Meh fun time is just a home for people with players. Their oline builds are worse for that plan than lost lounges.

And every other time we've played this season...

So it's sort of like a GLB2 charity?

Our argument has been pretty consistent actually.

#1. It's bad to make a change like this mid season.
#2. It's bad to make a change like this on game day.
#3. It's bad to make a change like this that isn't tested with community feedback.
#4. It's bad to make a change like this that doesn't address the problem.
#5. You could've banned GL QB Rollout Strong, GL HB Sweep and GL HB Slam and Yorick would not be as dismayed with that fix as we are with the one you made.
#6. Applying multiple changes all at once without testing and integration is bad.
#7. Screwing over paying "beta" customers is bad for business.

I think that about covers our points. Care to actually counter?


Corndog has to wait until ParaB00n responds for him.

Pretty much. I've already retired several players in order to accommodate people needing a team. Was better than that team sitting there as a CPU.

BTW, #7 is the worst of them.

You took our money. We built a team to play by the rules as they were. You changed the rules in a way that completely broke our team and offered us nothing in return nor any way for us to start playing by the new rules.

So, for the rest of the season, I'm going to do my best with an obviously gimped team because I'm not going to wreck the league we're in by going inactive. But after that, I am done.

Is this where I make the xavori claim that passing is fine because my teams all lose?

Demonstrating Corndog's flawed mechanics is a side benefit, no?

Did you ask one of your players to try and run it? Maybe they have more time to spend game planning for it?

Nobody has expressed any interest. But if there is someone out there wanting to try some stuff out I'm certainly open to the idea.

Actually, the tears of the team we beat today using the "fixed" QB Rollout would have been enough to sustain me.

The real irony is that what truly beat him was Corndog's changes that are letting me get away with running that stupid cow defense against pretty much everybody instead of just the very select few teams I thought it would work against when I was goofing with it in the offseason.

Oh, so, we have the answer to this thread. Corndog's going to nerf defense next.

People should be able to buy higher ranked teams than Rookie.

Remove GL formation outside of GL situations. Easiest fix available.

Best course of action would really be to return blocking to its previous level where nobody complained about it and it made sense, and make the goal line sets only callable within the opponents 20. It would really no longer decide games, since if you get within the opponents 20 you're probably going to be scoring anyway. Its pretty ridiculous how often o-line get revpancaked now, and how often I see my superstar lead blockers have a defender literally go right through them
