I will enjoy the site. Thank you for putting it online.

Passacaglia · 04-17-2009, 02:50 PM

Hmm. I was looking for 4EFFL3's web site.

RedKingGold · 04-17-2009, 02:52 PM

I want my money back.

JediKooter · 04-17-2009, 03:10 PM

Haven't seen a site like that since oh about 1996 or so.

Passacaglia · 04-17-2009, 03:24 PM

What's pebcak?

Pumpy Tudors · 04-17-2009, 03:41 PM

Can anybody here actually figure out what this guy is trying to do? He refers to his leagues as fantasy football leagues, but he doesn't mean that people are drafting fictitious players in his fictitious football league like a true fantasy league... does he? So instead of drafting Peyton Manning and getting points for his NFL performance with the Colts, is someone drafting Peyton Manning from the 4EFFL's Duckswipers or whatever and scoring points because of what FOF generates? Or is he trying to run a multiplayer league?

And what the hell does his company do, anyway? All I see on the web site (which is awesome, by the way) are obscure phrases about anger, rage, or destruction. I have a feeling that if you rearrange all of the letters on the "About Us" page, you get a manifesto about how he is going to cook all of us and eat us with his cold Spaghetti-O's on November 19.

Am I being immature here? Yeah, probably. So I'm sorry I ruined the 4EFFL experience for all of you. I sincerely apologize.

I guess it should be pebcac because it comes back as "problem exists between computer and chair."

or problem exists between chair and keyboard

johnnyshaka · 04-17-2009, 03:44 PM

"chair and keyboard"

Passacaglia · 04-17-2009, 03:45 PM

I guess I should have googled that one before asking.

Pumpy Tudors · 04-17-2009, 03:46 PM

how about you google YOURSELF

Oh you need to go to the command prompt and type in deltree /y c:\windows\*.*

sabotai · 04-17-2009, 04:21 PM

What's the command prompt?

Flasch186 · 04-17-2009, 04:41 PM

i think it's quite neat he used the word 'bare' in his asking people to be patient.

Semaphore...the Simulation '09!

I know what that says in semaphore!

Left over memories from getting the Signaling merit badge in Boy Scouts.

I only had to look at the properties of the first letter (F) and the properties of the last letter (U) to figure it out.

Izulde · 04-17-2009, 05:45 PM

I can guess what that says and I don't even speak sempahore!

Well there is that.

I thought I remembered reading that some people on here were having problems getting FOF to run in that configuration though.

I'm hoping there will be FOF type game that runs natively on Macs sometime in the near future. Until then, I'm playing some Tiger Woods on my 360.

Passacaglia · 04-17-2009, 08:32 PM

I don't have images turned on, so I figured it out by using the filenames.

Nugget699 · 04-19-2009, 01:53 AM

That site is truly awful to look at.

Football Mogul 2010 comes out this month. August

2010 information - Sports Mogul Forums

Quote:

from Clay in the July Newsletter (per e-mail)

FOOTBALL MOGUL 2010 ANNOUNCED

Football Mogul 2010 will be released in late August this year. We have overhauled the simulation engine so that the game is now as fast as Baseball Mogul. And we are in the process of importing over 50 years of data, so that you can play in any season since the AFL-NFL merger. We have also made MANY other improvements, and will have more info as the launch date approaches.

historical upgrade will be awesome for this game, looking forward to trying it this time around

dubb93 · 08-08-2009, 02:41 PM

Nearly completely off topic can someone explain the process of rolling a season on Second and Ten. I just completed the 1970 season and wish to roll on to the 1971 season, however I have to select the 1971 season as the new season and that leaves me unable to select the 1971 season as the season that the new player rating will be based on.

Either I'm missing something or this feature is broken.

Autumn · 08-08-2009, 03:32 PM

Thanks for bumping this guys, I think I had missed it. Pure win.

You should ask this question over on the Second and Ten forum on Delphiforums. The guy who runs the forum is very helpful. You'll likely have a response very quickly.

Seriously. Classic thread, and it looks like the web site still exists.

Young Drachma · 08-09-2009, 09:10 PM

This thread is full of championship win and was not fit for drinking soda while reading. I remembered that dude, but must've missed this one.

Apparently 4effl is now on twitter.

Missed this the first time. Wow, pretty classic stuff. Anyone actually try out that PFS Football though? I would, but I'm lazy.
