Matrix or whoever,

You can have my spot in this league. In fact, I am resigning from this and Madden. I am not competitive in these games and frankly, someone who has the time and energy to play these games deserves this much more. I truly appreciate the opportunity but it is time for me to accept the fact that I quite simply do not have the skills to offer what so many in this league deserve - a challenge.

Thanks for the opportunity. This will be my final appearance in any league on GAF.

 

[Matrix]

Sorry to hear that Denogg.

Not sure if I want in, I'll have to think it over.

Two leagues is a lot, plus madden. Not sure I can handle that.

I understand. I feel terrible about stepping in and I apologize. You or someone else should get this spot though. At the very least, this league can be restarted because the cheats are active

Nah. He did me a favor. I need to go find a senior circuit.

 

[CB3]

If i make DCX rage quit this season, i was just doing you a favor buddy!

It could allow me to confer with FMT about deleveling Alabama to a realistic level.

But I'd miss Random 5 Star DT.

He was auditioning to join you in the nWo.


Sorry to see you leave Denogg =(

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

dang, sorry to see you go denogg, but if you aren't enjoying yourself you aren't enjoying yourself. thanks for your years of service

on another note, i could've sworn i have "shortcuts" turned off. are they showing as enabled for you guys? isn't that the cheats?

 

[DCX]

I appreciate it. I am going to take a break from football and hold off on any decisions about Madden until close to league start. I want to be absolutely certain I am comfortable with what I can achieve, and right now I need a lot of work.

And yes, the special perks are on. The 2 recruiting report things I have showed up.

 

[CB3]

No. They are disabled

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

somnia i'll be around tonight to do this.

also luke said that the sliders played very well. guys keep me posted on what you think of the sliders (win or lose!)

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

No. They are disabled

They were enabled last time I checked. I only noticed because in the other league it was set to disabled.

 

[Ramirez]

Lone you around?

 

[Lonestar]

Lone you around?

Yeah, let me log on

 

[Matrix]

Ram is so going to rage quit!

 

[Somnia]

God why can't Madden's website be as good as NCAA's...I love the stories and pictures, etc.

 

[Lonestar]

Ingram had reasonable numbers. It's Richardson's fault for having 20 YPC.

 

[CB3]

@ LJ
@ Easy Button Alabama back to back to start the season?

I see you FMT. I see you...

 

[Ramirez]

Ugh, I should have been in that game, if not won it. Two crucial 3rd downs early on deflated me, had both stopped in the backfield only to see a stupid broken tackle animation that no other defender can cancel out. Bama's QB stat line was 3/7 for 38 yards, awesome, the RB's numbers were inflated from a couple of breakaways, one which should have been stopped easily.

The input lag was awful as well, felt like I was steering a boat while running or trying to tackle. :lol Oh well, didn't expect to win it. These game wrap ups in game are awesome, it's shameful that the Madden team is leaving theirs unchanged.

edit: forgot my awesome run for about 20+ with one person to beat...fumble...FUUUUUUUU, oh and an option pitch got intercepted, that was great too.

 

[Lonestar]

Did I really need to throw the ball any, once up 28-0?

You seemed to have trouble defending the Pistol. I shall continue to see if others have trouble with The Pistol.

BTW...where is DM?

BTW, any video saved in the game, is uploaded too. Doesn't seem to be attributable to your "Media Lounge" area, which has always had that 5 video limit.

No, I'm pretty sure you could have sit your controller down, let the cpu run the plays and won actually.

Anyone want to play?

That's kinda what I did... The runs early were me, though the break tackle TD was that standard Uber Back break tackle.

I'll play. Who's your next opponent?

 

[CB3]

I knocked Alabama in alot of my recruiting. if i cant beat your superteam on the field ill do it in the meetings damnit

 

[DMczaf]

BTW...where is DM?

I'll have the game around Tuesday

Sadly, the backups on the team will last me 4 seasons, before any possible lack of recruiting can effect the team.

Ah, I haven't checked, I might use Kentucky.

 

[Lonestar]

Ah, I haven't checked, I might use Kentucky.

Ah, ok, I'll use...is Louisville Kentucky's rival?

 

[Somnia]

ugh...GG FMT. I was happy with my d play overall I'd say, but I really wish I would have gotten more than 1 game in before my first dynasty game to learn the offense. I felt like all of my passes were way off. I need to learn this game!

Yeah, there's definitely some lag when playing online, pretty big difference from offline.

Nice Bob/Frankman act.

 

[DMczaf]

Nice Bob/Frankman act.

The dude in the alley said he would have the game by Tuesday, he swore.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

any comments on the sliders?

to be honest my game with somnia didn't seem that much different.... both D's were all OVER the play destroying things and picking off passes.

 

[LJ11]

Any of you try recruiting via the web?

I tried one Call, and the convo didn't load properly. Now I can't approach him until the next week.

I definitely noticed that Man Coverage was toned down, everything else felt the same for the most part.

:lol

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

i'm getting that maybe we should tone down the pass rush. can't say i disagree, both myself and somnia were ferocious on the line basically hitting the qb on every drop back

What's the difference between decreasing pass rush vs increasing pass block?

 

[Lonestar]

Unknown.

Fun game playing with a team I hate. Back up Caudle with the "where did he come from" game.

BTW, Auburn's actual offense is the hurry up. AUTHENTIC!

Yup, that was fun, just wish there hadn't of been so many fumbles.

Might I add, the input lag in the game I just played with Lone was probably the best I've had online, but the franchise game was awful on my end. There's always a noticeable difference between offline/online for me, but it was very noticeable in the Bama game. I dunno.

ALSO authentic to the Auburn Experience Usually against Auburn, but oh well.

Cam Newton got knocked out of the game early :lol Probably to go check out available laptops at Kentucky.


Perhaps it was because you hosted this time. I saw no real lag difference in either game.

it's part of the Easy Button feature for bama this year. if you play in bama your guys go haywire, if you get past that you have to deal with bamas great offense, if you get past that you have to deal with their incredible defense, and if you get past all that keep in mind only you are lagging. lonestars game was actually running SMOOTHER than single player because he was using bama. thank god you can't export NCAA teams to madden, because they would destroy every nfl team as well. thank you tiburon for not including that requested feature

 

[Ramirez]

I think we only have one game left, unless we're waiting for DM.

Looks like I have an open week next though.

 

[LukeSmith]

Which rosters did we end up using? The ratings are slightly different for Fairdale Kings than they are in our dynasty

I haven't heard from Smokey yet, but I don't think I'll be able to play tonight anyway.

We're using what was called "Community Rosters" on Operation Sports. They mentioned that they removed/moved players that have transferred/quit/added. Not sure how close to 100% accurate they got. I know they removed Star Jackson QB from Alabama, because he transferred. Same with a few other players. But rating changes, I don't think they adjusted.

Fairdale King's roster, is literally the out of the box EA Roster, just with names.

Can I change it now or is it too late? I used FK's because Matrix said it was good in the other thread.

Change what?

FK's good for scrimmages, because they're the default rosters anyway. If you're talking about a dynasty you've started, don't think you can change it.

You made it sound like the OS one's removed players, but thinking about it more, I guess FMT's rosters are the ones everyone is using, or no? /confused

The one FMT used to start the dynasty is the one everyone uses. For any other dynasty that YOU start, you can use any roster you want.
