how long game take?

trying to decide on best quarter length - goal is to have somewhat realistic stats, but be able to get a game played in 30-45 minute time frame?

what quarter length should I use for dynasty? 6 min? 7 min? more?

and any idea how long full game takes on each of those lengths?

can you change quarter lengths mid-year? or do you have to wait til end of season? or are you stuck with what you pick at the start?

Depends on your style of offense a little bit. I lean toward the run and i am on 6 minute quarters. Each week with recruiting takes me about 50-60 minutes. If you pass more you would probably want to go to 5 minutes.

You can change the quarter length every week until you get it to where you like it.

is there an accellerated clock? and if so, what do you set it for?

Re: how long game take?

There isn't an accelerated clock in the true sense of the meaning. You can set the tempo to aggressive, balanced, or conservative. I usually leave it on balanced. I don't know the exact effects of it as I don't pay much attention to it. I do switch to conservative when I want to run clock like late in the 4th to end the game. It runs the play clock down to like 12 or 14 not sure of the exact number.
