Over 1000 posts in this thread. Crazy.

I didn't have time to play yesterday, with working 12 hours and seeing Batman at 11 PM (amazing, BTW). On Friday I was so tired but I still played a couple of games. I played Florida (as Kentucky) in my offline dynasty and got stomped. It was one of the old "it's in the game" type of games. I had 4 turnovers and FLA had zero. 1 of the INT's was my fault, but the other INT was stupid and both my fumbles were just ridiculous. They also had a fumble ret'd for a TD which I got challenged and got overturned. That would have been 5 turnovers. Geez. I was seriously pissed that game. And FLA ran up the damn score. I've never been in a position to watch the AI run up the score...but they did. And it really pissed me off. They scored TWO TD's in the last 2 minutes when up by multiple scores. They were both on 1st & 10 when they should have just been running the ball. The last one was with around :50 left when I had no timeouts left. They threw the ball 20 yards in the air, Harvin caught it, and scored. I was about ready to throw the game out the window.

It was challenging though. This was on AA. I'm seriously afraid to do Heisman with our crappy teams in NOFL, as I think there will be a lot of 6-6 or 7-5 teams. Or worse. I think on AA with the right sliders us crappy teams could go for 8-4 or 9-3. I'm hoping for that in my offline dynasty. I'm 6-1 with Kentucky but I still have to play UGA & Tennessee. In the online dynasty I play both SEC human opponents in my first year, also. We're not going to get in 10 years in this online dynasty because of how long each week is going to take. So I'm hoping to at least be in a decent bowl in year #1. We probably won't finish year #1 til November. Stretch out that timetable over the next 12 months. I dunno. Maybe I'm in the minority here.

As for Florida...I won't soon forget what they did to me. I play them in Lexington next year with better recruits and I seriously hope to kick their ass by 30. And I too will run up the score. FLA= teh jerks :p

I really don't want to go 8-4 or 9-3 with "crappy" teams. To me, that wouldn't be realistic (unless you have a very easy schedule).

If I have a choice to play with altered sliders on AA or slightly less altered sliders on Heisman, I'm going to go with AA 100 times out of 100. Heisman just isn't fun. Too many times the extra boost that the CPU gets makes you shake you head and just say "oh common". It's no longer a matter of ok well that could have happened...these are college atheletes and guys take bad angles and it turns into that literally would have been impossible *kicks chair over*

Ok ok...who wants to play?

i agree. i think the CPU cheats too much on Heisman. of course, another way of looking at it is when you're playing a more dominant player online - nothing you do seems to work and somehow every play they move the chains with ease and can stop you whenever you want. there are times i've felt like that, just being overmatched. so should the CPU have a level that equates to what it'd be like playing a really good human? perhaps so. that level is there for the people who want it - AA provides the best experience for me and i prefer to tinker with that. i think both teams have a chance, and that i really have to work to win the game. on Heisman the chips are stacked against me.

i'll log on now.

I'm waiting for you big boy...

created a room for today.

Had a good game vs. Anthony last night... finished 14-7 all the scoring was done in the 1st half... It was lots of fun... Probably would have been better if I was playing HellAtlantic though... What ever happened to that dude anyway?

Anyone up for a game right now?

Sun Tzu is just destroying me. I'm making some stupid plays, but he has the best stick skills of anyone that I've played on here.

REALLY close at the end of the first half. gh bud...and thanks for the compliment :)

anyone game?

Good game DeToxRox. It started off a little crazy with the exchanged kickoff returns for touchdowns. I just had a few more lucky bounces, namely the tipped pass in the corner that was caught for a TD. There was also the punt early in the game that I was going to let bounce into the endzone that the computer picked up that ended up being run back for a TD.

Anyway, look forward to playing you during league play.

You played well. I had three things kill me.

1. Special teams. Two ST TD's were killers. The punt moreso because it was a good punt that took a weird bounce.

2. INT's. Threw across my body too much, lead to a few INT's that were killers.

3. Hit stick. Gave up big plays going for fumbles, it kills me every f'ing time.

Good game though, it'll be fun come season time.

