I am signed up, but currently on vaca, and will be back Sunday night, to set up recruiting and want not
Out of town for funeral, but will setup to roll Sunday.
I accepted the invite. I'll do recruiting either tonight or tomorrow.
6 down, 6 to go!
I'm signed up and ready.
I'm in. I picked up Houston. I wanted to stay with a Texas team, but I figured Tech was too high. Houston was ranked this year, but I'm pretty sure they're not a credible threat to dominate the league.
I am in, went with Ole Miss. Also seems pointless to try and go more then one season with all the reports of broken features.
DS:
Any word on schedulr changes? Is that something you can do now or do you have to wait until the league advances?

Going through a small number of seasons may not be so bad. Let's see how it works out for us before bailing on the idea.
Ha -- DS, I just noticed through a board somewhere that they goofed up ND's schedule, changing an away game to a home game. Given the importance (it seems) of homefield advantage, perhaps you could change my game against Michigan State to be away. I've otherwise got 8 home games and only 4 away. Army may be treated the same way -- the game is actually in Yankee Stadium this year, and it may have put it at ND. I'm happy to have that in West Point if it's convenient.
I don't know how difficult it is to rearrange these things, so feel free to ignore these requests! That Army game, in particular, could be a good one into which you could slot another human player if we change things up.

So, I'm beginning to think that the decline in mean team ratings over several years of Dynasty mode is a subtle attempt by the developers to comment on our national athletic prowess. I think this is really just a biting satirical commentary on their part, projecting our national decline into a too-large-of-waistline country, as reflected in a paucity of high end athletes. I imagine that the crowds in these virtual stadiums grow larger with each year, too (and not in a numerical, number of tickets sold sense). As such, it should really be seen as a more-than-slightly devious take on the US. We shouldn't criticize it for ruining the immersion in a realistic simulation of college football, but rather we should applaud its social criticism and the developers' courage for including such a critique of our plight. Especially since this could be a warning of our coming catastrophic drop into physical mediocrity.

Or....
The dynasty functionality is broken.
Not sure why that happens, but I did find out what it meant when it says that stats won't upload.

I haven't tried a second online dynasty. I am working with the one that is offline. 3 wins and 4 losses playing as Air Force. I was up 10-0 on the 11th ranked TCU. They came back to tie it with 40 seconds left. I figured I could run a couple of options plays and maybe get into field goal range. Well, the LB got in between my quarterback and running back and caught the ball in mid pitch for a fumble recovery. They milk the clock and hit a game winning field goal with no time left.
DS -- How many online dynasties can you commish? I saw something about being able to pay money to run up to 5 dynasties...which made me wonder if you would have trouble running a personal one and the one for us.
Frankie told me the other night he had decided to pass.
You know, if we don't get absolutely everyone signed up very soon, we should just start. Can't folks hop into the dynasty later, ala joining the Madden online franchise a week or two in? If we don't start, we're likely to lose momentum or get cannibalized by other games.

I agree. Can we put some type of deadline in the kick this off? I am fine playing with 11 or 10 people or with whatever we have. I just want to kick this thing into gear!
Missing gdawg, frankie and Legion. Are you guys in or not? Want to get the custom schedules going.I thought I was in. I accepted the invite a few days ago. Hmm...just tried to login online and it says I haven't joined. I'll redo it again when I get home tonight.
I wouldn't mind playing Rutgers in one of my non-conference games. Took some classes there years ago. Nice campuses.
I wouldn't mind losing to..............errr, playing Shonuff You can swap Navy out for a matchup with Northwestern.
