new/re-booted FBCB2 league starting

For anyone interested in playing in a multi-player online FBCB2 college basketball league, the NCAA53 folks are re-booting things and starting a new league. It's set with this year's teams & conferences as a starting point. Head over to the NCAA53 forum to get more details if interested:

That's how I feel. I want Nova and Fairfield, or some other odd challenge (Providence?). But time is hard, and whatever time I do have typically gets taken by JBL.

Would have been the 3rd team who tried to grab 'Nova. For what it's worth, we fire up on Tuesday

Let's say I was entertaining the (foolish) idea that I wanted to get back into this. How do I go about resurrecting my FBCB License from an old and gone computer?

Muns might know the answer here. Pretty sure Brian isn't the answer here. Mine is far down in my gmail so I just check for FBCB.

I need to correct one thing and I keep forgetting. Stick finger on one team name. But I should have a dummy set if anyone wants up to date Conferences and I set prestige off Sagarin rankings a week ago.

Contact Scott Vibert at Grey Dog - he should be able to help you out. There’s also this form you can fill out:

http://www.elicense.com/support-form.aspx

When my laptop got stolen last year he got me fixed up with a replacement eLicense for my FBCB2 and FBB installs.

Maybe it explains why Im not very good but most of the time I spend less than 10 minutes a week on my team. Recruiting season takes 30 minutes but other than that's it's a pretty minimal investment

Just to add a little more fuel to this, looks like UCSB is the 2nd highest prestige team in the Big West and appear to have at least one of the top-3 rosters in there. There's some talent to work with and a pretty good shot at getting into the NCAA Tournament right away...

Request in to resurrect my elicense. Going to tackle UCSB, Georgia Tech, and a couple of nobodies in Prairie View A&M and Youngstown State (because who doesn't want to be a penguin?!?).

There are so many good reasons to take UCSB:
  • Human opponent in Hawai'i.
  • I mean, the names by themselves are pretty badass:
  • Freshman Sid Begin.
  • Shooting guard Dick Sack.
  • Head Coach Steven King.

Honestly, I'm not even sure I would change King's ratings, so I might just leave him the Head Coach. Whooo boy, talk about a lack of defense though. This team couldn't guard the Perkins School for the Blind.

This is perhaps the best player name I've ever seen in FBCB2...

And he's a freshman at a small school. I get him for four years.

You never sat in the blue blood chair. There were years when he had 30 players in the top 100 listing him as "the chosen one"

Only when I had one scholarship available. When I had 3-4 it was usually everyone else

The game knows when to tease you, doesn't it.

Any chance you could upload the file with updated conferences? (And remind me how to use.) March Madness has me eager to pick game back up!
