it's not about winning... not this season at least. we all want to win and that's understandable.
i still want in the playoffs and into the finals but if i don't get there i'm not going to cry because i know working out now will benefit us all come season2.
i think this is what people are forgetting.

you quit without even playing the whole game because you're worried about your record? then you down on me for changing the settings without saying a word? exactly... i wanted to see what would happen and see if things were more fair, which if you look at the stats they were for those 2 games. it's not fair to suggest the change of the sliders is total if you didn't play a whole game to begin with.
plus i wanted to the sliders changed without anyone's knowledge to see how they would react without bias opinions. the thing is you can view the settings and you can change the settings and that to me is a bit worrisome. it's not worrisome to me that you are an admin, but not pm me saying "hey man why'd you change the settings" before you changed them back is a bit of a concern to me and the league i am trying to create.

Yeah man I dont wanna argue with ya either I know what you mean bout ppl cheesing its stupid and frustrating when ppl pull that. But ohh ok I thought maybe you just meant the speed man but I'm cool with whatever changes you make I can adjust, if your a good player, you can adjust to any style. So yea man...
Yeah I want in playoffs too but like you said its just league season 1. But should be a good playoffs. In the East the front runners are the Bulls and Raptors with me (Heat) and Hawks in 3rd and 4th. In the West the front runners are probably the Jazz and Blazers with the Spurs and you kori (Rockets) right there also. Should be some good ball...
i have gone from total blow outs to winning a good % but that has only come with winning against 4 people so not much to say about my true %. i hope i have come quite a ways in my playing style and i hope i do get into the PO and finals but i ain't banking on it and i'm not worried one way or the other.
i just want to see us all play a realistic game and all of us have fun while giving our inputs now before this season is over and there's no criticism good/bad to base our season2 on.
----
one thing's for sure though... i like the game with 8 min qtrs. some might think it's too long but i think it's great. we can decide on this too later on before season2. i think you all will be pleasantly surprised when the site goes public here in the next couple weeks.
Yeah man I agree with you I think Ive come a long way 2 I started off like 1-3 or somethin like that lol.
if anyone has anything to say please say it or i will never know how to make this league that much better. speak up! i need input and i can't do this alone. remember that. we are all in this together to make a better overall league.
i feel that the speed needs to change never thought you can do that on this leauge it keeps all the people scoring 60 plus points thats just me i just cant set up anything on defense when players are running across court full blast straight ahead in the paint if thats the since danny put the speed back i think he should also change the fatigue status on players if the run too much they get tired really quick i feel that more realistic play is awsome there has too be a site were it makes this game as real as possible on that note this game would be off the chain im not trying to be narrow minded i just want it to be real life ball of course i have the worst recored but its not always about wining its about having fun and the winnings makes you believe anything is possibe peace guys have a good night love jason
goodnight everyone. see yall tomorrow.
I personally think before changing sliders you need to ask for the members vote first. If you want to stop fast breaks then be more efficient in your offense instead of just jacking up 3's. Theres other ways around stopping teams from going " full blast" than just turning down the game speed.
please dude stop ing crying...please....stop you're killing me...I hope your was just drunk or something....I posted a link for some good sliders check that out and see what you like....believe me I am about realistic ball but that doesn't mean make the game as slow as possible so you can switch who you guard and what d you run before the ball is even inbound....
I have no issues setting up zones or other d's with the speed at 50 or 60....I could have sworn awhile back we agreed on the speeds staying the same....cats going 18 for 18 needs to stop, cats scoring 60, 70, and 100 points on the regular needs to stop.
mutha er have you seen my record? I really hope your ass was just drunk...I quit cause it was garbage sir....if I am running and feel like I am walking then its garbage....if on the very first play of the game I rip dudes PG and have a break away layup and the refs are passing me up then yes we are going to stop that game and ask each other wtf is up....dude that was sooo sluggish it blew my high....so with out your ass saying anything about changing settings of course I went and changed them back to what they had been.
first time I played the dude and was pumped to see how good he was and this happened...you may be right the rest of the setting may have been legit but there no way I was willing to find out with the way it was setup sorry dude....I truly hope someone gave you your baba last night or changed your diaper

everytime someone jacks a three of course after the shot I am runnimg the other way down court snowbirding for a bucket...tell it doesnt happen...what makes it not realistic is when you come back down and jack another three and force me to do it again
If we are all talking about leveling out the playing field, which seems to be the reason for the changes. We mine as well put the gamespeed at 5 percent.
why not just have a separate league for the elite and a separate league for the scrubs then....
I'm not sure how the gamespeed was because I didn't play yesterday, but from the sounds of it from DannyT its more the likely I will not be in favor of the changes. I personally thought the sliders were fine before hand.
my game last night seemed a little slow and my offense wasnt as potent as usual....BUT it made for a really compe ive and fun game!!!
even though I would have been super pissed to lose

