This is a crazy theory of mine, hell it may be clear as day to everyone else here - I think stamina will play into how your players perform in game. I also think stamina also plays into how your players train. When I see the training intensity values, with intense being +3 en, and the relaxed being +15 en that says to me that intense makes your current energy refill slower, but whatever you are training increases at about a 20% greater rate. This really means something after a few weeks (if we keep playing that is). Now if I'm assuming you guys had the same priorities as me, you wanted to put your points into other stuff, and not stamina when creating your character, you may have put in a token point but nothing of any value over the original newbie stamina value. So we are all low in stamina. In my opinion, if we all make the investment in training stamina intensely for a week or maybe two, we will be able to train harder for real tangible values that have actual payoffs ingame. This may cost us some wins or stats in the short term, but our players will be better long term (if that matters to anyone)

Good idea. If you need stamina in the meantime get it with some equipment.
 
also, about computer players:

they level evenly

they don't have "Special abilities"

and they don't train

that's why people use human players over computer players.

 
I added 400 regular seats and 100 club seats (cost $650 K).

However, I figured since we were pretty much sold out 'til the end of the season already, it'd be a good investment... :lmao:

If you are on CPU team, get taken off or let me know if you want me to do it by trade. Make sure you bump up your guys as much as possible or we are going to be hurting, in particular in the secondary, looks like we are going to take a hit starting FBG there for a game or two.

The Duff Man said:
If you make a new player DON'T JOIN A TEAM I will invite you.

I put out a few trade offers, no reply. I assume CPU processes trade offers overnight or something.
Click to expand...
(HULK) (SMASH)I have 4 other offers though!

Best offer is 60K w/ a 20K bonus.

Larry offered me a paltry 18K w/ a 1K signing bonus. Weak.

Hopefully the Detroit Footballguys will honor our verbal agreement and put an offer out for me, and have enough class to at least offer market value.

I will be the premier speed rusher in this league. When people talk about sacks, they'll talk about (HULK)(SMASH). My picture will be on sacks of potatoes and in sack races. When playing against my team, opposing QBs will put an extra pad on their back. O-line men fear me.

The Duff Man, I will be rolling up a DE once I get me some points from the referrals. Hold a spot open for a fast QB killer.

 
Offer out to Hulk. $25.7. On the all FBG team I am starting out with market value for everyone, then I will bump up everyone once I find out how much money we have leftover.

You will note my QB salary, $11.4. I am paying him a Lvl 1 salary, even though I bumped him up afterward.

 
For those that joined Detroit, there is good strategy discussion on our league forum. We will all want to synchronize our player strategies before tomorrow's game.

Accepted. I wanted to play for a FBG (even though I had 2 offers more than twice that).You'll see I already made your "top player threats" list!
 
just noticed the individual tactics page

Offensive Tactics

Ball Carrying

Running Style

Elusive: Try to avoid tackles altogether Power: Power straight ahead and don't bother to avoid tackles much Combo: Somewhere in the middle between elusive and power

Defensive Tactics

Tackling

Tackling Style

Power: Attempt to force fumbles, but miss more tackles Balanced: Balance between forcing fumbles and making tackles Wrap-Up: Great chance of making tackles, but very low chance of causing fumbles

Defensive Focus

Play Type Focus

Pass: Bonus to reading pass plays, fooled by run plays more easily Run: Bonus to reading run plays, fooled by pass plays more easily Balanced: No bonus or penalty

Pass Coverage

Man Coverage Distance

Close: Stick to your man like glue, if you can Medium: stay a couple yards back so you don't get beat deep Far: Keep about a 5 yard cushion between you and your man

Coverage Style

Loose: Play it safe and try not to get beat Medium: Go for the interception only if you have help over the top Aggressive: Go for the interception frequently, even if you might get beat

so sweet.

team message board is very nice imo. nice job on organization.

 
(HULK)(PUNT) has been created and is now available to play.

I'll going to specialize as a blocking FB.

It looks like we still have CPU RBs. We'll have to find a stud to put back there.

 
Chase Tascore

Sign my 6'1" 215 lb HB.

Larry_boy, just offer me the going rate. I don't have the points to boost him so no point in paying heavily.

Just found an old gift card with $5 still on it, and bumped up to level 4 LB. :thumbup:

BTW, when I level up, I just got 10 skill points. Does that seem like very many? I thought it would be more.

I'll make a RB then, I'll have enough FP for a level 2 boost.

Champ is a Lvl 1 FBG, just haven't plugged him in yet. I think maybe RBBC unless we use a stud.
Click to expand...
Either that or I can sign with Larry_boys team. My RB and Champs aren't full time studs yet, not close so regardless we are going to be in a RBBC. I just don't want us to stay that way next season.
 
Just remade my Free Safety: PsychoMan McNally

I created and retired him several times until most of his basic stats started off higher in skills that were more important to a FS.

GDB Paypal. My $$ hasn't cleared yet, so I can't level up anymore until it does.

I'll also create another player since I'll have the funds. I will take coach's recommendations on what kind of player to create...

Ok, rerolled as a WR. 6'2" 196lbsChase Stonehands

 
For those that haven't yet checked the Detroit FBG board. I am going to access where we are at this afternoon with $ and send everyone a new contract with pay increase so we can train better. It looks like I will have a couple hundred thousand to distribute. The alternative is to install more seats in the stadium. Go to Forums, look at the bottom for our team board.
