And as for the power company, well one day when I am governor of this great state of Kansas I will impose so many fucking regulations on coal power plants (they're the only one in the state) they will never make another fucking cent. They will rue the day they fucking allowed the power to go out on September 1st 2010.
Damn man, that truly does suck. I think what I was trying to say in my drunken rant is that you're not alone. A lot of us have already got bitten in recruiting by some glitch or another. In season 1 in Rivals, I lost 6 hrs of recruiting because I recruited for 6 hrs then had to go do something so I just turned my PS3 off. I assumed that I would have my 4 hrs left to do when I got back and I did. The only problem was that the first 6 was gone. I knew something was screwy because before I had left, 1 guy had committed and I had offered schollies to 3 or 4 people( I think we were in week 2 or something like that). Now, there were no schollies offered to those guys and the guy that committed was waiting to get talked to again. That would be fine and dandy but my 6 hrs was gone too. So I essentially had 4 hrs to use on my whole board. It fucking sucks!!
Also in the 1st season in Rivals, ehicks was recruiting online and on 2 or 3 people, it glitched and he didn't get to talk to whatever recruit he was going after, but it used up the minutes on those recruits. In fact, it helped me get a DT that we both were going after because it said that he didn't talk to him but he did try to talk to him. It just glitched. Shit, this year in Workers, gameface said he got 0 points in the call summary on some recruits. I'm pretty sure he lost those points, maybe he can confirm if he did or not.
Anyway, what I'm saying is your not alone. I'm sure there are more people that have been glitched or something that just didn't say anything. I'm sure there will be more. I have a good idea though. Hey guys, if you've been glitched in recruiting or in any way for that matter, post it here so we can all know what to look out for and so we want be surprised when it happens.
As for EA, I have been one of the ones that truly hate EA. I used to love EA. I was a big big big Madden fanboy. In every 2k vs Madden debate/discussion/argument I was pro Madden hardcore. Having said that, I still think that 2k5 on the xbox is the best football game ever as far as on the field stuff. I had a PS2 though and Madden was king for me on that.
I started kinda hating them when they bought out the NFL license. Even though I was a Madden fanboy, I didn't like that move at all because I respected what 2k did for Madden. It pushed the Madden team to be on their game. I really really started hating EA with the release of Madden 06 on the Xbox360. When I played Madden 01 on the PS2 the first time, I was blown away by every aspect of the game. It was definitely a next gen game. I didn't want to put it down lol. It was just the opposite for Madden 06 on the xbox360. There was no aspect of the game that blew me away and I put it down after a couple of halves of playing. It fucking sucked!!
My disdain for them grew a lil more with every Madden release and now with the release of Madden 11 my hatred is overflowing lol. I am so upset that I almost got banned from OS for telling Ian Cummings "Fuck You" in a PM. If you go check, you can't send him a PM anymore lol. I guess I wasn't the only one to do that lol. Anyway, I truly truly truly hate EA for what they did to my beloved Madden. Yeah, I hate all the glitches and stuff, but that is the biggest piece of my hate pie.
Anyway, I started ranting again. What was I talking about in the beginning of this? Oh yeah, jhawk, you're not alone. You're a jhawks fan though. I'm sure you've seen worse than this lol.
