Hey flexmaster

Can I change my map to 1961 Berlin ESC, foggy, chained?

by **CaronylKluster** on Sun Oct 11, 2015 3:48 pm

Hey Flex,

I really like your tournament. Sorry I didn't sign up for earlier ones. I was thinking about the home maps for certain teams. Here are some suggestions for next year so there are not so many duplicate maps in a Division. I know some of the suggestions are already out there. I also realize that teams could move around by this time next year. Hope you don't mind me recommending.

AFC West
Oakland Raiders - USA West instead of San Francisco?

AFC North
Pittsburgh Steelers - USA New England or Rail USA

AFC East
New England Patriots - 13 Colonies
Miami Dolphins - possibly Tribal Florida or Cuban Missile Crisis or USA Southeast or Operation Drug War
Buffalo Bills - USA New England

AFC South
Tennessee Titans - USA or USA Southeast
Jacksonville Jaguars - Tribal Florida or USA Southeast

NFC West
St. Louis Rams - USA or Civil War or Prohibition Chicago (it's close to Chicago) or Rail USA

NFC North
Green Bay Packers - USA or Great Lakes or USA Great Lakes
Minnesota Vikinngs - USA or Great Lakes or USA Great Lakes
Detroit Lions - USA or Great Lakes or USA Great Lakes

NFC South
Atlanta Falcons - Civil War or USA Southeast or 13 Colonies
Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Tribal Florida or High Seas (Buccaneers?)

Thanks I like the suggestions...will definitely take them into account.

BTW...I'll open sign-ups for my college basketball season in a few weeks, so join in on that if you like

by **flexmaster33** on Sun Oct 18, 2015 5:16 pm

Scoreboards through the first three weeks are now available in archives.
Sorry for the delay ... had to recreate some football files.
I'll work on fresh standings, weeks 4 & 5 scoreboards and getting week 6 matchups out tonight.

by **flexmaster33** on Tue Oct 27, 2015 5:57 pm

standings updated and week 7 games sent out...it appears we have a couple freebie players who are a bit behind, so be patient in those cases and please play as quickly as possible if you are a silver player.

Week 8 games will be going out in a few days. Good luck all as we near the mid-season point (the NFL season always goes by so fast).

Hey all...some of you are already aware, but I'm heading into my last week of sign-ups for the 2015-16 College Basketball season (my favorite tourney of the year). If you are interested in taking part, here's a thread to that tourney.

Standings updated through week 8 finals...New Orleans (7-0) and New York Jets (3-0) are the final unbeaten teams.

We have a few teams lagging behind on play...do your best to catch up...I think many of you have bye weeks ahead that should help in that process.

by **flexmaster33** on Wed Nov 11, 2015 2:51 am

Scoreboard updated as we hit midseason with New Orleans as the only remaining unbeaten.
If you are a freebie and you are more than a week behind schedule, please put forth an effort to get current on your maps.

I'll be sending week 10 games in a few days, as I aim to get us active in the games the same weekend the real games are going on.

Hm, already two losses for Carolina Panthers, not the norm.

by **flexmaster33** on Wed Nov 18, 2015 3:22 am

Standings updated and we've got division leaders starting to separate themselves.

by **iAmCaffeine** on Thu Nov 19, 2015 10:44 am

Still waiting on Washington.

by **flexmaster33** on Thu Nov 19, 2015 5:35 pm

yes, he's expressed that he's working to get caught up, although he's been trapped in a longer than expected multi-player that has him a bit behind pace.

by **flexmaster33** on Sat Nov 21, 2015 3:36 am

I'm out for Thanksgiving week, so I sent out the Turkey Day games tonight and will get the rest of Week 12 out when I get back in town next weekend.

by **flexmaster33** on Thu Dec 03, 2015 2:34 am

Scoreboard and standings are updated...getting close to some teams clinching playoff berths and we still have New Orleans chasing a perfect season.

by **flexmaster33** on Tue Dec 08, 2015 3:28 am

standings updated

by **flexmaster33** on Mon Dec 21, 2015 3:49 pm

Standings updated...week 15 games have been sent out.
Be patient over the holiday period as many are traveling about

by **flexmaster33** on Wed Dec 23, 2015 4:33 pm

Playoff chase is still pretty wide open as we head into week 16. Good luck all.

by **flexmaster33** on Fri Jan 01, 2016 4:09 am

4 playoff spots decided...eight still up for grabs as we head into week 17. The AFC is especially tight with less than 2 games separating all four teams.

by **flexmaster33** on Sun Jan 03, 2016 6:59 pm

Playoff picture is clearing up...San Diego has locked up home field for the AFC playoffs closing in on a 13-3 record.

by **iAmCaffeine** on Mon Jan 04, 2016 11:27 am

Had a very disappointing season this year.

by **flexmaster33** on Mon Jan 04, 2016 1:11 pm

Still a likely playoff team I think

by **flexmaster33** on Tue Jan 05, 2016 8:04 pm

Still waiting on Week 17 to finish and to sort through tiebreakers, but it appears likely that an 11-5 team will be left out of the NFC mix. Ouch.

by **CaronylKluster** on Thu Jan 07, 2016 3:27 pm

yeah - wish I had been in the AFC this year - I would probably be going to the playoffs!

by **flexmaster33** on Wed Jan 13, 2016 5:27 pm

Here's an explanation of the playoff tiebreakers...a wild finish.

AFC
Jacksonville earned the #2 seed over Buffalo based on a 34-31 head-to-head victory over the Bills.
Buffalo earned the #3 seed over the NY Jets based on a better Divisional record
Cincinnati earned the AFC North title and #4 seed over Baltimore based on a sweep during the regular season.

NFC
Seattle earned the #1 seed over New Orleans based on a better conference record.
Dallas earned the #4 seed over the NY Giants based on a better Divisional record
Green Bay won a three-way tiebreaker for the #5 seed based on wins over Carolina and San Francisco
San Francisco earned the #6 seed over Carolina based on a better Strength of Victory*

* The final spot into the playoffs came down to the fourth tiebreaker with San Francisco holding a .4188 to .4125 edge over Carolina when measuring the records of opponents they beat during the regular season.
