What is your previous league experience (if any)? I'm in HK and have been for the past 2 years and I love it. Great group of guys.

Please list ALL of the leagues that you are currently involved in. MLB the Show: NEBL, TCBL. Madden: HK

A lot of us are dedicated one league players; will you be playing in multiple Madden leagues for M25, and if so how can you ensure that you will be a successful active owner in The Q? Looking to join you guys alongside HK for M15 on PS4. I'm a college student so I have plenty of time to be dedicated to both.

How did you hear about us? CTfromDC was talking about how you guys will be moving over to PS4 this next release over on our HK GroupMe chat.

Why do you want to join the The QSF? HK is very fun and relaxed, it would be a nice change of pace to have a solid and strict league to coincide.

We pride ourselves in respect and communication; so why would you be a good addition to the league? I don't play for any other reason than to have a good time with good people. I love the game of football.

We promote an active community and prefer that our members check in on a nearly daily basis; do you anticipate any issues in being active on the forums and contributing to the league and the TSO community in general? Never have had any issues, never plan to.

What is the general schedule when you would expect to be available to play league games? Like I said, I'm in college so it is pretty lenient. Although I do work night shifts 3 times a week. But I will have no problems getting games in.

We are a league that intends to play the full Madden release cycle; are you the type of player that enjoys playing Madden year round, or just during football season? Year round.

What does “simulation” football mean to you? Imo it means playing the game like any team irl would. But, also, not abusing anything.

Which is more important to you… Winning or playing a game fairly and coming up short? Playing the game fairly.

What is your favorite team? And is having them a deal breaker for you or are you willing to play with any team that is available? Atlanta Falcons. Definitely not, I have chosen other teams over them many times.

We advance the online franchise every three days (72 hours) and require each owner to manage all aspects of their franchise. Will you be able to meet our advance schedule? Fasho!

Good to see your app, Cole. I'm sure we'll be in contact with you once we start gearing up for the M15 release. Keep your eyes peeled once August comes around!

YIM (league requirement for communication): omdbass
TIME ZONE: Central
PSN ID: none yet
What is your previous league experience (if any)? UMFL, TMFL, 12th Man, TFL, and the list goes on.

Please list ALL of the leagues that you are currently involved in. None

A lot of us are dedicated one league players; will you be playing in multiple Madden leagues for M25, and if so how can you ensure that you will be a successful active owner in The Q? No, I will only be in one Madden league

How did you hear about us? I've played with many of the guys here for a long time. I went over to the Xbox 360 a few years ago and moved to the Xbox One. I'm going to be trading the Xbox One back in and moving ot the PS4 and I'd like to play with a lot of my old friends in this league.

Why do you want to join the The QSF? I've played with a lot of the guys in various leagues in the past. The core members of this league are some of the best members of any league I have ever been apart of. It's a family, and a very good experience. Anyone who has been in this league at some capacity would echo this statement. The league you join makes a crappy game great, and a great game unbelievable.

We pride ourselves in respect and communication; so why would you be a good addition to the league? I consider myself a mature gamer. I pride myself in playing simulation style football. I enjoy the camaraderie that goes along with being in a league. I look for leagues that have a core group of members that I can be a part of that not only stick it out for one cycle, but stick around for multiple cycles.

We promote an active community and prefer that our members check in on a nearly daily basis; do you anticipate any issues in being active on the forums and contributing to the league and the TSO community in general? Absolutely not, I check this site daily.

What is the general schedule when you would expect to be available to play league games? In the evenings after 7pm central. Weekends when scheduled in advance.

We are a league that intends to play the full Madden release cycle; are you the type of player that enjoys playing Madden year round, or just during football season? Year round.

With the next generation of consoles on the horizon; do you foresee circumstances where you would stop playing Madden 25 on the PS3 in favor of one of the new consoles? Not applicable since this league will be on the PS4.

