    Now it's payback by taking the team of certain people who destroyed me during the last season :D

    Wait until the game and try out a few teams,with this new run mechanic you might change your mind

    Mikey, just to round back on this
    Player Draft Pick W L Played Div. W Div. L Con. W Con. L Playoff W Playoff L Qualify? Win Ratio
    SantryRed 23 28 4 32 10 2 21 3 4 2 Y 84.21%
    MikeyT086 24 44 4 48 18 0 22 3 1 2 Y 88.24%

    To put it simply (ignoring play offs for the moment)
    Ben could have won a max of 32 games, he won 28 (4 regular losses)
    You could have won a max of 48 games, you won 44 ( 4 regular losses)


    Ben won 3 more play off games than you, so in essence he is 1 win away from being equal (simply speaking) however you'd also have a better conference record so would pick after him

    Just find it odd that he's a way better player than I am and will be picking ahead of me. I should have thrown a few CPU games! :pac:

    I think this looks to be a case of you actually being punished for staying for three seasons. Would have thought that people who played the whole thing would of had priority. It was the only Reason I blundered through the last year anyway against all those CPU teams.

    Not the case, if mikey had lost loads of games this season he'd be picking higher but he didnt.

    Also, there needs to be some realism, 3 seasons playing 3 games in 14 days is a big commitment and sometimes for whatever reason you can't keep that up for a full year, 2 seasons is pretty good compromise.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Also using the fact Ben was only here for 2 seasons and Mikey for 3, ignoring mikeys play off run at the moment things would go out like this

    W L Played Div. W Div. L Con. W Con. L Pts. Scored Pts. Conceded Playoff W Playoff L Qualify? Win Ratio
    SantryRed 23 28 4 32 10 2 21 3 1008 546 4 2 Y 84.21%
    MikeyT086 3 Seasons 24 44 4 48 18 0 22 3 1637 641 1 2 Y 88.24%
    Mikey 2 Seasons 29 3 32 12 0 15 2 1080 423 1 1 88.24%


    while its not perfect, Ben would have to had won 2 more games in his regular seasons for him to be a "better" player and get a worse draft pick

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Titans should be around 78-80 I'd imagine


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭madalig12


    Pats and colts and Giants too high, fins, chiefs too low.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Colts arent too high I dont think/


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Is anyone doing any mock drafts this year? I was thinking of doing one, but there's a few new people I haven't played in the league since I left last year so don't really know their styles of play etc, and when I was going through it I got to around 5 or 6 picks in before I realised I hadn't got a clue :pac:

    Adrian I noticed you did one on the PFL forum, will you be doing one on Boards?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 16,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭adrian522


    Yeah, might give it a go once the order is known..

    Just posted on the PFL but that's ridiculous for the titans.

    They started m13 at 76 and they got a good Wr and massively revamped line along with an improved run D yet they go down a point.

    Hopefully once they smash the steelers in week one that will be rectified :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭madalig12


    Ravens and Raiders too high!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,731 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Lions 76 :(

    No fear of the Titans getting picked before my turn anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Berty44


    Or the Jets by the looks of things. They are really muck !


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    My only hope is after week 1,the Titans go up a notch or 2, will be interesting to see the ratings of the o-line


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,379 ✭✭✭davetherave


    I've just realised, I'll be out of the country and more than likely w/out Internet for the first two weeks in September. Is there a schedule of events or when and how is the team picking taking place? Would I be able send a list of 13 teams in my preferred order to someone. :o


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Ill stick it up later on Dave

    Revised draft order.
    I've taken into account whos not coming back next year, though still waiting on some replies.
    Also I've included the results of the Packers/Giants game, however it hasnt led to a change in draft position for either team.

    With the few drop outs, we'll have 8-12 CPU teams if we dont get replacements.

    On the plus side, my draft pick seems to be getting higher by the hour :pac:

    Would any of the PFL lads play, Heli? It would be a shame if we have so many CPU teams.
