Also, is everyone cool if I just quicksim to the regular season?

[Sun Tzu]

Someone said 5 days max, and I think that's fair. I'm also all for advancing early if everyone gets their games in early. I mean, 3/4 of the weeks there will only be 1 (or less) game that's 2 people actually playing against each other.

Also, I'm on-board with advancing to the 1st week of the Regular Season, too.

I claimed the 49ers. I tried and tried to pick another team, but I just couldn't bring myself to pick anybody but my Niners.

[BillJasper]

I just joined as the Eagles. McCoy and Sproles were just too tasty a tandem to pass up!

Should be good to move straight to the regular season.

[korme]

5 days max might be weird, because the schedule would be all over the place. What if we did two advances per week?

I could be in for Wednesday and Sunday are force advance days. Say, noonish EST

And if everyone is cool with that, I'll advance the league tomorrow to the regular season and we can get some play in.

[BillJasper]

Works for me.

[korme]

I just 'started' the franchise now, give you guys some time to mingle with any changes you want to make before fast forwarding to the regular season tomorrow.

[Sun Tzu]

Sounds great! Wednesday and Sunday advances at noon EST.

Diggin it!

[Butter]

I'm in as the Bengals. I'm on board for 2 advances a week.

[Groundhog]

Works for me - again, could be scheduling issues given where I am as far as human-human games go, although currently I have none on my schedule. :)

[IlliniCub]

I took the Bears!

[Groundhog]

I took the Bears!

Chalk yourself up some W's on weeks 11 and 17. :D

[Butter]

So, are the sliders already set, or do I need to set them to the Armor & Swords sliders?

[korme]

So, are the sliders already set, or do I need to set them to the Armor & Swords sliders?

They are universaaly set for the league. I believe I'm the only one who can change them.

[Sun Tzu]

IlliniCub, I'll see you in Week 2 for some digital revenge!

[korme]

I just walloped the Jets, 48-6. It was probably the best game I've ever played. I've never experienced such a soft defense. It was great fun.

[korme]

My old roommate just signed up as the Patriots. I'm going to get him to signup on the forums.

[markprior22]

In as Cowboys.

[Jon]

Took the Seahawks, as I lost a bet with a coworker

[korme]

Looks like Sun Tzu and markprior need to link up for a good time between now and Sunday.

[Jon]

Was I supposed to create a new owner?

Dangit.

[Groundhog]

We took down the Rams 28-10 thanks to a solid first half and a strong running game by rookie Banyard in Peterson's absence... A lot of injuries to deal with right now, my defense and offensive line are woeful.

[korme]

Not the end of the world. I wonder if I can kick you out, then invite you back in.

But then I'd be afraid you'd be blocked or something.

[Zinto]

I am looking to join the the next couple of days when I get home. My PSN name is Patarang

[Sun Tzu]

markprior and I are working on scheduling our first game via PM.

[korme]

I am looking to join the the next couple of days when I get home. My PSN name is Patarang

Sent an invite to ya.

[korme]

I would be stoked if markprior and Illinicub could edit their owner info under the team tab to fix those all CAPS names. Ugh. :)

[Zinto]

Sent an invite to ya.


Thank you! Jon can retire and rejoin as an owner without ever truly leaving the league

[BillJasper]

I'm the loser that actually lost (20-17).

Got to say that I really disliked the settings, felt like I was running in molasses the entire game. Foles got hurt and was lost for the game in the third quarter. One penalty in the entire game, a face mask that put the Jaguars in FG range with about 1:20 left in the game. Bortles was throwing darts at my guys all game and no one could catch them. I threw 3 INT's. One from Barkley to seal the game.

The other thing was that there was a 19 MPH wind. I lined up for a FG try lined everything up and had a full power bar and the kick still sailed way left.

[IlliniCub]

Yeah I'll see if I can fix that! Didn't notice the caps still new to my ps4!

[Groundhog]

One of my picks was me trying to jam in the RS to throw the ball away, and my thumb slipped and hit 'X', throwing it straight at 3 defenders.

[Sun Tzu]

Yeah, I did notice that we have game mode on slow. I haven't tried that before, but I'm wondering if there's any particular reason we did that?

[korme]

Yeah, I did notice that we have game mode on slow. I haven't tried that before, but I'm wondering if there's any particular reason we did that?

It's what those sliders call for

[BillJasper]

It's what those sliders call for

I'll adjust but the slow speed feels really weird. Threw my game off. Yeah, that's why I lost! :lol:

[IlliniCub]

Yeah I lost a sloppy one to the bills

[Jon]

Thank you! Jon can retire and rejoin as an owner without ever truly leaving the league

How does one go about doing that?

