Ya it wasn't losing that made me quit it was what ax said after the game I don't think his playing style is sim.. He does a lot if things that takes advantage of the game examples: lining up on 4th and 5 or less everytime and trying to draw my dine offsides, 5 wide no huddle or 4 wide rb in the flats 90% of the game, it's just not fun to play against I have played him 5 times in the last 2 and 1/2 years it's old I need a new scenery... Ive only lost to him and nobody else which says I need to play new people and lose to some other people with different styles it's just not fun

I guess my question would be directed towards K, do you think you exploit the game by going 5 WR rolling your QB out and hitting a WR? It seems clear that Coke doesn't consider this the style of play or league he wants to be part of because he's not having fun playing that style if that is going to be allowed.....but what about the rest of you?


....We can move players around, and get different match up's but bottom line as a group we need to decide if this is legit style of play or not...if everyone has a good understanding what is acceptable and not acceptable in regards to how this league run and what is SIM then we can all make decisions to if we want to stay or move on?

i think the real question should be is there are a core group of guys who are clamouring to play...and some people who have clearly cooled off as of late. Why dont we see who is still a die hard and who is on the fence...take for instance AX...if you dont want to be commissioner anymore or just not feeling NCAA Football...its more of a chore then a pleasure...let us know. I mean im new...but i see that there are guys who get there games in immediate...then there are guys who drag there feet. Does anyone agree?

History lesson Cool,

Without Ax. Q4TB would've never existed lol.

He's our tech support, our commisioner, our final decisions head honcho, the whole 9. That guy gives us all hes' got all the time. I'm sure he's just a little burnt and was prolly bitter from the loss. The late miracle comback against Coke should intrigue hmi to play more. I would plane it out to Florida just to smash his Fifa 11 into pieces if I could because that damn fucking game of footy is stealing my left and right hand man god damnit!

Real talk, If I go home tonight and Mydas' game isn't played, I'll assume he's not very interested in this anymore and have him part ways. We'll need to be shedding some dead weight that slow up the process.

Everyone else, I don't care if an advance needs to go over 24. But the whole idea of the forum is to LET US KNOW. If we don't kno we're waiting for, it makes it seem like a helluva lot longer. If you let us know when you can play, we can alls chedule aruond that time when it will be tenitively advanced. I've got no problem waiting for somebody if they've A) got a real life and B) have something more important than Playstation football to play. I get that, but the communication is neccesary. If you don't let us know, in all honest a sim loss tha results in all of your starters careers being ruined is suitable punishment.

K that was maybe a tad harsh. ADVANCE THIS BEITCH!

Ya I don't want to walk out on everyone just because of a couple games we can figure something out. I've invested to much time in this game to quit

Has Bucc played yet?...I know he had practice today?

that's the spirit....

Ok let me start by saying.. the post was out of pure anger and frustration and as u can see has long since been deleted.. i have also sent cookan a pm apologizing almost immediately after explaing why i had put it up.. but look at it from my end for a second... Cookan never looses.. we are 13 seasons in if u count last year he has won 8 and/or played in 8 of the 13 national championship games.. he never losses.. this is the most he has lost ever... and imo every time he losses it always because of ea.. or me doing something he feels i shouldn't. He is not the only person i play and no one else complains. Just imagine how it feels for every time you beat someone they are saying the lost unjust.. come on now.. 3 times i have one 3 times he has said my winning was always me cheating or hfa or something.. its fustrating he has never said damn k good game blah blah blah.. to me thats sore losing and to do it after every single win it gets old and today was just the boiling point.. was the game an amazing come back? yes.. why not just be mad and flame on your team and say k what a game.. insetad its o u did this n u did that.. once ok but every time we play and i win its complaints. but when we play n he wins he says nothing.. to me thats just bad sportsmanship now in regards to the stuff i do thats not sim..

1)lining up on 4th and 5 or less everytime and trying to draw my dine offsides

Is that not sim? its 4rth and 2 how many times in real life do u see teams line up and try a hard count to get a free first down? how is that a problem? really? he started doing it to after i did.. thats good coaching.. its called being aware of your situation and i have 3 to im not gonna use in the first half why not give it a shot..I really cant see the problem ther..

2)5 wide no huddle or 4 wide rb in the flats 90% of the game

Go look at my stats for the year and look at how many times i throw to a back out the back field? i barley ever do it so this is just nonsense.. and again its a spread offense thats part of the game its no exploit its no cheat.. but this doesnt even apply to me because i dont throw to my backs hardly ever.. Now do i run a ton of 4 wide yes but i run split i run trips i try to keep a back on the field to keep it honest so he cant over commit on the pass..but when ur down 21-3 what am i suppose to do? my run game is always getting shut down so i ended up becoming one dimensional..the inside run is wher i want to go in my spread but he takes that from me all game so what am i to do? force it in there for no yardage? i try end end up gettin stopped.

3) Scrambling with my QB and throwing on the run....

