However I never use it it when playing in my leisure unless I'm using much longer quarters, like 10 min+ because it cuts the game entirely too short, imo. With the ladders having 6 min quarters it would seem to drastically reduce the time of the games and make a two score lead at the half, 9+ points, a game where the leader could just try to run out as much clock as possible and forcing the player behind to pass way more to conserve it.

Secondly, the random team selection, I'm trying to understand how that works exactly. I almost always play exclusively with the Redskins so under what circumstances would I be required to use a random team?
Great input and question.

First for the timeframe of games, please let me know what you think the rules should be for ladders and we will run a community poll to see what everyone thinks about it. If it's supported by the community, we will change

Also, the random team selection is only for matches were the creator selects "Use Random Team" A Lot of people use this because they are scared to play 49ers all the time, but you can create matches and select do not use random teams and use whoever you want.

Some of the posts in this thread are embarassing. This isn't my way to play the game but I appreciate the effort to organize folks.

A poll sounds cool, personally I play 7 min quarters with NO accelerated clock in my circle but my main point is that I don't see the need for an accelerated clock in the ladder when quarters are only 6 min.

As far as the random team goes so you are saying that as long as I don't accept a created challenge with that option selected or create one myself, I should be good, cool. Also to avoid the issue you mentioned about people wanting avoid certain teams, maybe another option could be added or random set to no could include what team a person will be using upfront. That way anyone that plans on using the 49ers or whoever would have to disclose that when creating a challenge.

Yeah, but you can still use then in tournaments and you can create or only accept matches were you can use them so it will not change anything as you can still use them

Yeah I signed up for Madden on GB time the ladder came out.

Got cheesed to death in my first game and disbanded my team immediately.

What kids do to win is what's killing GB. and also when they know that there are no repercussions for their actions
