Online Dynasty 300

[cnotes008]

OK, it is what it is. I have looked at the stats and it is not pretty. Pound, I dont know you at all really, but come on these stats tell the story.

You claim emergency QB of a CB ok, you have 5qbs and RS 2 adding another CB to make 6. ??????? doenst make sense. Your HB is a 98 speed, 68 overall. Speed is great, but come on what coach would do this in real life. A guy like this can only run outside.

Here are some stats from your games:
last game 26 carries, 345 yrds, 7 td, 12 ypc,10 YAC, come on 10 YAC.
Against Va tech, 31 carries, 402 yrds, 5tds 15 yrd after contact, come on man
a human game now, 118 yards on 25 carries, long 1 yards
human game, 87 yards on 15 carries, long 12
human game, 89 yards on 15, long 32
Stanford game, QB 33 carries, 237 yards, RB 18 carries for 299, 9 combined Tds 1 pass thrown this game
Navy game, 29 carries, 540 yards, put a bench player in, oh yeah he should be in a real game

I agree with UK 100% what you are doing is unreal. The evidence is very clear. I do my recruiting and games like I am a real coach. that makes it fun for me. Your games cant be very fun doin that shit. come on. I have never considered moving a CB to QB, cuz there are others to choose from. I am sure you will argue back, but the evidence is making you look pretty guilty.

#1...IT'S A FREAKIN' GAME. I don't need to "justify" how I play the CPU. Matt set up this OD and stated that there is no score limit against the cpu. I simply run my plays and yes, the cpu AI is that bad where my guy can out run them and gain big yards.

#2...Thank you for the stat update..you have proven my point that against human players, it's a different game played. The human players stop my HB because they can control a player and NOT have him run away from the HB like the cpu does.

#3...The stats you stated were for my HB...then you bring up the QB situation..makes zero sense.

#4...I play this game to have fun...I don't have restart warnings and I play the human coaches straight up. I could care less about your stats..I'm not "investigating" your players because I don't give a damn if you are throwing to your one WR all the time. It is NOT my fault that the cpu is too damn easy in this game (which I perfer to play other humans).

#5...I NEVER claimed emergency QB..I claimed that I like to run option style and wanted the fasted guy I could that had the highest THP/THA that wasn't a QB to switch positions. I can't run him all the time because he can't throw..so I use a duel QB system for now until hopefully he can be built up. HE WAS NOT A CONVERTED CORNERBACK! HE WAS AN ATH...best stats at HB but I didn't need him there. Look at his freakin' MCV and ZCV since you're so interested.

#6...The issue seems to be more with the QB situation that nobody has straight anyway. But the "complaint" seems to have come about the HB.

I don't think I should need to justify myself..but I will so you guys can realize maybe just how stupid and childish you are all being about this:

One of my most favorite part of dynasties to the off-season..position changes, cutting players, etc. I enjoy spending much time sorting and switching guys around the roster. The first season I found a speedy guy that was recruited at CB but had some great speed. The team was more than fine at the CB position and this player's overall even at CB warranted him to be cut...but no way was I going to sacrifice that speed. So I moved him to HB and he was 3rd on my roster. The first game of the season my starter went out for the season. He ran backup and did a bang-up job...
My speedy starter then left the team (which we cannot convince to stay) and I was then left with what EA considers my "impact" HB which never carried much, this now sophomore who had proven himself the previous season, and 5 FRESHMEN HB's.
I sorted by AWR and guess what...my so-called "impact" HB and my phenom sophomore HB were both at 81..the highest rating for any of my players for AWR at the HB position. the speed difference was 98-87...so guess who I chose to start? Yep..the HB with 98 speed and an 81 AWR!
guess what else? I redshirted 3 of my HB's so my 3rd string HB has 95 speed and only 45 AWR.

In other words, it's all part of the game and I am not "trying to take advantage" because this is the situation I'm dealt with. My "impact" HB sees the field and gets carries..but on the field he's not half as good as my "68 overall rated" HB. And yes, with that kind of speed "realistically" you want to get that speed to the outside. But I'm not cheese about it and the most of his big runs are breaking one up through the middle anyway. Other than that it's legit sweeps, options, tosses, slants, options. Yes, even mixing it up against the cpu results in this guy going nuts BECAUSE EA's AI IS A JOKE.

I will continue giving my HB the ball and letting him work wonders on the field. He'll probably leave early at the end of the season so hopefully my backups can fill the spot. This isn't the NDL because we don't just play human players...we play the pathetic AI of EA who can't stop shit and offensively is usually a joke. Maybe my HB will get hurt and be out for the USC game and you'll all be happy.

My starting QB is the best QB in the nation...nobody seems to care...

If you took the time to read all of this...thanks...I hated the fact that I had felt I had to write it.

