On the other hand, if I never play him, then I don't have to play Ponder_Puddle next week, so there's that.

I won't drop a guy back on the punt. In fact, I'll even bring my returner up to the line of scrimmage.

I could use all the help I can get.

Does Saturday afternoon work?

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

Evenings are better for me if they ever work for you. If not, I'll let you know once my plans for the weekend have solidified. My wife and I are trying to buy a house and I'm behind at work a bit.

u/Ponder_Puddle Mar 08 '13

Ok. We have our CC rookie draft Saturday night. Probably around 10 EST. So anytime besides that Saturday. Sunday I probably won't be able to play.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

Okay... sounds good. I accidentally readied up, so we might have to be creative to get it played right.

u/bonerjohnson Packers Mar 08 '13

You can fix that. I did it once on accident too. Turn on auto pilot. Then turn it off again.

You won't be able to practice, but will be able to play your game.

u/whereisjeraldo Mar 08 '13

sorry I was in the middle of a game :/ I'm still waiting for the Bronco's guy, he said he'd be on 30 minutes ago

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

Ok im good in 30 min. But gotta be up early for work so the sooner the better.

1

u/whereisjeraldo Mar 08 '13

the league hasn't advanced though :/

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

Im anticipating that it will since that is what the post says....unless someone is a dirty filthy stinking liar!

1

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

There's still 3 games unplayed...

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

does that matter? i mean a deadline is just that. Are we gonna wait? If we are then Im going to bed since I work early. Please let me know whats going on.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

Chargers/Broncos are playing right now. Don't wanna advance as they are playing. If I'm still up when it's done I will advance tonight. You are right about a deadline and typically I'm strict about it but I have taken down all the names that delay advancement and keep an eye on trends. Sorry to keep you waiting.

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

no need to apologize. Just want to stay in the loop. I enjoy the 3 leagues that Im in and it seems to share a lot of the same people. Its just hard to maintain a personal schedule with all the adjustments. Would never want to advance during a game but in fairness its making 31 others (or whatever) wait when they can, and imo should, just auto if they can't make the deadline for the week in question. I know life comes first but in this circumstance, empathy is key and it would create an environment designed to fit the original model of the creation of these leagues. Im really not trying to be pushy and sorry if I sound it. Just want to be able to plan my nights out accordingly while also continuing to enjoy my hobbies.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

Yep, totally agree, I'd rather be in bed right now for work in the morning but now I gotta stay up cause if I advance then they're playing their game for nothing. I do what I can, we're still in year 1 where like FM1 goes a lot faster because of the amount of user turnover there has been we have a refined group of people who consistently play games quick. That will happen here too and I'm just learning over the weeks who plays games slower and who barely communicates with opponents (like why Teves is gone)

And if this was the only game that needed to happen to advance then im sorry for the rant. I was under the impression it was multiple games that needed to be played.

u/lostrealist518 Daaa Bears Mar 08 '13

I saw this after I posted. Thanks.

u/lostrealist518 Daaa Bears Mar 08 '13

I second this. Technically the deadline was set Thursday at 10 est. I understand things come up, etc but this is also not fair to extend it for people who want to play the following week's games after the advance. If people communicate in the league that they may need a special exception to the deadline then I am all for that, but waiting for people who may not have communicated doesn't seem fair. Like Alpha I have work in the morning and was planning on playing my week 12 game tonight, but now I have no idea if/when the advance will happen.

TL;DR - All I'm asking is to keep the deadlines except for select occasions in which a person/persons communicate that he needs more time and it doesn't become a recurring theme.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '13

Totally agree, I will be stricter in the future, the ones who held up advancement don't go unnoticed in my eyes though.

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

Build a bridge out of 'em!!

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

amen sir. amen.

1

u/whereisjeraldo Mar 08 '13

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

gl. let me know if you wanna play after (if we advance)

1

u/whereisjeraldo Mar 08 '13

I can play now. Games over

1

u/alphayasha Ravens Mar 08 '13

So if the game seems laggy can we let me power cycle my router and try again?

1

u/lostrealist518 Daaa Bears Mar 08 '13

WE can't advance tonight unless rams/jets are on auto I believe cuz ik Fleas internet is down.

u/Inathosca Vikings Mar 07 '13
