Just wondering the reasoning? It is a revenue generator. I would be surprised if it was to reduce server load...

Ideas?

The servers are barely handling what we have going on right now.

It may have something to do with the fact that they limit who you can quick scrim to within a certain range in the ladder rankings? Total guess.

No - I wasn't aware of the rule and played 8 games this morning evaluating some different QB builds. Now I get a message "only 8 per day" - so apparently has nothing to do with opponent or lolbar range or ladder rankings or anything else.

Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if this was a carry over from the testing days just to avoid people running 50+ scrimmages a day during testing (since it would have been free).

Not a huge deal - just might be worth changing so Bort and DD could make a few extra nickels occasionally.

That's pretty much what it is.

Otherwise people could just go through and eat up all time slots for scrims or something dumb, and nobody else could send scrims. Having a bunch of servers and increasing the number of time slots "just in case" doesn't seem reasonable.

Well - can you quickly program me to get 10 scrimms a day....just for today?

- They are fun to watch
- especially fun with new players on the team
- fun to tweak o/d and see how it plays out

He knows I'm game planning for our match up next week so he's putting out a ton of film for my review.

true dat. If I run the same offense and the same defense 20 games in a row - you'll have no clue WHICH offense and defense I'll be running.
