Don't worry Vumpler I'm sure playing against me will make you feel good about the game. I wish I could have played a "light-weight" in the first round.

I'm back Monday night, probably around 9 mountain time. I'll check GAF and AIM right away too see if you are around. If you can't play Monday night I can either play during the day on Tuesday or after 10:30 mountain time Tuesday night.

I'm home all week next week guys, so don't worry about me not being around.

Sounds like a great time monday or tuesday :)

OK OK OK. I tried All Madden yesterday and WOW has EA dropped the ball. All Pro reminds me of what rookie used to be and All madden reminds me of what all pro / all madden is supposed to be. I'm glad you guys told me to check out all madden because I was taking the game back lol. We already tried taking my friends back that night to walmart but there was just one crazy B@#$& that said we had to exchange for the same game only. Well from there we thought we were a step up on her and said fine but then another lady walked by and said "oh don't forget to open that package before you give it to them." !@$!@ DOH.

But anyway the games awesome now. The routes that weren't being covered in NCAA are covered, the excessive animations for extra yards while running are removed and it's like a whole new game. Special teams is still a little outrageous. We finally figured out how to stop each other from running it back EVERY TIME lol.

MADDEN FOR TEH WINNN!!!

Quick question before league starts... are we playing Line spreading and slot Recievers able to do that outside slant?

evertying cool for these games to be played? anyone having trouble getting ahold of your opponent if your name is above? not to be a nag about it (sorry i haven't looked at every post in detail) but i want it to go over smoothly. only person i am worried about to a higher degree is Shogun as his acct shows him not being on since the 24th, and i haven't seen him on AIM. if he doesn't post in this thread or respond to my pm he's going to be replaced. everyone has a life but it doesn't hurt to check GAF once in a while when you've committed to play in a league ;)

Just checking back in, as I just got in the door from my PAX trip. I'd be up for playing tonight, anytime after 7 PM EST ramirez. Sorry about not posting about PAX in here, I had posted my plans elsewhere.

It is looking more and moe like my league is dead before it even starts. If you need someone to fill a space, just send me a PM.

I will be back from Miami tonight, but I don't think I will be able to play until tomorrow. I will be dead tired from all the shenanigans of the weekend.

When are you available tomorrow Juice? I should be getting home at 6:30 and will likely be in bed at 12! (EST)

FMT,

Wrong score for my game Colts/Bengals. I won that game 49-35, you have the score as 45-38. I wish I had a field goal factored in my score, 4th and inches and I went for it instead of kicking the easy 25 yarder and I also missed a 53 yarder short. My kicker went 0 for 1 on the day.

Tomorrow as in play on Tuesday night?

My schedule is constantly a moving target, so the later the better (I never go to bed when I need to, anyway). Probably 10:30-11:00 or something like that.
 
ramirez, vumpler, truelize: you guys have your games scheduled? i haven't seen ramirez post in the thread in a few days.

ramirez get off WoW and give madden some attention! if you don't want to play in the league let me know. seems like you are generally uniterested in the game

should we just not even worry about doing a league on League Daddy for the first season? and can we not require any stats?

the disconnect rate is so great that I doubt I would want to complete the season if I had to take partial stats every time the game disconnected.

can someone, anyone, offer any insight as to why the online sucks so much? should EA just stop putting it in Madden?

intangibles, motherfucker
ive only had one drop, that was during a live opponent game, but we could still talk to each other over the mic. So ill count that as a dud.

The rest have been damn near perfect

ok heres the thing, outside of the connection problems I had about a week ago most of the games have been trouble free. but what happens if they start to get more frequent?

today I tried to play DJ twice and it dropped us both times. it might have had something to do with EA servers because the next game I tried to create I got a message saying EAs servers were down.

played a game just now against vumpler and it was worry free. if I knew every game was going to be like that I would have no more complaints and would be ready for league play starting now.

Im just hoping I dont have to deal with disconnects every other game because EAs servers are shit or because one particular player cant get connected to me.

if my opponents dont mind Id like to run a game before playing our real game to see if theres gonna be any apparent issues with our connection to each other because id rather waste some time doing that rather than wasting time taking stats every time it disconnects.

i had the issue of being DC'ed then it saying "madden servers down". it has something to do with your xbl clock setting (there are some posts about it in the official thread).

also make sure your router settings/software is correct and up to date

Count me out for the league,my 360 is either broken or it just hates EA games,I can't boot up a game of NCAA or Madden without it freezing on me before the game ends...had to start 3 times with Shogun cuz my shit kept freezing :|

The lag was no where to be found though! :lol

I think the inconsistency with standard "should complete everytime" plays is a joke. I think its outrageous the ~30% CATCH rate on HB screens. I've tried it all, the lob, the seed, the touch, and the lead and it always hits the douche straight in the face and falls on the ground. There are a lot of dumb things about this game but you know what, it truely is about 3x better than any of the other maddens I've ever played. Their getting closer but they always seem to screw something up *sigh*

The end score on the longest play for the 4th quarter was 21 Steelers - 24 Saints. FMT, I'll play off of another person, or advance depending on what you want.
