It's not an online thing, just a season that we all play using our favorite teams. We usually get together once or twice a week to play our games, as well as throw back a couple adult beverages, and talk smack while each guy plays there game. Also, when the topic title says Final rosters. Does that mean you won't be releasing any updates throughout the season at all?

I can release updates, but to be honest the ratings won't change much, unless a rookie or unknown has a break out season. As far as roster moves you guys can all sign and release guys to their new teams, so releasing an update that only has minimal amount of transactions is not that big of a deal. We may release one mid season though, not sure yet.

JSOU has said he lowered all QB spds to keep them from scrambling, but even if youre going to say "player x should be here & y should be here" wouldnt you want that to reflect reality?? Garrard isnt particularly straight-line fast; he is just big & elusive... Both Garrard & Tarvaris Jackson had worse 40 times than Losman at the combine for instance I'm just saying if youre going to suggest improvements for someone's work, at least do a little thinking so you dont criticize the things he got correct

Well said Puja

I really wish you guys would tape a game and put it on YouTube so I can see how someone is successful. You guys must be nasty at this game.

Most of us have been playing this game for a while now, we slowly tweaked it after the majority of us have improved. I remember playing this game on the dreamcast and never thought it would be where it is now. Not everyone is successful, 2 out of 8 guys made the playoffs last year, Oakland (10-6) he lost in the first round vs Cle 27-17 and myself Indy (14-2) lost to Pit in the AFC Championship 45-31. We all enjoy the challenge, if it starts to get to easy we turn it up right away, I'd rather it be to hard than easy it makes the victory's that much better. Our settings are just about perfect this year, the one we posted this year has turned human pursuit to 0, we thought about turning the CPU pursuit down 1 to 10, but are still undecided. Using the correct 40 times has really increased the CPU's speed at the LB position. We also play with the EQ on which allow the DB play to be more realistic. We also turned the injury slider down 2 clicks as well from the settings that we posted

That league sounds like a lotta fun.... wish I had friends who were into that sort of thing. Y'know, I just might crash your party in Central Cali coming from SoCal.....

Anyways, as far as updates go I just meant roster transactions and maybe minor ratings adjustments based on certain players and how they perform, if anything stands out and whatnot you know. Even minor updates like that for mostly transactions and updated depth charts and that sort of thing throughout the season would be nice.

Either way, thanks again. Great stuff.

Just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work. I was using a FNG roster from nfl2k5rosters.com, but yours seems much more thorough. Thanks again.
