[gschwendt]

That should work, though I likely wouldn't be on much earlier than 9e/8c. I'll post here when I'm up & around.

[skipwondah33]

[JeffHCross]

Ohio State / Penn State is scheduled for Saturday night.

[pearice]

Papa lone star.... How do I contact him?

[marcotte14]

I don't have his number, I contact him through Twitter, he responds pretty quick.

[gschwendt]

Great game skip. I got a black screen so I imagine you did too. I'll put myself on auto.

[skipwondah33]

It went through G, not sure what happened.

Great game as always man. Glad your QB missed on some open throws, but more importantly didnt know Gordon was out...that was huge

[gschwendt]

Yeah... I was hoping I could catch you off guard with him being out. He was injured in the last quarter of last week's game.

Sorry I ran off after we confirmed it uploaded... I had to leave shortly after.

GG as always.

[skipwondah33]

Not that Butler was a down grade or anything, dude is quick. But atleast he went down on the first tackle attempt lol

After the first snap seeing Gordon out it was a relief...then Butler was bursting through the hole.

Scary thing is that one guy we both were fighting for will be backing up Gordon....and he's a faster version of him

NP figured you had to jet.

[JeffHCross]

Ohio State / Penn State is scheduled for Saturday night.Rescheduled for late Sunday Night. #B1G10AfterDark

[JeffHCross]

[JBHuskers]

Server is so funny. I finished my game with Troy and got the commish made changes error so I simmed.

[gschwendt]

Just double checking... are you sure? The website doesn't show a result for either of you.
Yeah, I signed back into the game and it showed the results.

[skipwondah33]

Yeah it showed result on game

Spesking of the website, i havent been able to scout for weeks now. Doesnt display any skills but takes the points. So i have to do it on console

[gschwendt]

Yeah it showed result on game

Spesking of the website, i havent been able to scout for weeks now. Doesnt display any skills but takes the points. So i have to do it on console
Yeah, it seems to start doing that late in the season. And if you go back and look on the console, the scouting results aren't stored.

[pearice]

I don't have twitter, so I guess my game against him will be simmed...

[pearice]

And it's a huge recruiting week for me! 4 visits and two are my most talked about recruits

[skipwondah33]

I dont have his number since my phone is busted up, sorry man

Know someone else has it though

[gschwendt]

I texted their numbers to each other this afternoon and they're in communication with each other.

[skipwondah33]

I texted their numbers to each other this afternoon and they're in communication with each other.Figured someone did, know when I needed it believe you or Jeff texted me quickly a while ago.

The dynasty site is all out of whack, it doesn't show results for most of the games even though the main screen does

[gschwendt]

Texas at USC is the last game of the week.

[JeffHCross]

Yeah it showed result on game

Spesking of the website, i havent been able to scout for weeks now. Doesnt display any skills but takes the points. So i have to do it on consoleFWIW, I haven't had any issues. I've had plenty of other issues with the website and servers lately, but I scouted a lot of players through the web while I was on travel (Week 11). Don't know that I've tried since though.

[JeffHCross]

The dynasty site is all out of whack, it doesn't show results for most of the games even though the main screen doesThe only game missing from mine is you & G....

[skipwondah33]

The only game missing from mine is you & G....Odd, only ones that show completed for me is

Penn State, Ohio State, Oregon and South Alabama

Everyone else's list as still not played.

[JBHuskers]

I got the whole "commish made changes while you were playing" bug after a 38-3 win, so I had to go back in and just super sim, and basically got a similar result.

I worry that it's on it's last legs :fdown:

[JeffHCross]

Odd, only ones that show completed for me is

Penn State, Ohio State, Oregon and South Alabama

Everyone else's list as still not played.When I posted that I didn't realize that USC/Texas had been played, based on G's post above.
Texas at USC is the last game of the week.There's a Dynasty Wire story up for the USC/Texas game. But like Skip said, I don't see a result on the website. Papa said they played, but I'm not sure when.

[JeffHCross]

I worry that it's on it's last legs :fdown:That bug was happening even when the servers were fully maintained.

My personal thought at the moment is that a portion of the servers are offline or acting up, but since the NCAA team is no longer around there may not be anyone that would notice.

[JBHuskers]

Lots of weird things happening all at once though. Makes me wonder.

[skipwondah33]

Lots of weird things happening all at once though. Makes me wonder.The site is useful, but that part doesn't bother me if it's not maintained.

Now the servers that handle playing the game portion, is another story.

Let's hope just bugs happening..

[JeffHCross]

Lots of weird things happening all at once though. Makes me wonder.Agreed. That's why my thought is that it's a portion of the servers that are down. Without knowing anything about their architecture, I assume they have multiple servers that can handle the incoming requests or updates. If a portion of those are down and requests do a round-robin load balance, some requests are going to hit those down servers.

It's like that one year when some ODs couldn't even log in but others saw no issues. It was all about where your OD was stored.
