Honestly, if you'd care to "try out", I wouldn't mind scrimmaging with you some time (though, if I'm remembering my own Madden score, I'm pretty sure I was at like 540 with a 17-7 record recently...so 600 is pretty damn good). We're definitely not against having good people here, but like I said...if you're head and shoulders above the rest of the league, it turns into a waste of time for everyone else. Go rip Doom's brother a new one! Do it! Do it! Do it! lol

I played my first game in the other league and Og whitewidow whooped me. I don't know if that gives you a better idea of my skill level?

I haven't watched wrestling in years, and I honestly haven't felt that there has been anyone too entertaining since The Rock left (though, now that he's "back", we'll see where it goes). And really, as the game points out, wrestling was at its pinnacle in the late 90s/early 2000s when WWE and WCW were going head to head. WWE 13 does a great job of capturing that. I just got the game a few days ago and just started playing through the Attitude Era, and it's great. Reliving those awesome matches and trying to recreate their big moments is fun as hell. And THQ bringing back a lot of the wrestlers from that era (not to mention ones you can download and share) just brings so much to the game. I was really big into the nWo, so being able to download Hogan and Scott Hall (Kevin Nash is already in the game) and all the others is really great. To me, it's like what 2K did with NBA 2K11/2K12. It's kinda feels like playing an old game with all the people you remember from your childhood...but with the luxury of modern video game hardware. Not only is it a good game, but it has that nostalgia appeal as well.

Yea well that I what I thought as well. Remember I asked about NHL 13 and a lot of people from the forums were saying it was nowhere near what it has been in the past. I decided to take it back and was going to get WWE 13 because like you I was a pretty big fan of the NWO (btw awesome rise and fall documfil on it on Netflix now that tells the whole story) but when I went to Wal Mart to trade it I literally had WWE in my hand when my wife was like "ohh look Far Cry 3 and I heard it got amazing reviews" haha so I switched them. I definitely don't regret it as Far Cry is freaking amazing but am still debating on getting it. I asked her a few days later why she quasi persuaded me to switch and she said she couldn't see me playing WWE as much and as intently as far cry. Surprisingly compelling argument actually.

Like I said next bonus check though I may snag WWE. How's multiplayer? Lol

If you think it's harsh, it's supposed to be. No excuses anymore. New Strike Policy (in effect as of now) Anyone who does something that is against league policy as stated in the OP, or does something that is deemed excessively dickish will receive a strike. Punishment will begin after the second strike and will double with each offence. Punishment will be as follows: 2 strikes = 1 game suspension 3 strikes = 2 game suspension 4 strikes = 4 game suspension 5 strikes = 8 game suspension 6 strikes = 1 season suspension (and you probably don't want to come back) Strikes are permanent and carry over from season to season. Basically, you get one freebie and after that, you have to pay the piper. The consequences may seem stiff, but I firmly believe that it is not that difficult to play the game with respect and decency. If it's something you have to actively think about, then you might want to re-evaluate some things.

this isnt to bad ive never heard any issues on me about being a dick. but i also try my hardest not to be a douche when playing the game. thread wise i mighth ave a few striked lol but im not the only one.

I'd like to check the teams out but can't unless I'm in the league from looks of it. Panthers sound like a lot of work.

Chargers are the only team open currently. They are pretty much untouched, Rivers, Gates, Matthews, etc.

Does anyone know how to accept trades on the website? Do you still have to be on at the same time? Or can it be accepted anytime?

So the colts and Panthers are taken...Well, hopefully I get a pm from a commish

hey n8 noticed the colts info was empty on the op grabsed his info for u from the official league

Colts | neworlbush25 | neworlbush25 | EST | Most weekday nights, wednesday during the day, mornings till 10, weekends by appointment

Great. We advanced and I just put in madden and was gonna wait for jza.ing people just need their advancement so quick. ing have some patience.

There were how many days to get the game in? Be glad the deadline isn't like it is in the other league, we would have advanced the minute the bears/skins game was done. n8 if anything is a very easy going commish that tends to let people that didn't bother scheduling games until the last minute to get them in.

I'll take Chargers if their still open.

It can be accepted any time.

Doc, I'm going to send you that trade. You can accept through the website.

Great, nice to have that already handled. Just disregard what I said in the PM (well, other than reading through the rules). I'll get your invite sent out sometime today. Welcome to the league!

Yeah, isn't it really weird (though typical of EA) that some things actually work better on the website (trades, being able to cut Ty Warren) even though the website is a complete piece of shit and doesn't allow really basic things (drafting, commish being able to alter rosters, putting people on autopilot)? It's like they just threw a bunch of random ideas together and published it as they went along.
