Running up the score vs the computer

[TheTruth1566]

I've been noticing the last couple of weeks, that owners who have been playing the computer (Buccs in particular) have been running up the score in excess of 60 and 70 points, which isn't SIM at all. So for future reference, if another owner runs up the score vs the computer, there will be disciplinary measures taken including suspentions. Suspensions to highest rated players on offense and defense. This is unacceptable.

What do you want me to do when I run it up the middle for 60 yards or continually pick the ball off in their territory / hold then to 3 and outs where I get the ball at midfield ... Just punt it from the computer's 30 yardline ???

Or we could just get active owners and not have CPUs

If you don't want to be here you don't have to be..... This wasn't just for you, it has been a trend and yes, if your up by a boatload of points, you need to figure what you are going to do to not run up the score.

Why wouldn't I want to be here ???

And honestly I for one understand about not running up scores.... Just ask Jay, in our week 3 game I returned a punt for a TD with Hester with 20 seconds left in the game.... But instead of scoring it I ran around on the goaline until time expired and stepped out of bounds

My apologies and condolences to the computer

How about not being condescending and just agree with the people who are running the league?

Probably not my place, but what's up with the Bucs? They've been on auto since basically the league started..

if someone is running up the score I think its because they just don't care. I think by now everyone should know that's not acceptable. computer or human opponent, you know what to do to prevent running up the score, just do it.

I wasn't. It was a legitimate question. If I'm running HB dives to try and run clock but instead of gaining 3 yards at a time I'm picking up 50, it makes it a bit more tough...

Especially when my defense only allows 20 total yards and it's 10 minute quarters

Point taken, carry on
