Can't believe this will be my FIFTH year of doing this. How time flies. Just like last year, I'm beating E3 to the punch and getting this thread up now.

Frequenty Asked Stuff:
- The game comes out on July 10th. The demo's out now!
- This is an Xbox 360 league.
- This is a 12 member league. That's EA's limit, not mine so yell at them. See the lists below for more details. Long story short, if you're interested just post!
-This dynasty is, and for the most part always has been, run career style. Meaning EVERYBODY starts off with teams having three stars or less of prestige and builds them up. There's been some talk of actually wanting to LOWER that this year, but we can discuss that here as well. I took Army from a one star school to a six star one in '12, so it can happen!
- For this league's official rules, see the rules from our NCAA '12 League OP (see above for link).
- At full capacity, it usually takes us a little over a month to complete a season. Strict deadlines ensure the pace doesn't down.
- Last year's league lasted TEN seasons, a record for any GAF sports league I'm sure of, and we're looking to match that this year.
- Last season we played on default All-American difficulty with six minute quarters. That seemed to present the best balance before most of the member teams got good, so we're tentatively sticking with that. It's definitely cyclical, so it can change depending on circumstances.
- We do indeed utilize custom conferences. That said, we make no changes to anything in Season One and anything after that is in the best interests of competition after I and the respective conference member(s) sign off on it. We moved a few teams around last season, but mainly as a result of the aforementioned or real life situations.
Other Stuff:
As was just mentioned above, this league will be around for a while so we like people that plan on being active for multiple seasons. If this league is nothing but a time killer for you until Madden comes out, DON'T sign up.
Selected Vets With First Pass At Open Spots:
Just like last year, if you're still in simply post to let me know. I've already seen several people in the NCAA '12 OD thread saying they'll be unavailable at various points, but again as you should know by now, that's what Autopilot is for. If it's going to be a REALLY long time and you won't be able to start with us in July, just let me know and I'll just add you to the eventual waiting list.
Newbies:
Every year since 2008, we've been lucky to gain some reliable new guys that go on to become vets and I hope that's the case this year as well. Like the vets, if you're interested in joining, just post! If we're only down to one or a few remaining spots, the newbie that's the most active in this thread will get the spot.
