Madden 13 Official CAG League - On Hiatus. See you in August for Madden 25!

So we're waiting on 2 sim games and a game against the Cpu, in which the owner has shown no intent on playing the game? The last time sprice even posted was to state he was frustrated with the game and he wouldnt be replaying his previous weeks game. Just seems weird that out of all the times there could have been a delay, a week with only an unscheduled cpu game is holding us up.

thats fine with me im in no hurry i was just wondering why it was getting held up is all but it seems yall will do what you want. i have my game scheduled so no biggy for me.
 
[quote name='siradam134']Because the Deadline is Friday NIGHT. nowhere did anyone say 8pm, or 9pm is the deadline.[/QUOTE]



i understand that but we never wait for unscheduled games. im not trying to start anything but im sure some games could of got played tonight, but your right sorry for even saying anything. off to bed have a good night fellas.

For you to pretend this is the policy, is pretty ridiculous. Name one other time we waited for unscheduled games to get played, especially a game against a cpu team? Looks like all that waiting paid off and just as many games were played as were played at 9.

This sourpuss attitude benefits nobody. I've come to expect better from you to be honest.

If not advancing earlier tonight causes any scheduling issues, we will happily extend the deadline until Monday.

I'm just curious as to why all of a sudden at the end of the third season, everything is changed from how we have normally gone about doing things. There is not a single other instance of where this has occurred.

I'm curious why it is such a big deal to you. You're making mountains out of mole hills. Of all the things to adopt an attitude about, this seems like a seriously strange choice.

This personally did affect me. This was easily the easiest day for me to play this game, and instead of doing it during a normal hour I waited and then continued to wait so I could get this game in. So yeah it's a little upsetting when for no reason advance was delayed. If there was an actual reason that could be presented, then fine. But at this point, no reason has been provided.
 
We advance a few hours later than normal and suddenly "everything is changed." Honestly dude, who the hell pooped in your SpaghettiOs?

You're playing a CPU game, you don't even have someone to schedule with. I'm sorry you were mildly inconvenienced.

Lesson learned: Don't feed Chetty after midnight. :roll:

Answer this. If you or Fero would have had a game scheduled for week 16 lets say around 10:30, would advance have been delayed?

And what have I honestly done do deserve you talking down to me like that?

Our plans would have made no difference. Honestly dude, you're entering tinfoil hat territory here, I'm sorry that you don't see that.

Here's what you posted this afternoon:

[quote name='Chetty12']Im only available tonight, tomorrow and then during the afternoon on sunday. So unless he can make sunday afternoon(he said his trip is until the 9th so im guessing saturday is out of the question), i might ask to play the cpu.
[/QUOTE]

I'm sorry that neither fero or myself was able to correctly interpret this as "I NEED to play tonight or else I'm going to throw a hissy fit for the ages." Because it looks to me like you said you could play tonight... or tomorrow... or the day after tomorrow. If you'd let us know that tonight was the only night you could play, we would of course have expedited things. As it stands, there was no reason to feel there was any particular hurry.

Let me put it as plainly as possible: You're being ridiculous. You've built up so much goodwill as a valuable member of this league I have no idea why you'd risk squandering it on something this unfathomably trivial.

Not one thing ever before tonight that I can recall. Which is why I'm honestly floored to see this kind of silliness coming from you. Especially the old "if it affected you, things would be different" insinuation. Shame on you for that, dude, seriously.

Throwing a hissy fit for the ages? I believe I've said maybe 1 or 2 post just in reference to if there was any reason in particular advance was being delayed, a question that still has not been answered. But anyway, I deeply apologize to you and fero for any inconvenience that my complaint or "hissy fit" has created. I will be gone from your hair now.

But sure, we can pretend you were just politely asking questions if that works better for you.

You don't need to be gone from anyone's hair. Just bring back the super helpful, always pitching in version of Chetty. I like that guy. :D
 
If you absolutely need a reason, we can say that it's Friday night and fero was probably doing whatever things human beings do on Friday nights when they're not advancing Madden leagues.
 
Edit: What I originally brought up in this post doesn't make a difference, so i'm just editing out of here. i'm honestly done with this, if you want to discuss it more Bv then I feel it's something that should be discussed in a PM, no reason to fill the thread up with people slamming each other more than there already is..
 
