This expectation of sub-24 hour advance is fucking ridiculous. If you advance the week at 1am and say "All games due Wednesday at 8pm" don't then get pissy when someone can't play that same day you advance. It's fucking stupid.

I don't get mad if a game of mine is simmed 24-hours ahead of what the advance schedule is (even though that happened), mostly because I have a better chance to win if the game is simmed, I get mad that other people feel inconvenienced that the league should go by the advance schedule.

I have about 5 seconds to log onto Gaf at work and about 5 minutes at night (hence right now). I go into the thread, scan through posts, write 1 reply, and sign off. I used to have all goddam day last year until I got my new job, but that's not the case anymore.

ANyway I responded to your email so stop your whining. But -- in all seriousness, and not like me being mad or anything, if you guys would prefer to have 18-hour advance schedules, I can't keep up with that, so I'll drop out. And I'm not saying that in like a complaining way or an ultimatum way (DO THIS OR ELSE!!!!), I mean it legitimately, if the expectation is that we'll advance within one day every week, then that's fine, but I just don't have time in my schedule right now for that.

I don't disagree with this, Tross. The too-fast advances are just a byproduct of everyone getting antsy because Guild Wars 2, Madden, and a bunch of other games are about to come out and well, we'll see what happens then

No communication ..

League advances at 1am.
I am at work or driving to work or coming home from work between 6am - 6pm; I get home, have to head out the door to meet up with people. I get home at 10pm and reply to any emails/thread posts/etc.

This accounts for my 5 seconds of time on gaf today

i don't give a shit about advancing the same day but for christ sake i ask "when can you play" then you post like 5 hours later and don't even respond! it's not about advancing so much as it is communication. i don't think anyone has ever complained if you just tell someone what the expectation is. "hey i can't play today, i can play tomorrow". you aren't the only one with a life bruh, i have shit to do too so when i have no idea when you're going to be around to play it makes it difficult

Sorry I missed your post asking "can you play" which was one post within about 30 others, the others of which were about penis and animated gifs. now, I dont know about you, but penis is a lot more fascinating to me than your 10 character posts.

And when you emailed me I think I responded like 10 minutes after I got it.

This sounds like FMT's fuckup. Should have exchanged phone numbers, or at least personal street addresses.

Maybe some skype. A marriage if necessary.

This league will definitely slow down soon anyways. Madden's coming out, NHL is coming out, that doesn't even include all the other stuff people will be doing on the side

Damn it, I still have not received a Planetside 2 invite. :(

The quick advances end this weekend with the release of Guild Wars 2. The NCAA league had a good run.

like a season long tournament. No one would care about recruiting, all leading to the only game that matter, the CCG. Randomize the divisions. Could use Conference USA as the replacement conference, and shutter all our teams in there. Total chaos.

BTW, it should be noted that right now, for some reason, I have admin privies in the franchise...........................

I realized this when I went to click "Ready" and it gave me the option to Advance the week. Additionally, I have full access to user teams, transfer commish, etc.

Too bad you weren't there to stop me in the National Title game. You could have auto winned with fumble garbage like you receved in our opening season match up!

You also lost to Pheenix. That's a stain which lasts forever.

You guys notice how the game hardly ever uploads anymore after games? Like your photos, video, game log, etc. It never goes through .. hangs on 100%
