What is Your Favorite Kind of Dynasty?

MylesKnight · 05-13-2005, 12:46 PM

Just curious to get an idea what everyone really enjoys.. Myself, being the college sports fiend that I am (especially my beloved Golden Knights of UCF), I really enjoy the TCY and FBCB Dynasties.

But there are plenty of other solid choices out there as well, and I certainly read through plenty on a regular basis.

What do you enjoy?

For me i enjoy the EHM dynastys the most. The draft, the injuries, free agency, trades, setting up the right lines. I like almost every dynasty though.

Still being new here, and still trying to figure out what 3/4 of what the football terms mean, I'm partial to the baseball threads. But a close second would be the other 'off-beat' ones, the RL threads, poker, etc.

I've always enjoyed reading the TCY dynasties the most.

Would love to post my own, but don't really have the time nor the knowlegde to do so right now, but I may soon.

Just about anything that is interactive...

More than the game details proper, I enjoy dynasties with a plot or interesting story line.

Examples would be Ardent's walk-on QB or Kodos' Gatesville from previous years, and my current favorite is the baseball history one written by SelzShoes.

I like the real life ones a lot. Like the poker and college selection ones.

I like ones about paint chips.

Thanks for pointing that one out, fff! What a great read...

To me it really depends on who's writing it more than what it's about. I prefer the FOF - NFL based dynasties, but not exclusively. I like to read CM/FM threads every once in a while as well.

And I liked reading about the ZFL...

paint chpis, with poker a close second, and FBCB a very close third.

Gracias, MIJB.

My favorites have always been the most creative attempts, including anti-dynasties. Kodos' Gatesville, GB's Golden Domes, and even my own short-lived Iowegian Legion Des Moines Dragons.

I know how to play FOF, so I couldn't care less about YOUR team. Give me a new and creative way to think about playing the game, and you have my attention.

And BTW, I only come here for the football. I couldn't give a rat's buttocks for poker, baseball, hockey, soccer, or your pathetic love life. The only exception is the uniquely interactive dynasties (X-com, ZFL, and so on).
