nZane Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 [QUOTE=Rathen4;392801]What time does the game kick off? I'm actually quite excited.[/QUOTE]The games in our conference all sim at 3:00 Eastern. No idea how long it takes to sim. Also, for anyone who hasn't noticed, there's detailed play-by-play of all of the games after they're completed. Even includes cool little animated diagrams! Pretty impressive for a game that just launched to the public about a week ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEdgeOfReason Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 [QUOTE=nZane;392800]You accepted the contract, so yes you are. When I say active, I just mean on the team. If you take a look at the [URL="http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=132"]team profile page[/URL], you'll see that you're the starting NT. Also, derk just activated, so hopefully Anti and MJD will be pop on before game time so they can get in as well. And once again, if anyone wants to be on either Kickoff Special Teams or Kick Return Special Teams, just let me know. We can have up to 10 on each and it's a chance at a few extra plays (which I think equals extra XP). Keep in mind that KOS should primarily be good tacklers while KRS should be about blocking. So if you suck at one or the other, it's probably not a good idea to be on there.[/QUOTE] I have fairly good tackling, put me on the KOS, please.

ARGH! I think I'll be in Calculus while the game is ongoing...Hopefully, I can catch part of it (I'm assuming one can watch an ongoing game). EDIT: Think I was typing this when nZane put up that last part. The detailed play-by-play DOES sound impressive! Looks like I won't miss a thing after all.

nZane Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Yeah, I'm in but it's crawling right now. I think they just upgraded the server within the past day or so, so I'd imagine that there are all sorts of kinks to work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, I'd really like to keep the team to GDS forum regulars for the time being, at least. Of course, you could always use this to persuade him to join the board and possibly check out some of the other assorted goodies around here... :D Also, prepare for big red font: [COLOR="Red"][SIZE="5"]ALL CURRENT PLAYERS:[/SIZE][/COLOR] Could you all go to your profile and change 'Attribute Sharing Option' to either 'Team members can view' or 'Everyone can view'? Since all of us are player-coaches, it'd be nice if we could see everyone else's attributes to better judge any strategy changes we think we should make.

Antithesis Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Hey Nzane, just for my own knowledge, so i know what to train. Team pass alot or run alot? or is it about 50/50? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team pass alot or run alot? or is it about 50/50?[/QUOTE]Right now it's 52/48 pass/run, mainly because we have a pretty good group of receivers. I imagine that ratio will stay pretty balanced, so I wouldn't focus too much on one over the other right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[QUOTE=i effin rule;392835]I got 100 extra flex points. I can make a G/T/P if we need it.[/QUOTE]Probably hold off for now. I'd like to leave the remaining starting spots open for any other GDS regulars who want in. Besides, for this first game, the CPU has us covered, so I'm not too worried about that. Hour and a half to go, folks! Everything is updated, I hope. Waiting for masterded and MJD to confirm, and that should be everyone. Still looking for a KR and a PR (you can still start at another position). I believe MJD showed some interest, but they're both up for grabs.

TheEdgeOfReason Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I would like to be KR/PR, but it's up to yourself. Check my stats to see if I'm up to the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my stats to see if I'm up to the job.[/QUOTE]Once again, we're all player-coaches here, so it's as up to you as it is me. I took a quick look to try and figure out what the league leaders in returns have in common, but they're all CPU so I can't see their attributes. I did notice a DE in the top tier of KRs, which was a bit odd... (the game is obviously a work in progress). Anyways, you're penciled in as the current KR and PR. Either or both of those can change if necessary, but we'll go with it for now. I imagine that after this game we'll have a much better idea of what we need to change up.

GDE71 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Should be good enough at blocking to be on the Return team as a blocker. Spanky Grassbottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i effin rule Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 My opinion on KR/PR would be give it to our 3rd string WR and/or 3rd string CB just to allow them to get more reps somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
