New MG-PS3 Deadline: 12 Games By September 14th

Rookie MS Member Number of posts : 243 Registration date : 2009-07-26

September 14th = 12 games

This is an official reminder from the MG league commissioners that everyone will be required to get in 12 games by Monday, September 14th. If you see yourself unable to do so, please feel free to contact either Commish Eggz or myself. We will then discuss in private with you with what the next course of action should be.

REMEMBER, the season will officially conclude on Monday, September 21. This 12 game deadline will allow you to stay on a comfortable pace for the season's end. If you can only get 10 or 11 games in by our September 14th deadline, but honestly feel like you can reach 16 games by the 21st, again let either Commish Eggz and I know and we'll see what we can do.

We're all trying really hard to reach 100% completion - meaning every single owner plays their 16 game schedule. That would be an AMAZING accomplishment and would establish ourselves as a true legit league. Believe me when I say the MG name is thrown out there on various madden forums, and a 100% would look very impressive.

On that note, also remember that the amount of games you get in also dictates whether or not you get into the playoffs.

I REPEAT - THE AMOUNT OF GAMES YOU GET IN ALSO DICTATES WHETHER OR NOT YOU GET INTO THE PLAYOFFS.

We WILL award those who show activity. So for those with good records, but don't have a full 16 games in by season's end, you aren't necessarily home free. The amount of games you get in WILL ALSO help decide your draft position.

If you find yourself having trouble getting in touch with your opponent by season's end, please get in touch with Commish Eggz and I and we will decide whether or not to grant an exception. But be forewarned, we're always working to find replacements to make sure you never have trouble finding a game.

Good luck to everyone. And let's keep it going strong.

Let's say the playoffs started today. You would NOT get in if there were 6 or more teams in the AFC with more than 8 games played. We say that since you played 8 games yourselves.

However, let's say you lose your remaining games and finish with 1-15. You will be eligible to be put into the playoffs if there aren't 6 other teams with 16 games played like you. Of course, like noted above, exceptions will be handed out if owners take the initiative to contact a commish.

For example, if owners are having trouble finding their opponents, Eggz and I will immediately get into contact with your opponents to make sure games get set up. Of course, the sooner you let us know about your issues, the better. Don't expect any help from us if you ask at the last minute.

OF COURSE, don't aim to just complete your games, try and win them. LoL .At the current pace we're going at, people will get these games done. And at the pace Eggz and I are finding replacements, you shouldn't have too much of a problem finding games.

We understand this does have gray areas, but if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact Eggz or I

remember, make posts. directly contact your opponents. e-mail them. you want to get your schedule at 100%, and we want our league at 100%.

but be patient, even though we want to finish every season as fast as we can, we don't want to force people to play when they don't want to.

im also having a little trouble finding my opponents, the ones who are online never respond whether they want to play or not.

try scheduling a time on the forums, that way we can all see who is failing to make themselves available.

if we see someone set a time to play and they fail to meet that time, and that happens on multiple occasions, we will find a replacement immediately.

lol, one of my opponents will always say yes when I ask to play him, but he will sign offline after he finishes a game.
