Pretty much anything would be an upgrade, built this for 350 bucks going on 5 years ago.

I mean, I think there might be some kind of memory leak with my apache config or something, but the random crashes aren't a good sign.

I'll probably just pester Bort/DD for a new one.

And if we are only looking at stats (which is all anyone likes to do even though it literally makes no sense to only look at stats) 3 tackles % wise is notable. 15% increase in tackles isn't too bad.

All of those guys you listed are having better seasons this year than they ever had, just with a lot more missed tackles which mean they are getting there hands on RBs more.


Probably helps that they get gold SA's more than what Corndog did with the sim. You said SF's DTs looked really good against TB and I strongly disagree.

HOnestly I think I saw 1 play where they made a play...I've just been in full on complain mode the past few games since I've been getting my ass handed to me in the ladder.

Also, that whole DT having a free run on the QB before they can even get a pitch off is bullshit.


Just from todays game, on a 70 run block aware G, not bored enough to go through more.

Anyone else notice more botched handoff exchanges too? Would have to dig more for those, but had another today that was specifically odd when our QB was sitting at 90+ energy and confidence.

I haven't seen a botched handoff in anything above sophmore in a long ass time. Though just because your QB has 90+ energy and morale doesn't mean they can't happen.

Maybe we're just getting unlucky. The only reason I think that I thought I was noticing more of them was because they've just been at bad times. Probably only happen once or twice a game.

Just spin up a VM on Amazon or somewhere.

this...running is fine and give DTs some love. Para, you said Offense was way too strong at seasons start and now you complain about this here? you also complained about having 500yards game all the time, now you dont anymore and yet, you still complain

Hawaii is # 1 in the ladder so I am thinking they are balanced just fine

There's a lot of ways to think about that though with a specialized team (in this case QC is a specialized rushing team). I'm not sure where you're spending points now, but I assume your line and running backs are still pumping rushing attributes.

So, while you get better at one thing and other teams spread out their points out on defense, shouldn't you be getting better each season at what you do best?

I would think no. This is GLB2 not GLB. Balanced from the start, ya know?

running behind a practically full s* oline and with a S* hb. Bad example. Andes is the second best rushing team in seasoned and my backs have felt the drop in production. Look at bos production for days 1-31 and then compare 33 to 46 http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/player/26867 We faced more difficult competition for dys 1-31 compared to days 33-46

Just because he is specialized in running doesn't mean people don't have specialized run defenders. Defense has the ability to put in different sets against different formations. And when you buff all your power skills right away that is what makes you so much more powerful than the rest of the teams in the mid levels, but people eventually catch up. I mean it isn't like you are going to tell me that these specialized running teams still only have their power at 50 and are only getting better. No the only thing that is going to continue to make a difference from Journeyman on is adding speed with power/elusive or the other way around and the AP points going into SA's that flesh out the build a little more. But defenders are doing the same thing.
