last I checked there were 2 or 3 teams that hadn't finished thier preseason business

not trying to rush anybody, since we said we'd start Sunday

but it would be cool to get underway sooner if everyone was ready

Found some more:


Putting together an injury/suspension list that will affect our league. Remember it will be any player that is hurt/suspended in real life at the time we start the league. Just to make things easier I think we should only include season ending injuries but suspensions of a few games wont be hard to keep track of:

Atlantic Division
Boston College - TreeTwista10

Florida State - HaLo
G - Evan Bellamy - out for season, blood clot in leg

NC State - stixman

Clemson - dgspencer
LB - Cortney Vincent - out for season, discipline
RB - Ray Ray McElrathbey - cut (I assume hes not on there, but just in case)

Wake Forest - scooterncst8

Maryland - tracer


Coastal Division
Georgia Tech - Apocalypse
WR-James Johnson quit team
WR-Greg Smith to RB
RB Jonathan Dwyer to FB
CB - Jerrard Tarrant, rape (need to check on the latest on this before season)

Duke - Slave Famous (Commissioner)

UNC - wolfpack2105

Virginia Tech - Jaybee1200
WR - Brandon Dillard - out for season, ACL
RB - Brandon Ore - kicked off team


Miami - guitarguy

Virginia - pttyndal
LB - J'Courtney Williams, stealing a credit card
DE - Jeffrey Fitzgerald

Kansas State head coach Ron Prince is a former U.Va. assistant. The 6-foot-3, 279-pound Fitzgerald was a two-year starter for the Cavaliers who reportedly was considering transferring to JMU. Published reports have said Fitzgerald's departure from U.Va. was related to academics. - Hampton Roads Daily Press"

FSU is just really good. From the looks of it, you played well Tree, its just the FSU defenders could close on the ball so quick. Their defense is rock solid and the offense can move the ball very well.

i played dgspencer and we had a pretty good game. some random red zone turnovers for each of us. i did manage to stay on the ea servers for the whole game, so that bodes well.

^^^^i think i threw 0 TDs and 5 picks...i had a nice score (my only score of the game) when I rocked his punt returner and took the fumble to the house, but I was outmatched...he outplayed/outcoached me, but FSU definitely has some better athletes than BC...good thing I have Excellent academic prestige to recruit the nerds who run 4.25 40s

Lots of jokers use Clemson and WVU online all the time

I can adjust to most of them, but the good ones just run right by me

He puts Spiller at QB and just runs wild with him and Davis

Still looking for an answer to that

For one I did beat, he apparently went to the same school as Jaybee's opponents

^^^ HA! so he hasnt read ANY of this thread?


oh and:

Quote :
"Ryan Ferguson brought you a first-glance review of NCAA 09 that was generally positive, but some words of warning if you're still thinking about buying the game: it's plagued by an unusually high number of serious bugs this year. A sampling:

* Sliders are broken. CPU sliders do nothing and human sliders affect both the computer and the player.
* Roster editing remains enormously problematic, though EA says there is a patch coming in the next week.
* There are reports the online dynasty mode is broken and sometimes simulate games that have been played by human players.
* The new speed model (where a 99 speed is significantly faster than a 98 speed, which is a stupid change to make... just change the distributions of speed) causes major problems with CPU pursuit angles.
* SuperSim is still broken: if you use it to fast-forward through the end of a blowout and you're on 7 or 8 minute quarters it will pack in 60% more plays than would happen in an actual football game and you'll end up winning 120-17 or something. The sound you hear is my friend Anthony looking for a gun and a pen to write his suicide note ("DEAR EA: I HATE YOU SO MUCH") with.
* Kick returns are so, so broken.

EA is promising an emergency patch for the roster editing and a second patch down the road. Last year, that second patch took two months. I'm going to hold off until the patch and see what the internet says."

That all sucks

But I say we get started with our dynasty

I think what I'll do is if I don't hear one way or the other from guitarguy soon, I'll go in manually do the preseason stuff for his team so the rest of us can get started. Miami doesn't play an ACC game till week 5, so either he can pick up whenever he wants or we can find somebody else before he's scheduled to play a human opponent.

If this sounds good, let me know, or if you'd rather wait for him, I guess we could do that too, but 11 of us are ready to play.

guitarguy was last seen 17 hours ago playing NCAA Football 2009

i'll shoot him a message on XBox and tell him everybody else is ready and he needs to go ahead and finish up his preseason tasks

Cool I sent him a few pms too

I figure if we don't hear by 7 or so, I'll go ahead and either turn his team over to the CPU ( I can always reassign it to him later) or just take control and manage it myself until he or someone else takes over

This way the rest of us can get our week 1 games started tonight...sucks for whoever has FSU since they have a week 1 bye

but maybe if we all get into and finish our first weeks we can move right along to week 2 sometime this weekend

I would say get someone else to take guitarguy's spot rather than just automating his week 1 stuff. I mean, I guess it could be some family emergency, internet problems etc. but baring something like that its bad that he hasnt even posted in this thread at all. I am sure it wouldnt be too hard to find someone good to replace him... Nym410 might want back in if he is going to be borrowing an 360 until he gets his back

Hopefully he can do that soon


I just really don't want 11 active users and 1 who checks in like once a week and fucks it up for everyone else



If anyone is on LIVE and sees that he has done the stuff and is ready, let me know and I'll go on and advance it

Looks like we can't edit the run pass ratio

We can always change the sliders

but I don't know if we want to play 8 minute quarters or Heisman difficulty

You really think it would be worth everyone doing all the preseason stuff again ?

I'm more concerned about the user vs user games, since we play 8 of those per year

and those ratios won't effect games where we play each other

I always took it to be that the sliders affected all unused players... so 10 out of 11 would be... but its up to everyone else, I just want to get the season started asap, but if we are waiting on a person to take guitarguy's place anyways...


trying these out, working really good so far:
Heisman - 8 Minutes

Slider User(CPU)
QB Accuracy 40(50)
Pass Blocking 15(50)
WR Catching 15(50)
RB Ability 85(50)
Run Blocking 85(50)

Awareness 70(50)
Knockdowns 75(65)
Interceptions 35(35)
Break Block 100(20)
Tackling 65(55)

FG Power 40(40)
FG Accuracy 0(0)
Punt Power 0(0)
Punt Accuracy 0(0)
KO Power 65(65)

I think that tonight I'm going to go in and do the preseason stuff for Miami

They should have several big time recruits interested so I will just add the 35 highest rated player with an interest in the school to the board

As far as redshirts, thats more of a judgement call, but I will side with redshirting more players than usual so whoever does take over can take off those redshirts if they want whenever they join

I will advance to week 1, and hopefully by the time everyone has played thier first game, guitarguy, nym410 or whoever will have joined and be ready to go, so they can still play all 12 games themselves

I don't think this should be a big problem for anyone, but I know people are anxious to get started and I think this would be the best way to do that

and you don't have to worry about collusion recruiting wise...I doubt Miami and Duke will be targeting the same players