[jsence2]

I don't want him to be out for the USC game. Kaveinga and Co. are looking forward to getting him into traffic....we'll see how well he holds onto the ball with 50 carry when he gets laid out .

Now you just need to stop taking recruiting with 95 speed who were also considering USF, speaking of RBs .

[cnotes008]

Wow, I made it to #2. I actually did zero research on those numbers. They were given to me by someone who wanted me to comment. So I did. I never read the dynasty rules and probably never will. I took 1 rule that apparently is not there for granted. Reality. As long as I play real, I will never need to read rules.

I personally could care less on how you play, but like I said it was brought to me and I was asked to comment.

Good Day

he also needs to stop recruiting top 50 players who like USC

Is this dynasty still going or what? 5 days since last advance. Are we just doing this in real time now? I under stand people get busy, if a person can't play 1 game every 2-3 days then they should not be in dynasties. There is a handfull that get in and take care of business in a timely manner. It seems to be the same ones week after week that don't. So I vote to either ask those behind to retire or just advance without them. I am sure they wont be mad if we advance without them, especially since they dont log in for weeks at a time.

Peace

I've been trying to wait until everyone gets done, but I agree. I am going in tonight and I'm going to remove dead weight, I will get some new guys in as we go along so we can get a full group of competitive guys. Not gonna wait for people anymore. I always play, recruit, and advance all at once, so I'll do my stuff tonight and move us along.

[jsence2]

Ok, two things:

1) I advanced us. We will advance Friday night/Saturday morning.

2) EA sometimes can tell on you. If you are super-simming, I may catch you. Let's make sure we're all playing our games 100%--no letting the CPU play defense for you. If you're up 28, per the rule Matt established at the outset, then it is an option. Defense is hard, but we're all expected to stop the other team, not let the CPU do it.

I for one do not care if anyone sims out their game on offense or defense. My goal is to get through my cpu games as quickly as possible then enjoy the user games. Screw EA for their glitches and I'm sorry, but I will continue to sim my offense and/or defense when I get bored playing the cpu.
I think the true travesty is when guys join a dynasty then never play their games or don't even sign in and we then end up waiting days for them only to have it simmed out anyway. Or when guys quit the game because they are losing and restart it, which I doubt is the case in our dynasty.

I know that I joined this OD because it was a fun addition to play some more games aside from the NDL season against some great other users from the NDL. If you want it to become some "rule" governed OD against the cpu, that's fine, but it's not what I thought this was started for

Sounds like you just need to run your own dynasty. I personally see no difference between someone not playing and the game being simmed and some one super simming there game. It's the same thing. If the game bores you maybe you need a break.

[pounddarock]

Funny because I do run my own and we're on season 2012..going strong. Guys do it because they have fun. The game can get boring against the cpu, which is why I stated that playing against users is the main reason I wanted to join this OD.
I see a huge difference between those that don't bother playing and hold up the rest of the league and those that play and sim some of the game. If you don't want to be involved in an online dynasty, which the biggest benefit is to recruit against other guys and play against real human players, then play your own offline dynasty and have fun.
Also, this OD wasn't started by Matt to have all these regulations in play against the cpu, it was a chance for us NDL guys to meet up in a dynasty mode and have fun.
If you want a strict OD that puts regulations on everything you do against the cpu, then start your own I guess...or you can hijack someone else's and change the rules as you go along

Thats great you have your own, news flash, this is not it. This rule looks to have been in place from the begining, so your one trying to change things it would seem. If you cannot handle playing against the cpu in a tight game then good for you, but I call it weak and think we should only be allowed to do it in the even of a blowout. What do the rest of you guys think?

[jsence2]

Nobody is saying you can't super-sim when you're up big.

My point is that everyone has pretty much been in agreement along all online dynasties that you should play your entire game--offense and defense both.

If you can't stop a team and you super-sim on defense so that you can win, you are not just "getting your game done". You are winning a game you didn't deserve to win; you're staying in recruiting battles with kids you would ultimately lose; and you're being unfair to the other owners.

I'm not changing any rule here--I'm simply pointing out and enforcing a rule currently in existence. And you will be hardpressed to find people who don't see super-simming on defense as weak.

We will advance tomorrow night. We have two people who aren't playing--Matt (not gonna boot him, he started this), and ASU/Steelcity, whose PS3 has hit the fritz and I will not boot him until I know more.

[jsence2]

Forgot to post, I advanced us yesterday.

We will advance Tuesday night. ASU is on autopilot until he gets settled, he has moved and is settling in, and will be back with us soon.

[UCWeiser]

we advancing tonight?

[jsence2]

Yes, I apologize, had some personal things come up last night and I did not get a chance to play/advance us.

[pounddarock]

Been trying to get in touch with jsence, but haven't heard anything back in a couple days. sorry for the hold up guys...

[jsence2]

Sorry, been busy with midterms. We'll play this evening if you're free.
