Hi! It's been a while. Been a while since I max earned in any given week as well. I'm writing this with a bit of news from Gustav land which may not be quite what many here wanted to hear.
Long story short, the question of my recreate has gone from "when will I recreate" or "what will the details of my recreate be" to "will I even recreate in the first place", with the answer to that leaning towards no.
The EFL has done nothing in particular to push me that way. I've just found myself a little bit leagued-out as of late. Though I'm still very much around in the VHL, I haven't been around the PBE in about a month (my apologies to anyone who's been affected by that) due to a gradual but virtually complete drop-off in interest, and I'm just not sure I'm feeling it here either. I haven't checked a single sim all season, have no idea how I'm doing, and my only interaction with the site has been checking in for updates. That isn't something I'm interested in doing for another whole career, and if nothing changes between now and retirement, I see no reason why I wouldn't at least take a break.
Will I drop off entirely before my players are done? Very likely not. It's very easy for me to get the TPE I need to keep my guys going for a while, it's really not a particularly long while, and I've been around long enough that I've built up a good amount of team loyalty. Will something change over that while? Possibly, but I wouldn't count on it at the moment.
