We getting over 30 packs to open. Can't wait!
Yeah. WTF? When will people learn? Ride the horse that got you there?
Secret's move had to be a package deal. Who the hell would want rtz over w33? They probably really wanted Universe. That said, I love Universe, but he's been in a little bit of a slump of late.
As for EG, the Aui announcement video where he bitch slaps himself for ppd makes me cringe. Weird that they let him take the 1 position. Figured they'd put fear back in there. Aui is such an amazing support. It'll be interesting to watch EG in the upcoming weeks. Universe was such a big part of their success and Bulba is a huge step down from him. They should have just gotten Misery.
Speaking of offlaners, is iceiceice playing support now? And w33 is now playing carry? And Misery back to support? Will black^ get sued by Marvel? So many questions... I don't agree with some of the moves, but things will sure be interesting.
Oh, and if volvo is really doing the tournament in "the beginning of August," I will probably go. I hope that's not the prelims... I need the tourney to end before the last week of August. T_T
They beat Secret! Na'vi is back!
[edit]Seriously, though. Some of the worst decision making I've seen in the GF.

Man, that show was so good in the early seasons. What a dumpster it turned into.
There's usually less BS in a baseball game though. Sometimes animations can be wonky and the occasion "what the fuck just happened?" but far fewer
If you mess up it's all on the player usually
Last year the latency was fine. I can't make any promises about this year!
It's not totally perfect like any sports games, it gets us all from time to time, but it's nothing I'd really worry about.
We'll find out tonight!
Welcome to the party!!!!!
Can't wait to hear you, Zep, and Crimson groaning as I open up 5 Mike Trouts
I remember last year on the first night, one of us got a Mike Trout and said it so casually "Whoa, I got a Trout" and the rest of us were like WHAT THE FUCK?
By the way do you want to be in the smaller Madden-GAF only league or do you want to do the one with the guys from last year? Or both?

The latency isn't the worst issue. The problem is sometimes you and your opponent will see different things happen. You will see a home run but your opponent sees a pop fly out. They improved that last year but it still happened

At this point I'm not sure what else can go wrong for the BigBoss. 2016 has been an awful year so far.
I actually look forward to playing MLB The Show, unlike MUT where it's just working the AH. Really enjoy working the AH but it's been so boring. I got on last night and made 100k in about an hour just flipping the same shit. Community is so fucking dumb, so easy to take advantage of, but it's a time sink. Want to sell my coins for real cash, afraid of getting scammed, though it really wouldn't matter.
Edit: Does the Show have Tax on sales? MUT has a 10% sales tax on anything you sell, so you have to take that into account.

Probably only have time for one; if you give me the Jays in the one with the guys from last year I'll probably play in that one if its bigger.
How big is the MaddenGAF league going to be? Would prefer to play with the dudes in here above all else but if its like an 8 team league then ehhhh

which one of you made a Voodoo doll?
I bet it was FMT, he always was salty after that shellacking I gave him this season!

Forgot who else was getting it but I imagine there's more. And we can always have Zep and Makaveli in that fold, but we'll see. It is truly a shame that league legend Drizz doesn't want to participate.
In the other league I'd rather give you the Jays but I guess the fair way is to play Jonsson for it? He did have them last year though so maybe he'll budge
We'll be testing the shit out of the game tonight in literally every single way, keeping in mind that sometimes the first week can be weird. Hopefully we can give positive reviews
We were talking the other day about how we're going to see if leagues have some stupid bug in it, but it'll take time and different scenarios to find out. Sometimes I feel like all the devs might be doing is just simming leagues to see if it gets to the end and that's that
LJ, I think there was a tax, but I think 5%

Yeah I can play him for them, although he pussied out last year and just said he should have them due to 'seniority'
I'm over-embellishing a bit lol, he just said "I dont think I should have to play you for them since I had them last year"
and I didn't fight him on it.
I'd rather give them straight up but I think playing it is probably fairest. I'd like to have him but if it's Jays or bust for him, then he won't be in a league.
Like that one time Livewire lost the Redskins and then bowed out of the league forever.

Cool I've got your favorite team the Mets all saved up for you

Yeah, I'm in. I'd probably also be down for both leagues assuming I get the Rangers in at least one of them. How does the scheduling work? How many games/advances per week should I expect?
Also, I hope things turn around for you soon, Boss. Sorry you're having to deal with any of this....especially all at once.
If it's just a group of us with that smaller league like you were talking about, I think I can handle that. If I have to find games with people I don't know, I probably won't deal with it.
The Madden league will probably be 8-10 people, and if we do this, I think we'll probably do a round robin format. I think that will still be fun and it'll get things going and we can do more of these as long as people are still playing.
I'll probably keep it to purely Madden people but we might have 1-2 others if we need to even it out, but those others will be people you're familiar with (Like Zep)
Or maybe you aren't familiar, but I think we've played R6 together. He used to be a regular around these parts!
This is who I got locked in:
Me
Crimson
Rinse
LJ
Bird
Rob
Eznark
Brent?
DCX?
Nightz?
FMT?
GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEG
If we got 8 people it'd be a 14 game season, 10 is 18, 12 is 22. That's a good number and our playoff rounds can be 2 since we don't have as many folks. Or we could just let top 8 in regardless

i've been begging for over 5 years.
Yea with how god awful the Reds are going to be this year a fantasy draft does look very appealing. It is really fun to have 8-10 all star teams and imo can make the games more exciting
is it up for preload yet? i know i said i was going to wait a while to see about online but I just cashed in a $50 psn card with reward points from my CC so i guess i'm going digital

Phee, if you have room, I'd be in as well. Yanks would be my first choice but if someone else wants em, totally cool with another squad.
hell yes!!!
DCX I know is a Yanks fan but if we do a fantasy draft maybe teams won't matter as much to people. I'll just pick a team that I think has a cool ballpark. Have an opinion on that?

He can have the Yanks, no biggie. I can go for another open squad.
I would go for no fantasy myself, but if the majority want that, then Im good with it.

I think I remember that. It would be so cool to have an 'NBA Jam' type baseball game
