Official Xbox Live Nba 2k9 League

[koriwhat]

http://www.destructoid.com/elephant/ul/89515-NBA_2K9_coverboy_header.jpg

So as we all know the last time we tried this league thing it went down the drain, well I just bought myself a full year of XBOX LIVE and I want to make the most of it. Seeing as we had atleast 9 people interested in the last league attempt I thought it be in our best interest to try and get the ball rolling once again with a new league.

First, I want to see how many of us are interested and are willing to walk the walk and not just talk the talk this time around. All you gotta do is leave your XBOX Live Gamertag in this thread and I will add you to a list that will be comprised of other interested ST posters.

Once DECEMBER 10, 2008 ends I will not be accepting anymore requests to be in this league.

I will setup the league based on polls about league settings, afterwhich I will then send out invites. If you have any suggestions for sliders and whatnot I wanna hear them. Remember to vote! Voice your opinion! hahaha.

PS: INVITES WILL BE SENT OUT DURING DECEMBER 15, 2008 - DECEMBER 19, 2008. REFER TO THE WEBSITE.

I was close to starting a thread like this. I'm definitely in. I would suggest a few things on the sliders, but I say we make a separate thread for this after we get enough players.

I have been stuck on the wii for a minute but if you really start this up then I am down

also sens an invite to lotto2ten he will join as well

[DannyT]

ohhh and this goes in the /tech forum....:ihit


also if and when we do adjust the sliders there should be some test games where users can get a feel for them and see if they dig it

[z0sa]

Bump? Or could someone move this a more appropriate forum and sticky it?

SO YALL READY TO BALL!?

ok here's the deal... first lets decide if we want custom sliders involved at all, what exact settings we want to use for the league, when we all can play(time/day), etc...

after all this is decided upon i will start sending invites out to all on my list. oh updated list coming soon.

[TacoCabanaFajitas]

Too late to sign up?

[koriwhat]

Too late to sign up?

nope! you are in... it's only too late when we official start the league which i don't exactly have a time frame for at this moment. soon though!

just so you all know... you can visit st2k9.josephwmann.com here in the next week or so for updates on our league and whatnot.

thanks to all who are really wanting to do this!

[IronMexican]

Sorry about my league, guys, but it isn't worth playing it if there is no 2k camera. I sold my game recently.

[koriwhat]

Sorry about my league, guys, but it isn't worth playing it if there is no 2k camera. I sold my game recently.

it's alright... i've been getting used to the broadcast camera when i play online so hopefully i'm not last place in this league when all is said and done.

[z0sa]

Is broadcast the usual camera like in quick game, which is like real NBA telecasts? if so its the same one Ive been using since day 1 and always preferred it ... =D

[koriwhat]

Is broadcast the usual camera like in quick game, which is like real NBA telecasts? if so its the same one Ive been using since day 1 and always preferred it ... =D

it's the default camera online... sucks there's no 2k camera but hey ain't nothing we can do about that and seeing as i have just purchased a full yr of live i figure i might as well get this league going regardless of what cameras are available.

i am working on a cms portal for us all(league players) to be able to login to and get updates on our league and whatnot. stay tuned people for the site to launch sometime in this week or next. i'd love for this all to turn into something similar to frenchnba.com but who knows, we'll see how this all pans out.

[DannyT]

how long are the quarters, what level do we play on...how long is the season? Is there an entry fee that can be set up on paypal that goes to the winner. Like 5 or 10 dollars per?

[koriwhat]

how long are the quarters, what level do we play on...how long is the season? Is there an entry fee that can be set up on paypal that goes to the winner. Like 5 or 10 dollars per?

these are all things that need to be addressed soon and before we start. we definitely need to figure all this out together because i dont want to set this up with just me in mind, i want everyone to equally share in this.

suggestions from sliders to whatever can be sent to me via PM or email @ [email protected]

[z0sa]

I dunno if we should change the sliders after some experimenting ... any change usually seems a little too far in whichever direction. Still really annoying to get charges at half court when you're a shoulder past them...

[kcplayboi_26]

havent tried the league online this year yet, but i am killin just the regular games tho. just had my 22 game streak snapped by the rockets by 2 points and this guy didnt use tmac at all

REGISTRATION ENDS DEC 10, 2008!

