    I'm calmer when we are mic'd up like last time. You'll have to ignore me right after, I'm a very sore loser. Good game.

    Hopefully I can sneak into the 6 seed but if not, good luck and carry the AFC North flag and hopefully you don't get simmed out this year

  9. Damn I may end up making the playoffs after all. Just have to beat the Panthers on the road Week 17 and the Raiders next week to finish 11-5. Need the Colts to drop a game, or two.
     
  10. i am going to have a top 5 pick. Maybe first overall.

    Anyone looking to move up?

    Yeah I may trade my first and 2nd round picks and just stock pile on 3rd and 4th picks- my later picks were just as good so fuck it, let the computer pick and pray to get a superstar

    Beat the Bulls this morning without Tom Brady or Montee Ball. Brady is out for the rest of the regular season (should be back by the first game of the playoffs) and Ball just has a high ankle sprain. Need those guys back to have a chance in the playoffs obviously. Need one win against the Jets or Cheese-dick (49ers) to get at least one home playoff game.

    Also, offered contracts to Browner and a back-up LB and they both rejected and played hard to get. I decided I didn't want to re-sign them anyways and then a week later they said they accepted the contract. Idk if that was my comp offering again? Or a glitch? Its fine by me but I figured I would ask.

    I'd just assume it was a glitch- I'm amazed at how bad some parts of the game are. The game stats are horribly wrong most of the time- the "last week stats" are never close to right, they might always be 0....and the commentators often get the two teams mixed up when talking about one doing good / other bad.

    never heard of that. i assume that if it doesn't say "resigned" on the re-sign players screen after I give them an offer then I have to keep negotiating the following week

    Oh, we're talking about draft picks today?

    Can't wait to see how many 1sts RW has this year. It's interesting to me that despite him being the most hated member of the league, I received no support for my draft reform.

    Yes - however you can follow up immediately with a better offer in the same week and continue increasing it until they sign. No need to advance to offer a better deal

    That's what my assumption was

    Didn't know this. Good to know.

    I don't know...it might be that I just re-sent the same offer the following week after they rejected and then they decided to accept. I don't think thats the case though. Feel like it could be a glitch. Not to worry though because the contracts they accepted were ones that I wanted them to accept to begin with.

    I don't know the draft reform you proposed but how in the world does the RW have a bunch of 1st round draft picks? And be the best overall team by far?

    Because, like his Vernon Davis cheese play, it's something that has to be legislated out. The CPU can be taken advantage of in trades just as easily as in games.

    Would be such an easy remedy, but it met strong opposition from season 1 users.

    Yeah we only allow one cpu trade in tmbsl league now and only one offseason trade and has to be picks for picks. We should def do this for next years league.

    I forgot that the reform also met a lot of opposition from users who took over shit rosters. Then season 1 users chime in with the rule change being inconsistent.

    I've accepted our fate in this regard, it's just funny to be that the most hated user in the league is also the one making the most out of this unfortunate situation.

    Season 1 users didn't know any better :twocents:
    I had never thought of there being a necessity for trade rules because it's my first online Madden dynasty and the 1-2 trades I did try in season 1 were rejected
    Only dynasty I've ever done is in NCAA and you can't rape trades/draft picks

    wasn't until season 2 people came in and saw pillaged rosters that the issue was actually brought up. and by then the league had run ~1/2 of it's life and it would further hamstring people taking over said pillaged rosters.

    the LAU Regime will not tolerate such ballyhoo. Just one of the many changes that the people of the TMBNWO will come to love and appreciate :bow:

    nah honestly we've kept up a better pace than I thought when we had the mass-add it was super slow and I would have said 3-4 seasons max. I think we get through 2 more full seasons after this one, which will be 6? total

    but 19 starters have expiring contracts next season for me so if we only make it one more full season I'll yolo my way to the door

    I think it's trading old stars and really young bench players. CPU fucking loves young players.

    Mine either, most of the time.

    I think the CPU also loves two sixths for a first or something like that.

    I raped the CPU in a few trades in the MC league (only after GBG built a superteam in NOLA)

    got 2 ~92-94 OL for a backups + 1 draft pick each. Probably 2nd-3rd round pks.
    also got joe haden for a mediocre CB and 2 drafts later 1st round pick.

    CPU loves draft picks for studs and they really do love Rookies

    Next year will have a lot more rules, I can promise you that. You guys don't want me to sound so Stalinist but that's a natural result from not having many rules so all I can do is judge each matter post-incident.

    Thus, we'll have a nice list of laws made up so everyone can work within them from day one.

    I've learned you can't really trust the children to play nice and do things "nicely." Cheesedicks will be cheesedicks, so next year there's going to be a moratorium on cheese.

    Panthers were up 24-10 at the start of the fourth, but it was a pretty good game. Then InZahnWeTrust was kicked "due to excessive griefing." He swears his said his connection dropped, but I've got a picture.
