TLAU not sure if you saw my tag on groupme - I'll be in town all weekend, can knock it out tonight late, tomorrow anytime after 3... or Saturday.
May try to do it tonight since most of my family gets in tomorrow and we're doing grandparents / step moms side / etc the next two nights
Not sure what's been said or discussed but wanted to clear something up: It wasn't DW that made me decide to quit, it was everything. We have ppl restarting 9 times to avoid injury, ppl running the score up and throwing 8 TDs to one guy cuz they were "going for the record" or when someone quit in the middle of the game and made them mad. We literally post something to the effect of don't run up the score/try and cheese a player for xp in the preseason game and not 20 minutes later someone throws for 7 TDs and activly leaves their starters in. Every single thing is a fight every single day. It was at this point when someone I know in real life is trying to gain an advantage in a video game where he knows he's going to beat me anyways, it made me realize that there was no way to ever stop it. And when it made me mad I realized I was mad over something incredibly unnecessary and that the game had become completely unenjoyable. Enjoy your league. Someone will have to step in with bad puns and occasional pitchforks towards terv. If you've PM'd me, I'm not being intentionally rude, I deleted groupme. Merry Christmas ya filthy animals TLDR CLIFFS: kelso is a pussy and quit, but wishes you a merry christmas
I think you should just come back and have fun. Leave the random bullshit rulings and stress to me. Baker Mayfield deserves it.
So you're telling me all these rules I've been told about that are super duper enforced now are bullshit and a only stupid chickenshit like putting an 83spd statue at backup tightend get enforced??????? Naaaaaah can't be This is exactly why I brought it up when they posted those arbitrary cheesing rules a few days ago. When the margin of victory hits a certain threshold make it mandatory to put in 2nd string. 35 is completely reasonable. If it's stil in the 1H that's fine. One the 2H kicks off if you're up by 35+ you should 100% have to take out your offensive starters. Keep the D in, it's harder to cheese with that side of the ball and if you're up by 5 TDs then you should be able to finish with a comfortable victory with 2nd string O and 1st string D in there. It's a really fucking simple fix but people in the league that scream "it's a SIM league it should be realistic!!!" Are probably the same ones that would cry about this. 47 straight Nelson Corch Doug Whoever is in charge. I'd implement this rule as soon as possible because if you have any sense you'll agree with it. And I'd bet Kelso would come back if a rule that actually keeps faggots from being faggots is in place.
What rule are you suggesting? The Kelso method that he fought for was the following: No CPU games will be played. They will be sim W for the more available player. With the no CPU rule, you'd have a structured advance of 3 nights, so it's easy to determine who wins on availability. If a player misses 4 games in a season, they're suspended from the league.
The cheese in this years league is nothing compared to the last two years. But if you're not having fun I understand. I miss you and Baker needs you.
yup, and this season will have some stiff penalties because everyone has had fair warning by now. game over for the gouda purveyors
And FWIW I'm advocating it for both CPU and User games. I'm calling it the common sense SIM rule: If you are up by 35 points or more and it's past halftime, you have to put in 2nd string offensive players. 1- it is the epitome of realistic gameplay. If we don't have a rule like this then calling this a "sim league" is a crock of shit. You can't say "we made rules to make this a sim league" and then have someone beat another user by 40 and never took out the starters 2- it solves every single cheese problem out there for offensive players
I originally TL;DR. I think what you suggested is fantastic. I just know that I'm not going to monitor that 35+ in the 16 games played weekly. If people would just play reasonably; none of this would matter.
Game isn't over for shit unless you make people take starters out on offense in user games at some designated winning margin. I guess I would read a rebuttal for why this rule is "unfair" or gay. But it should make sense to anyone who actually watches football
You don't have to monitor it. If someone doesn't comply and the person losing actually cares about the person being a dick then pause, alert group me, and someone give the winning team a chance to comply with the rules or fuck that faggot turn the XB1 off and the douchebag gets a SIM Loss Very easy
Really the only things that I care about are position changes that are made strictly to get a speed advantage where they shouldn't. IE: Safety to LB, WR to TE, RB to FB. I honestly don't give a shit about 80 speed old ass WR's going to TE as it doesn't help any. In fact, hurts your blocking. However, that goes to the "case by case will lead to favoritism" bullshit that people cry about so it's easier for me to just say no.
If I could control the XP gained by award winning, that would be the ultimate way to nerf the cheese. krobs could throw 1000 yards and if it leads to an award and the game gave him 50k for that, I could just chuckle and back it down to a reasonable 1k.
Now that I actually give a shit about the league, if y'all are gonna take this "we got rules to stop cheesing!!!!" Shit then I'm gonna suggest rules that actually stop the problem. Do you disagree with my proposed rule? One of the better users in the league quit because yalls method of making this a true SIM league is horribly fucking flawed
Yea I don't have a problem complying with the rules, in the spirit of it being a realistic league. But if you're gonna make it a realistic league don't go halfway.