[DisAsTerBot]

with the update, the game play and fg% seem a lot better....i think we should start it out on default....evens the playing field for everybody

[koriwhat]

Ok everyone... Website is now updated with everyone who left their Gamertag here in this thread. All ST member names link to profiles as well as all Gamertags.

Signup now while you can! Just leave your GT here in this thread and I will update the site periodically. Don't worry you won't be left out unless you try to signup after December 10th.

[koriwhat]

I like default settings too but sliders were suggested in the last thread and if the majority of us don't care for custom sliders then I am all for the default settings. Once December 10th comes we can all come back in this thread and decide the next course of action which is setting up the league on XBOX Live, then invites will be sent out and the draft(if we go fantasy) will be that following week or so.


BTW there might be a Spurstalkleague.com soon! possibly and only if kori allows me to use spurstalk in the domain title or else i might go with stleague.com or st2kleague.com

[galvatron3000]

has the Official update fixed the Spurs roster?

Fantasy draft FTW! I fucking love fantasy mode ... lets ya feel like a real GM building from scratch, even if your team's shitty you generally can grab someone good and put decent pieces around him. With only 10-15 players in the League it would let everyone have plenty of decent picks.

If everyone else wants it I'm all in favor.

good deal, first come first serve

[koriwhat]

Just a heads up about the league...

Registration ends tomorrow night! No later then 12am!

I know I said I would have the polls up on the site and we could all start voting on league settings that way but it seems as though there will be a slight delay in doing so. I have been very busy working with a new client and will be busy until the weeks end so I might have the polls up this weekend or at the beginning of the new week. Check the site periodically because I might get the itch to work on the site a bit.

Anyone have anything? Questions?

[koriwhat]

oh yeah i wanted to ask a favor of all of you... does anyone have high quality/good screen shots of the big3(of course i am talking about our big3) from 2k9?

oh and remember this as an incentive... i am putting up consolation prizes for those in the top 3 at the end of the season/playoffs. prizes will include such things as a ticket to the game(not an awesome seat or anything but hey it'll be free), a custom st2k9 season 1 tshirt, gift card, ect... if anyone wants to help me out and donate prizes it would be appreciated but don't think i am demanding such things out of you all.

[duncan228]

oh yeah i wanted to ask a favor of all of you... does anyone have high quality/good screen shots of the big3(of course i am talking about our big3) from 2k9?

I've only got one of the three.

Edit: Moved the pic, if anyone still needs it let me know. :)

[koriwhat]

thank you duncan228. you're the best!

[koriwhat]

POLLS will be up tomorrow or saturday for sure. Once they are up I will notify you all here but if you happen to stumble over to the site before I notify you all then by all means vote at that moment.

Please 1 vote per person per question. I will be tracking with IP numbers, plus if there are more votes than the amount of signed up players I will then close that poll and reopen it the next day and all will have to vote over again. Let's do each other a favor and get this going faster by not trying to scam the polls.

Anyhow I am surely excited about all this and I hope you all are too. Thanks to everyone who has showed interest in this league and really want to see it through.

THANK YOU ST MEMBERS!

ps: The list of members signed up for the league will be updated as well and the site itself is gonna look totally different and fresh!

prolly will just like last year after the 10 wk challenge thing, dnt want people just choosing the weak people in the lobby

anyone who wants to do some team-up, hit me up.

[DannyT]

well I guess we will find out in another 4 days when the 10 weeks is up...

[z0sa]

A couple ideas for polls:

1) Fantasy draft or not? I think this is the most important decision regarding the league.
2) How many games?
3) What difficulty level?

Koriwhat, are you going to keep some sort of standings on the page, statistics maybe, etc?

edit: anyone else been able to find a total league stats page on association mode? cuz I havent, and flipping through teams that only tell you the top 1-2 players in each category doesnt help me at all. 2k8 was waaay better in this facet.

everything from league settings, game sliders, ect will be in the polls and whatever comes out on top with the most votes will be the route we go.

i am kind of torn between fantasy draft and the teams as they are now. i am leaning more towards leaving the teams alone and just ball your heart out with what you got instead of ballin' it up with the dream team. of course though the polls will decide ultimately in the end.

