We don't need a specific number of anything, just pick which category you think best suits you

Honestly, I've stopped reading some logs. Everyone wants to get all "cutesy" with these intricate story lines and flashbacks. What happened to the good ol fashioned box score and a summary?

If you'd like, you could tell us which ones you do follow, but that's completely optional

All

I'll look over most, but only really deeply follow a couple.

I follow most of them, some of the new logs like the Dogs and the Bears could be really good though, and the Eagles, they are my favorite!

I follow some of them

None, I don't click into any of the other subforums this time of year and don't have the time or interest to bother following any of them. Especially since I lost interest in baseball.

I follow three.


I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that's a bit boring to read, and I know I'm not alone in thinking that's boring to write.

And with my log (the Gunmen), it was more storyline-based than anything else right from the beginning.

Heck yeah! The story is half the fun!

Yeah, I'd like to do story lines for my log.

I need to work on some for the Stingers.

Different strokes for different folks I guess. I find story lines take much longer to write, and thus I have less motivation

Also, I shall use this opportunity to give my honest opinion on each log

Slayers+Aliens: Easily my favorite logs, PPJ does a great job with the writing. The Slayers is very slow-paced, but professional and very creative. The Aliens are also well done with the thoughts after each game. Not to mention they are both very detailed and a pleasure to read. Keep up the good work.

Knights: It's pretty good writing with excellent game updates, but the flashbacks have me confused. What is the point of Jack being framed, other than you get to make a few Ace Attorney references?

Dogs: The game updates are really good, but I find the story line to be weak. I don't know if it's the writing itself or the plot, but I feel as though something should be changed.

Stingers: Just like the Dogs, the game updates are great. But the story lines don't do it for me. A couple guys arguing over who has more power doesn't do it for me.

Eagles: It's good so far, but, there's too many damn italics!

Country: The updates are so detailed, colorful, and just all around well done. The log is underrated solely because ERISA doesn't really talk with us, and because of that, some people don't bother reading it.

Gunmen: I'm not quite sure it can be classified as a season log yet. Quite frankly, it's just a story on the life of a GM so far. Too many flashbacks, so little games. Don't get me wrong, it's very good writing, but I would prefer that writing be used more for the games

Mendenhals: I'm not too big a fan of the "broadcasts", but I know everyone else is. Nonetheless, I feel like for all the work and effort that was put into updating the rosters, it would be a shame if this didn't go on.

Stranglers: From what I've read, I don't find the story itself to be fantastic, but it is hysterical! I find myself cracking up at least once an update.

I mean to work on my story line, it's just a little rough for inspiration right now.

I was thinking about doing an update about Hank's 715th homer, but the way I wrote it, it would have been, well, sucky.

Do you guys like my game summaries and box score setup?

As long as it's good, I'm fine with your second point.

I click on every new post on every log thinking "I should read this," but I rarely ever do. The only ones I really "follow" are the Stranglers and the Knights. Everything else I only read through if I'm in a good mood.

What about MrKonami's log? It's pretty good, aside from the fact he hasn't played a game yet.
