Gyuri: I'm also not going to have access to the game much until tomorrow night, but I expect I'll tone down the 3-4 for the Razorbacks (probably back to 50/50 versus the stron and normal I). I think our individual tactics are probably okay to just keep the same, but we can revert the NTs back to balanced focus if you prefer.

Bort said he was working on adding plays to the weak I, so we need to make sure we watch for that.

Just to get in early, I'm also going to be out of town and without any access from 10-12 October.

I'm good to do stuff then. I'll likely be asleep Friday daytime and I'm out Sunday evening, but otherwise I can make changes whenever.

Alright, all up to you then GY. No pressure.

Ok, Matej and I should probably try and put together a rough sense of our game plan for the Titans before we leave (the Babies game should take care of itself).

GY, if you have time between now and then, take a look through our discussion on tactics our private forum on GLB, as Matej has done a good job explaining what he's done with the defense and why (the offense is, I think, much easier to handle).

I'll try and put together a preset for the Titans game at least. But we'll definitely need somebody watching their trends and any updates to the game during that time.

It would also be a good idea if GY could start familiarizing himself with the offensive and defensive AI.

I'm going to be out of town this weekend, and so probably won't be able to do much game planning for our game on Sunday. Matej, will you be able to post the individual tactics and make any necessary changes to the oAI?

That was a shockingly easy win. Besides the continued presence of the incompletion bug, the only real problem was that we so smothered their offense that our defense didn't get many plays.

Yeah, it was actually almost a bit 'too' smothering.

I should be able to take care of the Sunday game without any problem. It should be a cakewalk.

For that game, I was thinking of setting the QBs to never dump off (to see how it works). We may also want to think about getting rid of forced starters on offense near the red zone. With the incompletion bug making medium passes to the starting WRs (too fast, I think) out of 2 WR sets a serious question, we may be better off mixing up which WRs play. Also, b/c of the incompletion problem, we end up running many more plays in the red zone and I think our offense gets a little tired. I'll leave it up to Matej to make the change, though.

Man that was a walkover. Even with the redzone problems in the first half our defence was so good they didn't stand a chance. I haven't gone through the replays yet to see how much of it was the incompletion problem, but I'll have a look tonight, and do some scouting for Sunday. Incidentally, playing on Hard definitely seems to be the right option for GY. That's his third perfect game in a row, and he had a lot of kicks this time.

Gyuri: Go ahead and set Joe P for the no dump rule, and I'll post the O tactics to say the same.

There's a lvl 33 LB on marketplace who hasn't opened his stats and wants a one year deal. Though I'm normally reticent to send a contract, in his case his stats are ridiculously good and his scouting bars are as well (45/45). Should I send an offer or not?

sure go for it. That's a nice level, so even if its not a great build, it has to have some decent skills.

I sent the offer. The agent is an amusing lunatic. Curious to see whether he signs.

I'm headed out of town in a couple of hours. He said he'll pick a team tonight, but may be worth following up if the contract's still outstanding later tonight.
