Chicagopax, I know you hate our team but i wanted to say your doing a great job!

P.S. The players on my acct are shared between myself, my father and brother. We have been shaking up our roster to allow others to start on the team to help keep the peace.

The only reason I dont like you guys is because like you say it's all between one family, there isnt the risk that everyone else has of a player going inactive, being negligent, bitching about a contract that the rest of the teams have, im not going to discredit you guys in the power standings in anyway however.

I edited the player of the week, thats strictly on a nomination basis, and if no one is nominating people, its going to be guaranteed a player from my game/squad. I don't have that much time to look through 16 games and found out who is the best.

great job chicago. very cool!

That seems weird... you're allowed to have 3 different accounts on the same IP address, so why wouldn't you just do that? It would make everyone a lot less suspicious. It seems more likely that it's just one person. Having the 3 separate accounts would also get you more flex points... not that you appear to be running out any time soon.

In general, people aren't going to like your team for two reasons: 1) you clearly spent a whole lot of money on it, which is your right, but takes the fun out for a lot of us that don't have the means to spend so much on an online game, and 2) your team is very good. People don't like teams that dominate so much.

That being said, you used all your boosts early, which is an interesting strategy. Mathematically, you've taken a lot of XP away from your players. It's great for getting you guys to the playoffs, but once your there, and all the other teams have boosted, it'll be a free for all... so good luck with that.

Then he dosnt have to spread the credit card around 3 accounts?

Easier to manage?

Coming to the defense of my owner, most of the players he made are no longer starters and are being replaced by independent players. IE me. He traded for my QB and I got a couple of his players on one of my teams.

Well we all live in the same house, well did anyway. My brother went back to Iraq, thats one reason i opened the team up. I dont have time to manage his players (most on the acct) and run the team. I got no beef with anyone, we play the game within the rule set. As for the created players well it got real boring waiting for the teams to be released. We had players play last season and seeing that almost 90% of the winning teams had MANY owner players on the team we chose to go with that strat until we find the right people to plug in.

Its always good to have a hated team in the league, looks like we filled that slot ;-)

Website looks good... just one quick hint regarding the playoff standings. Your formula for "games back" isn't correct. Half games only come into play if two teams have played a different amount of games, which will never be the case here. It's also the reason that standings in football almost never have "games back", because football seasons almost always have the same amount of games for every team, and the number of games is low.

If you want to include it however, your formula is just off by a factor of 2. Just multiply all of your current GB's by 2 and it'll be accurate. Here's the formula:

{(W1 - W) + (L - L1)} / 2

W1 = wins of the first place team, W = wins of the team being calculated
L1 = losses of the first place team, L = losses of the team being calculated

So for example:
The Death Valley Vipers are (4-0), meaning: {(4-4)+(0-0)}/2 = 0. They're 0 games behind because they're in first. The Samurai Warriors are (1-3), meaning {{4-1)+(3-0)}/2 = 3, so they're 3 games behind.

Sorry about all the math, and the nit-pickiness... i'm just a jerk econ major now in law school.
