I've got a bug ticket, submitted on April 4, 2014, which is now more than a year old. Anyone else got one that's been "pending" longer than that?

Bug Reported: It's the ol' "QB is afraid of the first down holographic stripe" play.

Hmm, I was going to say I have one from Jan 27, 2014, but it is now marked as Complete even though it was never resolved.

Nail in the Coffin has made my Punter stop kicking coffin corners

Description:

There should be an increase in the number of CCs and a decrease in the number of TBs, but this season when I started adding Nail in the Coffin VA I noticed that my punter (who used to have a very high success rate of punting it out within the 10) is now punting the ball out of bounds before the 20 and getting TBs (even when punting from a reasonably close range like 40 yards). I remember hearing other people having difficulties with this VA a couple of years ago, which prompted my own investigation. Perhaps when the VA is maxed out it works again, but from 1-9 points it has not worked at all.

Prior to this season I had no points in Nail in the Coffin. My stats for the last two seasons:

Season 33 - 120 punts, 13 TBs, 19 CCs, 14 in 10, 33 in 20.
Season 34 - 149 punts, 6 TBs, 18 CCs, 20 in 10, 33 in 20.

This Season

Season 35 - 99 punts, 11 TBs, 8 CCs, 8 in 10, 27 in 20.

I'm seeing a lot more punts like this:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2382937&pbp_id=6332296
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2382937&pbp_id=6333907

One would think that as nail in the coffin is being added my punts would be getting better, but the opposite is occuring. Maybe this could be tested in the offseason or on the testing server?

i was a bug mod how many years ago? and i'm betting that there are still pending tickets from those days. the "why didnt it follow my ai and punt on 4th down" comes to mind. there were over 400 unsolved cases back then of that. and being that i saw 2 or 3 more occurrences of it the past few seasons, i'm sure that it was never solved.

Bort, have Corndog rewrite the entire code, and arrange it properly. Then call it GLB special.

I think it would be fun to see more out of bound runs, and the dots going the opposite direction.

I reported that exact same thing as a bug on Aug 22, 2013, and they recoded it as "not a bug" :
http://glb.warriorgeneral.com/game/bug_ticket.pl?ticket_id=389
Furthermore, TimeTrial reported the same bug, which also was coded as "will_not_fix".
http://glb.warriorgeneral.com/game/bug_report.pl?report_id=21

Sadly, yours is "Pending" just because they don't even care enough to toss it aside.

Opening myself up to death threats here, but once mike rogers passed, and that other guy go canned there was nobody looking at them past me.... i marked a whole bunch as bugs but they never got touched. There were a couple that were posted, and brundog can vouch that were definitely resolved because they were exploits that could destroy the game. Most of the exploit type bugs went directly to euchrid via PM and what happened from there is beyond my control. The best way to point out bugs is to send in an actual support ticket, however, if it involves changing the way the sim is coded unfortunately i believe they will not be adjusting it.

There are a lot of tickets for visual things that were resolved over time when the website shifted, and when chat was causing issues. I could go through and close all of them, but that's not up to me, or ever up to a bugs mod to actually close them. That person is no longer employed by WGG. Ellisbell used to do some stuff too but i think shes long gone too. I still look though, i just cant do anything unless its an exploit or a cheat.

yeah, someone who knew him personally posted in these forums about it on the anniversary. Mike was an amazing person for this game, so many things positive things that happened here were because of him.