The NOFL Pac-10 Conference championship just got a bit more challenging for EF27 against a well-positioned Stanford program and Sun Tzu. :)

Seems like every one of you guys is getting 2-3 returns a game for TD? Is there anyway you've found to fix this?

I have yet to allow a return for a TD, or get one for myself...

Are you aiming your kicks out of bounds or going short with them?

nope...

Are there any good sites out there that setup leagues? The online leagues are perhaps the only thing that has me intrigued at the moment. I have a couple friends who I might start one with but not sure. Otherwise I'd like to find one that perhaps has some older guys who don't quit after a bad couple games (and won't be cheesey).

You may want to check the Operation Sports Forums. With online football leagues unless you've known the guys for years it's pretty much hit and miss.

Maclin is an absolute beast in the game. I haven't mastered the skill of uploading videos yet or you would have seen a sick catch he made against HA last night. I'm at around the 30 yard line and I have Daniel roll left looking for a receiver but no one was open. I look back the other way and Maclin is breaking free on a corner route. I throw it across the field toward the endzone and J-Mac makes a diving catch. I've returned 4 or 5 kicks with him too and he's had many big plays. Unfortunately I'm sure in every dynasty you play Maclin will leave after the first year.

I think the MU defense plays weaker than its ratings. The d-line is iffy and the secondary gets burned quite a bit. Witherspoon is great but I think they really underrated William Moore.

Don't do this to me! :banghead:

:lol:

I've been playing the demo and I've seen sacks and have yet to return a punt..

Who wants to ball with me?

Gamertag is DesignerSky. Send me an invite and prepare to get wrecked.

(you will probably kick my ass...first day with the game here)

I'm signing on now for whoever is around.

Holy shit...me and Karlifornia just had the greatest game ever. Once I figure out how to upload videos I will.

Kodos answer your damn messages.

Yeah, great game man. Once you scored with :04 left in regulation, I had a feeling I was done. A lot of good action in that game. We'll have to have a rematch at Rutgers so I can return the favor :(

I'm up for another game with whoever wants to play....tried asking kodos but looks like he is afc.

Also, how do you invite people? Everytime i try the button is grayed out.

I'm up for another one if nobody else takes you up on your offer...as for your question on invites, I was wondering the same thing

I'm up for a game if anyone is interested. I warn you though that I am real rusty with football right now and will probably be a walkover for most of you.

What is your gamertag? Let's roll.

MrTurdFurguson

Where do I go?

Jetsin06 (Rutgers) at Karlifornia (Stanford)

I'm down by 7, 10 seconds left.

In overtime, Stanford has to settle for a field goal, leaving me with a chance to win with a TD. On the first play of my possession...

go to the lobbies section. go all the way to the bottom. scroll through the custom lobbies till you find FOFC.

password is TROUT

K, I'm coming.

When me and rainmaker are done and if you are free, I'm definitely down for a rematch.

Oops, sorry Mike. I somehow exited the game when i was trying to look at the stats. Sorry to cut off the end game conversation. :)

I'm up for a game if anyone is interested.

I just sent you a message.

I'm up for a game as well

I just want to say playing the guys on here is a HUGE breath of fresh air. Having played Anthony (cough), EF27, Mike, and Karlifornia, every game was just like the real thing playcalling wise and felt JUST RIGHT.

I just got my ass handed to be by..I'm guessing Sun Tzu....I was NMSU and he was Stanford..I threw about 100 INT's..just stupid throws. If anyone is looking for a game against a quality player, hit up Katsumura..he's got game.

That was me :)

If it weren't for the picks the game would have been pretty close...you have a great mix of passing and running plays. Thanks for the kinds words btw.

Good game Rainmaker. Another close one down to the last few seconds.

I;m up for another!

GT: DesignerSky

I created an fofc room if anyone is looking for a player...although I *think* me and Kodos are about to play. If your waiting for a match, create an fofc room so we know you are there!

I'm in the room too...kodos seems to fade in and out of consciousness :)
