Hi. It's looking likely that UPL will start earlier this year to give our playerbase something to do in the absense of watching SPL games. The timing of this means that myself and Hack will not be able to manage this year, so there will be some open manager slots available.
There will be six teams, so therefore there will also be six managers. We will not have "official" assistant managers this year, although if you want to add someone in an unofficial role that's fine, and chances are they'd be allowed to bid in the auction. I'd greatly prefer that any assistant manager not be someone who would be a quality /active starter in UPL, so if you want an assistant manager, notify me. Alternatively, just can just give assistant manager to someone you draft for your team.
Mr.378 and someone else (I forget lol but I think Astounded) have already been guaranteed manager spots. I've talked to a couple of other people who will likely get spots if they apply, but nothing is set in stone. There will be a couple of wide open spots as well, but I expect many people to apply so yea, don't be offended if you are not chosen.
Application "form":
1. What tiers do you play well enough to playtest at a UPL level?
2. List your accomplishments in the Ubers tier (anything you can think of).
3. Why would you make a good manager? (you can write a tl;dr or a sentence, i don't really care)
4. List any inactivity you might have for the next several months.