[korme]

Go to manage roster, I believe retire is the last option

[korme]

FYI guys I just realized under the options tab under all the people with the trade block stuff, I have a media question so I'm sure you all do, too.

[markprior22]

I would be stoked if markprior and Illinicub could edit their owner info under the team tab to fix those all CAPS names. Ugh. :)

Will do

[Sun Tzu]

Mark and I have our Week 1 game scheduled for 2ish PST tomorrow.

[Jon]

So I retired--- I need a new league invite though.

[korme]

So I retired--- I need a new league invite though.

done

[Jon]

So I was blacklisted by the Seahawks and can't pick them again.

I took the Giants--- a far worse team

And then I proceed to lose the first game.

[korme]

Damn, sorry man

[Butter]

I got crushed 41-7 by the Ravens. I gave up a TD to them on their opening drive. Then on my drive, AJ Green fumbles at their 25, which was returned for a TD. It was all downhill from there. If you look at the game stats, aside from my awful QB percentage, you can't tell that I got crushed... But I did.

[korme]

So I believe after mark and Sun play their game, the league will automatically advance if anyone wants to get their second game in today. I'm working for most of the day, so I'll probably try to squeeze mine in before or after the Bengals game tomorrow.

[korme]

We have 11 guys in as of right now. I'd say that's pretty damn good.

[markprior22]

Cowboys took their whipping as expected. Good game Sun.

[Terps]

I hopped in and took the Colts, sorry for being last minute.

I lost 20-17 to Denver. I knocked Peyton out of the game in the 1st quarter, it was only 6-3 Denver at the half. Broncos only scored 2 TD's, one on a pick six, and on their final drive where they drove down the field at will and left me with a minute to play.

I had 120ish yards with Richardson, both of my TD's came on passes to TY Hilton. I also missed a field goal wide right earlier in the game that could have sent this to OT.

[Sun Tzu]

Mark and I played our game, and despite the final score of 39-17, it was pretty close through the 3rd quarter. I really pulled away when Romo's offensive line collapsed in the second half.

POTG has to go to Carlos Hyde, who busted off a long run on the second play of the game. Frank Gore is out for the first few weeks, so it's nice to see the rookie step up when we needed him.

Good game, Mark. Best of luck the rest of the way.

[korme]

Both of you wearing white... was that the game not realizing that all teams against Dallas should be wearing their colorful unis? That seems like a nightmare.

How was the connection? Experience any noticeable lag?

[korme]

And how did you take that screenshot?

[markprior22]

I didn't have any lag or connection issues on my end

[korme]

From what I understand, everyone has played their week 1 game. As a future reference, just hit 'Ready to Advance' so the league will automatically advance once everyone has played.

Just to err on the side of caution, I'll wait until tomorrow at noon to force the advance.

[korme]

Week has advanced. Eagles/Colts, Pats/Vikings are this week's H2H

[BillJasper]

Who has the Colts? I'll need to schedule the game for tomorrow or Tuesday if possible?

[Sun Tzu]

I have a H2H matchup, too. Bears @ 49ers.

Our game is already scheduled for 9pm PST/11pm CST on Tuesday.

I took the screenshot by going to the highlights area after the game, finding a play that I wanted to take a screenshot of, and then hitting the "share" button on my controller. I then shared it to Facebook (to myself only), saved the file, and then uploaded it here. I had to shrink the picture resolution down to about 40% of it's original size, just FYI. That thing comes out massive.

I didn't experience any game crushing lag, though I did have a few hiccups here and there. Surprisingly smooth for an online game, though. Two thumbs up.

[korme]

Who has the Colts? I'll need to schedule the game for tomorrow or Tuesday if possible?

Check the first post. I'll constantly keep it up to date.

[Groundhog]

My old roommate just signed up as the Patriots. I'm going to get him to signup on the forums.

I've got him up next, is there any way for me to get in contact? I'm going to be a real pain in the ass to match times with given the time zones, but I'll do my best to accomodate.

[BillJasper]

Check the first post. I'll constantly keep it up to date.

I'm wlj1701a.

[Terps]

I have Indy. We can try to schedule something for tomorrow.

[BillJasper]

I have Indy. We can try to schedule something for tomorrow.

Something between 6pm and 9pm EST work for you?

[Terps]

Sure... Maybe around 7?

[BillJasper]

Should work for me.

