FOF2K4 Question re: Quick Simming
I know I've read this somewhere, but I can't find it.
I'm quick simming some history for a new league, and invariably, I end up with the option of being fired by my owner since I haven't participated in free agency or raised ticket prices in 10 years. My question is, do I automatically get a chance at another team if I accept the firing, or does the game end? I think the answer is that I get another team to run, but I've never done this before, so I don't know. Can anyone confirm this, or tell me what happens when I accept a firing? Thanks.

Once you accept being fired, you are DONE. There may be teams around that will hire you, but don't bet on it. This ain't TCY, where there's always some bottom-feeder team willing to give you a chance.

I remember reading awhile back that you could un-fire yourself, or something like that, so the game dosn't end like FOF4 did with firings.

It's funny Ksyrup, I was worried about being fired when I quick-simmed through 12 years to start my dynasty, and though I did have the worst franchise record over that time, luckily I wasn't. What did shock me was finding out my team won the Solecismic Bowl in one of those quick sim years, and I'm talking the 9th of 12 seasons. That's pretty good for no free agency and keeping players only the length of their rookie contracts! Turned out that the team had drafted at 1/1 a couple years early a guy who turned out to be a HOF QB who put the team on his back all the way to the big game.

Yeah, I found out the hard way, but just reloaded the game and played that season over. You are given a choice to ignore the owner's firing when the next season starts, so that's what I did.
I simmed from 1983 through 2003 and am going to take over in 2004. My team, understandably, sucks. I think we had several above-.500 years in the mid-80's, and somehow went 10-6 around 2000 or 2001, but the rest have been anywhere from 1-15 to 6-10. Brutal. On the plus side, I've got plenty of cap space to work with!
