Yeah we don't do that and it's not realistic on top of that. That's why guys are credited/treated +2 for keeping full rosters....not slashing them to hell to compensate for more GREEDY scholarships because you deem some 3-Stars from a couple seasons ago non-relevant anymore who were on scholarships. Treat it like a REAL college team and stop viewing it as a company with too much overhead And now you just ONLY have scholarships for the Seniors departing...so adjust that to 5
Isn't that basically what Big 10 fans always accuse Saban of doing? Taking away scholarships to sign more talented guys? LOL.
Recruiting: Team Roster Maximum is 70 players If you have a 68 men or more on your roster, you still receive the +2 additional scholarships towards your 70 man count If you are 67 or below on your roster, you receive no extra scholarships. You only get to recruit to your 70th man. Minimum size team rosters is 67 (3) Five-Star Signing is the Max for a single team (10) Four-Star Signing is the Max for a single team 1-Star Recruits/Signings do not count towards your scholarship allotment Kickers nor Punters count against your scholarship cap Walk-Ons do not count against your scholarship cap if they are a 3-Star or Below. But you are limited to the following: (2) 3-Star,(2) 2-Star, 1-Stars are not limited at all. 5 or 4-Star walk-ons are NOT allowed. You either must remove them from your board so they will not sign or you must offer them a scholarship and it will count against your capped amount. Mark - these are the recruiting rules, you obviously did not know the rule about maintaining a 67 man roster. Cutting guys like that just allows you to replace some of the "trash" with the 10 4/5 star recruits you are bringing in this year. It is a major violation of the rules. I'm not saying that I am perfect or that I will never not fuck up a rule, but I am becoming concerned that you are more concerned with winning games in the league than playing and having fun. Please show us that this is not the case. David
Mark plays the game as a video game and doesnt play it like most who play the game as the the coach of their team. He looks for any edge. But that's where I come in
I did not, in fact, know that there was a 67 man minimum. I missed that. Looks like a small class just got a lot smaller.
I missed the rule. It wasn't an attempt to fuck you or anyone else over. It was the first time that I've been in this situation. Clearly I should have checked the rules first, but I thought I knew them. I know that everything I do is perceived as trying to cheat, but maybe - just maybe - people make honest mistakes from time to time. I didn't know the rule. Shame on me. I'll pay the price.
Actually - fuck that. The rules were changed yesterday. There was no rule against what I did. Since there's no rule against it, I don't think it fair to penalize me for that.
Well regardless what you think is fair, it's not realistic. Teams don't do whole sale cuts of scholarship college students to bring in better players. It's not realistic and in real life it's not ethical. And to be honest, for some one who has to be constantly corrected for stretching the bounds of sim I would think you would react a little differently. You're about one step below CeeGee right now and it's starting to piss me off.
I put the 67 minimum in b/c apparently we need it for JUST you....I hate having to "add" rules...it has even gotten worse b/c I think some of Funk's stance on banning/ruling everything out sucks and has rubbed off on me You need to look to this for further explanation.... There is NO penalty placed on you....you did a stupid and unrealistic thing by "slasing/cleaning/douchebagging" fake cpu players off your team and that's how you treat them. But that's not SIM nor realistic in life to the game of football and thus will only be able to sign scholarships to departing seniors.
You see it one way, I see it a different way. To (again) attack my character for something that was not against the rules is bullshit. How should I react to something that unjustly attacks my integrity? If you don't like the way I managed my roster, make a rule for it (like you did) and I'll gladly follow. Attack my character and I'll respond accordingly. As it is, I didn't break any rules.
Start viewing your team like REAL players and a REAL Football program on all fronts and you don't have this issue. You are looking at the game wrong...just like most non-sim players do
Gee "I didn't break the rules, don't attack me" sounds almost word for word like what CeeGee used to tell me and David. Around and around we go, eventually the true colors come out.
