Good thing a DE with 3 sacks last season got an endorsement over Run-Around.

These being completely random doesn't make too much sense. I usually like the way bort implements things but he screwed the pooch on this one. I've never been a fan of randomness.

The awards are given out to those with a lot of fame. The DE has about 150 more fame than Run Around. The endorsements aren't borked. The way we accumulate fame is the problem. Rewards longevity over success.

fame is completely meaningless as it is implemented now. on our other team, our level 40 backup center has like 70 more fame than my level 40 starting ROLB who has been #1 or 2 on the team in sacks, tackles, hurries, forced fumbles for the past 4 seasons or so, and among the league leaders in these categories as well.

level is 99% of the equation which is beyond retarded, but it doesn't even make sense between players of the same level.

He doesn't have more fame. This was the one I was referring to : http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=958900 Which is actually an endorsement from BBB, even though SBD is in A. The DE who got it in A is on NBK, which have been promoted to AA.

I mean hell, look at our other team (TNT). Our 3rd backup TE got it who has less fame than the other 2 on the same team.... I really don't think it goes by fame.

From the way I under stand things is that every point of fame gives you one "ticket" in the lottery. More fame = More "tickets".

Yeah. There was about a 200 page thread on it this morning. I didn't read it all but it was funny. Beginning was like, "Bort, this is cool thanks!!!" and then the middle the guys started whining about how random it was and how it was going to be unfair, and how it would be exploited. Then Bort's announcement. Then everyone said "way to go Bort, you screwed up again!!!"

The people playing this game really crack me up sometimes. This guy can't catch a break and get some constructive criticism without getting pummeled!!!

That DE in question had an ass kick year on Special Teams.

That thread kept me up until 5:40 AM last night. It was fucking hysterical.

Yea i was reading through it and it is seriously flawed when 1 team has 9 of the positions endorsements. It will make a major gap in tiered teams in the league.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=102839
http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=52926

These are just the starters i went through. But doesn't it give them a clear advantage over anyone else who may have none or 1 of the endorsements?

Someone else mentioned handing 1 to each team... not a bad idea for fairness, but they will figure something out either way and we'll all live with it.

strange.
if the real NFL works like this, John Kitna might have a blobkbuster endorsement.
