    What was the score?

    I just realised I forgot to create the community with the sliders. From now on it will be compulsory for everyone to use it. The community is boardscup and the password is boards.

    Also for my group C rivals, I will be about after 7 tonight. Would love to get 2 or 3 games done tonight!

    If you want to win the competition you will have to play 6 games. The average rating of a team is 80. So 6 times 80 = 480. So you have to strategise how you play. You can gamble in group games and try and get through them with a poor team so you have good teams for the playoffs or you can play with very good teams in the group and gamble in the playoff. Or just play with average teams.

    Does that make sense?

    And you can't use the same team again.

    Sure thing, only thing to decide is whether to play strong or weak. Either way I'll have my revenge

    O right but I presume we can't change anyone in the depth chart as if we did that would change the overall rating

    Empacher said that the overall rating of the Pats didn't change with or without Gronk and I don't think the overall rating of the redskins changed when I changed from Cousins to RG3.

    Empacher beat me 24-17. Very enjoyable game. I think the sliders made a big difference here. Run game seemed much more realistic and the passing game seemed more realistic too. There were actual punts :eek:

    Texans 24 redskins 17. Good game. Sliders make a good game. Pass coverage is more realistic. Run defence is better. You can still get yardage without bursting free every 3rd play

    Texans ovr 74. 406 remaining.

    Who was the other teams in the game and their ratings if you could thanks! Obviously I know my game. What did you think of the games? Improved with the sliders? Or is it just a placebo effect?

    I cant remember the ratings to be honest, Empacher was the Vikings who i think were 77, but he might know better then me, i didnt notice the sliders effecting the game to much.

    Don't have time to do another. If anyone else has free time then perhaps they could do one. Giffney, what was the score in your game?
