    This is the first time I have carried over from one game to another with the same group of guys. I am curious to see how all of our games translate into 12.

    Yeah I'll be starting driskel from the beginning. Floridas roster is also pretty screwed up. I was looking through the teambuilder and saw florida had the orange rosters as well. That's pretty cool since I won't have to create uniforms now.

    Yeah, I am not a huge fan of using default rosters but the plus side is, kinda like I just said, they are pretty even teams so its competitive.

    As long as we cut Pryor off Rauloe's squad im fine lol Very Happy

    I dont want to see that motherfucker running out of the tunnel when I meet Rauloe for the big 10 title

    @Jared, are you running Workers or is Yung? Also are you changing sliders while they are still doing tuners and patches or are you going to wait? I don't really wanna do a league with dudes wanting to be Alabama and Oklahoma right off the bat. How are you doing teams? I have some other guys who may want in but I can't decide if I should just run my own league or what?

    @Urb good luck getting cheeser Zeph to do scouting reports. His last game recap was "next" and he has like 2 posts in the last month.

    @Urb is Rivals advancing every day? I really would love to stay in but I would hate to hold up the league. But I thought I would before and only did once when I thought we were waiting for you to get back from that Boner thing.

    Changes won't be that major. I believe we have a good thing going now, but there are some things that I think cam make us more efficient and better.

    First up, everyone will required to provide a cell number for texting purposes sonthat we don't have problems scheduling games. I know most of re time this isn't a problem but there have been tomes where we've all been like where is so and so at and we don't have any way but board communication to contact them.

    Secondly, we will all have subforums with our teams. This is where you will find that contact information and well as the scouting reports that Splff mentioned. There are two ways that I'll allow these to be done.

    The first way they can be done is by answering a series of questions that I will make up. These will be basic questions such as what base formation a coach used most often. Do they like to run the option? Do they run to the strong side, etc. These will be requires, win or lose, for all user games.


    The other option is for you to write out, in detail, your own scouting report. Basically you have free reign bit don't just hoe me one sentence.

    You may ask, hy am I requiring this? The reason is simple. We don't have a spectator mode to scout our opponents. Usually we go into a game blind if we haven't played a team or played them in a few seasons. Thaws reports won't take more than 5 minutes to fill out and will provide veryone with ways to game plan, which I think will make the dynasty more interesting.

    The other changes has to do with changing teams. Simply put, there was too much of it this season and that took away from what rivals is suppose to be about and that's building rivals. Anyone that switches teams this season will take a one star prestige hit. I hope this prevents changing all together.

    All that shit sounds good to me. I'm still gonna do a list of rules and stuff and you can tweak them as you see fit. We need written rules because last year too many times people were saying there wasn't a rule for this or that. This way they can be plain to see. It'll be good for any new people that come along as well.

    Yep it ended Sunday. You missed it by 1 day. If you really wanna play infamous though, I'll let you use my name and you can download it like that.

    This will be my 4th year with some of these guys and my 3rd with most. Once you find a good group of guys its good to stick with them. Every year will be enjoyable like that. I'm looking forward to busting some heads

    I watched it all the way to about 60 then I stopped. The list was too retarded for me. No way jared Allen should have been 89 or whatever he was. There was a lot of bullshit on the list so I said fuck it and stopped watching. Do you remember who all were in the top 5? I'd be interested in knowing who else was in it.

    This proves that list is bullshit lol. J/k

    Definitely. Sorry I wasn't around yesterday. This is the perfect way to end '11. Even tho it wasnt UGA/UF, we still managed to keep our rivalry strong this year. Let me know when u can go today.

    My responses to the posts of today:

    Blaze -

    I do hope you come back, with you, Rauloe, and I in the Big 10 it could be a wild ride.

    Dips -

    I have not seen Yung around for a few days so I am not sure about the workers situation.

    I would PREFER he runs it and I could just be around to help out if he is busy. If he ends up not wanting to run it, I would suggest we give it to Hawk, who is a very reliable/active/dedicated commissioner althought if that comes to pass be warned that he does like very tough sliders.

    IF for some weird reason Yung doesn't want to do it anymore and it ends up being me, I will definitely want to make the whole crowd happy and not just make decisions on my own so I am more than open to roll any way the majority wants. I would prefer starting as a 3* team or lower, I would prefer tough sliders but we can wait and see. Nothing will be out of the question or not negotiable, ya know


    Dips/Spliff -

    I promise that Zehp will do his recaps, he will follow any rule that is set. And I gotta throw this out there, no joke, in the last 4 days I have seen him once at home, literally one time for 5 minutes when he picked up some clothes to bring to his girls house. He cares very much about this I promise you hes just busy as fuck.

    Alright Jared, I know Zeph is ya boy, but I'm gonna be frank. He sounds like he's too busy to be in an OD like what Urbs want. I have nothing against you or Zeph. This is just my observation. Look I'd like to get in at least 2 or 3 OD's every year, but I know I'm too busy for that. Now I'm not saying he doesn't care about being in the OD or nothing. Sometimes that's just how it is.

    PS4 shipping by 2012.

    Don't believe it. We would've saw it at E3 if that was the case. As far as I can remember, a system is shown at E3 approximately a year before it's released. Hell PS3 was shown almost 2 years before release. Now I wouldn't be surprised to see a PS4 at E3 next year, but I highly doubt it will be releasing next year.
