The Pyramid - Allow high-prestige teams to be rebuilt as 1-star teambuilder teams?

Kodos · 12-09-2013, 08:50 AM

Cartman had the following objection to using teambuildered versions of high-prestige teams. Should we allow high-prestige teams to be recreated?

Because it seems that there is still a hidden prestige rating that allows that team to easily get back to a high star level. If you look at the current NCAA league, Rice and USC have had similar records over the past few seasons, but USC is a 6 star team while Rice is 4 star. So my preference would be to limit it to the list of teams.

And I'm in, and I'd claim Texas State.

Voted no. Since to concept is to take a sorry team and try to build them up, it seems to short circuit the process a bit by using a high-prestige team with a gutted roster. In theory it shouldn't matter, but it appears there is some sort of hidden rating for the teams. I think we should stick to making our choices from the list of teams that Kodos spelled out.

I wonder if we could get around the issue by creating CU's team as "C1emson" instead of "Clemson".

Im not going to be a b1tch about ti and refuse to play unless I can have Clemson...but Id really like to have them if possible.

Lord knows I suffered enough with the FAU team I inherited with no players above 50 OVR...

Lol whatever is decided is fine.
Id rather not have a fake Clemson..to me the cool part would be to see the stadium etc.

I'm not sure I'm convinced that some teams have a hidden prestige rating. It could be that the 2 national championships that USC has won in the dynasty have earned them the 2 extra stars. I'd have to double check, but I think I have 5-star prestige and my only big accomplishment is winning a BCS bowl game a couple of seasons ago. I can't imagine that Duke has any hidden modifiers in a football game.

I'm tired and need to go to bed. As proof, I meant to vote yes and screwed it up. Nighty-night.
