AKABalla do you plan to extend the league to the online website that you can make at 2ksports.com? If so I'd be willing to help.

Please be on the lookout for website admin approval... Thanks for your help...

BTW for everyone Konex, Zep & Truelize will be co admin's for game resets and trade approvals... If anyone else is interested please let me know.


Does everyone want to have the league flex? We will have to be strict as how to handle the flex option. Playing each week in order and your opponet needs to have the same amount of weeks played in order for you to play...

How does that sound? Thats how im running it for the preseason..

Oh and BTW if play ahead and not in order the game will be reset.. no exceptions!

Flex is a really bad idea cause players like DM and Matrix will have their entire seasons done in 4 days and then everything else will fall apart. I can understand opening 2 weeks at a time if possible, but flex is a disaster.

Flex is a disaster if you open all games.. Like i said.. Ex.

In order to play your week 2 game you and your opponet will have to be done with your week 1 game.. If any of us notice games being completed not following this format the games will be reset.. I'm sure people wont play games ahead of schedule if there games will be reset... But with that said we will still sim games by the deadline..
 
AkaBalla said:
Chris James you avail tonight @ 9:30pm est?

Yeah, I think so. I'll let you know if I can't. A little later than that would work better for me (10-10:30). But if that doesn't work for you then I should be able to play at 9:30.

I also think the flex schedule is a bad idea, and I'm on the fence regarding the modified flex sched...

Also, I'd be willing to be an admin. if you need anymore, but no problem if not.

Alright kool, I'll log on and check.

About flex schedule, I wouldn't do it. In my previous leagues I used flex schedule, and while it sounds nice on paper in practice it creates a lot of problems.

Admin's have been granted access for the Preseason... Smokey do your work!

BTW i may end up creating the regular season so we can start as soon as the preseason ends. (which could be in 14-17 days).. Get the preseason games in fellas..

I'm at work now, so when I get home I'll take a look at it.

EDIT: Apparently you can't login right now. it says DB Error Connect failed when I try.

Shamrock you are going to be using the Nuggets for the preseason.. Once we start the regular season u need to switch teams..

yep great pre-season game. it was the 2nd game ive played w/ the magic so now I got a bit of an idea on who can do what.

and im glad i got to play you, if anything despite losing, i feel better because your supposed to be top dog on 2K and once I get my lineup down Ima be straight. I was with you until the game started letting you make contested 3's(for the most part)..which leads me to:

IMO:

1. The 3 pt slider should be turned down. It's ridiculous the amount of 3s somebody can make. It's not just this league, it's in any online game really but since we can control the sliders in this league IMO I think it needs to be turned down a little.

2. Foul slider should be turned up. I kept purposely trying to foul jobber and they game wouldn't call anything so I kept reaching all day long.

3. Layup slider should slide up a bit.

GG though:D

I was feeling your game out for the most part in the 1st. Once I knew your style, I started shooting jumpers and defending harder. I stopped playing my game in the 3rd so you only got 1 1/2 quarters of what I can do.


Juan, I don't want cabbage patch. He's not even in the NBA anymore :\

Yeah, GG.

Free throw's are definitely too tough. This becomes apparent in the final minute of a close game.

I think close shots/layups could be turned up a little, but overall it was about perfect gameplay wise.

Been playing online all day and I started noticing something. If you're the away team good luck w/ layups and pretty much anything around the basket. I found that out today. I noticed it when I was the away team and I noticed it when I was home(I could make the majority of my layups but he could not)?? It happens on shots as well as free throws. I don't understand how 2K could mess up online like they have w/ regards to how their online sliders are set.
 
Anyone on my preseason schedule, I should be able to play basically any time tonight. Just let me know in here or on XBL if you want to play.

I'll be posting in here around then to make sure our game is still on.

Cool. It's only preseason. The only player that really caught for you was Head. He went off for a bit there.

I told everyone how offensive based this game is though, I had to take Bron out from stopping him from committing murder. The game just makes crap up for you when you are hot. Hitting a three and getting fouled??? Sure Bron does that ALL THE TIME. :lol

Rebounding works though. I'm happy with that. Free throw timing is horrible. Is there anyway to make that easier?


Matrix do you use the X button to shoot still?
