Rivals 2011 Dynasty

Hey guys, I think I'm gonna retire. I'm just really busy with stuff right now.

Spoiler:

Next season should be an interesting one. The new blood all seem hungry to win.

Whoever advances let me know, because I'm at work, and I could get one of you to do the player's leaving for me. Hopefully I don't have any. Yeah right.

Hawk you at home?

I'll advance it.

sweet deal

Alright yall it's telling me I gotta wait 10 min before I can advance again, so we're at the end of the season stage right now. I'll advance to players leaving in 10 min.

Do ODs only let you advance one stage at a time?

With all the turnaround and coaches coming in, going out, teams switched, I decided I am not gonna do a top 5 or anything like that, but I will vote for 2 things.

Coach of the year - Hawk, whoever wins the show, with the exception of Ho last season who I put number 1 even though he wasnt in title, usually gets my vote here. Good job hawk.

Rising Star: To me this is a two horse race between Hova and Zehp. Hova beat Ho twice this year, thats crazy. Zehp took down a top 3 user with a top overall team in Texas (stop) and thats hard to do. I might be accused of favoritism, but I go with zehp. What he did with the worse secondary I have ever seen on a six star team is remarkable. He still makes rookie mistakes but gets a little better every time he plays. Hova, you did fuckin awesome this year.

I know a lot of you visit OS so I'm gonna let yall know some crazy shit happened in the Madden forum today. Apparently some rogue mods got together to impersonate David Ortiz, the most hated man in Madden history. If you don't know who he is, he was the lead developer in charge of Madden when it came over to next gen and who a lot of people blame for how shitty it has been on next gen. Anyway, these mods decided to impersonate DavidOrtiz as an April Fools joke and did a good damn job too. If it wasn't April 1st, I would have definitely believed it was him. He had damn good answers for all the questions asked. Anyway, the higher ups found out about this and a whole shit load of mods just got banned lol. This shit is crazy. What's really crazy is the way whoever was impersonating him answered questions. I mean they were really good and believable technical answers. Even though I doubted it because of the April 1st, in teh back of my mind, I was like that might really be him. Anyway, the Madden forums are crazy right now. This is the thread the impersonator started:

Well shit. They've deleted the thread now. That shit was craaaaazy. Here is the new thread they created where they're talking about the shit:

Millenium( the Forum Owner) is pissed:

Sorry I have been MIA on the boards during this.

Anyone that knows me knows that I adore ***** ****'s Day. It is a great chance to allow everyone to have a little fun at OS. I pride myself on running a tight ship, and today is one of the days I allow my staff to let loose.

Last night, I activated the avatar pranky, and many of the censorship pranks you still see. A few guys had some fun with users they are acquainted with (JJ was extremely well humored during this) and changing some forum names (ice soccer still makes me chuckle). But a few minutes ago I got a phone call about the David Ortiz thread.

Let me start by saying that, on the surface, it may seem like a funny **** to some. But it truly is not. You are taking a real person and humiliating them. Some of the things that were said by the impersonator were downright idiotic, and I am ashamed to even have my name attached to people that I brought on this site's staff. They are an extension of myself, and should act accordingly. Due to the actions of the involved (who I will say right now have been identified initially as Ryan36 and Pared), food has been taken off of my table, and I am no more happy about it than any of you.

Moderators are not above the rules here. And I will show that when I get home tonight. I do not take well to people possibly costing me money and relationships that I covet.

I will adress this all in full later. Again I apologize to those of you affected by this.

He only named 2 mods, but there are about 5 or 6 who are pink and banned. lol OS is a trip lol. Apparently OS lost a lot of street cred in the dev community with this prank.

ok now I'm about to try and advance again.

I concur about Hova. Zeph, I don't know about. He had a good season, but his team was still pretty stacked the last time I looked. I'd be inclined to give the coach of the year to Jhawk too. Our 10-3 game was epic IMO.

Oh and we're at Players leaving now.

I have no idea how you motherfuckas pulled off a 10-3 game lol

Urban you got 2 players leaving early for the draft:

Junior(RS) RE James Swain (91 ovr)

and

Junior(RS) ROLB Travis Fowler (96 ovr)

Zehp has a great QB and a really good o-line. That being said, if you look at the HBs and WRs/TEs there are decently rated guys but not a lot of barnburning speed.

Look at those fucking corners man. Thats all im sayin

OHHHHHH SHIT

Zehp is fucking pissssssed.

Redshirt Sophomore Lorenzo Montana has declared for the draft. Even after 3 hours of convincing he left. OUCH.

That stings.

lol

It kinda sucks for zehp because I have seen some crazy talent stay on their teams the last few years.

Uh oh.

Think Texas is pretty easily taking down the Big XII now

lol back to this, one of the mods that got banned posted some shit to the effect of OS is easy as fuck to hack or something like that and now he's hacking into the site making stupid thread like this one lol:

http://www.operationsports.com/forums/madden-nfl-football/476126-a.html

lmao the madden forum is going to shit lol. BTW, the title is supposed to be cat I guess. They got those stupid profanity filters blocking the word cat so it looks like *** lol.

I convinced both of my guys that were leaving to stay. Now I'm getting some shit saying the online dynasty is currently unavailable. This shit better save. I need both of those layers, especially the SS because I was gonna move my other SS to FS because I need a backup. Come on EA don't fuck me over again.

Splff give those guys all the time they need. Definitely want both of them back next year.

So a full 10hrs is what you want me to spend?

Still saying online dynasty unavailable. WTF EA?

Spliff its transfers then your efucked, its the EA transfer glitch. Its happened to me, happened to hawk.

And uh, I am in the same boat as Zehp now. My QB left early for the draft and wasnt convinced to stay.

Really fucking lame.

Both Zehp and I have very shitty backups....ohhh man

Is anybody else having hard time getting into the OD or saving to the OD?

Are the guys transfers?

nah Zehp and I both just took care of biz

Jaredlib wrote:Are the guys transfers?

yep, why?

There is a glitch with transfers. It happened to hawk a couple season ago and happened to me literally every single season in my Notre Dame dynasty in an OS league.

It sucks but there isnt shit you can do.

You can try convincing one to stay, exiting and saving, then going back for the other, but one of those guys, and odds are both of them, are bugged. I know it sucks I hated it.

When it happened to me I tried everything. Wiped hard drive, deleted and re-loaded files, left the dynasty, came back, repeated, etc, its a bullshit glitch.