[korme]

Trying to get him to sign up. He manages at a bar so his weird nighttime schedule might work out well here. I know he is completely off tomorrow. Try through Madden for now, I'll bug him tomorrow

[BillJasper]

Sure... Maybe around 7?

Is 6:30pm possible? I had something pop up for 8:15 and didn't want to leave you hanging while I took care of it...

[BillJasper]

Eagles/Colts are suffering a delay due to both of us having something to do. Anticipating kickoff @ 8:20pm EST. :lol:

[BillJasper]

The connection timed out in the 2nd quarter. :rant:

[Terps]

Ugh. Well, it was fun while it lasted, I don't want to hop in again and not be able to finish it out.

Bill ran a pick six back on me on my first drive, as well as picking me off on my first pass of my second drive, haha.

He was moving the ball really well, and I started to as well after the two early picks, mostly with Trent Richardson. I had just broke off a big run with a facemask tacked on and it started lagging, and then it seemed fine, I went to snap, connection lost.

[BillJasper]

One thing that was odd: the camera view. The first game I played against the CPU, the camera was zoomed like it is in the default setting. This game against Terps was like I was sitting in the nose bleed seats.

[Terps]

You should be able to cycle the cameras with up and down on the D pad.

[Groundhog]

Trying to get him to sign up. He manages at a bar so his weird nighttime schedule might work out well here. I know he is completely off tomorrow. Try through Madden for now, I'll bug him tomorrow

I sent him a msg on PSN, still nothing as yet.

[korme]

You should have gotten a game invite back

[Sun Tzu]

Illinicub and I played our game this evening. It was a hard fought battle, but in the end Jay Cutler just couldn't quite get the ball into the Endzone. Kaep had two touchdown passes, and Ahmad Brooks returned a Matt Forte fumble for a TD to cap a 24-6 win in Levi Stadium.

GG Illini, and best of luck the rest of the way!

[korme]

Raiders move to 3-0.

Brady threw 5 picks, including 3 INT-TDs. With 10 minutes to go in the 2nd Qtr, the Raiders were up 35-0.

But Brady came out firing and their defense shut me down the rest of the way, and I hung on to win 38-31. No thanks to Janikowski, who missed 3 FGs, and big thanks to Shane Vereen, who fumbled twice, giving the Raiders 7 total takeaways.

I did what the Raiders should have done in real life and started purging veterans from the roster. I traded MJD and James Jones, and have signed and used younger players. It's worked well so far. HB Kenjon Barner, who I picked up in FA, now has 281 yards over the first 3 games of the year. But the star of the offense has been TE Mychal Rivera - 25 rec, 349 yds, 4 TD thru 3 games.

[Terps]

I don't know what the consensus is with the Armor & Sword sliders, but I think they're awful. Something is wrong when backup QB's rarely have a pass go incomplete.

I'm playing my week 3 game and Bortles has started the game 12-16, and in week 1 when I knocked out Peyton, Dysert came in and was completing nearly everything as well.

I don't seem to have the same issues when I play offline, but I don't use those sliders either.

[Groundhog]

I didn't have any luck re: my matchup last night, I'll try again this afternoon. When's the round being progressed?

Re: the sliders, I don't know what difficulty we're playing on in this league offhand, but I've found offline that bumping the difficulty level up to the highest actually helps hinder AI QB play a little - ie. not 34/40 completion rates regardless of opponent - because they attempt to try to throw down the field and let plays develop, rather than complete the 4-5 yard pass after 1.5 seconds.

[Terps]

I didn't have any luck re: my matchup last night, I'll try again this afternoon. When's the round being progressed?


Sorry buddy, it was processed today at noon, as per the rules. Sorry you guys couldn't work something out, but you can play your week 3 game at any time.

[korme]

I don't know what the consensus is with the Armor & Sword sliders, but I think they're awful. Something is wrong when backup QB's rarely have a pass go incomplete.

I'm playing my week 3 game and Bortles has started the game 12-16, and in week 1 when I knocked out Peyton, Dysert came in and was completing nearly everything as well.

I don't seem to have the same issues when I play offline, but I don't use those sliders either.

If anyone has any better suggestions, I'm all up for listening and altering. I've had similar experiences, but I've also had games where QBs couldn't do anything.

It's hard to find a balance. I don't want sliders that completely favor the user.

edit: After all that, here is Bortles final line:

Bortles 26/37 213 0 1

Not much to complain about man. You won 21-0.

