Great stuff, GB!
How do you get so many turnovers AND so many punts in one game? I think it's funny that when FOF came out, we were arguing about things like a realistic yards per carry, yet this game has a dude with 43 INTs in two games! |

FYI, does the league publish play-by-play game logs?

Yeah, but for only 59 points... so he must not be getting a high degree of difficulty from the judges. Very customized!

I went to the Max Football forum to see if anyone else was discussing the stat issues, but it looked like the only forum with any real activity was the graphics forum where everyone talks about designing their uniforms...

Wow, just wow...

Maybe Daivd accidentally included some cricket rules.
You know, how games can go on for days.

And this is somehow a user problem rather than one with the game? Quote:
There it is, there's nothing he can do. Well, besides not promoting his product as, and selling it for the price of a game that's going to get full time support. But with the major inconvenice that they cause him he's providing the updates (or fixes as I'd call them) for free! Wow, what a nice guy. Last edited by mckerney : 05-30-2006 at 03:55 AM. |

Well from his post, it sounds like he finally tried to play the game instead of just designing uniforms. That seems to be the point when eyes begin to open that the game is nothing more than a glorified dress-up game. |

What I do not understand is the same people who were defending how long the game took, are now the ones complaining about how patches are coming out slow? This is a guy who took a year to do a horrible job on career mode. I am sorry people, but incompetent work takes time. It's not like he is writing good code here, it has to be hard for him to continually top himself and release worse code and results then the time before.

Antmeister, you've been following the progress of Maximum Pratfall as long as anyone here. What's so hard to understand?!? 1 passing touchdown = 6 pts + 1 extra point = 7 pts. 11 field goals times 4 pts per field goal = 44 pts. 44+7=51. And besides, even if they'd missed the extra point they'd still have a total of 51 points, due to rounding. It's like making a first down. It's customizable, baby! |

As this thread just continues to blossom, this Beatles tune keeps going through my head and I had to attempt to capture the words that accompanied the version in my head. I apologize for the lameness, but my real job only allows me to create posts for a few hours a day and there's nothing I can do.
If you can help with this song, I'd really like to make it a polished work of art and we'll see if we can get this song finished before Maximum Football. Quote:

200 plus posts in this thread is crazy, until you consider that some people post over 300 times in a werewolf thread. One guy has like 2700 WW posts, and counting.

Hmmmmmm......I wonder who you are referring to. I actually would have to learn the song since I haven't heard it played in decades. I had to hear the midi to recognize it again. But it could be a nice challenge since I never had the opportunity to ruin a Beatles song.
