We tried that last year Oops and it didn't work. There have to be concrete rules or people will take advantage.
ultimately the decision lies with the person who is winning the game when the connection times out. that shouldn't even be a question. i don't give a damn if someone that I'm currently beating wants to start over fresh if it's like a 3-7 point game and still in the 1st half, absolutely let's just wipe that one clean. meatloaf and I played 4 times the first 3 were all 7-0 late in the 2nd quarter. No problem restarting in that scenario. But if it's 21-0 in the 2nd quarter or if I'm up by anything at all in the 4th there's no way in hell i'm restarting. Playoff race is way to competitive to waste a W
I hear you, but I'm also not a good enough player where I want to just give up a 21 point lead. Not often I have them. It's a shitty situation all around
Having two losses (to the top two teams in your power rankings) leaves me off the list, but beating Doug, the perennial whipping boy, moves 2-2 Seahawks up 7 spots? These rankings are bullshit.
I'm just going for the really really long con, in about 2 years I'll pop up- hey who wants to play some madden games for money, start with $20- oh shucks I lost, lets play again and make it $100 I should've won that game, and bam I'll turn it on.
My official power rankings will be released following the conclusion of week 5. I figured it would be unfair to judge some people based on their first 5 weeks, and others based on only 4 weeks.
First things first... I'm going to release my BCS Rankings which is purely a rankings based on what your record is and what is the record of those who you have played: 1) Ravens 2)Packers 3) Cowboys 4) Bats 5) Chargers 6) Dolphins 7) Redskins 8) Falcons 9) Titans 10) Jets 11) Patriots 12) Lions 13) Jags 14) Seahawks 15) Rams 16) Broncos 17) Colts 18) Browns 19) Panthers 20) Steelers 21) 49ers 22) Cardinals 23) Bengals 24) Eagles 25) Chiefs 26) Saints 27) Texans 28) Vikings 29) Thunderbirds 30) Diablos 31) Bears 32) Giants Next up, I'm going to formulate my power rankings based on bias and some facts too, probably.
My Personal Power Rankings (based on records and bias): 1) Packers - be the champ when you beat the champ 2) Ravens- feasted on NWO players 3) Cowboys- weakest schedule of unbeatens 4) Dolphins - had some very convincing wins 5) Chargers - Aarond Godgers is good 6) Seahawks - reigning champ. Lost to 5-0 and sim 7) Redskins- good results, I haven't seen him play, though. 8) Bats - only loss was due to missed PAT 9) Lions - two losses to 5-0 teams 10) Titans - quietly consistently wins 11) Jets - on the come up 12) Falcons - soft schedule 13) Pats - beats teams he should mostly 14) Broncos - tough schedule so far 15) Jags - solid team 16) Colts - traded best O and D player, and it shows 17) Browns - had a good year one 18) 49ers - struggling so far, could move up 19) Panthers - Stop Bell, stop Panthers 20) Steelers - Victor's my boy 21) Rams - Flacco bad, signature win was a sim 22) Eagles - team is bad, get players 23) Bengals - has had a tough schedule 24) Texans- haven't watched Spoons play 25) Vikings - Struggling this year, lol Stafford 26) Cardinals- could be better if he played more. 27) Chiefs - I haven't watched KC much 28) Bears - scores points, bad d plus TOs 29) Diablos - likely to move up if he plays his games 30) Giants - bad team, solid user 31) Thunderbirds - can't trust Gingers 32) Saints - love you Doug, but woof
Canes is good, he's just 0-3 against the reigning division champs.... 4 seems high, not even asking for myself to be moved up. You're rankings are shit rabble rabble rabble
Basically I just put you at the top of the 4 wins tier. I've not seen the Redskins play, Falcons have had an easy schedule, I think you and RV were interchangeable, and I think you're both better than TLAU
I'm on a roll watch out- Saints train coming woooo woooo. Spent a few hours last few days doing skills trainer- I was still playing like it was madden 05
so in week 7 if I beat the chargers again, will that change the opinion in your last sentence or is that just a fact of life for me going forward?
My only loss was a sim loss that would not have happened under any circumstances had the Internet gods allowed my game with the Titans to play out. The Jets are a fucking machine this season.
