Official OS 30 Team Shared Franchise: Is It Possible?

[Mike Lowe]

Since online franchise is a bit limited compared to offline franchise, is it possible to do the following, in the hopes of starting up an Official OS 30 Team Shared Franchise:

• Create a 30 team franchise of all user teams
• Using "share play" (or whatever it's called) to play H2H games between all members (would need to share saved league file somewhere in between each game)
• Handle FA signings, the draft, and the like on an online forum (since in-game would be too tricky)
• Can actually have a real offseason instead of just starting over like in traditional online franchises
• Could even roll the season over into next year's game

Admittedly, this would take some major ambition to share all of these games between 30 different people, but if we setup an OFFICIAL OS LEAGUE, I bet we could find 30 committed members. The one advantage to recruiting for a league this time of year, is anyone who shows interest this late into the season is likely to be committed.



Thoughts? Let's discuss the possibilities? It might even be fun to setup a fictional franchise with a fantasy draft or something like that.

Anyone? No interest? Dead horse?

Yes, I am very interested in this. I do not know all the particulars of which you speak, however. I would think this could be done other ways than share play, if the two of us or others would play some vs cpu - sim some - and some head-to-head. I am willing to commit to all 2,430 at a decent pace and continue this from year-to-year.

PM and let me know what we can do.

thanks

Let's keep recruiting. If we can find 30 guys this time of year, odds are they'll be committed.

Share play, if I'm understanding it correctly, would allow for us to play H2H games without living together ha.

I believe the one setback is only be able to play one game at a time. We could create time slots and even place guys regionally by time zone to help w that.

I saw it. I think we should continue to recruit for now. For starters, we might find a good base for something like this in the Online Franchise I am starting. Check the online section for info on that, and if you'd like to join, copy and paste the info from the first post and I can add you ASAP.

Elton, to elaborate, I want to avoid using AI teams for to the game's inability to properly use SPs to avoid the amount of CG/SO that appear, regardless of sliders.

I'd love to try this with more people on board.
