NOFL Season 3 Scheduling Thread

[Eaglesfan27]

Please use this thread only to post confirmed scheduling changes. Remember that you will have to replace all FCS games.

[Ironhead]

EF27:

I would like to remove my week 2 FCS game and replace it with a home game in Week 6 against Notre Dame.

[kingnebwsu]

Here is what I would like Kentucky's non-conference schedule to be:

EDIT: See post in the other thread

I checked the schedules and this should work fine. This gives me 2 home & 2 away non-conference games. Thanks!

You know, I thought octo-mom could safely relish in her title, but you have officially taken over as the BIGGEST PUSSY ON THE PLANET.

I don't even care about playing you, but WTF...These other guys beg for a shot at you, and you run away like a little bitch.

Dude. Nobody respects your titles because you seem to avoid playing humans at all costs. Why is that? Do you not have time to play human opponents? Help me understand, here. It seems after two undefeated seasons, you'd be confident enough in your abilities to go ahead and take on some people non-conference. You've already proven you can beat the computer just fine. You can even beat the bare minimum of human opponents. Why don't you try to extend yourself? You could just play a solo dynasty and not face any humans at all.

Maybe you don't care. I know I'm not alone in these thoughts, though. You just smell like a complete weasel. Who wins two titles in a row without losing a game, and still declines challenges from willing competition? It sounds shady as all hell. I don't know how you play, because I've never played you, but it just seems odd. I wouldn't be surprised if you never lost a game against anybody ever, based upon your track record. It makes it all the more maddening why you turn down challenges of human games. Shouldn't you be confident enough at this point to want to prove your dominance?

Honestly, I'd love to see a round robin between you, cmp, and bignej, just because I don't believe that any of you could ever lose a game. I know bignej and cmp would be down for it, but you seem too aloof.

Hi, my names Danny, first time, long time.

Anyway, just wanted to say hey and well done!

[wade moore]

I NEVER look in NOFL threads. I don't think I've ever clicked on one at all.

Glad I chose now for some reason to do so.

[Logan]

A well-placed PM sent me to this thread...thank you kind sir.

If the schedules aren't set, Mississippi State would love at shot at Kentucky. If anyone else wants another human game I'd up for one. I don't know much about my team yet but hopefully I'll learn quick.

Schedules aren't set yet, but both players have to agree to a game.

[BigDPW]

I think I owe Stanford a road game if he wants me to play at his house.

Also I still want a shot at KingNeb if he is game. C'mon I am a lowly mid-ACC team how could you possibly lose to me! I'll play you in Lexington!

[Sun Tzu]

Stanford is officially challenging Kentucky for the third consecutive year to an out of conference game. I don't care where the game is held...

Do you accept or decline?

BigDPW I think you're right. I'm not really partial to when the game is held...I guess we can set that up when the schedules are viewable?

I thought everyone could view their schedule right now. Maybe Kingneb made it an offline dynasty to view his schedule?

[Sun Tzu]

Maybe...I can't see mine. I mean I could be missing it somewhere, but it's definitely not on the pre-season checklist.

[DeToxRox]

Only the Commish can see the schedules unless you take it offline and check from there.

[Sun Tzu]

Yeah...that's what I thought...me thinks the deadline needs to be extended quite a bit

Wow. Thanks. Although I really enjoy playing in the NOFL, I would appreciate it if it didn't degenerate to unwarranted name-calling. I'd like to think that I've never been unsportsmanlike when playing in the league or commenting on the forum. In return, many of you have generally extended the same courtesy to me, which is why I have enjoyed the league so much. I'm afraid that if we have continue to have posts like this then it may ruin the experience.

In response to the numerous requests to play me, I propose that all human players be required to play at least one game non-conference against another human team every season. This way everyone will get 2-4 games against human opponents every year versus the 1-3 games they get now. I know that many of us have different personal schedules, so hopefully this won't be asking much more time than normal from everyone. When I signed up for the NOFL, I was thinking of it mainly as 12 people playing in the same college football "universe." Going after the same recruits, playing a few conference games against humans, and playing each other in bowl games. I didn't really think of playing people in the non-conference. I'm not on my 360 nearly as much as I used to be, so this setup was ideal for me. I didn't want something like an all-MAC league where I'd be playing 9 human games each season.

Regardless of whether or not there is a league-wide rules change, here is my schedule against humans (subject to approval by my opponents). Mississippi State is already scheduled to play Kentucky in the regular season this year (as is the other SEC human team, Arkansas). I will gladly play versus Stanford in week 2 this year. I'll gladly play N.C. State in 2011 (unless we play in the 2010 Bowl game). By this time (if not before), the next version of NCAA will be out and our league affiliations will be completely changed and our yearly conference opponents will probably be completely different.

Good luck to everyone and I look forward to (eventually) playing most of you.

You're welcome, everyone.

EDIT: And I know it may have been abrasive, but it sure did seem to work!

[Sun Tzu]

Kingsneb - I responded to your week 2 accept in the other thread, since I guess this thread is supposed to only be for confirmed schedule changes.

I have no dog in this fight, but as commisioner of a league that is entering it's fourth season [pat on the back] I must say that it is pretty annoying to see people who refuse to take on human games. Isn't that the purpose of online leagues? I mean yeah you have possibly two human games a season, but that is not enough. In RFL this year I played 3 non conference games, plus 3 - 4 conference games, and in EBFL I have four in a row coming up, plus one at the end of the year and I am using a team that has no talent.

I just don't see the point in playing the CPU all the time and winning 84-21. If you're that good then play Human players and you'll win anyway. At least then you get a challenge.

But whatever floats your boat I guess. From the sounds of this you'd rather go 13-0 and rack up achievements or whatever the hell those are then risk actually losing a game.

I just know come 2010 those are the kind of people I will make sure are not in the league I run because otherwise I'd just play a regular offline dynasty all the time.

[DeToxRox]

Dola .. I don't know why people would duck Karl anyways. He doesn't even win games until he has to play the computer but I'll give him credit, he ususally has a full tilt of human non conference opponents.

[Sun Tzu]

Yeah seriously, Karl sucks.

[Raiders Army]

In all seriousness, I got lucky beating Karl last season. I think it was only because I had homefield advantage. I must suck worse than him!

[kcchief19]

Sorry I've been so busy and haven't had a chance to setup a schedule. I have open weeks in 3 and 4 plus I have patsies in weeks 12 and 14. I'm willing to drop a patsy and pick up a human if anyone is interested in one of those weeks and drop the UCF game.

[Raiders Army]

Week 15: Conference Championship

Bolded games are my non-conference games.

Updated schedule for Oklahoma State.

[Raiders Army]

Just so you guys know, I will be away in El Paso from April 27th through at least May 11th. I will not be able to play any games then. Just a rough guesstimate, but I think I'll miss my games with kcchief and SirFoz.

[Kodos]

Entertaining thread.

[BigDPW]

Schedule for NC State:

Week 1 - Kentucky (H)
Week 2 - Oklahoma State (H)
Week 6 - Open
Week 9 - Open
Week 12 - at ECU (A)
Week 14 - Vanderbilt (H)

I may have bit off more than I can chew with 3 human opponents and 5 preseason top 25 opponents on my schedule... I am looking forward to the challenge though.

Thanks for setting up the schedules EF. Must be thrilling work