---

i am planning on stats for the league, sure. how i go about that is another question though. i haven't looked into setting up any sort of statistics type script or anything yet. little by little i am getting everything together and i am sorry it's taken a while now but i've been a bit busy and i do have a love for money.

anyhow anything else?

[MaNu4Tres]

Who wants to run ? lol

[SpursFan0728]

hey for all you gamers out there

I have a short question I hope some of you could answer it.

While I am playing association, am I allow to join a game while it is simulating?


In other words, am I allow to skip and play a certain quarter?

Thanks for your help

[z0sa]

I'm fairly sure you can, there's the full game simulation and the one wher it gives you the box score and play by play as time passes so you can make more "active" coaching decisions while simulating. I'm pretty sure you cna jump in the middle of a game during this mode.

[SpursFan0728]

Hi z0sa thanks for your reply

The mode that you are talking about only allow me to "sim quarter by quarter" or the whole game. I couldn't find any instructions where it says i can join game

[MaNu4Tres]

whose down to run

[DannyT]

manu for tres any time you see me on at night and wanna run just send me a message....come on man....you know Im looking forward to playing you cats....and so lets move the discussion on the league forward to what time are we setting the draft ....on a saturday or sunday would work best for me....

[MaNu4Tres]

aer u on?

[Agv21]

I am freaking out because I don't see my name on the website and I thought I signed up for the leage!!! Am I just being a drama queen??

[MaNu4Tres]

who wants to run?

[koriwhat]

UPDATE:

ok people here's my cry for help... seeing as i have been swamped with work lately i haven't had the time to do anything other then work. i desperately want to get this league going and maybe polls aren't the way to go... any suggestions?

the site will still be going up whenever i get some free time to work on it but at the moment i have my hands full with this client of mine. i ain't bitchin' about this client cause i am making good money but damn i feel as if i am losing it with all this work that is coming my way.

anyhow i didn't want to leave you all in the fog so that's pretty much what's up with me right now.

[DannyT]

what you need us to do....lets just set a date a pick teams....as we go along we can tweak if we dont like something....lets hurry up and draft save the page for later wheny ou can post the standings and player of the week type shit....lets just draft

[MaNu4Tres]

Can we just set up the league already ...I vote for fantasy draft and superstar difficulty. Keep sliders at default and lets go to war. Enough already...lets start this shit

[dastrey]

I agree we need to get the ball rolling. We need to vote on 2 things to start off.

1. We need to figure out if we are having a draft or just picking teams.
2. We need to pick a date for it.

1. I vote for a draft but agree that picking teams will be easier.
2. I am available all day Tues/Thursday's. Any other day after 8pm. I recommend the 23rd.

[DannyT]

anyday after 11pm central time or anytime this friday saturday or sunday...we are doing fantasy draft the order of the picks should be made random by the league system...and we go from there...I agree superstar level 5-8 minute quarters or more Im down. just start the league or if you need to once o us can start it...just inbound the ball I wanna run:tu

[DannyT]

seems thats the only way Im gonna get to play against manny4tres cause he wont play me

[DannyT]

this weekend lets do it

[ClingingMars]

Picking teams will be INFINITELY easier.

-Mars

[DannyT]

but its not as even that way sir....there are not ten championship teams out there

lets draft this weekend sometime...

[DesignatedT]

a draft would definitely be better if everyone can participate..... i say we set a draft date a week or so from now so everyone knows when and gives them time to prepare to make it. maybe a sunday? or something so knowone is at work. im pretty flexible especially right now during the break but if we could set a date soon im sure most people can try to reserve that time slot.

[z0sa]

Sometime between Christmas and New Years, everyone's got a day off in between then.

[DannyT]

28th of Decemeber hows that?

its a sunday...there prolly some footbal that day so maybe sometime in the evening when things settle down...hows that sound....lets make this shit happen...KW needs some help. I am down to make the league and send out the invites tonight if he cant do it....let me know

[koriwhat]

28th is cool with me.

[dastrey]

The 28th sounds good if you can make it 8pm or later.

[koriwhat]

dannyT. take over for me as admin and create the league and whatnot, send the invites, and i will take care of the site once things settle down for me in the next couple weeks.

i think i was getting to concerned with being fair to you all by suggesting polls. i think default sliders and the toughest level like hof or whatever it is will suffice. it's fair to me atleast.

i will definitely make time for the league but damn doing all this work lately has burnt me out when it comes to working on anything computer related.

