Hi all, Please can you assign your chosen teams by editing your profile. In the edit profile page please scroll down to Xbox/PS4 user teams and select your team. This will then assign your teambars to your profile. I have completed a small update in that you will now be able to click on the teambars and it will direct you to daddyleagues.com specific team within your franchise. This will be of benefit when scouting teams, trades for yourself and commissioners, and wanting to look at yours or others teams as and when you desire. Thank you and hope you all are liking the layout tweaks @Arena Coach @Evolution Coach @PFL Coach @PS4 Coach @PS4 Commissioner @Xbox Commissioner @Staff @VIP

@Xbox Commissioner @PS4 Commissioner You guys can now tag an entire group for ease of use in fixtures, and any league announcements. I will later this evening break the profiles up again into franchise groups ie: Arena Coaches/PFL Coaches/PS4 PFL Coaches/Evolution coaches. Im just trying to reduce your workloads guys

Complete seal of approval here. Great team of initially 3 @DanMcGrath77 is experienced in running franchises (Pro10), regular on these boards, great player/team owner, fantastic chap to chat on game days over the mic.. Clearly the no1 person I would want running this franchise. @Vondia having only got to know him on M18 I have nothing but great things to say about the chap. Again a top class and I mean top class bloke to chat with on the mic. Podcasts are a great listen, and by the way I have only ever listened to MaddenPFL. My employer provides us podcast I don't listen, Dolphins provide podcasts I don't listen that tells you something. A great asset to MaddenPFL.com and the PFL xbox. @Mcmanus Again a theme is developing, a true gent both on the mic, in the forum's and in person. Had a great time and chat with him on the meet up other year in Manchester. Another great asset to Maddenpfl.com. There was so many worthy candidates to take ownership of this franchise and so many could easily do the job to a great standard making us a Premier Franchise community. But realistically a decision was needed as Madden 19 is just around the corner (I have just downloaded the full game). I would like to add that my activity has been down some since taking ownership of backend duties, but after speaking with a member it probably not known how much really goes on behind the scenes taking a hell of a lot of my time. I am a family man with four kids and a beautiful wife all of which I adore. My current employment is known to most and in this day and age is a hard slog and times of austerity cause my chosen field to dictate when I work and that includes my rest days which are no longer my rest days. With regards to MaddenPFL backend everyday I receive half a dozen emails from our cpanel that controls our site detailing improvements and errors that occur. I have to correct each one, as they arrive. A simple update to the forum's software I complete at daft o'clock as to not affect this community and brings so many challenges and errors. Last night's update was an bum and I fixed the coding errors at 2am and was driving then to work 4 hours later. Oh and same goes for our website. Being transparent our funding is good, and we are self sufficient thanks to our VIP's, we have a positive bank balance each and every month our server, forums software and domain fees are paid MaddenPFL will be in a position to renew daddyleagues.com subscriptions for the three franchises if the commissioners so wish. Thank you all for a great Madden 18 and I am looking forward to M19 being even better. I would ask if anyone has any suggestions for improvements to content, features, software, subscriptions to contact me by PM. Also if you would like to discuss or disagree with the commissioners chosen I will gladly discuss this with you. I have honestly done what I think best for this world class community. You are all fantastic, sincerely thank you for the last 11 months of Madden. @SnapDan thank you for all you did in Madden 18 and for the site. Please feel free to jump back into MaddenPFL at a level of your choosing as and when you feel upto it. Going to miss you buddy, please don't stay away too long or stray

yeah me too, if my wife seen another xbox/nfl/madden expense coming out of the joint account, you'd be looking for a new coach of the Titans

Hey guys, it’s been awhile I know. I want apologize for my abrupt leaving. I want to apologize for not telling you all why I left. I had something life changing occur to my wife that shook us to our core. Out of respect for her privacy, I won’t elaborate on what that is, but know that she will ok. I’m still trying to wrap my head around things right now but just wanted to let everyone know (those that give at s**t at least) that I’m not dead. I’ll eventually come back to the leagues but not sure when that will be. I’ll pop in periodically to say hi and whatnot. Take care!

Gents! So after some discussing behind the scenes @TopLoader appointed me and @DanMcGrath77 to run the PFL next year after our leader from this year stepped down. @Mcmanus will be our co-commish and @tripperman28 is gonna first try and set the Arena up again and after that might join the team as well if it’s needed. @dr_volki is gonna keep doing his write-ups based on the stats provided by madden 19. And we got a ghost writer who’s gonna do write-ups about the league anonymously. Exciting things to come and we’re looking forward to keep building this community. Announcements about the big items for madden 19 will come soon after we’ve set everything up.