[Terps]

His line only ended up like that in the 4th quarter when every play was a pass and they actually had to try to force the ball down the field.

[Terps]

Looking at the league completion percentage leaders, you have to go down to a 5 way tie for 13th (67%) before you see a QB controlled by a user.

Edit - Forgot to add, I didn't remember Dysert's line from week 1, but that was 16-22.

[Terps]

I just checked his sliders out on OS, I think one of the problems is he has the QB Accuracy set to 10 so the AI only makes throws it knows it can make, which are dump offs and short passes.

Hmmm, so you think raising the accuracy is going to decrease it? I don't know if the AI is that smart.

[korme]

BTW, how did you get that boxscore? I am continually impressed with what you guys are showing me.

I'd love to post stats & standings in this thread, but the connected franchise (http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/connected-franchise/home/game/2/751829019/751829018/176859.ps4) page isn't very copy+pastey (or user friendly, to be frank)

[Terps]

I'm not sure, just reading threads about how people think the sliders work, some said to raise that because it makes the AI dumber and make safer throws. Some people said to lower coverage but raise another slider to counteract it. Some people lower the catching way down so the receivers drop more balls. Some people think the intentional grounding slider has something to do with it. It's a mess, haha.

For the box score, you go here Operation Sports Generators - Create great tables for MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL and more! (http://dynasties.operationsports.com/generator.php?act=create&gid=1&sport=nfl) fill everything in, and then it will give you HTML code to paste here.

[Groundhog]

Sorry buddy, it was processed today at noon, as per the rules. Sorry you guys couldn't work something out, but you can play your week 3 game at any time.

Yeah that's fine, no probs! Argh, a bye.... :D

[Groundhog]

I had the game at default 50 for AI QB Accuracy the first week I had it, and every QB was Peyton Manning.

Bummer that it's not a direct translation from Madden, aka that's a lot of typing. But I might do a top ten leaderboard every 1/4 of the season, I'm off on Wednesdays, so it's not like I have anything better to do with my time.

Edit: For shits and giggles, here's the boxscore from the wild game 3 I played:

[IlliniCub]

Finally on the board with a win! Beat the Giants today. Glad to know I'm not going 0-16

[Groundhog]

I was down 21-0 to the Saints after a couple of unlucky picks thrown by Bridgewater... both resulted from WRs dropping passes after taking a hit. We made a nice comeback in the 2nd half, but we failed to stop the Saints on a 3rd and 5 to get the ball back.

Lost Bridgewater to a broken jaw for 6 weeks.. Yikes. No Peterson, no Bridgewater, lost my best lineman too... like we weren't bad enough as it is!

[BillJasper]

I'm not going to have access to my PS4 for the next week so you guys will have to go on without me and I can either retire or jump back in when I can.

[korme]

It's cool we'll just sim until you're back into it.

Advancing to week 4 now.

[korme]

Playing against the 0-3 Dolphins, and this is the first time I've felt like I'm playing with a crappy team. Down 13-3 halfway through the third quarter. It's like they've been scouting how I've played. My "go to" Z-Spot has been completely shut down.

[korme]

HB Kenjon Barner explodes after giving his team the lead. He is the only one excited.

Just realized I have a bye in Week 5, so after already completing my game I don't get to play until next Sunday. Boo bye weeks!

[Sun Tzu]

Are you playing in London?

[korme]

Are you playing in London?

Yes, I had the volume down so I don't know if the announcers made a note of it, but the sidelines had London painted on them and the NFL shield was in the center of the field.

[IlliniCub]

Is there a way to uncheck the simulate box? I accidentally hit the simulate box and now it says it willbe simulated when the week advances and I can't uncheck it!

[Sun Tzu]

I just saw that BillJasper is afk this week. I'm scheduled to play him, so I'll try to get that game in tonight or tomorrow night.

[Groundhog]

Beat the Falcons last night with surprising ease, holding them to two FGs. I also had the longest TD run I've had yet in this Madden with Banyard, who tore the Falcons apart on the ground.

Ryan had the worst QB game I've ever seen from an AI QB in this year's Madden. He was still pretty accurate, but 3 picks to no TDs is a real rarity, especially against the Vikings' sucky defense.

Try to go through the screen on the page after the news page, either owner or team.

I've either gotta be out of the league, or you're going to have to be ok with me being in and out over the next few weeks. Major crunch at work has me working most nights, and my weekends are taken up with visits to Clemson and then Disney World in October. I literally don't have a weekend free until Halloween weekend.