[DannyT]

I will work it right now homie....everyone check for invites or atleast a text about the league....you have to go to xbox live in nba2k and then click on leagues and invites and it should be in there gie me a few hours to get my mind right and thn set this up....holla at cha boy:lmao

[kcplayboi_26]

ill prolly be on tomorrow

its set to either 30 or 40 games...that way we can get a good grip on what we like and dont like...8 minute quaters on superstar. fantasy draft, trades, injurues. 14 teams in the league 8 make the playoffs all series are best of 7. sliders were set to default. that the only thing I was shady on...but I said fuck it. I have asked for this to be moved to the other forum and to have it stickied so that people are aware of the draft date

28 dec 2008 at 2200 central time

I will let you cats fight for the spurs I took NYN


good luck

time change time change time change for the draft on sunday

[DannyT]

make sure you dont leave those people out who arent on the list on the website right now.

sorry dude unless some of those people on the list dont sign up its set to the 14 on the page, but thats another reason I made it 30 games so those who didnt get in can get in. 30 games should take us something 9 months to do....see you all then :tu

[Agv21]

Can we do the draft this Sunday?? I am going home for Christmas and I wont have my XBOX but I REALLY REALLY want to be in the league!!! Does Sunday night work for everyone??

[DannyT]

So thats next Sunday. The Sunday after Christmas. Not this Sunday but NEXT Sunday. So in other words its not TODAY its the one week from now. So let me get this straight when is the draft?

Last I checked theres still 5 players that need to sign up....KW is one of them dude I would hate for you to be the creater of the league thread and not make the league please sign up so we can avoid this situation. Also I dont know how AG got into the league but he must of searched for the league cause he's in and is taking someones spot...fuck it I just want this thing started its 30 games and then playoffs...please the last five sign up so we are set for next Sunday night

how do we sign up man... all the way in the 3rd page of this thread i put my gamertag and i got screwed anyway... i just wanna start this bitch!

as much of a rush that you are in I am giving the people on the page first chance to sign up man. I know it sucks but KoriWhat got busy and couldnt add you all to the list. Sorry man. You will just have to wait till the next league and there will be one cause this is just a trial run...a 30 game league....look if theres an empty slot you will be the one to get in....I will PM you by sunday to let you know or not....the drafts not till next sunday(28Dec) so theres really no rush

[DannyT]

if someone knows how to boot people let me know but I checked the help ticker and it only lets me view there CG.

[DesignatedT]

Is the draft order from My Leagues correct?

If so I got Number 2 pick, damn Spurs I thought they were always good for stealing number 1 :king

[kcplayboi_26]

yea i think its right

[DannyT]

yes the draft order is correct and yes I fucked up after getting my ass handed to me last night I set up the draft and maybe I was not in my right mind because my ass thought today was the 29th and was too lazy to check so yes the draft is set but its set for tomorrow night at 1030

and what I ment by not pulling it out is that the whole game it was close and just in the 4th they went garbage and your dee stepped up the game was always in reach till like the quarter

[koriwhat]

If so I got Number 2 pick, damn Spurs I thought they were always good for stealing number 1 :king

haha. you're the man z0sa!

[MaNu4Tres]

since the cowboys game is over....WHO wants some?

[DesignatedT]

it says the draft time is set up for like 330 a.m or sum shit. might want to change that so it doesnt start and randomize our teams.

[MaNu4Tres]

that would suck

[MaNu4Tres]

so it says 3:30 am central time...and on 12/29?

[DesignatedT]

yea i think thats what it said

[MaNu4Tres]

double check i can't get on right now im playing poker

[DannyT]

might wanna make sure your time is set right on your 360


it said 2230 for me

[z0sa]

might wanna make sure your time is set right on your 360

ps: draft is tomorrow dannyt?

[z0sa]

Draft is tonight.

[z0sa]

draft started early for some reason, and the cpu drafted 3 pgs to start with.

[crc21209]

I know what the fucks going on my X-Box said 10:30 draft time I got on and it was at Round 5 already!

[koriwhat]

well i guess i missed it... :(

fuck!

