ok macc i wasnt calling u a pussy or ne thing like that.. im just saying we all got it rough.. and fyi if u played them at home ur schedule rank went to b- so thats not tru and i understand ur frustration fully bro thats a hard way to open a season... chris fuck man i was confident i didnt mess up ne thing this year.. but ya both ur user games are on the road but it was because.. cookan couldnt have a road game or both his games would have been on the road.. again next year u and titan get 2 home user games the best i can.. i dont kno if u guys understand how difficult scheduling is.. it takes me like an hr n change to do everyones.. so i apologize for ne mistakes in them but sometimes i cant do shit.. especially with those conference games..and to try and keep a fair round robin with the users..bucc is every year for u.. cookan and i have to play 2 ooc user games because we dont play in season but then clemson and south carolina being rivals mean they are out as far as ooc games go then me and macc had a home n home.. so that left goat u bucc cookan titan and me with one more to get.u cant play bucc so it was me titan cookan or goat but then it all depends on what ur conference schedule is like and where u and another user have an open week i cqan schedule a user game.. normally with the rivalry games and all that u get one early and one late and blah blah blah.. so as u can see man its no easy task at all n sometimes ppl just get fucked.. n its totally random..

i hope you know i wasn't complaining K, i know it's a tricky deal, i really only play to have fun with you guys, and having two road user games doesn't bother me in the least.....seriously i appreciate what you guys do to run this league....

I second everything Chris just said

Clemson barely escapes with a victory against Michigan as it came down to the last minute. Michigan took the lead with 50 seconds left and Ellington returns the following kickoff for a td. Its the first time ive returned a kick for a td on this game.

hey guys ill play at 10ish pm

titan n chris mucho appreciated..

i have no gripes at all with ax regarding the schedule. however, the rb that he stole in offseason that i dsperately needed, would be another issue entirely.

i'm sure it has to be a ballbuster and a half to do the schedule. i have no doubt that you do the best that you can. and, is something i would want no part of doing. and yes, i would still say that even if the buckeyes beat me like a baby seal. somehow, i got out of the shoe with a 29-12 win.

Alabama just beats UW 59-56, hilarious game, nice start for my new DC....did you make the slider easier or harder LOL....I could not get Bama off the field, and ended up completely abandon the running game for audibles to get mismatch for my WR and running streaks....In all honest I don't mind losing, but when it feels like I can't do one thing to stop the CPU on defense it's really no fun, was just going to just SIM when I was on D because there was nothing I could do....please see videos posted...they had WR WIDE open and M Ingram was impossible to stop...here is some low lites if your a Huskie, i can not believe how bad the AI is for my D players, just completely lost trying to tackle or cover guys.....

A
Force a punt, and they run a fake for a first down
B
Bama has a RT catch a pass for a TD (see video)
C
Bama QB is a tasty 20-22 ya, that's 2 dropped pass for 317 yard 5 TD 0 INT
D
Mark Ingram 28-200 1 TD 70 long....on one screen pass he broke 4 tackles to get first
E
TO UW 2 Bama 0
F
Penalties UW 43 yards Bama 5

If we get ready to advance and I'm not almost home can someone plz recruit for me?

damn chris that sounds terrible

ya coke, it was a real bummer....maybe it's just me, but i would rather lose a game 17-14 and at least feel like i could get a defensive stop at some point in the game....

Playing legitamate teams is no joke, especially on the road. I don't think losses to the CPU are fun at all, I get pissed when I see any of YOU lost to the CPU. I like to see everyone at very least two loss at season's end so we know it was a close battle. It does seem like at times the CPU is unstoppable, especially these big schools. Either way, if we keep playing these tough teams and A A+ schedules, we've got to do a major revamp of the sliders or just not play traditional powerhouses.

It's a tough call some guys don't seem to have any problem see coke or goat win this week...for me, my d skills just aren't very good, and can't figure out to get pressure, tackle or do anything on D...so ya, it's really frustrating.

brain just text me, he will be on in 30 to play his game....

ok i played and i need to do my recruiting but im stepping out.. ill be back like 1 ish eastern please do not advance on me.. PLEASE i need to recruit thanks

we should be alright ax, that will give titan time to get on his computer and recruit for week 1


I dunno about all this scheduling stuff, I played USC who was #1 at the time, and yes it was tough but it wasn't over-done to me. I earned that victory. Iowa cruised to a 21-0 lead on me, and I came back and won. they were #6 at the time.

I think things are fine, and provides a good challenge, but that is just my opinion. We can't make it too easy...we need to keep it competitive or the game becomes repetitive after a few years.

HEY bucc tomorrow i get off my work at 2pm so if you want to play i will be home until 7pm then i should be back at home around 9pm so let me know what time is good for you

I work all day tomorrow too...so later tomorrow night should be good, I will let you know a more firm time frame tomorrow sometime, but after 10pm or so I would imagine as of now

i agree 100% with bucc... schedules are fine sliders are fine also... just make adjustments early in the game to avoid getting stomped if their rb is going for 200 on ya run 4-4 if they are passing for 500 run quarters nickle and dime with mix zone blitzes in there... i went on the road vs ohio state before any sliders were made and ya they were rediculous but i found a way to win solely on adjustments my only complaint is waiting on everyones schedules

I guess it's no wonder you two think the schedules are fine, you guys have won Gruden said 80% of the national championships in Q4TB... you're obviously very good. I'd like to think im DECENT at the game, and I can tell you that it wasn't even fun. Obviously Scott I'm going to play the pass or run if they're successful with one, I obviously know not to just keep running the same plays. Maybe my defence isn't as good as I think it is. All I can say is that game tore a little fun out of this for me starting a brand new year 0-1.

i agree with bucc, and i defintiely havent wont a natty title, havent even played for one... i love the competivesness... in real life, say v tech loses to boise week 1.... v tech isnt gonna cash in their season, there not gonna say football isnt fun anymore, they are gonna keep playing their ass off the rest of the year... i just think the sliders make it very realistic.

titan, looks like you have time to do your recruiting. Ax said he wont be home to advance for a little while longer.

Okay I guess I'm coming off alot softer than I'm intending to sound. I'm not saying it isn't fun anymore or I won't play, because I will in fact I'm hoping we can advance tonight shortly so I can have another crack at it. I don't want things to be easy but I'm just bitter that I had such a tough week one opponent. No CPU's put up 70 points on me EVER. I can't remember a team in real life that's put up 70 in recent memory. Call me a sore loser but it's just annoying to play a 6* school week one, that's just my opinion.

about to recruit now.
