FOFC Madden 2004 (PS2) Tournament sign up - Page 2

Eaglesfan27 · 10-01-2003, 12:01 AM

I lost my connection with Kodos leading 24-0, or least I presume it was me, as kodos was able to keep playing against comp.

Eaglesfan27 · 10-01-2003, 01:18 AM

I wanted to thank Kodos for a really fun couple of games online. I lost the first game 24-0 when we lost connection with about a minute left. We did random draw and Kodos got my beloved Eagles which was kind of ironic, and I had Buffalo. Kodos played a great game. The second game was a little bit closer 28-21, he won with Washington beating the Bears.

I had pretty much given up on online gaming a year ago with all of the people who pulled plugs (which is why I was so worried that I would be perceived as the plug puller in our first game) and people who whined or otherwise ranted. So many people do cheap things that ruin the online experience, so this was just such a refreshing change. This was the most fun I've had in an online game in a long long time. Thanks for being a gracious winner Kodos.

Kodos · 10-01-2003, 01:36 AM

No problem, Eaglesfan27! It was fun playing you too. Sorry I got your Eagles, but ... at least they won!

We'll definitely have to play again. You're on my EA messenger now.

Kodos · 10-01-2003, 12:31 PM

Anyone else get to play their games?

primelord · 10-01-2003, 01:19 PM

Wes I will not be able to play tongiht, but I should be available on Thursday night if you are.

BigDPW · 10-01-2003, 06:59 PM

Kodos... I should be available later tonight... If my wife doesn't need the internet for her work... And if tonight doesn't work out we can plan on tomorrow night...

Just curious how you choose random teams online... Is it the same as vs. the CPU I have never tried it...

Kodos · 10-01-2003, 07:46 PM

We can try for tonight, but I have already scheduled a game vs. Noop at 10 CST. Maybe around 10:45?

To select random teams, just hit your lower right shoulder button at the team selection screen.

Celeval · 10-01-2003, 08:03 PM

Sweet! The bye is probably the only way I'll get to the second round.

Kevin

BigDPW · 10-01-2003, 09:28 PM

Kodos,

I may be able to play before your game if you would like but 11:45 EST is a little late for me... I might could play in the am before going to clinic tomorrow afternoon but that is up to you... What times would work for you tomorrow??? best for me would probably be 6-7:30 EST and then again 10:00-11:00 EST... Email me or PM me if you wanna play today or tomorrow... I will be out of town after that until Sunday evening...

Derek

Kodos · 10-01-2003, 09:59 PM

Maybe tomorrow night around 9 or 10 CST?

BigDPW · 10-02-2003, 04:48 PM

Kodos... I will be available from 9:00 EST until... Let me know what time works best for you... If you wanna play before 8:00 EST I can do that too but it is all good... I may be on Madden this afternoon for awhile if you wanna look for me... We can plan on meeting at 10:00 EST on AIM if we don't set any other time up between now and then since that is the most recent time indication you gave here on the board...

I still don't have a router so I have to un hook the CPU to play online with the PS2... That is why I prefer to meet on AIM... So I don't sit on Madden all night...

primelord · 10-02-2003, 04:58 PM

I don't want to leave Wes out of the picture, but if he doesn't respond soon would it make sense to just switch him and Celeval and then he can play the winner in the 2nd round?

BigDPW · 10-02-2003, 05:20 PM

I would say go ahead and play Celeval if you want Prime... That makes perfect sense to me... Unless you want Kodos to make the decision... If anything you just get a good warm up game if the game doesn't count anyway...

To me this is more about games against straight up opponents than the tourney anyway... In fact I was a bit bummed when I got a bye b/c that means potentially one fewer game for me....

Kodos · 10-02-2003, 05:25 PM

Yeah, go ahead and play Celeval. I don't know where Wes is. AWOL I guess.

BigDPW, I am still up for 9 CST if you like. We can meet on AIM beforehand if you like, but I will be on Madden within 5 minutes of our appointed time - I promise.

Kodos... 10 CST (9 EST) will work better for me my wife wants me from 8-9 EST to help her with some work she has to do... is 10 CST ok with you... You are in my buddy list so we can just meet at 10 CST online (madden) and skip the AIM stuff...

Kodos · 10-02-2003, 05:33 PM

10 CST works fine for me. But 10 CST = 11 EST, not 9 EST.

BigDPW · 10-02-2003, 05:33 PM

10 CST it is... Hope I get a good Random team (at least someone I know a little about...)

Kodos · 10-03-2003, 10:41 AM

Congrats to BigDPW for advancing to the finals. Despite the fact that I arguably drew better teams randomly each time, BigDPW outplayed me most of the time, and captured the series by winning the first and third games. Good luck in the finals! Time for me to work on my run game some more...

BigDPW · 10-03-2003, 05:53 PM

Great games Kodos... I am not so sure I out played you as much as you said but thanks for the compliment.

I will be out of town until late Sunday and I wanted whoever I will need to play in the finals to know that in case the other bracket moves quickly over the weekend.

