Re: To all the Acell Clock users

Accelerated clock is just about the only way to apply the kind of pressure that there is in the NFL to pick, adjust if necessary, and execute a play quickly and efficiently. Without it, you have what is a borderline ridiculous amount of time to make 20 micro-adjustments, whereas in the NFL you more than likely would have had a delay of game.

Re: To all the Acell Clock users

Search the forum. We have discussed this to death last year.

Simply put it is a necessity. To give a real life game.

For instance if you play without accellerated clock and you have a fast break offense vs. a ball control offense. Clock management is the key to winning the game for the ball control team.

With accelerated clock the clock runoff between plays is sped up but equates to the real life time that it takes to call in the plays and get the right personel in.

As a coach a ball control offense wants to get first downs and limit the oppositions chances on offense. So 10:00 minute 15 play drives mean a lot to this team. Without accelerated clock this strategy aspect is negated (or heightened if you simply run off the clock while playing 8 min quarters....but amount of plays are severely skewed). It allows the USER to play the CPU full quarters while running off the time to call in plays and personel.

Anyway if you don't understand why.....you probably don't need to. But for true football dudes it means a lot.

Re: To all the Acell Clock users

I got great results last year playing 15 minute quarters with 25 second run-off. Will be doing the same this year!!!

Last year I used 11min quarters with 15sec runoff. Gave me about 110-120 plays per game, and gives you enough time to make an adjustment or two before the snap.
