If you are unsure whether the attribute you want to include is a skill-based or physical-based one, you are able to post and pose your question.

A quick example of how to let me know how you want to improve your player:

Player: 75 points
Three point shooting + 5 (20 points)
Mid range shooting + 4 (16 points)
Layup + 3 (12 points)
Stamina + 3 (24 points)
3 Points left over that cannot be spent


All-NEW Player Influence

Here is a brand new scheme that gives you more control over the fortunes of your virtual player.

Complain About Role On Team: 100 points
Demand Trade: 200 points
Demand Trade and Request Destination: 250 points

The points listed are minimum values. The more points you spend, the stronger your request will be. If you don’t like being a benchwarmer, you can complain about your role. The more points you use, the stronger your complaint will be. It may result in a teammate being traded away or you forcing your way into the starting five. For example, spend 150 points to complain about your role and you are more likely to succeed with your complaint than spending just 100 points.

If you don’t like your team, spend at least 200 points to demand a trade. To ensure your trade demand does not fall upon deaf ears, spend more points to get your point across.

There are no guarantees that your player’s wishes will be heard and the only way to get past this is to spend more points.

Points

You can accumulate points during any time of the season by participating in contests and also by posting articles that provide a different view of my story. These points may be cashed in: at the conclusion of the postseason, before the regular season begins and All-Star weekend.

Good luck!

THANK YOU READERS!

Thank you everyone for continuing to read this story. We've come up to yet another milestone.

And I have great news for all of you.

I have decided that this story will continue despite 2k11 being released in a week's time. I have all of you to thank and as long as you are not bored with the story, I am extending the shelf life of this story for another 2 seasons - regardless of Jason Kidd's 'retirement pending'. I want to continue to tell the story of the Seattle Stealth.

So I thank everyone who has been reading and everyone who are still following. :)
