Who is up for it?


Boise State - BroncoFan78
Cincinnati -
Houston - UHcougars
Louisville -
Memphis - UofMTigerFan
Rutgers - NJRedMan
San Diego State - PoiseState
SMU - UCFKnightfan08
Temple -
Uconn -
UCF - TampaKnight
USF -
Navy-
BYU/AFA/Fresno State -

So here are The Rules:

Difficulty: All-American
Recruiting Difficulty: Varsity
Sliders: Default
Rosters: TBD (likely FAIRDALE KINGS once released)
Quarters: 8 min
Timesavers: On
Custom Playbooks: Off
Coaching Contracts: Off


A few additional rules to keep this thing as close to SIM as possible, which is what I think most folks are looking for (myself included). My personal preference is to play both vs User and vs CPU games.

User vs User Games:

No Cheese, as they say. Which means: No running the same defensive play over and over and over. Same goes for offense. I tend to think these things work themselves out in game, as opponents adjust, but no cheese seems to be a common rule. If you do cheese, see punishments below. Also, if you have other ideas about what no cheese means, please post them.

User vs Computer Games:
If you are up by more then 14 punt the ball or kick a field goal.
Do not cheese. If you are up 28 in the 4th qtr you must put your 2nd string in. (need to see stats for these kids)

Restarts:
You are allowed 1 "mulligan" if you will a year. Meaning you can restart any game (other than user vs user).

Punishments:
First offender - Star QB will be benched for 1 game
Second offense - Star QB and RB will be benched for 1 game
Third offense - Coach is put on a 5 game ban
There is no fourth offense - you are just booted.

Yes the punishments are harsh, but the idea is that they're never supposed to be handed out.

Additional Notes:

- My XBOX Live handle is ATLSRT, I will send out friend invites to all those who have given me their handle this morning.

- Still waiting for named/ updated rosters to come out before starting the league. Target start date is Monday, July 23, 2012.

- If you have something you'd like to add or subtract from the rules, feel free to voice your opinion.

- One thing I did notice in creating a practice online dynasty with the new Big East is that it appears we are forced into a 9 game conference schedule. Don't think there is anything we can do about that, but at least we'll all play vs Users more.

- Assuming only 3 games OOC, please post the teams that you would prefer to play OOC and I will do my best to get them on your schedule. It might not be a bad idea to throw out 5 or so, in case some of the teams you'd like to play are not available on the weeks that you have open.

Remember, ATLSRT = BroncoFan78.

I'm interested. how often would i have to play and how long would it last do you think

I would prefer someone else be the commissioner and we all make a collective decision once we get enough members.

Interested.

You can be Boise if you want to. I will rep the Aztecs if we do not get a SDSU player.

You started the post about an Xbox league so you'd probably get first dibs. If you don't want them though I'll gladly play with them. Or we could find some way to Internet-flip for it? Haha

I have to buy the game but i'd love to play with whatever team is left over. Since I didn't go to Rutgers I wouldn't want to take them from an alum.

The game comes out tomorrow so we can pick a date in the future to start so everyone can get some practice in.

im in for houston

So lets get a list together then. One design option we need to figure out is total teams. Do we want to guess who 14 might be and add them or just go with the 2013 league configuration because we know who those schools are? For now I'll just add the 2013 schools:

Boise State - BroncoFan78*
Cincinnati -
Houston - UHcougars
Louisville -
Memphis - UofMTigerFan
Rutgers - NJRedMan
San Diego State - PoiseState*
SMU -
Temple -
Uconn -
UCF - TampaKnight
USF -

I would take Memphis. I know..I know

I can take UCF. You have my Gamertag, Poise. =P

List updated to reflect the new commits.

I can take commissioner duties as well. Similar to the PS3 league, we'll aim to advance two game weeks per actual week. If anyone has a preference for rosters to use, feel free to throw out suggestions, otherwise I'll go with Fairdale Kings when it becomes available (usually about 2 weeks after release). The league will start shortly afterwards.

I like the two week start date. This will give us time to build a league and all get a copy. There is a poster on BroncoCountry who sells lists for NCAA and was advertising last week. 4.99 I think.

I will only take SDSU if NO AZTEC fan wants to play on the league.


Everyone send you gamer tags to BroncoFan78

I'll play with Cincy or SMU since UCF is taken.

My gamer tag is JoeUCF2009

My Memphis gamertag is TigerFanBritt

Do Not Pay for rosters. Operation sports will have it for free by Thursday or Friday

I sent you a PM about joining.

Bought the game this evening. Very impressive. I buy the game every other year (alternating with Madden) and this is my first taste of the conference realignment function. Worth the $60 right there, IMO. Freakin' awesome.

I'm too cheap to buy the Live subscription so I unfortunately can't partake in this dynasty with you all, but I agree with TigerFan - don't ever buy a roster file. Ever. The folks on OS do a spectacular job and it'll be available by Thursday at the latest.

Replied to your PM sir.

So is everybody good with setting this thing up with the 2013 teams (no Pitt or Cuse) or do we want to add Navy and guess at a 14th? I'm inclined to not guess at 14 (although if forced I'd guess BYU), but I would like to have Navy involved. Help me out with some input on this one guys?
