Kodos · 10-27-2006, 10:44 PM

People are creating teams over in general discussion. As soon as the league is complete, I will let her rip!

Go make sure that your team gets in to the field of 32!

Are you using a one-player universe file?

Kodos · 10-27-2006, 11:51 PM

Correction. Here are my settings:

Preference Draft
Alt file? No.
X - Yes
Pers-Yes
Firing? No.
Level field? No
Wall Street

Away we go!

For the preference draft, I maxed out QB, WR, Sec. Linemen I put at 3/4, RB at 1/4, everything else min.

I maxed out starters, pass defense, experience, pass blocking. Loyalty and popularity left in the middle.

We want an offensive oreinted team that can light 'em up. We are Gamblers, after all.

Well, perhaps we should have put the QB slider at maxed and everything else at least a notch lower. Joey McElroy, our best QB, is scouted as only the 10th best in the league at 41/41. Nice ceiling there, bub.

Rod Finch looks pretty decent, and is young. But he doesn't look to have a high ceiling.

Look on the bright side--if you ever do find a promising young QB, he'll have plenty of classy veterans to teach him the ropes.

Stay classy Las Vegas.

For some reason, that doesn't sound right.

Freakin' aliens and their short attention spans.

Kodos · 10-30-2006, 10:10 PM

Yep. Basically it comes down to the fact that I can't write a straight dynasty. It just won't hold my attention. Basically, I should finish the Bill Gates Challenge and retire from the dynasty business.

Well, except for if I decide to resurrect the paint chip eating dynasty.

Kodos, I was thinking: could you make the "frfoot.*" files to create this universe available? I really liked the names of the teams. It would be a nice alternative for playing in a fictional universe.

10-27-2006, 11:56 PM	#5
Kodos Resident Alien Join Date: Jun 2001	For the preference draft, I maxed out QB, WR, Sec. Linemen I put at 3/4, RB at 1/4, everything else min. I maxed out starters, pass defense, experience, pass blocking. Loyalty and popularity left in the middle. We want an offensive oreinted team that can light 'em up. We are Gamblers, after all.

10-28-2006, 12:12 AM	#8
Kodos Resident Alien Join Date: Jun 2001	Well, perhaps we should have put the QB slider at maxed and everything else at least a notch lower. Joey McElroy, our best QB, is scouted as only the 10th best in the league at 41/41. Nice ceiling there, bub.
