is anyone else having massive "disconection lost" problems? never had these issues last year and all my other 360 games work fine online. Some of the Operation Sports guys are having issues too, so I can't imagine this is limited to a small amount of people. 60% of my games are ending is disconects :( and the shity thing is that the connection is still there because I can hear the other person and talk to him but the game either freezes or disconects with both of us at the disconect screen. WTF EA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nope

I did yesterday (twice), but other than that I've had no disconnection issues since changing my camera to Action.
 
Giants lost 20 - 7 to the 'Skins

And the game froze for both sableholic and I at the end-replay screen so we werent able to grab some of the stats
 
My game vs Big froze right after the game so we weren't able to get really good stats. sucks cause I had a pretty good game all around. So if our stats look odd that would be why. too bad the email stats after the end of game setting doesn't work otherwise I might have them.

Also can we get the layout for the leaguedaddy page changed so stats are shown on the frontpage?

Then tomorrow i'm at the mccain rally all day. Not looking good, so can you extend AT and I's game until wednesday?

You and I can still get our game on time easy.

That sucks your game dropped before you got the stats. I'll mess with the LD page later today when I get home. I've been trying to find a format that doesn't clutter up the front page.

And vump, you have until Thursday to get week 1 in. There's extra time this week because of the holiday weekend. :)

True I never really thought about whether it would clutter the frontpage. Hopefully you find a happy medium.

Anyone feel like the D is really tight on the deep pass now? I used to be able to throw bombs quite a bit the last two years, but it seems EA has really tightend the D on long passes. Even if my reciver has the step on the DB its not 100% certan the reciver will catch the ball, most of the time its getting tipped/intercepted or dropped.

Ok, I'm home team, so I'll invite you when ur ready.

Also, AirBrian, you might want to update the OP to show that injuries are on...at least that's what the poll says.

The 49ers pulled out a victory in a tough defensive battle with the Cardinals. We still haven't decided who #1 QB is, but that hasn't affected the running game at all. Frank the Tank finished the game with 118 yards, and Joe Nedney took care of the scoring. But, as the highlights show, the defense was the key in this game!!

Michael Lewis set the physical tone early on!!

Mark Roman made this pick on 3rd and 20 to set up the go-ahead FG!!

And Nate Clements sealed it!!

Good game, Nightz!

Thanks! I changed the LD rules page but completely forgot the OP. It's updated.

I am just looking at LD and 7 games have yet to be played. Just so everyone knows, the rest of the weeks won't be nearly this long. I believe AB said 4 days. C'mon guys, let's get these games done!!!

Most weeks are fine. BigAT has weird availability. Some days I see him on at 8 am and then not on when i get back from class. I have board reviews this week (end tuesday) and then a huge presentation for Paul Mitchell on Wednesday so I have a few things I need to run through. BigAT and I will hopefully meet up before Thursday:lol

BigAT, tomorrow won't work for me now. Wednesday and Thursday are freeeee as a bird though.

Yep. And just a reminder that Week 1 games are due on Thursday. Week 2 will open up on Thursday as well.

Week 2 will probably end Saturday or Sunday. We're shooting for 3-5 days between weeks because we only have LD for 3 months (I think), and we have to get through 17 weeks plus playoffs.

I might have a problem with week 2 if pheeniks isn't available on Thursday. My family is flying up to San Jose this Friday to attend a wedding on Saturday and we won't be back until late Sunday night. So...

pheeniks: Would you be available to play our game this Thursday? Any time after 5pm PST (8 EST) is good for me.

AB: If we can't get the game in on Thursday, would we be able to get an extension?

Yeah, as long as you have a valid reason for not being able to make a game, it's not a problem. Just make your arrangements with your opponent, and let us know.

And Week 2 will end late Sunday night for those planning ahead. :)

If you guys want to get week 2 in on tuesday or wednesday, I'm sure we could just unlock the week for you to input the stats, then lock it back up. If that's ok with AB.
 
I'm going to be out of town from the 12th to 15th, fri to monday

That might be my bye week however

Should try and put together a schedule of when all the weeks are in real time

Not a problem at all. :)

This brings up another point...any time all the games get played before the deadline, the week will advance early.