I listed all of you guys on my EA Messanger so I will be looking for all of you when I am online in hopes of playing some more FOFC competition... Seems my best games are always against u guys...

BigDPW · 10-05-2003, 05:44 PM

I am up for some games tonight if anyone wants to play... That can be NCAA or MADDEN...

Doesn't look like the other side of the bracket has gotten too far while I was gone... You guys just let me know when you wanna play...

primelord · 10-05-2003, 06:41 PM

I am up for playing some tonight after the Sunday night football game.

Noop · 10-05-2003, 06:43 PM

What about setting up a NCAA tourney?? But I got Florida State

On that note when Flordia St. plays Miami are you rooting for your brother or Florida St.?

primelord · 10-06-2003, 01:21 PM

So has everyone on my side of the bracket bowed out?

Kodos · 10-06-2003, 01:27 PM

So has everyone on my side of the bracket bowed out?

Inconcievable! These tournaments always go off without a hitch.

We'll give Wes and Celeval until the end of today to say they are in and set up a game with you. Otherwise, you are in the championship round with BigDPW starting tomorrow.

TargetPractice6 · 10-06-2003, 04:36 PM

If you do another tournament, I'll play.

Kodos · 10-06-2003, 04:40 PM

Targetpractice - Do you want to play primelord in this tournament. It looks like Celeval and Wes Huett are awol.

TargetPractice6 · 10-06-2003, 04:49 PM

Sure, I don't have much to do tonight.

primelord · 10-06-2003, 04:51 PM

I should be available after the Monday night game.

TargetPractice6 · 10-06-2003, 05:14 PM

That's pretty late here in the eastern time zone... Maybe we could play tomorrow?

That should be fine.

Kodos · 10-08-2003, 01:44 PM

Any news here?

Celeval · 10-08-2003, 02:06 PM

Doh, that's what happens when I miss the thread for a while. I'm good to play late tonight, or next Tuesday (leaving town for a few days).

Kevin

primelord · 10-08-2003, 02:07 PM

I just want to play someone! Anyone!

Celeval I should be able to play around 11 CST tonight if you are available.

primelord · 10-08-2003, 10:59 PM

Celeval I am around if you want to play

Kodos · 10-10-2003, 12:55 PM

Okay, I officially say that primelord is in the final now. Apparently nobody on his side is available to play the games. Nice show, primelord!

First game is BigDPW at primelord. Good luck!

BigDPW · 10-10-2003, 06:33 PM

I may have time to play tonight if you want Prime... I would like to get this done soon because during the week I cannot play all that late into the night... And is seems you prefer to play after 11pm CST which is way past too late for me here in the Eastern Time Zone...

Send me a PM or pop me an email... I may be on playing a old buddy tonight so look for me online as well...

primelord · 10-10-2003, 07:06 PM

That should be fine. It probably won't be until around 11 or so, but I will look for ya then.

TargetPractice6 · 10-10-2003, 07:38 PM

Yeah, BigDPW that's the reason I haven't been able to play. I just can't play Madden at midnight during the week.

BigDPW · 10-10-2003, 08:10 PM

Prime... I may be able to play as late as 11pm CST but I highly doubt it... I may have about 3 nights a month that I have the luxury of staying up that late... Let me know if there is some time we can play earlier this weekend...

It will especially be hard to play all three games on a night after 11pm CST... That will put us finishing up around 2-2:30am EST... Way too late considering I have work to get done around the house and for school everyday this weekend and the weekend is really the only time I ever get to sleep comfortably without being berated by the alarm just after I get to sleep!!!

I hope we can find time to play soon... Let me know...

TargetPractice6 · 10-10-2003, 10:37 PM

Hey primelord (I see you online), if you want to play I'm game.

Kodos · 10-14-2003, 12:53 PM

Bump -- because it's what the people want!

BigDPW · 10-14-2003, 10:08 PM

Prime - I am still looking forward to playing sometime... Just let me know a time that is before 10:30 pm EST... I will be out of town Thusday and Friday for an interview but I will be back this weekend...

BigDPW · 10-18-2003, 09:41 AM

Prime...

I'm Still up to settle this tourney... I can probably play anytime this weekend as long as it is not too late here (EST)... Let me know...

If anyone else besides primelord wants to play some Madden/NCAA let me know...

Kodos · 10-20-2003, 01:22 PM

Well, me and BigDPW hooked up over the weekend, with his Chiefs narrowly edging my Seahawks on a botched field goal attempt as time expired that should have been a gimme. I feel like Olindo Mare...

I think it is safe to say we shouldn't try another incarnation of the FML this season. It's just too hard to get everyone's schedules to mesh.

BigDPW · 10-21-2003, 11:14 AM

Great game this weekend Kodos... You had me beat but the FG miss made all the difference...

I am still up for playing Primelord sometime if you want to finish the tourney... I haven't seen him posting much lately so I figure he is pretty busy...
