I think they were put cross conference in order to not play the people in your own conference prior to the season in a non private game. Yes.



Which was in response to this.

since they wouldn't be limited to playing the small pool of teams they have now (the other conference of their league) i don't think scheduling would be a problem. the other teams that wouldn't have any preseason games are the owners who don't care enough to use those scrims.



We don't play teams in our own conference for preseason for a reason.

so far, you havent understood what the words ADD or ENTIRE mean. i'm fine with people disagreeing with me. notice that i dont have any issues with any one else. but its idiots that insist on disagreeing when they dont even understand the OP that I have issues with.

You argue with me because you are trolling. I have already clarified myself. But that is besides the point. Because I am bored right now.

The entire concept around preseason is to play the teams in the other conference. Either you run into a situation like say in WL where everyone could possibly face the Chicago Hedgehogs and the Hedgehogs end up with 31 preseason games or you end up with the same situation as you presented in the OP. First come, first serve and someone ends up facing a CPU team.


i doubt it would be needed at WL or Pro level. But for the other 68 leagues, the preseason games are too often a waste. the biggest problem with GLB continues to be the mentality is all about having thing work right for just the top 5% of 73 different leagues. does sound like that will be fixed in GLB2.

I was about to say that as well, but then I remembered these are all lolsuggestions now... so I digressed

And damm, can you tell someone in this thread is relentlessly bored?
Note they are probably not even posting about anything relating to the OP anymore, just rambling about themselves

I get what you are saying. And I agree with Shocks that I would like them to be private games if you could just schedule anyone for them. Being cross conference it is likely you aren't going to play them in any meaningful games besides a possible week 1 matchup (which i hate when it happens like that) or day 39/40.

and this has what exactly to do with the OP? he's talking about making games useful and you blathering on about making them private which isnt even part of the OP.

If you don't understand than maybe you need to stop talking to people about their reading comprehension....

if you're worried about them being private or not private or revealing secret stuff then you could either NOT play the games at all or do whatever you do now in public games (use a different AI or whatever).

The suggestion is just about NOT having to play 3 or 4 worthless CPU teams.

some people want the preseason games to test things in a meaningful way.

i'm not the one that again went off topic. you seem to think that since you are a mod that you can change the OP to whatever you want. he made a very specific OP and YOU went off topic.

Right. Except the preseason games are not private. They are public scheduled games by GLB. Which is why it makes sense for cross conference games. Your suggestion would be making the preseason just free insta scrims. Which I am fine with as long as they aren't public.

At this point we really don't even need a preseason game at all though considering the game isn't changing.
