Yes, I'm slow. Please break it down for me. How could we have changed our tactics at halftime to not run up the score? What AI setting would have resulted in an "easy cruise" to victory?

But I'm done with this. As many people have pointed out, points scored is a tie-breaker for playoff seeding, so running up the score is a legitimate thing to do. So, even though winning 100-0 vs. say 50-0, wasn't our intent, I'm going to stop defending myself about it.

If you are doing your team tactics that kind of scares me but here I will take a shot at breaking it down for you.

under your tactics try reading this statement.

Auto Tactic Adjustment
If you set this option, the CPU will adjust your tactics for you on the fly based on how the game is going. Therefore, the gameplan will most likely NOT end up the same as what you set it to. If you want to stick to your gameplan more closely, disable this option entirely or turn the intensity down very low.

Now for you slow people again - If you are destroying a team such as 52-0 at half they will adjust your tactics so you don't continue your setting the same. So it will not come out and continue to throw the entire game hence our big victories around 30 passes per. If i am to guess you had your pass-rush set around 60-40 favoring pass and no adjust.

For Haha's here are my rankings to this date

1) Chicago (cant get better than undefeated)
2) New Brunswick (Huge depth)
3) Manhattan (Most Points scored in BBB 15) (might be wrong didnt add monday nights games)
4) Wala wala (Big time money man irons leading the way)
5) Lima (Flying undefeated under the radar)
6) New York (Great QB leading their team)
7) Rapid City (BIG TIME D but not enough Offense to propel them)
8) Michigan (people will underestimate them)
9 and 10 are tossups so feel free to insert your teams name here

Um, this looks like AFC vs NFC backwards. You are aware that the West has 2 undefeated teams and the East has one? Lima and Wala Wala behind teams with losses? What is this crap? Rushmore's "BIG TIME D" could manage to hold Wala Wala to a whole 33 points.

Serious question

So points scored as tie-breaker is only the championship game, cause doesn't head to head determine seeding in the playoffs. So for example if New Brunswick Scarlet Knights and us tied at 15-1 record they would have a better seed since they beat us right.

yes dvs and hawks i told you it was my own thoughts on how i think each team is doing. No offense the east is much stronger than the west. Do not take offense to my rankings. I do not see you trying to do anything so until you actually write something for people to read shut up. Maybe i should have put a disclaimer on my rankings. *DISCLAIMER* Retards might get upset over a game and get retard strong and put up avatars of guys with a really bad shirt and hat. Read at your own risk of having a good time. Beware of Dog. pfft. OOPS sorry i just saw i must have offended him because i did not put wala wala at #1. Shame that almost every player thinks their team is the best and cant be open to interpretation. Oh well.

If this keeps going I might have to start a BBB #15 talk "for grownups" thread.

Say you've got four teams tied 12-4, and everyone has beaten someone else. Then it goes to points scored.

That's not going to be a rare occurrence.

Thats a pretty big decision just to appease the opposing team. Turning the Auto Tactic Adjustment option on or off can actually have a pretty big effect on a game. It would be one thing if we were head coaches sitting on the side lines telling our starters to get in there and run up the score. But we're not. We have to set the strategy before hand and "hope" our team comes out on top.

Personally, I wouldn't dare take a chance on "easing up" on the offense just to come across "classy".

I agree. The arguing is making this thread not fun to lurk in. Wait a minute, what am I doing? *vanish* *lurk*

You know, personally I think people shouldn't even try to tell people how to run their team or play the game. Focus on your own damn team.

After some of my teammates passed on the link to this discussion, I have to say, this has been one of the funniest reads Ive ever had the pleasure of perusing. Calling a team cocky? An online rpg team? Seriously? Do you honestly think we lose any sleep over how this goes? Here's what it comes down to, even if we take out our starters, our subs are of the caliber that they could start on most teams in this league. Setting the auto adjust to high risks us losing our gameplan for absolutely no reason, which, as Morphius points, us could cost us against a good team. Do we try to demolish every team? Youre damn right we do and Id hope youre all trying to do the same, otherwise whats the point? Were not here trying to kiss our sisters, instead of taking home the prom queen, for those of you who have ever had a coach who used that analogy. The fact is we put a decent amount of effort into gameplanning, scouting etc. That gameplan clearly worked yesterday. It didn't work against Michigan earlier in the season. It happens. But, we're going to keep up the work and do our best to win this thing. Like I said, if you guys aren't trying to do the same thing, well, what's the point? Oh, and as far as being cocky? Cocky doesn't hurt a team so long as we don't change how we approach each game.

I hope you all enjoyed my rant because I wont be taking any questions.

I come to this thread daily for a few laughs. When you look at it this way, it's far easier to swallow.

Here is how the whole thing started in case you missed something. I commented on Rising Suns comments about getting blown even though he has tried to improve his team. I said a personal opinion that Scarlet Knights deliberatly destroyed his team and they (SK GM's) got way too bent out of shape over the comments. Since they are a little slow and didn't know what I was talking about tactics I along with some teammates tried to explain the tactics to them. What they do is their business I was just commenting on Rising Sun's comments. But the issue was pressed and I tried to explain what I was talking about. I was not telling them what to set how to set it ever, they obviously didn't know where we were coming from so we tried to break it down. But as stated earlier "JUST WIN BABY!!!"

I understand, it just seemed like you were trying to say a negative thing about us.

By the way, my player is the backup Quarterback for New Brunswick.

No I don't care what you do, I just was telling him that you guys overly pounded his team. But why would I criticize you guys when our only loss right now is to you guys? I was explaining that you could have not pounded them so bad but I don't think your Gm's or teammates got that. But you actually had a hell of a game. Even though it was really over before you even saw a snap :0
