The Super Plate

Danger_dave1

So the play offs are nearly upon us. Now we have a good few new people who've never played the play off rules of 10 mins or have been in a win a game or your done situation.

I propose when the play offs starts we have a Plate competition for teams that don't make it into the play offs. Have it on the same times as the franchise's play offs.

So people like the Rams, Browns, Raiders, Lions, Chargers, redskins, Giants, Eagles, Seahawks. Can experience 10 mins quarters and a play off feel. Plus they get to win something at the end as well. ( I know some of these teams have been to the play offs before)

Thoughts ?

Seems to follow the raiders around I'm not really happy with how you played the game constant draw plays and only six passes all but one where screen passes you went for it on forth down and never told me I don't really mind that I lost that's not the issue just looking for a bit of sportsmanship

I never went for it on fourth down. Is this going for it incident when I went for a TD pass at the end of the first half when Madden suggested a FG?

Nice Idea Dave

Do we get a bowl? I'm guessing we will have to use real teams, Will we go on draft order to pick them? as opposed to first come first served!

Raoul

We will have to use real teams. So we could have a draft whereby the worst finished team in the league gets first pick of real teams. Do you propose a straight knock out Dave?

Just on this, do we have any sort of rule in place or guideline suggesting how many passes should be attempted in a game?

Not realy, sure the Packers won today and they never ran the ball at all

Whatever works, if you've a great run game then use it

You can be like the 00 Ravens and Trent Dilfer :pac:

I like the idea of this Gives us all more gametime

Danger_dave1

I'll post up the profile for this. We'll use the Boards Community, Ill ask Santry to up it to 10 mins when the plate starts.

Start time looks like around 16th of April. You will get 2/3 days to play your game max. It will be roughly 8 people so quarter final style. If there's an odd number of players. Ill give people with the worst regular season record a bye from first round

Draft for teams will be worst record picks first until best record in regular season pick's last. Everyone will get a good team.

Ill post up what you need to record and post up as a result for the games. If any of you have played in the IG PFL then you'll know exactly what you'll need to post up if not .... watch this space :cool:

I also think this format or with a short regular season would be best to start for a PS3 league.

Great idea Dave.

POST-GAME

Reporting Results:
This is the responsibility of the winning team's Coach and should be posted within 24 hours of the game.
The final result should be posted in the PFL Results forum. The title of the post should include the week number, coaches’ name, teams and the score
e.g. Wk1 : Packers (Rigglar) 10 @ Jets (Berty44) 24
Please also add the game stats as explained below. These should be added by the winner of the game, not the home team. Match reports are encouraged, but not mandatory.

Reporting Stats: Stats are collected manually and reported in your result post. These stats should be recorded by the winning team, this is not optional. Serial offenders will forfeit their right to a playoff berth.

At the moment it looks as if there will be 10 people playing it

Right so the format will go like this



The Draft will take play next Sunday at 9pm. The team with the worst regular season in The Boards Franchise will get first pick in the Super Plate. So example Nerd09 as the redskins Gm would get first pick. He may pick The Green Bay Packers. Next up is pudsy who is Texans GM, He would have second pick in the draft and may pick the New England Patriots and so on.

Also the 2 worst records will get a bye from the first round of matches. This competition is about improving your play and for New people. Hence why they get the bye

Ill put up the order when it becomes clear in week 17 hows it going. Considering nearly all the play off spots are going to go to the wire we'll have to wait till next week

Good point here, we need people to say whether they are playing or not. Don't want to just assume they will.

I will play too if I don't beat linebacker.