Cards beat CPU to clinch at least a Bye in the NFC. Number 1 Seed will most likely be decided week 17 with Cards Vs Bucs.
 
[quote name='Chetty12']Like being on Madden in Connected Careers from at least 10 to when we advance? Now if someone else uses his Xbox to play Madden then I apologize for bringing it up ahead of time, but he was on which is most likely was the most infuriating part of the situation. Like I said, I certainly do apologize for bringing that up if someone else uses his xbox.[/QUOTE]

Jesus H. Christ dude, I was being sarcastic. I have no idea what fero was doing tonight, because I don't monitor his moment-to-moment activities (or stalk him on XBL). The league has also not pitched in to buy us super cool walkie-talkies or soup cans with string tied between them so we can always know what's going on with the other.

You're wrong about the most infuriating thing in this situation though. You want to know what it is? Your great big outsized sense of entitlement (which seems to have appeared out of the clear blue sky). The commissioners of this league spend hundreds of volunteer hours a year doing all the little things that make this league tick. That you would have the temerity to act injured (nay, "infuriated") because we advanced a few hours later than normal... once. It honestly passes understanding dude, it really does.

[quote name='Chetty12']if you want to discuss it more Bv then I feel it's something that should be discussed in a PM[/QUOTE]

It's a shame that didn't occur to you an hour ago while I was in bed getting ready to go to sleep.

Jags beat Bears 34-14!

Good game BillyMcDugal!

This is all setting up nicely for a huge Week 17 match up in Jacksonville for the second wild card spot!
 
Does anyone know what goes into our coach's legacy score?

My guy is pretty high in the list for only reaching one playoff game.

Guess ill cya at 5 MA, since I haven't heard back from you all day.
 
Tennessee Titans 24 - Denver Broncos 14

The Broncos come up short in their quest for a 1st round bye, suffering the road upset at the hands of the Titans. The Broncos were up 14-3 early, but the Titans fought back and completely dominated the 2nd half.

I don't know what it is, but Cool_i_AM seems to be one guy who absolutely has my number. He beat me in the fantasy league as well when I was undefeated. I'll say this: I'm damned relieved that I don't have to face this team in the playoffs.

Now likely staring at the 4 seed, the Broncos will likely be resting their starters next week against the Panthers.

gg Cool! Gotta figure out how you keep beating me so handily. :D

Gg BV wish I would have played with a little more consistence..but I'll be more prepared next yr.
 
[quote name='bvharris']Was he on the line or not?[/QUOTE]

when lined up on the left he was but then he would motion to the right and make it double on one side
and then run a slant route all the way across the field. Him and staticz uses the same playbook and staticz didnt put bowe there. Im guessing they use the same playbook because they run the same counter play

then put richardson at FB also

the ravens went into the game with a gameplan to stop platt and do so. he was completely non-effective for 3 straight q. 6 catches for only 93

If you played like you play against me every week, you'll make the playoffs no problem.

Yeah I was unsure what was happening to be honest. In that formation, I changed it to strong slot putting Platt just beside the TE on the line. I know I did not put him at TE because I know it is impossible to substitute a WR into the TE position.

As far as Richardson goes, I did line him up at FB once with a double RB set. Is that not allowed? If not, I apologize as I did not think it was an issue.

I have been trying to balance my offense more the last few week as I try and find a running game that can work. So for me, I was simply not targeting him as much as usual. I have no idea how I can never break off a big run against you augmog since you are always sending the house up the middle. I also have no idea what defensive formation you run on the majority of your plays but I simply have no clue what it is. Your entire defense except the safeties practically line up on the line. Its just strange.
 
Dolphins over Jets 21-17.

Dolphins Offense: 265 Passing Yards, 1 TD / 61 Rushing Yards, 2 TD
Jets Offense: 175 Passing Yards, 2 TD / 15 Rushing Yards

Dolphins Defense: 2 Sacks, 5 Interceptions, 6 Tackle for Loss
Jets Defense: 7 Sacks (4 for Whitney Mercilus), 2 Interceptions,15 Tackles for Loss (dude was in the backfield faster than Tannehill could grab the ball from his center, so impressive.), 1 Forced Fumble, 1 Fumble Recovery

Incredible game, had me on the edge of my seat(and my emotions going up and down) the whole game.

GG uber.
