Dynasty Style

As my last three online dynasties have been (fourth total), this will be a "career" style online dynasty. I'm not locking down the exact setup (custom conferences, etc.) just yet, but all members will AT LEAST be starting off with a 3 star team as head coaches and we can hash out the rest in this thread. If enough people want to drop the star requirement some more, we can definitely do that too. This was also a large reason we lasted NINE full seasons, which to my knowledge is a record among any of the GAF sports leagues. And out of those nine seasons, five were all-human national championship games, so I'd like to think we're doing something right!

More to come soon!

Listen to me very carefully my friends, trolling the other league's thread will not bring you peace.

Count me in. No clue as to what team I'm picking yet. Are we having at least two people in conferences? It would be ideal, especially if we can get them all in the BCS conferences.

If so I'll join AT in the Big East. :p

We'll figure out our conference setup when everyone chimes in. As far as the BCS stuff goes, that's entirely up to us now so it's not a biggie.

Didn't even see this thread. I will return to defend my National Championship(s)! I will probably start with 1 or 2* team depending on how the rosters look and the game plays.

I'm in! I wouldn't have a problem if we lowered it to 2*. What does everyone else think? I think it would make it more interesting.

I have no objections. And there is plenty of quality candidates if so, and we can shift teams around. A couple conferences set with two people each would really give the final bowl games and whatnot a real lightening experience. Plus it could shift more competitiveness to recruiting and/or awards.

The way we've always done things, everybody eventually plays everybody anyway so it really doesn't matter what conferences they're in. And, like I said before, with the bowls being completely customizable the circumstances can always be tweaked. Personally, I like having everyone spread out because it at least gives the teams some time to grow while we're still in that lower star status. Throwing too many people into custom conferences together will just cancel others out, causing their teams not to progress, them now getting fired, and potentially wanting to quit.

That said, once enough of us are at a 4/5/6 star status, I'd be cool moving some of our teams around into a couple of custom conferences in say, seasons 4 or 5, to change up the dynamic a bit. But like I said, this is all very much up in the air until the games comes out and I hear from everyone.

We only use 3* or below teams to start in the Official GAF NCAA League. It gives you the satisfaction of building a powerhouse instead of already starting with one.

Yeah BP and I spoke about this on AIM. I think it works out better people being spread out especially since you can control how what conferences meet in the bowl games now. If everyone is in the same conference the dominant teams will win each year whereas being spread out it gives any and everyone a shot at finishing #1. Definitely a smarter and more competitive way of setting up the league.

The team prestige requirement is something I can set before we start now, so making sure everyone starts there won't be a problem.

That said, E3 kicks off in a few hours! If this thread goes away for that, see you guys on the other side!

If you need a spot filled, I'm interested, FMT has cast me to the curb to rot. :p

I went ahead and gave you the tenth spot since you're a vet from the Madden leagues. Welcome to the league! And yeah, I definitely prefer the way we run things. Everybody's starting off with the same level of teams, so everyone has the exact same chance to get as better or worse as anybody else.

NCAA 12 is only behind closed doors. Make your own judgements on why this year they elected not to have it on the floor.
Click to expand...
Guess they just aren't putting out for people to play. Probably because it wipes the floor with Madden.

Yay!

I'm definitely in favor of sticking with three-star teams. I'm bad enough at recruiting that I'd hate to be stuck playing with a team of two-star scrubs any longer than I have to.

First choice for teams (pending rating from EA) would be BYU. But I guess we'll see just how badly their prestige has taken a hit from last season and becoming independent.
