Hey guys!

I'm actually thinking of commishing a carousel league. Right now it's me and a couple other goons (Cletus and Dio). We'd love to have you two join our efforts.

E: Actually, there's 4 of us now.

Good deal.

I've set up the dynasty so we're just logging in and choosing teams now. We have another dynasty (ACC) to keep us busy until you're ready to join.

I've actually been thinking of adopting sim style. The only issue I have with it is not allowing HUNH, and if someone is trailing late at the end of the 3rd.

Let me see if I can get my hand on the rules and I'll modify them. We could also take a vote on HUNH, specifically.

Well sim rules for madden on that topic would probably be vastly different from the college game. It's a lot more prevalent at that level.

I was never going to accept those rules at face-value anyway. Here's where I've landed with HUNH:

quote:

No Huddle is only allowed in the following situations.
- Any Quarter - Down 17, or one full drive per quarter
- 2nd Quarter - 2 min and under, or one full drive
- 3rd Quarter - Down 17, or one full drive
- 4th Quarter - Down Any Amount, or one full drive

Think this is enough freedom to not stop someone who thinks they're in a groove or has the opponent on the ropes, but also prevents anyone from running it 24/7. Also, we know games can get tight as early as midway through the 3rd quarter so I want to be flexible there and let the players play. We have to keep in mind that HUNH can also help someone who's winning to put the game away.

I don't know what is going on in here but it should stop.

Thank you.

In fact, you could close this one since there's another for the actual league.
