Ask to be put on the KRS depth chart.

Yeah, you should have high enough strength that you could be a decent KRS player. This is more of an issue with your manager then the game in general.

Yes, and you must always follow the GLB credo, "Kickers on good teams, Punters on poo teams."

My level 17 punter:


I found a *terrible* d-league team, and play for my slowbuild team. I've leveled very quickly, and got some RIDICULOUS amount of XP a few times.


As you can see, I waited to find a good d-league team, as well as a few weeks to sign to cap punting at level 2 (), and the boosts are the obvious string of training that drops off in the offseason...

Playing KRS is fine against weak teams to pick up XP, but what happens when Bort creates injuries? Do you want your punter to miss a game because he picked up a freak injury while doing KRS?

We need to propose a new game XP system for punters. I think it's justified because Punter is the only starter that can lose snaps a) if his team destroys a gutted team, b) when the kicker gets better and can make FGs from longer distances, c) if his team is trailing and needs to go for it on 4th down, d) when the offense turns over the ball with a fumble or INT.

My biggest problem with the current system is that if your team plays a competitive game you might only get 2 punts, and that translates into 22 XP, less than a day of training. Get one punt in you get 11 XP. I'd like to see more XP for your first few punts, and less XP the more you play. So something like this.

Punts => XP
1 => 25
2 => 50
3 => 65
4 => 80
5 => 95
6+=>100

Share your comments, and if we can get some sort of consensus I can post it in the suggestions forum and see if we can get something done about it.

I really doubt anyone is going to argue with you on this. It's hard to find a reason why punters have such a difficult time getting xp compared to every other position in the game.

Ok, I'll be making a suggestion in the suggestions forum, and would appreciate guys with punters that want something done about this XP thing post in it and show some support, so maybe we can have things a little easier next season.

A while ago, someone suggested that punters should be the holder on field goals and XPs. Everyone seeemed to like that suggestion but it then it kinda disappeared.

Here's the thread in the suggestions forum. If you think that this proposal would make the game better for punters while not making it worse for anyone else I'd appreciate it if you would show your support or add a comment to the thread below.

That sure would be nice since our kicker is on the field WAY more than my punter. I've gotten max XP twice this season. What I don't like is the big jump between 5 punts and 6. I get 40 if I punt 4 times, 48 for 5 punts, then 6+ is 100. Seems like they should be spread out a lot more, if nothing else giving 75 or so for 5 punts. I know I'm just spliting hair here (since I've only punted 5 or more times in 3 games this year lol), but still.

Of course, I'll gladly trade a couple hundred XP a year for my guy for a successful team.

To me that seems a little extreme, giving the punters an automatic 100 XP per game, but there seems to be a lot of support for it in the suggestions forum. Just go to the forums and add your voice to the thread and hopefully we can make the situation better than it is right now.

Here are both suggestions threads, if you have an opinion visit each of them and leave a comment.
