jza, your sig is brilliant. That was my favorite moment of 2012 sports, by far.

If injuries are turned off, simulating is fine to me. But if injuries are on, i'd like to play them so i could avoid having my starters play the entire preseason game(i believe there is a glitch where if the game is simulated it plays your starters the entire time).

if anyone wants to play a game or two, i'll be on until around 6pm eastern.

The game auto subs out starters after the first quarter.

Only if you play the game. If you check the stats on simulated games, it only shows your starters as being played. maybe they fixed it in the update, i'll check now.

Oh I never simmed games.

Yeah, that's why if we plan on simming through the preseason, i believe that injuries should be turned off. And i just tested it with a new online franchise and it's still the same for me, Rodgers was 23/30 and the backup qb's didn't throw any passes.

It was pretty awesome. All it needed was Connery saying "You're the man now dog!" to make it perfect.

That's what we plan to do in the other league. I'm actually going to turn them off altogether for the preseason if it's allowed. It might be a bit unrealistic, but I don't think anybody wants to get derailed by injuries in a preseason game.

i won't be available this weekend to play, but early next week is good if were starting friday

If most people want injuries turned off and the option of allowing the CPU to play their preseason game for them, I guess we can do that...ONLY if the game really doesn't sub as they should for a preseason game. To me, that would have to be the sticking point since just the chance of a preseason injury is the same as the chance of a regular season injury. So, to say one is more "unfair" than the other is kind of hypocritical. But if it's a matter of the game functioning properly, then yeah, we have to adjust.

Apparently EA is running things on "Valve time" these days.

If the league is up Friday, I may not be able to accept the invite immediately due to work. Should have things ready by Saturday evening though.

heads up

Played a few games with the Browns last night. Man they're terrible. Lol.

Brandon Weeden is actually a hell of a QB tho, he can make every throw and is pretty accurate. I can't get my run game started with Trent Richardson at all tho, going to have to figure that out. Josh Cribbs has been the standout player for me. Ben Watson drops every single pass I throw to him, even while wide open.

I also noticed a lot of players use the Ravens online, that might be the reason my run game can't get started also.

I had an overtime thriller against a guy using the Cowboys. He missed three kicks in the game including a 51 yarder as time expired in regulation and a 50 yarder in overtime after I turned the ball over on an interception. Both kicks would've won it for him. I eventually won with a 38 yard kick.

I'll be availablle tonite if anyone wants to get a scrimmage in against the Texans. Message me on here so I'll get the email on my phone.

Xbl is Docb9110

Had another thriller against the Cowboys earlier today. Going to go on now and try to get a couple games in. Having a lot of fun playing online this year. Even if I am using the Browns. Lol

Anyone else feel like we should start doing a check in to find out who still doesn't have the game or who has stopped coming to the forum? I'd hate to see everyone get excited about starting the league this weekend just to wait two more weeks for everyone to start signing up._
