Interested in Joining

Disturbed · 08-24-2009, 01:20 PM

I am interested in joining.

From what I can tell on the owners page the Dolphins are open, if so I will take them if you will have me.

Glad to see you are interested. I could be wrong but I don't think the owners page is in a good an updated shape. I think last I saw someone currently runs the Dolphins.

My suggestion would be to look at this page: Text Sports Network

Anyone who hasn't uploaded this month are highlighted and I would guess are available.

Drop a PM to Tasan and he can get you squared away!

Disturbed · 08-24-2009, 01:27 PM

Thanks!

TheMeat · 08-24-2009, 02:09 PM

Hurray! It's great to see anyone joining up, but especially someone I know to be an active and interesting owner from the PFL. You've joined up just in time to watch whichever team you pick suck balls for the season but next year you can use all that juicy cap room to start building your dream team! Feel free to PM me anytime if you have any questions my friend

sgallo3 · 08-26-2009, 05:28 PM

i'm also interested in taking over a team in this league. I have had a few home leagues with some buddies but never anything online. I kinda just assumed all the leagues stayed full. Maybe I can get accepted into this league and shake things up a bit

Tasan · 08-26-2009, 06:30 PM

You'll have a PM in just a few minutes!

sgallo3 · 08-26-2009, 08:40 PM

just got back from my fantasy draft

Tasan · 08-26-2009, 08:52 PM

Everyone welcome sgallo3 as the new owner of the Chargers!

Alan T · 08-26-2009, 09:06 PM

Welcome!

TheMeat · 08-26-2009, 09:24 PM

Welcome sgallo!

sgallo3 · 08-26-2009, 09:59 PM

thanks guys! does anyone know what the commissioner's settings are as far as coach resetting depth chart and game plan during season?

Sef0r · 08-26-2009, 10:23 PM

All AI assistance is turned off when you own a team.

sgallo3 · 08-26-2009, 10:25 PM

sweet, was just makin sure i wasn't doin gameplan adjustments for nothing. so i wont even have the people i sign on this file will I? doesn't he just sim the whole season in one day?

You are pretty much screwed for this season, next season is on Monday

Anyways, if you are just signing people now for regular season the game will auto fill the depth chart but at least they will use your gameplan.

sgallo3 · 08-26-2009, 10:48 PM

k... well this season was down the crapper anyway cuz i missed free agency. we'll consider this an adjustment year and hopefully by season 3 we'll be firing on all cylinders

Emiliano · 08-29-2009, 12:52 AM

You guys got me: I'll give it a try. Can I have the Raiders? I see the last export is June 1st... And the team has 3 punters!

This is gonna be fun.

Tasan · 08-29-2009, 01:10 AM

No problem! I'll have you a PM sometime tomorrow with all the info, OK?

Emiliano · 08-29-2009, 01:17 AM

Julio Riddols · 08-29-2009, 02:39 AM

Shit yeah.. Pile em in, lets fill this thing back up.

DevilRay · 08-30-2009, 03:09 AM

I would like to join, as well. I'm interested in taking over the Buffalo Bills, if they're still available.

Thanks.

TheMeat · 08-30-2009, 04:22 AM

Right on! that's what I like to see.

Tasan · 08-30-2009, 01:33 PM

OK, both of the new owners have their intro PMs. Welcome aboard guys!

Alan T · 08-30-2009, 01:38 PM

Welcome guys!

Tasan · 08-30-2009, 02:25 PM

On this note, we only have 6 teams open. We had 24 owners participate in at least one stage last season, and we've added 2 more owners since the season's end. The open teams are:

Dallas
Denver
Green Bay
Kansas City
Minnesota
St. Louis

On another note, we still have 7 original owners. A big thanks to these guys for sticking around the last 13 seasons:

Ben (of course)
Julio Riddols
Quiksand
Subby
Suicane
wade moore
Tasan (yeah, that would be me)

B i g thanks guys!

