Maybe because most of us would rather play the game rather show off our e-penis by upping our post count.

Edit: Beaten by Nightz. :lol

I know im not in your guys league or anything, but I got this yesterday. Played a couple games against a friend. Won both. (I used UGA both times. Whooped Florida State pretty badly. He gave me more fight using Pitt.)

Pretty fun so far. I definitely noticed the random inaccurate throws and such though.

The EA website has this new feature, where you can put together the different clips you upload, into one, longer video (even with putting in audio clips with it). So, could be interesting to use.

Here's my test version. Just think of it as Watching me beat Nightz in the playoffs, then having a flashback to a moment from last years college game.

We've never used that trick.

I have most of "Football game" GAF on friends list. Figure that's what most of us are doing.

Damn....I guess I'm out of the loop on that. I'm almost set on buying the X360 version this year. I got the PS3 version the last couple years to play against my bro, but he rarely plays.

Other than Online Dynasty, how active are you you guys for random games? I won't have time for a dynasty, but I'll be playing online a good amount.

But seriously, two years ago in '09 when everybody started with their powerhouse teams in our league the game just got boring way too quick since everyone's teams were stacked (or close to it) out the gate. Add that to the fact that we only averaged 4-5 human games a season anyway and you're eventually going through the motions since you're always blowing the CPU out.

The way I saw it last year, starting off with the three star teams at least gave everyone a shot to start on equal footing and you actually had to BUILD your program, which is the whole point of dynasty mode anyways. But hey, if people want to start off with a 99 OVR team and do that, more power to 'em.

Why are you bringing this over here?

Why do you think I'm pushing to put everyone in the same conference? To avoid "too many" CPU games.

I didn't. Ramirez brought it up on the last page, so I explained why I set ours up like I did.

But did anyone else's copy from Dell come in this very odd shipping sleeve?

Yes, the same way. Thankfully it wasn't destroyed.

I definitely think that GCQ has a point, the gap is considerable between the teams. I don't know if the gap is significant enough to offset thumb skill, however (LJ and Rors certainly prove that thumb skill trumps team ratings in Madden, whether it does or not in NCAA is TBD)

The NCAA Dynasty we played in '09 with GCQ lasted four seasons or so. The size of the thread doesn't really mean nothing was going on. All you need to do is set up scheduling, write a GG summary if you want, and go on. GCQ even provided his weekly standings, notes, and player of the weeks. Not sure why people knock this kind of stuff.
 
:lol

i don't know what post #'s have to do with quality of the league.

and lest we not forget our last ncaa 09 online dynasty ALSO lasted 4 seasons on ps3.... although it eventually died after psn gave me issues logging in and wouldn't let me download the updated dynasty to advance the league. what a surprise PSN!

5/6 star teams aren't fun. I really like 2 star team idea. Maybe next year.

I dunno, i kinda like not having 3 pages of inside jokes and shit talking

2 quick disconnects with Luke as well.

DAMN these PS3 servers!

Anyone else wanna see if we can get a few more disconnects?

FMT and I just got disconnected in a 17-17 game going to the 4th. Grrr.

that lb pick was ridiculous! my TE had him beat by like 3 yards and i release the ball and he manages to turn around, run with him for a step and pick it :lol

i guess its my own fault, i had time to let the route develop for a second longer and get the sure completion :(

tech has fast LB's!

Think there are some hellacious server problems at the moment. Another 2 disconnects with Storybook. And I see a post on Operation Sports about the same thing.

I could only imagine the amount of backlash we would get in the Madden league if we did all that!

Also, GCQ was pretty quiet in the Madden thread, but he got every game done on time and he outlasted a lot of teams even though he had a good record. Shows you don't have to be super active in the thread to keep up!

[edit] Just checked and GCQ had just 9 more posts than Zep! :lol :lol :lol :lol
