This is the last week of the regular season for everybody, so after this I'll be simming Week 15 and going straight to the conference championships.

On the plus side, the Panthers will now have my undivided attention in Madden!

 

[Big Papa Husker]

I'll get my game in after work. Too bad we couldn't go for a few more seasons. I would have liked to have been able to play with my starting QB for more than 3 games.

 

[KanZolo]

glad i renewed year of Live for this....

 

[MWS Natural]

I seriously have half a mind to just call this the last season. Nobody seems to care anymore

DAT MADDEN CCM. What really made me give college up.

DAT MADDEN CCM. What really made me give college up.

Aside from Ram (who bolted as soon as Madden came out) I don't think that had much, if anything to do with it at all. Aside from me a few other guys the Madden and NCAA leagues have always had different sets of people.

I'd put the blame more on other games coming out.

 

[GCQuinton]

EEK's last up before conference championship week. Deadlines at 11!

Done.

 

[GCQuinton]

Three games left!

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Well, game crashed again. During the post game this time. I guess that patch didn't do shit. I'm obviously pretty annoyed so I'll try again tomorrow. Here's a screenshot.

 

[GCQuinton]

When is the SEC Championship getting played?

And it's looking like an Az-GCQ doubleheader week! Aside from the BCS Title Game, we've also got a fantasy football game!

 

[GCQuinton]

Az's Big 12 Championship replay and the SEC Championship is last up. Are you two guys planning to play that or have you bailed already?

 

[GCQuinton]

If the Owl or EEK don't post here by 11 ET with their intentions, I'm gonna assume both have already bailed and will sim their game.

 

[KanZolo]

Yeah, and you don't wait until the last minute to show up and post something. I'm not holding up what little time we have left on a hunch of you being around. That's on you.

In other news, DAMMIT! No respect!

 

[BigAT]

You know, I was going to make a joke about "Gee, how stupid would it be if I somehow got bumped into the National Championship?" but thought it so unlikely that I didn't even bother. I don't deserve this one.

Even weirder considering the fact that I've got wins over both you and Notre Dame. Ah well. Just not meant to be this year.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

I get the feeling that somehow AT is going to get revenge for his early season loss to me in epic fashion.

 

[Striker]

GCQ, we'll have to try Tuesday some time.

 

[BigAT]

Are you going to be around at all today? I feel like we should probably get this out of the way before I lose power for the next few days.

 

[GCQuinton]

GCQ, we'll have to try Tuesday some time.

Yeah, that's probably better for me too. Anytime after 6 ET should work.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Yeah, I should be home around 5:30-6pm.

I gave you respect on the last post of the previous page!

That was in reference to Rutgers jumping me in the polls for my national championship spot.

 

[Nightz]

On a happy note, Best Buy still accepted my copy of the game for trade-in. The guy didn't even bother looking at the disc lol. Got $32 for the game.

Some poor kid is going to get that copy for Christmas! Why do you hate kids and Christmas, Nightz?

[Azwethinkweiz]

Not sure if you still have power AT, but I'm running a little late. Should be home in 10.

 

[Big Papa Husker]

Rose Bowl Champs! My defense played amazing and after a 75 yard TD on their first play Oregon couldn't do shit the rest of the game. WOO!

 

[GCQuinton]

Striker, you free around 8 ET tonight?

 

[Striker]

Striker, you free around 8 ET tonight?

Probably. Just have to look for me on XBL or on AIM, and send a message.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Striker, you free around 8 ET tonight?

Aren't you glad you're not playing me? That doubleheader sweep would've been so demoralizing!





Just playin', commish!

Vernon Davis is dead to me! That game was the last straw.

 

[GCQuinton]

Striker you around? Not seeing you AIM.

 

[BigAT]

Going to be at least a few days without power for me Az.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Going to be at least a few days without power for me Az.

Playing the CPU!

Just kidding, let me know when you're ready, man.

 

[GCQuinton]

GG Striker.

If there's any consolation in this, we at least got revenge on one of the teams that cost us the title game spot.

 

[Striker]

The Madden league taking forever to get to the draft and the next season has prompted me to ask this question one more time because the gap from not playing the two has already started to feel weird to me (even though I played last night):

Does ANYBODY wanna continue on with this? With some realigning, five or six people can work to where I can still give us four user games a season. Although it would naturally repeat more often.

EDIT: Another crazy idea I just thought of is simming Year 5, re-inviting everyone and removing the star limit entirely for Year 6 as a kind of soft reboot. Would anyone be up for that?

I would be up for continuing since I finally got a great option QB. If we did start back up, I probably wouldn't be able to get games in from Nov 9-15, since I will be in NC visiting a friend. With that said, he has a 360, so I MAYBE could play a game, but I'm not 100% sure.

 

[BigAT]

Az, got power back about an hour ago. I should be able to play tomorrow.

I don't think I would return for another season, I'm kind of in the mindset of being done.

 

[GCQuinton]

I'm assuming EEK and KZ have already dropped, so once this game is played we're officially done.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Oh hey, didn't see this earlier. When are you available AT?

 

[BigAT]

Az, you around to play our game now by any chance? Message me on Steam if you are.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Hey man, we had a pretty big release at work over the weekend so I haven't been around. I should be available to go tomorrow afternoon if you have time.

Yeah, that should work.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Hey AT, didn't want you to think I forgot but I'm still at work. I'll let you know when I'm home. Sorry again!

 

[BigAT]

Just message me on Steam when you get in. Watching the Knicks game in the meantime.