Whatever you decide is fine with me, I hadn't won a game playing yet anyway because I am thoroughly unable to stop the AI offense, nor have I been able to figure out how to move the ball with these sliders.

But I would gladly jump back in when I have time after a few weeks if that's ok with everyone. If not, I understand. Thanks.

[korme]

I can put you on computer control until you have time.

[Butter]

Great, thanks.

[Sun Tzu]

I'll be getting my game in tonight.

[markprior22]

I'm out after tonight. Just not enjoying playing at all. Can't run, can't pass...can't play defense at all. I dread everytime I have to play. Sorry guys...but just not feelin it.

Nice! I like the leaderboard thing.

I got my game in early this morning. Work has been pretty hectic, but I woke up early today and things just worked out.

My game was against the Eagles, and it was by far the biggest challenge I've faced thus far. Early in the 4th quarter I fell behind 21-10 and all seemed lost. But on the ensuing kickoff, I found a crease and Bruce Ellington scored his first NFL Touchdown. Foles drove the Eagles down for a field goal, and I got the ball with 6 minutes to go, down by 5. Kaep had been wildly inaccurate all game, but he somehow pulled himself together for a fantastic drive. Bruce Miller punched it in for a TD, and Carlos Hyde plowed his way in for the 2 point conversion. I went up by 3, and then a few plays into the Eagles final drive, Foles fumbled the ball and we recovered it. Hyde scored on a very impressive 10 yard run where he broke 3+ tackles, and we effectively put the game away. The screenshot shown is from the Ellington return for a TD.

If anyone has better sliders and we can all agree to the change, I'm all for it. I don't want anyone to drop out because of that. I just used what was recommended in the Madden thread. :(

[Sun Tzu]

I'm fine with these sliders. The game is supposed to be hard. If it were easy, everyone would do it. The hard, is what makes it great...

Just played a fantastic game against the Chiefs. I had quite a bit of trouble moving the ball through the air at first, and my wideouts dropping passes left and right weren't helping the matter. I was able to hit Anquan Boldin on a post route just before halftime to cut the Chiefs lead to 9-7. In the second half, Frank Gore, finally returning from a Pre-Season injury, really caught fire. Things looked like they were all locked up until Alex Smith hit A.J. Jenkins on a 75 yard touchdown pass that put the Chiefs up by 1 (two pt conversion failed). The turning point of the game was a pick thrown by Alex Smith with 3 minutes left on 3rd down, which I returned 30 yards into Chiefs territory. Frank Gore pushed his way down into field goal range, and Phil Dawson knocked thru the game winner.

Final Score
Chiefs - 15
49ers - 17

POTG: Frank Gore - 25 att / 154 yds / 1 TD

2 of 11 human coaches played their games this week.

[Sun Tzu]

Oh for crying out loud. C'mon guys. This league won't be much fun if people just flake out. And it's not about having time. Some people have kids. Some people have long hour jobs. Some people have high maintenance Wives. I have all three, yet I've played every game.

Set aside one freaking hour every four days and play some video games, whydontcha.

[IlliniCub]

I've made every effort to play every game unfortunately didn't receive a response when I pméd this weeks opponent. Was disappointed not to play :(

[Sun Tzu]

Korme, how do you feel about setting a limit to the number of days you can go without responding to your opponent before they can play the game without you? Like, if the deadline to play is Sunday, and they haven't responded by Friday at midnight, I feel that you should be able to play the CPU.

[korme]

I just don't know if it's possible to do that, Sun. I think the way the game is setup is that if both teams are user controlled, they have to play h2h

[Terps]

I'm gonna try to get a game in tomorrow, I don't even know if I'm playing a user or the CPU, I don't think I've been on my PS4 in two weeks.

Sometimes it is hard to set that hour aside to play a game, yes with a wife, and kids, and when you work 4 p.m. until 4/5 a.m. and then sleep most of the day until it's time for work again.

[Sun Tzu]

Dude, then why join an online Madden league where other people can't play their game because of you?

[Groundhog]

Have you always needed to be a Playstation+ member to play online? I have two PSNs - an Aussie and a US account for each store - and I'm Plus with my AU only. My Madden league PSN is using my US account with no Plus which was fine until a few days ago, now it won't let me access the league without signing up. I might have to quit and then re-join with my AU account.

[IlliniCub]

I just played my game tonight...was down 24-7 at half. Took my first lead in the game 25-24 with 1:00 minute left and somehow hung on to win. WOW!

[Terps]

Dude, then why join an online Madden league where other people can't play their game because of you?

