Hi! :D

WPL player here looking for a team.

Of 168 photographers in WPL 3 I came in 40th on the MVP rankings.

I can be unpredictable with scores (avg'd 5.99 for WPL 3 season with high of 6.48 and low of 5.09)...

...however, I am reliable. :)

I don't really care what team I end up with, I just like to participate and have fun.

Let me know if I can be an asset to your team. Thanks!

Barry

I would like to invite you are you interested?
post at: "Starting a WPL team" forum thread, as I stated there, and PM'd you.

Crud!

Shortly after posting this thread yesterday I was contacted by a team captain of a team I was certainly interested in joining. The opening was uncertain and has yet to be confirmed...24 hours later still unconfirmed.

Now I'm getting a bit antsy with the WPL 4 signup deadline approaching and the holiday weekend soon to be here.

Any existing teams looking for a consistent team member where I could contribute?

Let me know. Thanks! :D

Can I post myself as a free agent as well?

Please don't make me list my qualifications, because, lately, well, I SUCK.

:)

But I'd love to play.

Sure, come join the party. Just leave me a little elbow room eh? :D

Guess we could be a team of 2. Oh wait, need at least 4 don't we. He-he.

I like what Scott has done with WPL but this kicking around trying to find a team is a pain. Liked the sign-up for individuals last season better than this groveling about.

Good luck Nards.

Now, please excuse me for a moment...PICK ME, PICK ME. :P

Please pick him first. He's much better than me.

This feels a little like schoolyard kickball used to feel... Wait, that's not good..

Sorry to intrude on your thread, Barry.

Well, if you want your own team, I know that

Blue Moon,

bryantbus, and myself are all looking to join someone. That makes 5 for you if you include

nards656.

Are there team slots open??? Or are we wasting our time?

12/29/2006 02:39:20 PM · #10

Make up your own! There are plenty of us out there needing a team... we just need a captain... :(

This starts to look like the beginnings of a team if the OP wants to captain one.

And by the way, I like the name "Team Free Agent". Just to get that out there.

The only time I was on a team in the past, it was with Glad as the captain. :-) I'll renew my membership when he says he is going to be the captain. Is that pressure or what? LOL

Ok Trevor - you asked for it. Pony up the $25! ...and you better come prepared to kick butt. :D

Geez. I can't believe I'm doing this, but what the heck. Team Free Agents it is. Guess I better get busy on checking the signup details.

Team at this point is:

TCGuru

Blue Moon

bryantbus

toddhead

I have an idea for team member #7...I'll get back on that one.

Rock and roll! :) We've at least got the required 4. I guess the captain is supposed to take care of signing up the team after midnight on Jan 1?

I assume that is the same time the ball falls, and it must be first come first served, so don't kiss the wife too long before getting online.... :)

Thanks, Barry. This oughtta be a lotta fun.

Yayyyyy! I'm on a team! Let's have some fun and kick some BOOTY!! I may be new, but I'm enthusiastic and I promise to try my best!

Does anyone know where I can get a telephoto lens for my Kodak (preferably cheap but in really good condition)???

:D

We are like the ex-suckers (althow we may still suck - falling off the wagon). That makes like the x-men -mutant photograpers. LOL now thinking twice about saving a spot on the team for me?

No thinking twice here! Come on in, the water's fine...maybe a little murky and shark infested, but we'll survive. :D
