Do you watch the games unfold by using play by play? Yes.
Do you watch the replays (Dots animation)? Only in analyzing previous games. Or if my CB/WR/LB crushes someones dreams(I would say my C as well, but even at level 26 he couldn't turn Bisquick into a Pancake).
In your opinion, what does this game resemble (Backyard football, pop warner, high school football, college football, NFL football)? Its like Madden Head Coach... with words and dots instead of really good graphics.
How long do you think you will still be interested in playing GLB as it is now? 1 or 2 more seasons. Some things have to change.
Add anything else: There are a few things I think need to change with this game for it to continue progressing.

One is recruiting. I really couldn't imagine having to recruit an entire team of players at this stage in the game. Lucky for me my team is composed of a lot of real life friends and friends from other MMOs. So I don't have to recruit much at all. But I pity teams that get gutted or have a bunch of people quit at once. The time and effort it takes to fill those slots is near impossible to stomach.

The other thing that bothers me, which goes hand in hand with the recruiting issue, is the fact that the majority of the USA Pro League is comprised of teams that are either Mods or season 1 Alpha testers. They get all the fame and glory, yet all they did was get here first. Its not that I care so much about prestige, but moreso the fact that the people who created this game and those who help moderate it don't have to deal with things like recruiting/gutting. Cause even if 5 of their level 29-30 starters retire, theres 5 more waiting to fill their slots. And it will always be that way. Until they get filtered out of that league 1 by 1 because they suck, or they retire. Bort speaks about the fact that he "does not want the rich getting richer". But what about the rich just staying really really rich?

Anyway, those are my few gripes.

Has the game improved to your liking since you started? Eh, not really.

What do you like most about the game? It's football...?

What do you like 2nd most about the game? Its not soccer...?

What do you dislike about the game?

Is the game getting better in your oppinion or has it climaxed? It can get better, but the necessary changes seem to be taking longer than the unnecessary ones

What would you like added to the game? Sportsmanship scores, playing above/below your level abilities. Better depth management and less plays required for max experience. Better offense vs defense balance.

What would you like removed from the game if anything? The ridiculous ease of run blocking.

Do you own a team? No

Do you watch the games unfold by using play by play? Not any more. Would be better if they had it show in the "replay" instead of just showing the outcome.

Do you watch the replays (Dots animation)? Some yes, not all of them. Just too laggy and slow loading sometimes.

In your opinion, what does this game resemble (Backyard football, pop warner, high school football, college football, NFL football)? High school.

Add anything else:
Well, its pretty straight forward. I want to make more players but it costs too much to make new players. (Therein lies the problem of this game. Costs too much to have more than one player and keep them boosted. Because if you don't boost he won't be competitive.)

Rate the game from 1-5 (5 being the best): 3.25

What season did you join? The last day of season 1

Has the game improved to your liking since you started? Yes

What do you like most about the game? N.H.H. Hustlers

What do you like 2nd most about the game? Some of the people on here, about half of my favorites (above and beyond the Hustlers) being in this division.

What do you dislike about the game? No system of revenue sharing. While not too big a deal yet, teams that miss out on home games season after season are priced out of being able to compete as equipment prices skyrocket and players gain more things to spend money on.

Is the game getting better in your opinion or has it climaxed? The addition of the AI, to me, was a /huge/ step forward. Adding more player options is almost guaranteed to make me think more highly of it too.

What would you like added to the game? More player options without pricing non-playoff teams out of competition for players.

What would you like removed from the game if anything? The ease of gutting a team

Do you own a team? No

Do you GM a team? Multiple

Do you have more than 1 player? Yes

Do you spend money on flex points? Yes

About how much have you spent on the game (optional)? Way too much.

How many average hrs do you spend on GLB a day? Used to spend 1.5-3 depending on when my teams were playing and the games. Now, multiple visits of 10-15 mins when I can borrow computer time until I can afford a new laptop - mine died a horrible death.

Grade the overall message board (A-F) - C, basic but functional

Grade the overall Mods (A-F) *No flaming just grade* -
Bort - B+ - he really tries too hard and wears too many hats. Having 1-2 admin responsible for investigating claims of gutting, etc. and a customer service person or two and letting him focus on his talents would likely get him an A.
DD - D- - 100% agreement with Ron2288

Grade the overall Admins (A-F) * No flaming just grade* - C+, improved after a couple recent changes.

Grade the overall Offensive aspect of the game (A-F)- C+

Grade the overall Defense aspect of the game (A-F)- C

Do you watch the games unfold by using play by play? Not anymore

Do you watch the replays (Dots animation)? My current computer that I can borrow blurs it too much to follow, which is making scouting a lot harder.

In your opinion, what does this game resemble (Backyard football, pop warner, high school football, college football, NFL football)? High school

How long do you think you will still be interested in playing GLB as it is now? As long as the Hustlers stay together I'll likely be here. I anticipate cutting way back on my # of teams and probably # of players though.