What does “simulation” football mean to you? Without over embellishing, the core of simulation football to mean means play like the way you see the game being played on television. Preserve the integrity of the game. If you're fourth and long you punt. If you're up big at the end of the game you run the ball and chew the clock. Shaun Mason says it best, just don't be a douche.

Which is more important to you… Winning or playing a game fairly and coming up short? Most people that know me understand I am not one of the better players on this site, in fact I am probably at the lower end of players on this site. That being said, it's all about the members of this league and treating each other with respect. If I come up short, because I played my best and played simulation style ball, that's fine. I will make up for it the next game. Maintaining a fair, competitive environment is much more important.

What is your favorite team? And is having them a deal breaker for you or are you willing to play with any team that is available? The Washington Redskins. Nah it's not a deal breaker.

We advance the online franchise every three days (72 hours) and require each owner to manage all aspects of their franchise. Will you be able to meet our advance schedule? Absolutely.

Good to see you'll be coming back to the league, Chris!

Thx Doug. I went to gamestop today sold the Xbox One and bought my ps4. Excited to make the jump back.

NICE!

What is your previous league experience (if any)? I've played in multiple xbox madden leagues and a NCAA dynasty over the years. All of which were organized on tradition.

Please list ALL of the leagues that you are currently involved in. None

A lot of us are dedicated one league players; will you be playing in multiple Madden leagues for M25, and if so how can you ensure that you will be a successful active owner in The Q?
I only plan on playing in one league this year. Hopefully it's the Q.
How did you hear about us?
CHUNKNESS approached me when I was speaking to ADMINS about switching my name to reflect my switch from xbox to ps4.
Why do you want to join the The QSF?
I've always had good experiences on tradition and enjoy being part of a community of online sports gamers. I've gotten alot of previous leagues and hope I can help provide the same experience for others in the community. I just really enjoy being part of an active organized league of good, fair players.
We pride ourselves in respect and communication; so why would you be a good addition to the league?
I like being involved in league communication an banter on the forums. I've also contributed weekly content in leagues past in addition to game summaries. Here examples of both. Also not a stranger to season previews, pre and post draft talk. (hope the url links show up)

We promote an active community and prefer that our members check in on a nearly daily basis; do you anticipate any issues in being active on the forums and contributing to the league and the TSO community in general? No, I've always been able to use my phone to check in and respond as necessary if not near a PC.

What is the general schedule when you would expect to be available to play league games?
Evenings during the week and days and evenings on weekends. Sundays can be a little more restricited cause I'm watching the games with friends.
We are a league that intends to play the full Madden release cycle; are you the type of player that enjoys playing Madden year round, or just during football season? I would enjoy madden for a full cycle but previous leagues I've been in, league interest across the board has always seemed to fizzle out after the Super Bowl is over.

With the next generation of consoles on the horizon; do you foresee circumstances where you would stop playing Madden 25 on the PS3 in favor of one of the new consoles? Only looking to play madden 15 on PS4.

What does “simulation” football mean to you?
It means playing like a real NFL game would be played. No money, no constant no-huddle, no going for it on 4th down every time, constant onside kicks, mixing up play calls on both sides of the balls. No annoying offensive trash talk. Just playing real situational footballl.
Which is more important to you… Winning or playing a game fairly and coming up short?
Of course everyone likes to win but I'd rather come up short than win by cheesin'. So in short winning is not everything. Playing a competitive, fair game is more fun win or lose. It makes for a better league for everyone when that philosophy is implemented.
What is your favorite team? And is having them a deal breaker for you or are you willing to play with any team that is available?
The Niners are my favorite but not a deal breaker. They only deal breaker would be the seachickens but given how strong of a team they are, I'm sure theyll be quick to go.
We advance the online franchise every three days (72 hours) and require each owner to manage all aspects of their franchise. Will you be able to meet our advance schedule? I'd be able to meet this. Thats the advance schedule I've had in the past and its pretty managable.