[crc21209]

Well I totally fucking missed it but I guess it could be worse I ended up getting Bibby, Kobe, Caron Butler, Pau Gasol, and Alonzo Mourning as my starting line-up. Off the bench with Andre Miller, John Salmons, Corey Maggette, Udonis Haslem, Jeff Green, Al Harrington, and Willie Green. Could be worse i guess right? lol

[MaNu4Tres]

i really wish there was a way we could drop and add players who weren't picked...I have 4 undersized pgs that the computer drafted for me.

[MaNu4Tres]

anyone interested in Jameer Nelson/ Nate Robinson/ Monta Ellis? they are on the table

[DannyT]

it fucked me up too....i got in and it was 5th round and I was like wtf I figured maybe i missed the first round but it was 5 rounds into the shit....i was pissed too dont know what happened.....i wasnted robinson but them it picked dj aug instead...oh well fuck it....i dont know what to say other that its finally started and I some what picked my roster...im hopefully off of work tomorrow so maybe we can run some mad games tomorrow....

[MaNu4Tres]

[DannyT]

[DannyT]

[MaNu4Tres]

ill be on in 5 ...u want to run a custom match with our teams?

[DannyT]

[MaNu4Tres]

[MaNu4Tres]

custom game?

[z0sa]

I got steve nash if you got a badass 2guard ... lets make a trade

in all honesty, my team fuckin blows ... cpu draftin 3pgs in the first 3 rounds fucked me over

[koriwhat]

yeah tell me about it... duhon, kidd, west, and i think i got another point as well. duhon and kidd are my 1st and 2nd unit though. fuck west!

i don't remember my whole team but it wasn't that bad from what i do remember.

I got shaq and Jermaine O'Neal besides cp3/nash/billups in 1st three rounds ... not horrible. Starters are
CP3
JR Smith
Shawn Marion
Jermaine O'neal
Shaquille O'Neal





TexasWreckShop dominated me 85-70 last night still. GM z0sa gonna have to be making some moves is all that means.

seriously, who wants nash/cp3?

[MaNu4Tres]

brand for J oneal straight up?

[DesignatedT]

i missed a few rounds but i could use a big... got a bunch of gaurds... baron davis,deron williams, rip hamilton, stackhouse,

willing to deal hit me up on here or over the game. im the wizards

[koriwhat]

if anyone has GH3 i'll trade ya!

btw, any ideas for the site? anyone? layout, etc....? anyone know of any stat tracking scripts i could use perferably mysql/php driven? i am also thinking about putting up a scheduler to where we can input our schedules for upcoming games and determine the best time to play. stuff like that.

[z0sa]

brand for J oneal straight up?

I like having size ... even with a high block skill Brand probably gets abused down low because 2k goes off of player size as much as anything (see Yao and his low layup/dunk scores ... hes so tall they didnt need to give him high ratings)

if anyone has a perimeter scorer (allen, pierce, manu, etc) I will gladly trade a higher rated PG in nash or cp3 for them

[koriwhat]

i'm gonna be out of the playoffs like the cowboys seeing how i suck online! oh man i finally got a chance to play last night online with 2k camera and wouldnt you know i had to get an opponent with one hell of a laggy ass connection so buhbye i went. it was so horrible trying to play that game with that dude. horrible! anyhow thank god 2k camera is in online play now.

ah i am so excited that this league has started and i will make a better effort of staying on top of things... damn my new client and all this work he has me doing but hey it could be worse i could just be playing video games and not banking it right now. i gotta learn to manage both my time with the league and with this client.

good luck to all of you in the league though! i gotta really start practicing the game more and not just vs my buddies who come over because they aren't competition at all except one of them and he only wins occassionally, usually when i am drunk & thrown.

GH3 = Hill? is probably a free agent since there were only 14 picks per round as opposed to 30.

I can usually play any evening 7PM and past

[koriwhat]

you got it!!! THE REAL DEAL GEORGE HILL!!! GH3!!! 3 Exclamation Points Always!!!

can i pick GH3 up from the FA pool? i've never played in a league before, i'm a little stupid about what we can/can't do in the league.

[z0sa]

CP3!!!

You should be able to. I have never played in an online league, but in usual fantasy draft, everything is possible.

[koriwhat]
