Today's a bad day for me...I work all day then games...then I play ball tonight..I will be on around 10 tonight or so.
You guys have awoken a giant!!! I got time for ONE game before I watch my Fins who wants some? Time to take the crown from someone.
I just realized this is an XBOX thing.........PS is the madden king!! Who wants the PS champ Fin-Omenal?
Sorry guys. I had to make a new league. The settings were locked in place for the previous one. I sent invites to all of you who were signed up already. I made it an 8 person league. Looks like we'll need one more to fill it. Anyone want to join?
i won one of the best games ive ever won. I've been trying to win a game with every team. This time it was with Carolina. I played this level 1 (with 130 games played) dude who was using the Saints. He got an early 2 score lead because of a fumble. And then proceeded to milk the clock for the rest of the game. I took the lead 17-14 in the mid 3rd quarter. He then had a 5 minute drive and tied the game with a FG. So with 2:38 on the clock, I ****in throw a pic on the first play of my drive. Game over, right? He was gonna milk the clock and kick a FG with no time left. This is where I go to prevent defense. He scored after two runs up the middle. I get the ball with just over a minute. Then I drove down the field with no timeouts and scored a TD on the last play of the game. Overtime, he wins the toss. I held him to 4th and 6 on his first set of downs. he goes for it, FAILS, and i win with a chipshot FG. I then proceeded to send him humiliating messages via XBL. Told him if he's gonna run the clock out, he better learn to do it right. I scored TDs in the final minute of each half.
I hate people that milk the clock......except for in the last minute or so. IMO if someone is milking the clock in the 3rd quarter etc. that tells me they know they shouldn't be winning, and that I am better.
this guy fell right into my trap at the end though. dumbass could have called a QB kneel 2 times and then kicked a FG. perhaps he underestimated my one minute offense, which had already burnt him once. he ran a quarter cover 3 zone the entire time i was in hurry up. Stupid!! I run seam routes, and he should have known that by then. I killed him with it at the end of the first half.
if anyone still wants in, there are 3 spots open. League Name: THE BEATDOWN Password: GISH Griddles? daphins? still interested? to those who are already signed up. you can go ahead and start playing. just enter the league and go to the standings, then select another league member and invite to a league game. everyone will play each team 7 times. I'm using the Ravens, and just won my first game. Looking forward to PWNING the rest of you very soon.
Are you high? 7 games each? No one is going to play 56 games just to complete one season. You need to change it to one or two games max. He'll, we still have 2 thephins.com leagues that never even got halfway finished with one season. Posted via Mobile Device
I officially pWn you. I just finished a 28-24 loss... So get this. 2 min in the game. 14-24, this kid sucks. I'm just playing around, calling odd passes to see what works and what not. A 40+ yarder bomb to Roy Williams... TD the next play. 21-24, with 138 left. Onside kick and guess what? He gets it... I lose 28-24. So unfair, this game is.
You know I find all this very amusing coming from a guy who told us before he started playing that he "was no good" at Madden....hustler....
Take a look at my overall Madden record and tell me I'm hustling The first game Gish dropped me 20-48. (we usually go win-lose-win-lose). The more I play, the better I get though. When you going to be on Enforcer?
Gish had me beat, he was up by 4 with 58 seconds to go. I completed a 50 yard pass to Wesbrook, which led to a 32 second score.
lol. I heard about it. I was up 20-14, Gish had a gew big plays, runs out of bounds at the 1. He didn't know if he should take a knee to kill my TO. He scores easy with run. 50 seconds left, I get a big play, get to the 50. I call TO. Net play I get sacked by Samari olle... Who gets hurt in the process, thus, Gish is forced to use a TO . 32 seconds left. I get Willie Parker to the 30 a play later. He was ****ing pissed lol. I run a fb dive for 9, kick the FG FTW.
