    @SnapDan @helimachoptor

    Are we lowering the injury slider at all? 

    The Gurley injury I get, my injured Slay I get.... As well as many others but I have just seen @Winti26 injured QB's 2 in 2 games that's harsh.

    I am sure you have been monitoring YouTube for the injury slider and lowering it has helped. 

    Any thoughts? 

    Yeah been monitoring it bud, been asking advice of other CFM leagues too, I think every team is having a different experience so far, like there is only 2 QBs in the league injured and both play for the saints. Myself lost Jay ajayi in week 1 for 6 weeks after just 2 carries but his injury rating is about 80 so it's to be expected. 

    The aim is to keep it sim as possibe without taking the fun out of it. The best way to learn is to let it play out a couple weeks, we can remove all injuries from players at any point. In week one there were only 22 players injured half of them were 60/70 ovr guys who must have been playing special teams or something. 

    I think though even if we turn them down to 20/30 people will feel even more hard done by when losing players because it won't be happening to as many other people around the league. It seems to be mainly players in similar positions getting injured especially running backs, which is a pretty injury prone position irl

    Guy getting a very high amount of injuries in both leagues. Lost 4 starters in first game alone. If this continues I wont have enough players ! Might be worth a look asap guys.

    Yeah bud we are keeping an eye on it. In week 1 in the PFL there was like 22 injured players who are going to miss weeks. Most injuries are just in game and then they are fine when it's finished. 

    It's not a 'bug' looking amount of injuries at the minute but that could change as we play more games. Injuries can be removed at any point in the season though so if all hell did start to break loose we could wipe them all

    Going to try and stream pro10 playoff game see how it works test it for madden 18 last time I tried it wouldn't work

    Have you tried mixer yet? I have found it so much easier and smoother when playing

  5. To test the youtube out, if you use mixer its so easy. You go to manage channel, vods then download. You can upload it straight to the channel or even email it to on of the commissioners and we can post it up. Be great if we can get all the streamed games on the YouTube channels, Superbowls etc on there to watch any time would be great

  7. Got an idea and maybe the guy who could run it. 

    @StueyH111 might be a silly idea but I was thinking. What if we did a Madden fantasy league. 

    If 5-10 people want to do it we could draft a fantasy team and score them on yards and tds only so 1 point for every 10 yards and 2 points for a td or something. At th end of each advance update the table and bump the post, wouldn't be like nfl where you face off someone each week just like a league table that gets updated. 

    Use a normal fantasy team like up minus the defence and kicker and add an extra flex player to the line up or something, you can't draft your own players, if you trade for someone on your fantasy team they need to be cut from your fantasy team. Waivers are to be posted before advance to the next week etc

    Could be a lot of fun and really wouldn't take much to manage

    Power Rankings are always a winner. Used to do them all the time in UKML. They do take some time though.

    Also, it seems to be the same players who are in the Top 10 quite often throughout the season. Ideally we wants something that involves all of the players in the league like quick hits used to. Or a combination of the two.

    Division power rankings could be an idea then? Involves all teams and then could rank divisions in strength rather than teams?

    Looking forward to getting back.

     

    amy idea when you're going to look at the draft order @SnapDan

    When I know the 32 people signed up,  once regular season is done in pro 10 so sign up will go up, then the order shortly after, early August

    Love the enthusiasm

    Think we should have two league's. One main one and a secondary one more relaxed where new players can join. Think it would be sad if we have a limit on the site for only 32 coaches and anyone else or new joiners have to wait potentially months for a space to open up. Fair enough the pro 8 has a lot of simmed  games but surely people would prefer some simmed games rather than no league.

    I am volunteering to commissioning, have some spare time now so can put in the effort needed.

     

    2 leagues would be good, with lots of different players in each, this year has been a bit much with too many people in both and I think that's why it's suffered as people have been burnt out. 

    @tripperman28 also offered to help run a similar 2nd franchise to what pro 7 was? (before my time) so if you and him want to recruit @ZoSo you are more than welcome to give it a shot if every one wants that second league. 

    We do need space for recruitment but we also need at least one stable league. At the moment both leagues are suffering and Imo it's due to having too many of the same people in both.
