CAGLS: Madden 13 Gentlemen's League - We Finished! Thanks for Playing!

Following up on a post I made a couple weeks ago...

I bought Madden yesterday during Amazon's lightning deal and should have the game early next week. Looking at the OP it seems the Bucs are open right now so if they are still open when I get the game I'd like to take them (dont think I would have the game in time for their matchup this week), but if somebody else who has the game comes along before that (or, since I looked at the OP again it looks like there is somebody else on the waiting list ahead of me) and wants them then I'll just sit on the waiting list for the next team. Posting my info below:

XBL: Cydoniac
Availability: Sunday: flexible during the day till about 10:30 PM EST. Monday-Thursday:5:30-10:30 EST. Friday: Anytime after 5:30 EST. Saturday: Generally flexible (but please PM to set up a specific time as thats usually when I make plans with the girlfriend or the family).

Cheers! Looking forward to getting back into this game. I havent played much Madden the last couple years but I used to be pretty decent...if nothing else I'll prove to be some fodder to the rest of you :D
 
Sorry guys. Been spending time with family all day today. Not only is this Thanksgiving weekend, but we'll be celebrating my daughter's first birthday while folks are here as well. I'll be getting on in about an hour to switch the necessary people to auto pilot. Thanks for your patience!

N8, congrats on the kiddo turning 1. HAHA I went through that fiasco last month when my daughter turned 1. FUN HUH?

he never messages back well he never did for me the only reason i got ahold of him was because we were on at the same time and i sent him a few messages on XBL
 
[quote name='fsecreast']Was that the Chiefs playbook you were using? I'll have to take a look at that.

That's the first time I've been completely confused as to what the defense was doing. I mean, I burnt you for a couple big pass plays but that was only after I made some major adjustments and the majority of the time I was completely lost as to what coverage was going to be played.

I've been shut down on offense by some of the better GMs in here but I've always been able to use a few go-to plays. You shut all those down on me.

I think it also had to do with the fact that you controlled a defensive back most of the game. You had a huge pick on a WR screen play when I thought you were playing zone. That hasn't happened to me all season and I use that play at least a couple times a game.[/QUOTE]

Sorry I'm just responding but yes it was the chiefs play book..
 
Why would you have already scheduled the game without knowing for sure we'd advance lol? Im surprised so many of you guys expected it to go smoothly today.

Posted from a treadmill so sorry if I can't spell lol

P.S that quote was not about us it was about people like the colts and teams that dont sorry you thought i was talking about you.
 
[quote name='Blade3D']Aight it's cool, I'm not mad. I thought you were referring to me since I hadn't responded to you yet about playing our game.[/QUOTE]



haha no i can see now looking back were it looks like that my bad but i know your good about your games.
 
If everyone would have readied up like they were suppose to, then we wouldn't be dependent on N8 advancing us every time. Just saying. And since only half league has readied up, it's hard to just blame N8.
 
[quote name='Docb9110']That's funny Nate said he would advance us today not to mention the holiday was yesterday! Just sayin[/QUOTE]

And no one is mad or blaming him we are just anxious is all. Down boy! Lol
 
[quote name='Blade3D']Can you not advance from the website?[/QUOTE]


no u cant do shit from the website its the biggest piece on shit ea has ever but together the website last year was pretty good but this year they must have said fuck it
 
Just sucks I drove to my old place cause my Xbox and tv are still here expecting us to have advanced by now. So instead I have my car packed up with stuff and I'm sitting around wondering what to do.

I guess I'll take my Xbox with me. So sometime tonight or tomorrow. We can make plans after n8 advances, I don't have time to make them without knowing for sure when we will advance.

ok sounds good.
 
Sorry for the delay, guys. This holiday really kicked my ass. But we have now advanced to Week 15! Getting to the nitty gritty now. Should be some big games coming up! The deadline for this week will be 11/27.

Also, whoever plays the Colts, let me know if you get a response out of him. Kinda thinking he's on his last legs here.
 
We had the game scheduled for last night. He actually responded pretty quickly. I haven't been able to message him back yet but ill try right now to get a message to him and see what's up.
 
Ok so snakemaster said we could play this morning at 930 EST! I waited until nearly 10est and while waiting I sent 2 CAG pms and an XBL pm. At like 5 till 10 I get an invite to the game for us to play plus a CAG message! In the message he says "sorry was playing hitman and forgot!" I literally sent him the message to play at 930 at about 4-5 after 9. He forgot in 30 mins?

Then we start playing the game and in the 3rd quarter he isn't playing at all! The defense takes all the time to call the play (CPU had to call the play). They stop me and I punt it! The punt returned didnt fair catch it with 2 of my guys 4 yards away and he luckily held onto the ball. Then on 2 consecutive plays he gets a delay of game! Then when the third is about to be called he gets kicked for excessive grieving.

I tried to make it to where this guy didnt look as bad as everyone made him out to be but I am seriously upset! I wasted nearly an hour and a half of my Saturday morning trying to work with this guy then he just apparently set his controller down and lets it go? Then nothing in the way of a message or PM to appologize for whatever happened. He just disappeared and isn't online right now.

Permission to put this jackass on autopilot so I can play the CPU because I refuse to waste anymore time on him.
 
Browns defeat Redskins 23-16 in OT. What an unbelievable game.

Game is tied 10-10 at halftime. It stays that way until about 15 seconds left in the game. Redskins are close to FG range(may have even been in it), they run the ball presumably to get into better range and make it an easier kick. TJ Ward forces a fumble(2 on the game) and Buster Skrine picks it up and returns it 71 yards to go up 17-10 with 6 seconds left. I kick the ball, debated squibbing but said fuck it and kicked it normal. He gets tackled with about three seconds left. I send out my prevent defense, he throws a hail mary 67 yards, which is caught by Pierre Garcon while he's diving in the air and lands in the endzone.

You have to have seen this play to understand how ridiculous it was. There were about 4 defenders, and 3 of his receivers all running for this ball and it looked like it was overthrown. I figured it would sail over everyone's head but here comes Garcon DIVING from about the five yard line, catching the ball as he crosses the endzone. It was actually really close, and I was worried for the Redskins that they would rule it down at the 1.

We head into OT. I win the toss and receive the ball. Can't remember if Brady threw an INT or if I just ended up punting it but he gets the ball back. I don't remember how exactly it went down but I think he was close to FG range again and I forced another fumble(either Ward or D'qwell Jackson). I end up driving back down the field, helped by a huge catch and run with my FB(where he may have stepped out of bounds).
My FB then takes it in for a two yard score to win it.

Tom Brady, 0 TD, 4 INT. I won on the strength of my defense surprisingly. TJ Ward had two forced fumbles. D'Qwell Jackson had a forced fumble. Ninkovich and Sheard both had two sacks.

Great game to the Redskins.