Good luck chaps, one piece of advice I can give.... Don't let DMac do the draft

Server upgrade, could have waited until tonight, but wanted to get it out of the way and not be faffing about at butt f**k o'clock if s**t went pear shaped. Just so happened that during the switch, the domain ownership also switched from me to @TopLoader, which essentially means that MaddenPFL and everything therein is now owned by the man himself. There will be another outage in the next week or two where Toploader switches over to MaddenPFL owned hosting and then its 100% complete. Again, apologies for not having any warning, I've been dragging this on for the last week or so with the host. Anyway, all done now. Welcome back

Hello everyone, Would like to join your community and participate in some of the leagues. I heard about madden PFL from my good friend Rayski. I watch football and play madden since 2006, however I had not played for the past 2 years. I bought an Xbox a few weeks back and can't wait to compete again. Would like to join the Arena league first if possible.

Little update. I can not remember who requested the teambars return but after several hours messing with code sorted it. Please see the below image and my own postbit. To select your team please edit profile and select from the dropdown box your assigned team for each league. Cheers @SnapDan @helimachoptor @RamsDan @ZoSo @tripperman28 @Beyond The Game @aidopotato @Aaron

Evening, Another little addition is the ability to add teams helmets (see match reports for example) and some of the prefixes have now a dedicated colour (just to be visually better when browsing) If a trade is approved a approved prefix is assign and same with the declined (see a trade announcement thread) I have linked below some examples https://maddenpfl.com/forums/index.php?/forum/379-pfl-team-blogs/ https://maddenpfl.com/forums/index.php?/forum/285-pfl-trade-announcements/

@Arena Coach @Evolution Coach @PFL Coach @PS4 Coach @PS4 Commissioner @Xbox Commissioner Another little update for you guys. (Applications in the menu bar) Now an application system is in place whereby you can apply for staff jobs, commissioner vacancies and come Madden 20 apply to be in the franchises we will be running. This system is a great bit of kit for us admin, it will promote members into the relevant groups upon successful application ie: apply to join PS4 Evolution Franchise and successful it will promote you from member to Evo Coach and all the permissions that comes with the profile. It also places a thread within our staff forums for those with access to discuss each application. Onwards and upwards TopL0ader

To All players in the PFL and Arena Leagues We have a great opportunity for you all A competition of sorts A copy of Madden 20 will be given to someone that the commissioners of both leagues deems to have made the best contribution to the site and their respected league. this could be streaming their games, match reports, site content, etc @JA15 is kindly donating the copy of Madden 20 on Xbox for our competition

Just a quick note to all our Xbox coaches out there. Don't be a duck head!( yes I know I’m one to talk) There’s been a few instances in which members old and new have had problems with chat (GroupMe) and in-game behavior. Its simple, only trash talk guys you know can take it. Always ask your opponent if they want you to “play your game” or chew clock when things aren’t going their way. If you don’t know or can’t confirm if they are cool with banter or you pounding them in-game, then err on the safe side and take it as easy as possible. We all should be able to enjoy all that this community offers, but that shouldn’t be at the expense of other members enjoyment.

I see you still dont trust the germans with any kind of power

Just thought I'd share some stats with you guys Yesterday 6th April 2018 we had 383 unique visitors onto Madden PFL 13,984 pages viewed 25,249 hits We are going strong as a community

Same here

I think we just found our very own Abramovich from Dubai as well..

Hi - Daniel here. Got control of the Jags... but in real-life I'm a Giants fan and live in Hamilton (near Glasgow). Looking forward to the UK fixture announcement so I can book a trip to London again - been down the last two years (Redskins-Bengals and Vikings-Browns). Cheers for the warm welcome!

Please find for your attention until all leagues are created and madden 20 is live. https://daddyleagues.com/thepfl All the new teams/rosters are updated with Madden 20 stats

Update to user postbits (the bit to the left of the posts with user details) * Added PFL customised superbowl rings (depending on if you have won any of course!) @RamsDan request * Added rank images as opposed to just text

Going to attempt this evening moving our servers to a UK VPS. This should improve the speeds for UK /Euro members. If successful the server is more powerful, more memory, larger hard drives and overall more efficient. Good news there also cheaper monthly. The servers and all services will go down this evening including the forum's. Please do not worry a back up will be made and should problems arise the existing server will be brought back online. Thank you in advance for your patience

Little update to the site in terms of layout. Xbox (Team Green) & PS4 (Team Blue) have had their respective forums split. This is for ease of use and PS4 are deserving of their own forums. Looking to the future and possibility of implementing Team Green vs Team Blue competitions on site and comparisons of activity, posts, tweets, streamed games. Just to get us Team Green's motivated here's what the Blue leader @Beyond The Game is preaching to his Blue clan Fight time Green's!