Last night I had my biggest comeback ever. I was down 21-0 after 3 minutes, all on fluke plays. Then i was down 35-14 thirty seconds into the 2nd quarter. They guy probably figured I'd quit. WRONG! I had the game tied by the middle of the third quarter, and took the lead with 3 minutes remaining. 42-35. I win. It was amazing.
you guys are ****ing dead now... I've been using classic Madden camera... Action camera is 100% better in every way. I always wondered how ppl could see the other side of the field if you roll out. It also helps you to see angles way better... DEAD. except Aboome.... He's going to go 7-0 against me.
idk i haven't really been playing madden lately so if any one wants a chance at beating me they better come at me now
I got disconnected in the 4th last night after finally taking the lead (I was the Phins against some guy playing as the Titans) I'm guessing he quit as he lost the lead (w*ank*r) but I decided to play on against the CPU and the win and stats still counted!? checked on EA sports world and its still got me down as a win against this guy! - not so p*ss*d off now!
I had a similiar thing happen except the kid went nuts on me that I was playing. I was up 10-0, and it was almost half time when I am guessing the server dropped him, so instead of playing against the computer and getting the win, which I could have, I took the partial stats. Well, this kid sends me a message calling me all kinds of names and saying how he doesn't receive a loss either, and I'm a stupid C......I mean dam, I thought I was being nice by not going through with the game man.....this is why I dont really like playing people I dont know. Everyone's a toughguy on the computer. And my Xbox has been acting a little funny since that game, I am hoping the 2 arent related somehow. I was up on this guy I have never beat, matter of fact he was undefeated, and the stupid thing just froze on us.
It was probably the EA servers - they've been pretty good lately but its not uncommon. I think from now on I'll play on and get the stats! I've had a few messages like that (mainly on the fifa game) for hitting the "quit early" button on the rep profile. Theres a lot of people out there that take it way to seriously! -especially if you reply back pointing out the grammar and spelling issues!
I hear ya. Listen to this... Gish and I played two games yesterday (league games). Our second game was laggy as hell. I was up 14-0 at half. He throws a huge bomb in the 4th, scores. He ends up scoring again. 14-7, I've got the ball and am going to win, just going to hit a FG (42 yarder) to go up 17-7. The game lags during the FG, I get NO POWER for the FG.... I miss, he returns it out to the 33. That ****ing lag... He scores on a big play, 14-14. I drive down the field, take to much time, use a TO because of injury, I don't get a FG try off (not that it mattered, ****ing lag). OT. I kick off, but guess what? LAG. I get no power on the kickoff. He starts at the 50. He throws a pick, I drive down the field, he gets a big sack. I punt on my 41 (4th and 22). Guess what? Yup, you guessed it.... LAG. He starts around the 35. 43 seconds left, he has 3 TO. Long story short, I lose 20-14. I'm now 3-3. I hate EA and their ****ty servers. After the game EA logged me out, I tried to sign in, but EA said I couldn't, the servers were down... Tonight we're going to have the rubber match Gish... This one will not end pretty.
i played 4 more games after that last night. I didnt give up any points in any of them. 4 shutouts in a row. One of them didnt count for some reason.
im 2-3 wins from leveling up. finally. i hit a slump and lost a couple hundred points. level 16, here i come!!!!
here's how it works. It's all about skill points. You start with 500 skill points when your account is created. You receive/lose somewhere between 30-50 points per game. Once you reach 600 points, you are level 2. 700 point, level 3. and so on. so. if you lost a bunch in the beginning and fell down to 0 skill points. It will take a bunch of winning, and very little losing to build up your points again. The good thing, once you level up, you can't level back down, even if you lose all your points. I think after level 20 you need more to level up. The top rated guys have over 10,000 points and aren't level 100, or even close. EDIT: E, you currently have 197 points. Which means you need about 8 wins in a row to level up. But even if you lose one, make sure you win the next one to get your points back. Also, if youre trying to level up. Avoid people who have no skill points. if you see someone who is 0-10 or like 7-35, likely they have no points. so if you beat them, you get nothing. oh, and you dont get points from league games or unranked matches. only ranked games count.