Fair enough, I posted in the Madden thread before we started the thread over here that I'd be difficult to schedule games with. I retired my owner from the league a few minutes ago, one less owner to have scheduling conflicts with.

I'm not a PS+ member.

I played against the Broncos this week, and was surprised to see they were 2-3 heading into the game. The first snap the Broncos took provided all the explanation I needed: Peyton Manning is injured.

I beat up the Broncos, mostly on the ground. Frank Gore ran for 172 yards and 2 TD's, and our defense forced 4 turnovers (2 fumbles, 2 picks). This was a pretty easy win. We stay undefeated, and head into the Bye week to rest up for a long stretch of games with no break.

[korme]

League has been advanced to Week 9. Looks like its just you and me, Sun, but I'll keep trucking. I'm having fun.

[korme]

Just finished the most epic game I've ever played. Ran over 100 plays, as I was down 20-0 after 1, so I was basically in hurry up all game.

Down 46-30 entering the fourth, we somehow break loose and score 23 unanswered, to beat Seattle in Seatlle 53-46. Boxscore coming.

[korme]

Keshawn Martin finally breaks free from the airtight defense of Richard Sherman, taking it 57 yards to the house on this rally starting touchdown.

[Sun Tzu]

Holy crap. Nice win!

I'll get my game in early Saturday or Sunday.

[Jon]

League has been advanced to Week 9. Looks like its just you and me, Sun, but I'll keep trucking. I'm having fun.

Hey....I've been playing.

My opponents in the last two games (before me beating the Colts) never responded to my requests.....fortunately I won those games or I would've thrown a fit.

[korme]

Fair enough Jon! Thanks

[Sun Tzu]

Ah, sorry guys. I wasn't able to get in my game last week. I could list a number of things as excuses, but I won't do that.

I'll get my game in this week.

[korme]

In a tie with the Chiefs at 7-2, we take a bad loss to San Diego (4-5) and now fall into wildcard contention.

[korme]

Switched my playbook to Philly playbook just to see what it's all about, and we obliterated the Chiefs to once again hold the division lead at 8-3.

[BillJasper]

Sorry I've been absent. But real life is going to force me to drop out. Hope you guys continue to have fun!

[korme]

Beat the crappy Rams 48-10. Sun Tzu, I've got your undefeated 49ers next week. Lets make it happen.

[korme]

Figured out how to set teams to auto so if there is a user v. user matchup and one guy isn't available we can get around it.

[korme]

Jon,
Looks like only you and I are left.

That being said, I'm down to continue. If you want to keep it going, we can advance at whatever pace we need as in whenever we complete a game, or keep the same strict schedule.

I'm all for more people willing to join whenever, but it was pretty disappointing to see so many commits and so many drop outs in such a short time frame.

[korme]

Our third straight loss brings the Raiders to 9-6 and in a dog fight for the wildcard.

[korme]

We headed to Denver in an early playoff game in Week 17, both teams 9-6 and the winner goes to the postseason.

Breakout rookie QB Derek Carr goes down with a herniated disk in the 1st quarter and we never stood a chance. Big time losers, 30-62 (Denver piled it on late as I kept going for it). We finish the season with 4 straight losses at 9-7 and miss the playoffs after a terrific 3/4 of the season.

[Jon]

I'm about to play my game. I'm up for advancing when we're ready with the time frames in place.

[korme]

Since you're the only active in the playoffs, send me a pm whenever you need me to advance. Once the playoffs are over, we can setup some time frame between you, me and I think Illinicub and knock out the offseason

[IlliniCub]

I completely choked in the Playoffs. Breeze tore apart my defense to the tune of a 90% completion percentage, and my players couldn't hang onto the ball.

[korme]

The league has advanced a week.

Jon's Giants are still in it.

[korme]

The league has advanced. Jon, need to know if you want to play these games. You're in the conference championship.

[Jon]

Work has been hellish this week, and I've been sick, but I've finally got to the NFC Title game.

I lost.

The game had some weird hiccups. Like not counting the 80 yard TD pass that Eli threw on the first play of the game, dbacks that come from 20 yards away to intercept passes.

I don't know....

[korme]

We'll asvance to the offseason today.

Next advance will be Sunday noon.

[korme]

We are at the re-signing stage, FA begins Sunday.

[Jon]

Looks like the league was advanced 2 weeks today. I dont have time for that right now so im out.

[korme]

I'm going to move the offseason two periods at a time so it doesn't take 3 weeks, I urge you to reconsider.
