guys i just found a great shortcut to entering game stats. test it out and tell me how it goes. follow these steps:

1. go to "schedule"
2. find the game you want to enter stats for, click on that game.
3. near the top of the page, click on "import game stats"
4. go to your email that EA sends you, then copy the ENTIRE message they sent you (from top to bottom)
5. go to the "Paste entire content from email below" section and past whate you copied from email
6. hit "continue"
7. follow the simple directions and matchup the stats

boom you are done! this cuts the game stat entering time in half or more.

guys i am going to buy more stats for Game and Player stats. i know you are saying "oh christ now i have to enter MORE stats!?" but honestly we need them. something just isn't right about missing things like punt returns, 3rd down conversions, redzone conversions and so on. it's only $1 extra per 10 stat block so its definitely worth it

Just did stats from my first game, didn't take too long.

Will be even quicker now that my lineup is saved. Quick question, anyone know if injuries online can sometimes last more than the game and if so does that player have to sit out in the league?

They don't carry over into your next game.....and we aren't going to make you sit them. So to recap, injuries are a non factor.

Nope. :( I think that would be an awesome addition, though.

It should be in my league profile as well. I can either play sometime later tonight or pretty much anytime tommorrow. Rorschach and I are playing ours tommorrow at 2 (I was supposed to go to Seahawks preseason game tonight, but plans fell through).

Newsguy/Coldblooded, I changed your preseason week 2 matchup so Lonestar and malley can play tonight. Malley had newsguy twice for some reason, and this works out. So just telling you guys that in week two (really you can play preseason games in any order, we just call it a week) you two are facing each other. Normally this wouldn't happen, but it's preseason so things move around.

No problem. I wouldn't want to beat Malley twice ;) I'll be home at midnight, if either person wants to play let me know.

There should be an option in "my madden' online to give them an email to send it to, and to check a box or something to get them started. It should make sense if you look there.

Also, the site has been updated with some nice new logos, courtesy of CP. The page is looking great (except for FMT's picture at the top)

Very nice :lol :lol

edit: News (and everyone else who's listening) I saw you put 0's in all the columns that a player had nothing recorded in. That's fine....but it's not needed. You can just do what malley did and write down only the stats that were above 0. As I said, it doesn't matter if you put 0's, but if anyone was wondering, you don't have to.

guys, scratch "importing" your email from EA for the time being. i've been testing it out and it's still a little wonky (sometimes mixes up the stats between the two players). input them as normal, sorry about getting your hopes up :(

Great news. I estimate I spent about 5 extra minutes typing zeros.

I forgot to post about this. Seems as if the team that is AWAY should be entering the stats in order to get them correct.

Opps, for some reason I counted wrong. But seriously, why are the Titans 0-1 if no one is using them?

i have the final division layouts/teams composed and ready to upload as soon as i have a final roster list. i think you will find the new division layouts tough but fair in many instances. no one in any division is being given a free ride, and there should be lots of competition throughout the conferences and divisions. anyone currently in the league, please do me the following favor(s):

1. if you are happy with the league, and have no problem entering stats, do nothing. i will assume you are ready and willing to play

2. if you have any problems (ranging from you dont want to play in the league anymore because of stats, or can't because your xbox died or whatever maybe wrong) please contact me by tonight. i need to get to work on the schedule and despite the appearance of an "easy" thing, the schedule is infact the most difficult and time consuming part of the pre-season. it would be a great help to me if i could get a head start on it.
