Operation Sports Forums - View Single Post - NCAA Football Simulation Dynasty (Take 2)

It's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack

Rosters completed, research done, and everything is ready to go. This dynasty will be very similar to the last one, with in-depth coverage, storylines and all the other goodies it came with.

I will be controlling 12 teams: Alabama, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Texas, USC, Virginia Tech and West Virginia. This is just for discipline purposes and depth chart management. I will not be affecting recruiting of any sort or affecting any game outcomes.

Here are some new wrinkles to watch out for in Take 2:

1) More in-depth coverage

I will be trying to make the sim storylines more realistic and fun to follow, I might even throw in some analysis columns and such. Just to keep things interesting.

2) Junior College players

Doing research, I discovered a lot of junior college transfers that became starters for teams in 2008 and 2009. I decided that since they were important to their respective teams (and the ensuing draft classes), I have included many junior college players. So players like LeGarrette Blount, Terrance Cody, etc. will not be in depth charts for the 2007 season but will be available next season when the rosters reset.

3) More realistic outcomes/draft classes

One of the biggest reasons why I stalled the last thread was because I was very disappointed in how the first season turned out and I was VERY disappointed with the draft class it produced. I have spent an inordinate amount of time changing ratings, getting rid of non-important players and other items to make sure the teams perform the way they did in 2007, 2008 and beyond. Also, I am hoping the draft classes turn out a little more realistic. Really, my hope is that players that actually got drafted in real life do go to the Madden sim.

...and last but not least...

4) HTML

Yes folks, I have learned how to create simple tables in HTML code. I want this thread to be much more readable, so I finally put forth the effort to learn and create templates for the Top 25, game of the week reports, etc. It should make things much easier to follow and pretty to look at

I will be starting shortly. Hope you enjoy this! Thanks so much for the patience!

Note to moderators: Please DO NOT delete my past threads. I need the old information for this thread. Thanks!!!
