Nice. I'll check on everyones status when I get home. Hopefully we can advance tonight. If not I'll wait until tomorrow to advance. Hoping to advance every other day once we pick up steam. For now since we just got started and it's a holiday weekend I'll give it some time. Also allows us more time to pick up others interested and still give them a clean slate to work with.

I'm not going to be super strict as we only have a few members so I have no real leverage to boot people. I'm more concerned about cheese in user games than an occasional restart, but yes, lets be honest and not restart unless there's a legit issue.

as far as the speed disparity, I set this up under standard settings at all pro difficulty. I'll adjust this as I see fit (i.e. if we're all winning by 40 against CPU we'll adjust to make it more fun). I'll look into the disparity when I get home as to be quite honest I have no idea what the standard setting is.

Cool. It's set to 50 as a standard, which allows someone like Fournette to be caught from behind by someone like Craig Robertson. Robertson is fast an all, but no way in hell is he gonna catch Fournette. The higher the number, the more equal everyone's speed is, which is just unrealistic.

I'm not sure who that is. I guess he saw the thread and joined cause it doesn't look like he posted. Send him a message on live, I want to get this game in before tonight so we can advance.

It also means you're going to get guys putting up insane numbers and makes speed way more important than it should.

No that only happens when it's set to 0. We should be able to take advantage of someone giving single coverage on the outside to a burner like Desean Jackson or Tarik Hill. With it set to 50, their speed is much less important, which takes away a fundamental aspect of football. Not to mention, I shouldn't be able to run away from a LB with Blake fricking Bortles and pick up 25 yards like I did against Houston.

Have you reached out to lukeman on live? Let's get this game in by 9 pm. If he doesn't respond I'll put him on autopilot so you can play and we can advance

Advanced. Please get your games in. I don't wanna have to start booting people at week 2 with no user games.

It's hard to keep something going with adults who have little interest in the game itself.

I’m playing solo franchise mode right now, and going into my second game, I have 8 people on my injury list with a cumulative total of 81 weeks worth of injuries... wtf?!?



Also, looking to get into an online league. Any spots available?

I'm sure there are, but this league isn't progressing as far as I know. No one is using the thread to inform anyone of anything.

I've tried but never get any real responses in this thread. I'm still keeping up with it, none of the other users seem to ever play though. It isn't a well oiled machine thats for sure.

I hear ya. It may be best to start kik group or something. Seeing responses on here (or checking to see if someone responded) is not the same as having a notification show up on your phone. I haven't checked since saturday morning, but I was supposed to go up against some user but he never responded to my message to get the game in.
