Work Smarter, Not Harder - 7hawk77 - 08-10-2017 (08-10-2017, 09:01 AM)timeconsumer Wrote:FYI, I track TPE changes via the roster pages on the Index after Monday night games. It's slightly less precise because I can't track partial attribute points, but it's close enough for my needs and is easily manipulated by Excel. Plus it allows tracking by attribute. Yeah that might have been an easier way to do it, but the only problem with that is you have to wait for the first round of games to go through. I think the advantage of this is if updaters generally update on Saturday, you could run this before games on Sunday or whenever really to get current TPE counts. The only down side is if the TPE count on the roster page isn't accurate, obviously my count won't be accurate... Garbage in, garbage out. Anyways, it's finished now so no major work to be done.

Clearly the best solution here is for the admins to give us access to the spreadsheet the updaters use for entering in updates. Preferably edit access. I promise I won't cheat too much.

Did Angus just teleport to that cornerback? Looks like there is now a Forced Fumble and it's recovered by ANGUS WINCHESTER, and he's already in the end zone for a TOUCHDOWN?? and apparently he managed to pick up 4 pancakes en route blocking for himself..."

This morning I ran a bunch of tests on myself to see if it was just a fluke and I was averaging 4.5 pancakes/game and 1 sack per 15 games. Just not my year.

Also, I feel like that shouldn't be the case at all considering most defensive linemen got hit with a speed nerf. Maybe that speed change messed up the DL/OL meta in which you thrived in... I feel like that's my only real guess. :shrug: Work Smarter, Not Harder - Dangles13 - 08-10-2017 (08-10-2017, 09:56 AM)7hawk77 Wrote:That seems really strange. Just the way these sims work sometimes, they aren't designed to have live updates either and that will sometimes work against your build. Work Smarter, Not Harder - timeconsumer - 08-10-2017 No it has nothing to do with the changes to OL/DL because I tested it within our exact current league file. Everyone with their current attributes and usual strategies, etc. Just bad luck. Work Smarter, Not Harder - loco - 08-10-2017 i've been meaning to do this for months! i'll definitely use this, thank you!!!

Well I think that's the whole thing is that last year I was a statistical anomaly. I had the most TPE but not by a huge margin and not enough to warrant my stats being in a huge lead. Longshaw is just getting back to his normal right now, he had a terrible season last year for no reason at all. And now he went inactive right as the sim gods start smiling upon him, poor guy missed his moment! It's not a huge deal. There are more seasons to come. |
