Anyone seen the owner of the Pats around? He didn't respond to my PM, haven't seen him on AIM.

If you are around, let's get our game in tonight.

Ay GG Vumpler!

There's a problem though. V and I just finished playing our week 1 game, and the game didn't bring up the stats for me. It just keeps doing a flyby of the stadium and no matter what I press, the menu system will not come up...so I can't record my stats. Only stat I know is that I won but other than that:lol .

Solution? At leaguedaddy I just put the score of the game in?

I will be ready to play my game tonight after 9EST. Tomorrow (Saturday) is out of the question. I am tailgating in the morning, then I get to watch the Deacons struggle against the Cornhuskers without their starting QB, and then I go home to some good ol' high definition college football and steaks, capped off by the epic battle between my beloved Hokies and the bayou bengals of LSU.

Deno, hey sorry our days are not matching up. Can you play Tuesday night? I am going out of town tomorrow and monday.

We lost the stats at the end of the Pats/Steelers game.

tc got kicked out and my screen froze at the end.

The Steelers won the game 28-19, but that's all the stats I have.

What should we do about that, Air?

That sucks but there's really nothing you can do about that. Last year, for some reason sometimes the player stats wouldn't show up, only the team stats. If you can just try and remember the main stats like TDs, INTs, fumbles, FGs, sacks, etc.
 

Maverick

Member
Okay, I'll do my best. I know Davenport and Parker had TDs. And Clark returned an INT for a TD...Do you remember the other TDs tc?

Ben had one INT, and the Patriots fumbled twice. That's about the extent of what I remember from the game. I was somewhat hung over. : )

Week 1 games that still need to be played!

Cincinnati (Drey1082) at Buffalo (LJ11)
* Drey, where are you?

New York (Denogginizer NC) at Tennessee (bonsevan)
* Looks like this game is scheduled to be played on Tuesday.

San Francisco (Birdman02) at New Orleans (corey f baby)
* Birdman02 gets back in town tonight, so this should get played within a day or two. corey f baby, where are you?

Philadelphia (Andokuky) at Minnesota (SweetTea023)
* SweetTea023, Ando has posted in this thread, when you can play him? Ando is almost always available.

I realize we're all busy, but for the league to be fun, we need to be active. It's hard to do weekly awards if not all of the games have been played on time. There are four methods to get a hold of each other: this thread, GAF PMs, XBL PMs, and the League Daddy forum. Please check the first post and let me know if any of your contact information is missing. The Veteran league started the same day, has 32 teams, and is already on Week 4! Let's go, guys!

FOR THE REST OF US, WEEK 2 IS NOW OPEN!

Week 2 games due by Thursday, September 13th.

I'm back, ladies! :D I sent Variance a PM, so hopefully we can get our week 1 game in tonight or tomorrow.

Maverick, when do you want to run our week 2 game? I should be around tonight (depending on the how cowgirls gameis going)...or anytime after 8:30 pm central this week except for tomorrow because I'll be watching my 49ers!!!

Hey Bird, did your connection freeze or something? It said I got disconnected from my opponent and sent me to the lobby.

Everything looks decent on my end. Try again?

Everything looks good on my end too. I'm not sure what the problem is, but we keep getting dropped 2-3 plays into the game. The same thing was happening with me and AirBrian last week, but it's not booting me from live...just from the game. Anyone else having this problem?

GG, Variance. I can not believe that Frank Gore fumble...I was all over the protect ball button, but he put it on the ground anyways! :( Alex Smith's 4 interceptions (only 2 of which I feel were my fault) did not help much either.

Maverick, you wann try our week 2 game around 8:15 pm CST tomorrow?
 

variance

Member
yeah, I couldn't believe I shanked that punt towards the end. I'm not sure if I just suck at kicking or if the game froze up on me but I thought I lost it there.

that Frank Gore fumble definitely killed you at the end. you played very well, I think you probably should've won. without Bush I would've had no chance.

also, that was a sick, sick, sick 95-yard interception return in the second quarter. it completely demoralized me until Bush broke one for 73-yards.

DMX, I'm ready to play you whenever. add me on live (corey f baby).

SweetTea forfeited our game down 7-0 because of lag. GG ST, don't know what was up with the lag. Laggiest game of Madden I think I have ever seen on any console and first laggy game of 08 I have had since the first couple days of release when everyone was having laggy games.

Sorry everyone for me not being around. Things this month got a lot busier than expected.

Bills: If you're around at 6:30 central I can play our week one game. After that, thursday I should be around all night. I'm sorry i've been missing you. I promise to be better about getting my games in. Let me know.

Hey Lambtron, when do you want to get our Bear-Packers rumble on?