TheMeat · 08-30-2009, 03:52 PM

Suicane still lives in Philly? I wondered if it had been taken over by someone when they blowed up, good to see that was not the case.

Emiliano · 08-30-2009, 04:02 PM

Thanks guys! I'm all set-up, about to export.

Sef0r · 08-30-2009, 05:50 PM

There was some resistance to changing to this new format (me included) but now I think this is a really fun format. I think we may get to a stage where it will be hard for people to find openings.

I love this league so much that my mind kind of spaces out in my two "slow-paced" FOF leagues at times. Same thing happened for me in OOTP. This format is awesome in any sports sim. I think at this point the only way I can really enjoy sports simulations is through the instant gratification of fast-paced multiplayer leagues.

Most of the hard recruiting work has been done by others, but thanks! I'm mainly pointing everyone to the files and giving out passwords.

Ben E Lou · 08-31-2009, 07:14 AM

My list has 8 open, but mine was a little more strict than Tasan's: I looked at the team rosters right after TC (i.e. the last stage before the AI would fill the rosters). I marked the teams that had less than 5 players under contract at that point as abandoned. Please check this list and let me know what's incorrect:

FOWL Owner/Team List

Tasan · 08-31-2009, 08:19 AM

The Jets should be owned by RedKingGold, but that looks a little shaky right now. He exported once last year, but not at a roster stage. It looks like the other one we had different was Tennessee, but RPI-fan exported for the stage last night at least, so I'd say he's around, if sporadically.

Ben E Lou · 08-31-2009, 02:22 PM

OK. I made contact with RKG, he's in. And given that RPI-Fan exported last night, he's in, too. Owner list updated once again.

CleBrownsfan · 09-01-2009, 10:48 AM

Okay - I'm going to take the plunge! I have never played in a multi player FOF league but after enjoying myself a lot in FOOLX I'm going to give it a shot. Looks the the Packers need to re-tool their team so I would love to step up to the challenge. I need to d/l FOF again

TheMeat · 09-01-2009, 11:32 AM

Good to hear BrownsFan!

Tasan · 09-01-2009, 12:24 PM

You have a PM CleBrownsfan!

5 left people, get 'em while they're hot!

Bako · 09-02-2009, 11:20 PM

Hey guys I am interested in joining also. If the Dallas Cowboys are still available I will take them.

On a side note......this site is blocked from my work. Anyone have any tips to get around that so I can access the site from work?

Tasan · 09-03-2009, 02:19 AM

You've got a PM Bako, welcome aboard!

Julio Riddols · 09-03-2009, 02:29 AM

Dude... My mental mouth is watering over the craziness that will ensue once this league re-fills. Holy mophandles..

TheMeat · 09-03-2009, 03:39 AM

Ya, I'm expecting some real hectic shite to go down with all the exports that have been uploaded for this stage.

Sef0r · 09-03-2009, 04:11 AM

Boy, this stage is going to be interesting.

At a guess that WR and CB rated high high high will each get about 30 mil a season. That is all

Bako · 09-03-2009, 09:10 AM

Should have my first file up tonight. I have about 160 mill to spend so this should be fun.

While downloading the league files, this file is no longer active 404 Not Found , so when I click on the players in the game it says I am "unable to lead past season data". Hoping to get that and I should be good to go.

cthomer5000 · 09-03-2009, 08:40 PM

Yeah, this is really interesting 'second league' ... and I assume that's what it is for most people. The completely different speed and strategies make it really interesting. And the fact that you can turn around a franchise that has 0 players in as few as 2-3 weeks is pretty great.

Sef0r · 09-03-2009, 09:00 PM

This is my 1st league but now shares equal time with the other one I am in, the PFL.

Yeah, this is pretty much my favorite FOF league and is right behind the FOOL leagues (ootp fast sim league version of FOWL) for the main ones I spend the most time playing around with.