Look at the video yourselves.. am i bailing and throwing at the drop of a dime? no im looking and waiting i get flushed out... so at that point are we saying i must just run it? cmon mike vick tore jville up moving out the pocket making throws.. now i will agree the throw rolling left with a right handed qb is crazy but damn cant it just be a good play? it wasnt a cheat or an exploit i was scrambling had enough room to throw it and it was a completion..and honestly i have done that maybe twice in all the games we have ever played..

4) Scrambling with my qb out of a 4 wr set when everything is covered..

Really again is this an issue? i drop back he takes away the middle of the field with his lb and leaves space.. so i run.. he has done it to me on third a million times i play off and cover and he escapes the pocket scambles for first downs.. its football part of the game i have never complained..

Now do i have problems with his play absolutely!!!! do i complain..??? NO... last year he put his fast ass wr in the back field out of 4 wr then motioned him out and scored on a drive that tipped the game.. was i annoyed yes.. did i flame? no.. He controls the mlb all day and covers 2 routes in the middle of the field.. recognizes a rushing play im going to do because of the motion and flys to where the ball is going.. i have a man in motion on an option he is flying over there before the snap into space so he cant get blocked..he re aligns his players then picks his person.. and i always wait and let him get to the person he wants to.. could i line up and snap it and leave him with a de.. yes.. do i ever no.. end of the day its a game and we play to win.. and im not exploiting anything.. i would love to use more plays from out of my playbook but they dont all work.. would i like to call a playaction option read? yes but i cant cause i get sacked.. would i like to run hb screens? yes but any user can snuff it out and run over and break it up.. cookan plays the game to force u into plays he can stop.. and most of the game it absolutely works.. but every now and again ther is space and i take it.. whats the problem in that?? ne how thats it i said my piece.. im done.. after my last win we kept it off the forums and he flamed and we talked but 3 times i have won 3 times he has nit picked about how its just really frustrating..

in regards to my brother.. he works a solid 9 to 5.. has 2 kids a new born and a almost 2 year old.. his house doesnt settle down till late.. which is why he plays at 11 he has come on the board and communicated that.. he cant play before because the oldest keeps him tied up.. he doesnt need to come on here every day and say that he actually did come on n tell u when he can play.. he has interest in this and was pissed when we ran off without him last year.. its just like bucc or goat or ne one else who has a window they can play in once a day.. thats why i suggested flipping the advance so he would get to play 11 which would be after an advance at 8.. so he would be one of the first instead of one of the last... just a fyi.

ahem.....what has this thing become boys??? Lets learn to take losses man!! Yes ....having played K plenty of times in our Civil War days....is he borderline non sim??? yes.....is he a good guy?....yes...does he help make this OD what it is? yes...Lets all be adults about winning and losing.....reading the forum these past few weeks makes me shake my head sometimes.....take the tampon out guys....this is supposed to be fun.....if you feel someone is using shady tactics....tell them about it.,...then bring it to the group....namecalling and quitting are not the answers...having played this game a handful of times on heisman default, I have found that 5 wide and 4 wide are very high percentage passes...and if you have a fast quaterback...you should never lose....its a shame that EA's engine can be xploited so bad...but its facts.....I can line up 5 wide all day and make completions.....I can see being down, how you would pass alot...but continually picking the same plays over and over...is cheese...no ifs and or buts about it...This OD has changed....no matter what anyone says....its a different vibe....you gonna let this OD die on the vine??? or are we gonna make it work?? We all have to be on the same page though...lets do it

9's I agree with everything you say ya I bitch a lot an maybe I do need to change my tampon is there a five wide defense class I can take I'm willing to learn because what I'm doing just isn't working??

And from the HEAVENS the voice of reason has arrived....Thanks 9's for saying what many of us are thinking....No more restarts please... let's be man enough to take a Loss vs man or cpu......let's be respectful of the fact we all have different schedules and adv may not be as fast as you want (usually within in 24 hours which is faster then other OD out there)....communicate, communication is key to a good fun OD....9's when you comin back?

I want back in for the start of your next season

guess we need to figure out what conf would be best...is ggang coming back?...maybe a PAC 10 member could join you in the Big 10?

It's just nerves, we all take this seriously and nobody enjoys losing. I've been on the end of a loss where I've acted like a sore loser. Seems like things have calmed down but really, I don't know why everyone thinks that this OD has shifted so much? No offence Ax, I respect your bro has kids and a life and stuff but like... we all know Q4TB is demanding lol. This is something he should've been aware of before hand, and I'm not trying to get him out but he has to be willing tot ake a sim if he doesn't get on and play his game. I mean, it's been how many weeks he hasn't been on at his said 11 time to play. No disrespect to mydas at all, but all the OGs around here know this works because of communication. Which is why it's neccesary to post and be active around here to be in the know about what's going on. Why should we change the advance process, really. Just coz you got a new FIFA11 to play Ax, lol jk.

Seriously tho, if you guys aren't having as much fun as you were and everythings so different around here now, let me know because I know Online Dynasty is my #1 priority on PS3.

I can wait, but there are some pretty jumpy players ready to adv asap, to wait another 18 hours may be tough?
