Let's do it. I'm not a fan of the other league I'm in. Multiple people restarting games and shite. Unacceptable.

I’d be down... you want to start a new one?


See if you can get the good ones from that league to go with you

The only one that played was the commish and some other guy Miketiger123456789 or some shite. We'll need to lay down some ground rules as far as when user v user games will be played. Total cluster last time.

I'll try to get one rolling tonight. what's your GT?

How often do you all advance?

Wouldn't mind whipping up on some people every now and then.

Ok, so where in the season would you like to start? I'd think we remove prior injuries and just start at week 1.

A few other things to consider;

Salary cap is on
Speed disparity set at 30 so running backs can out run linemen.
Run a realistic offense.
Players can go for it on 4th as much as they want as long as they're not up by 21 in the 2nd half.
Onside kicks are allowed unless up by 21 at any point in the game.
Any comments on the above? Anything you'd care to add?

I’m fine with starting at week 1 also

Yep

I’d say no.. I prefer a bigger element of realism.. I’d say it’s ok to go for it on 4th and 1 or less, around midfield, but that’s about it.. defense is hard enough, no reason to make it more difficult... if an nfl team wouldn’t go for it, you shouldn’t either IMO



Another thing I learned in the past was to let an admin, or the league vote on human - CPU trades.. I’ve found that people will give up ridiculous trades involving draft picks that may never be used (league collapses, etc) to leverage the CPU into giving up good players - what do you think about that?

Maybe a compromise of 4th and <5 between the 35's is acceptable? I'm aggressive from around my own 40 to the opposing 40. 4th and 3 from my 45, I'm going for it unless I'm up big.

Yeah, I considered this as well. We'll implement the league admin approval to it. Perhaps we can put it to a quick vote in the league thread where the admin is unsure.

I don’t think we are going to see eye to eye on this , but I wouldn’t quit a league because of it.. let’s get the league somewhat filled, then let everyone vote on it.. is that cool?

I’d like to get a GroupMe chat going as well, it’s easier to stay in touch for things that may need immediate attention. I prefer a fast paced league to keep people involved
