leagueManager Aims to Please Madden 11 Online Franchise Users

[ssx95351]

I can't even tell you guys how awesome that tool is. Derek has done an amazing job and what I also really appreciate is that he answers just about all questions asked and is always willing to help out. Thanks to him I was able to grab the stats and put them on my league site ( http://www.2kolf.com/Full_Stats_2011_Season3.html ) has full player stats and team stats, which makes my site truly complete! Thanks Derek!!! =)

I'm always curious as to whether these indie tools motivate developers to "one-up" the free competition, or if it just motivates them to not put as much effort in because "someone else will do it for free after the fact". Seems to change from sport to sport. Considering franchise is pretty much all I play, I hope for the former.

I'm really interested in this... I just need to get more familiar with salary cap. I've never played with a salary cap in online franchise... Not sure how it would work if not everybody has a computer.

My brother and I tried an Online Franchise in Madden 10, got about 8 weeks, and then abandoned it. Same thing happened in Madden 11, which makes sense, since it's the SAME online franchise. But having looked at this tool, both of us are now considering starting one up again.

I don't care how pretty the site is - I want it work smoothly and provide me with a lot of features, and Derek's site does both better than EA's. Okay, so the stat layouts could be a bit easier to sort and read, but I was AMAZED when I started playing with salary cap. Not only can you set the cap, but it has a universal editor that assigns a simple 1-36 value for everyone in the league, and even adjusts their value relative to position (for example, and 84 OVR QB has a higher salary than an 84 OVR RG). You can also manually edit all the salaries, and even have it recalculate each year!

What this site gets that EA totally missed is that there was no point to having something that was essentially a "hardcore" mode without any of the "hardcore" functionality. It isn't much fun stockpiling talent and beating up on the league if you're assembling superteams that couldn't exist in real life.

Don't know how well it synchs with everything I see in the game, but I'm interested to try it out.

I think leagueManager was a total success. Madden 11 is not the greatest game by a long shot but I'm in a sim 32 man football league with a waiting list and it's nice to see all that stuff done for you. I do write -ups for each game and it's nice to see all that stats and to compare it to other players/teams. If there is a problem or glitch email the creator and he is usually very quick to respond. I love great service. Keep up the good work Derek Adams!!