We’re happy to announce our PS4 Community is growing! Since we started our PS4 League last year we have seen the PS4 grow and develop quite rapidly. Over the past 12 months we have had around 50 unique members join the site. However over the past few months our user base has continued to grow and we have found ourselves unable at times to whet the appetite of these new users with our one league which has been consistently full for a majority of 2018. As a result I’m pleased to announce the launch of the PS4 Evolution. The league will aim to follow the same mindset as our core PFL League with a few slight tweaks. The League will have 5-6 Day Advances. Draft Classes will be based on the 2019 Rookie Class – Nick Bosa Team Draft will be randomised (More Details on this soon) Start Date – Following Pre Season Week 4 Roster Cuts. Ultimately we are aiming to market this league as a fun/casual league which will run alongside our existing offering to provide those who are on our waiting list a chance to experience a MaddenPFL League. Sign-Ups will be going up shortly and we are already advertising/recruiting. If you’re interested in joining, what are you waiting for Sign-Up!

New website design, pages are being implemented slowly. Graphics will be updated as and when, any suggestions please feel free to let me know.

The forum's will be offline for a short period around midnight. Reason: Updates

Hello all, My names Andrew. Not been playing CFM long but had various maddens since 99. Played MUT and normal franchise mode for a few years but never that regularly. Im a scouser that lives in Manchester. Seem to get ripped for that a fair bit in SML and VGFL. I’m not very good, so bear with me. I am a packers fan but have chargers now in two CFM leagues, I hated them beforehand and now I actually quite like them.

Happy to throw a few quid in for initial cost, will get on it later

Will Donate after payday

Currently on a busy set with work (ends Wednesday thank god!) I am almost settled and decided with services and packages that we need to keep the site going, Prices will be made apparent to all in due course. I have set a MaddenPFL paypal account up initially in order to be as transparent as possible re any funds both received and services paid for. Again these details will be made apparent to all in due course. The transition from DavoteK to I wont be immediate, once the domain of maddenpfl.com is transferred to me, then I can move forward with ordering the services required and then the seamless transfer of the data will happen. I plan on using the same forum we have now that is Invision Community, and also use a VPS from Servint which currently host MaddenPFL. Reasoning is that the data can be migrated in house thus limiting any disruption in service. We would only be tied into a rolling monthly contract with the VPS, but I plan on looking at alternatives both cheaper but have to offer the same if not better service in the future to benefit MaddenPFL. Exciting times ahead at MaddenPFL. I will be looking at developing a small plan going forward looking at making MaddenPFL a true franchise and becoming Europe's largest recognised Madden community. The plan would be all behind the scene's and staff/community having a say before any decision is finalised. I will NOT interfere in the daily running of the community by the current admins who I will praise again are doing an amazing job I am here to support admins in any way if required to do so. Any suggestions please drop me a PM, email, groupme PM, I will gladly also hand my mobile number out for whatsapp messaging.

Done. Thanks for all you do. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Done

@Arena Coach @Evolution Coach @PFL Coach @PS4 Coach @PS4 Commissioner @Xbox Commissioner Can I ask you all to reassign your user teams for each franchise following a little update? You will now be able to click your team within the profile and it will direct you to that team on daddyleagues.com. This should save time etc when anybody needs to view a members team (trades and trade approvals etc) EDIT Profile > Select PS4 or Xbox User teams

Hey just got back into Madden once more after a long lay off was a member of the original leagues back on the old 360 days,think I was the only one left along with Ken playing out the old league when everyone moved on to the Xbox one,still played it a little but now have inherited Xbox one and have 18 free on ea access,am planning on getting a copy of 19 in the next week and was hoping to maybe head up some friendly games to get me up to speed with how the latest versions have moved on with a look at re joining a league if there is space available and I can set out enough time to commit. Have struggled a little with Madden 18 to be honest,just getting used to the different feel and controls seems alien after such a long break from current games but hope to be able to compete after a few games and familiarise myself in the leagues and site once more. cheers Andy

Tapatalk plugin has been added to the site. Please feel free to explore and pass opinion Link to download for mobiles

Ok I've had to familiarise myself with the current Madden and may be ready to step up to one of the leagues,is there still space in Arena league?

For next year's Madden we will giving PS4 member who are VIPs a bump up the team draft (Not a large jump) most likely a jump up a place or two

Our server is now working correctly. I will late this evening point our domain to the server, there may be a 2-4hr disruption. Some of you may have to clear the cache's on your browsers in order for the forums to be viewed. Again I will post a update this evening

I heard about you guys from searching madden leagues on ths internet and thought this was the best one to be apart of!

Now a member of the sub club

missed the message first time, but donated now.

Needs someone at the helm with a distinct vision of how to push the place forward, madden-centric. I’d be doing the place a disservice by staying put and if we really want the place to flourish (and I do), then me putting someone in place to do that with me still behind the scenes will end up with me dabbling. I don’t want that, I want it as clean a slate as possible with no involvement from myself as I think that will see it fulfil its potential with all of you guys rallying round TL to ensure this.
