If that's the case, then stop working on sliders until January. Tuner sets have been the bane of my existence since they started on NCAA 11. I actually stopped going on XBL in November on Madden 11 just to avoid the last patch and the destruction of a well-tuned slider set.
EA should focus tuners on things like sim stats and animation tweaking and only change the "default sliders" for the online modes.