Yeah Danny T me and mad surf were running a game at the same time you were before you quit and I agree the game speed was totally slow I would press the turbo button and it just seemed like he was walking the ball up court still so I was fine with the way the sliders were to begin with. And I also think that if your good, your good, you can adjust to any sliders so ppl who are complaining about the speed being too fast need to just play better D or better O or both.
because it doesn't have to be that way. and calling me a baby and whatnot isn't necessary considering you are missing the whole point of what has been going on here.
i didn't change the league to 50% all the way down to leave it that way... i changed it to see how people react to it and get input so i can start changing the settings accordingly from a default setting to a setting we all can agree on once i get enough criticism.
i'm not here to screw people over, i'm not here to call people names, and i definitely ain't here to play nba jams so if that's the case then by all means dannyt play your game and have fun.
we are blowing this out of perspective...
i saw the sliders at 100% without taking into account what the attributes were. speed was an attribute and i fully understand the outrage over the speed being reset to 50%. sorry! but i still don't think the speed needs to be at 100% and i don't think it needs to be at 50% but we do need to find the right median for realism.
see this is the criticism i am looking for... not all this "this sucks", " the sliders", "blah blah blah".my game last night seemed a little slow and my offense wasnt as potent as usual....BUT it made for a really compe ive and fun game!!!
even though I would have been super pissed to lose
this type of criticism helps me determine things and the other type doesn't do a damn thing for our league.
yes i have and i also understand why you get so upset... what i don't understand about you is the 2 games we played, towards the end you pause pause pause, run through the menus, and try to annoy the crap out of me asking to quit before the game has ended. i can see the frustration and don't say it hasn't happened either.
i'm trying to level this out to a more realistic game but it seems as though you don't want that. everyone else seems ok with me doing what i need to to achieve realism in our league except for the speed which i have already mentioned numerous times over.
what everyone is forgetting here is that this league is nothing more then a test league to make season2 a better overall experience. not doing what i intended in the beginning by changing the sliders accordingly until we find the perfect settings will lead us to more games in the high 100's with people shooting at an outrageous fg %.
kick me off if you don't like me dannyt cause it seems like it's coming down to that which is totally fine with me.
alright alright..........everyone settle down. We all want to play 2k and have fun there is no point in bickering about sliders. IMO the sliders weren't half bad when we started......I played a game after they were adjusted, not bad but def took some getting used to. I can see both of the points of extremely high fg% and high scores due to 8 min quarters....BUT it makes sense to me to make the sliders as close to default as possible seeing as when you play a ranked quick game you get the default settings. I dont think the sliders are going to do anything to level the playing field because if you can't make a three now you wont be any better off if we turn it down. If you're on fire now, well you'll prolly still shoot better than the guy who can't make a bucket............My point is, some people are better at the game than others...the sliders won't change that.
as far as high fg%......it would be nice to tone it down a little....for realism sake. Again, if it's harder for the best person to make a shot then it's also harder for the worst person.......

i agree, cuz online when my shot is off its easy for the person to leak out on fast breaks, so when im off i go hard in the paint to stop there fast breaks. the blowouts could be from experience of playing the game, cuz i knw me and manu had a pretty close game, prolly cuz we play alot. i havent played a game with the settings u guys are talking about tho so i cant say anything bad about it.....
i agree i thought it was good and was kinda like a regular online game right. only thing that i would say is for the fatigue to be up a little more because my starting 5 can play the whole game and not even be a little tired. but that could be because i wanted my team to be young and fast so there fatigue would be better.....
i mean just play regular online games to get better, you will see different ways to do things and different ways to adjust so when it comes to the league games it wont be a problem. i knw i set up my D every time im on defense, right once they inbound the ball or rebound im selecting my D right away
couldnt said it any better
