*30 Years of DDSPF - White Cornerback - 09-18-2019 If any of you guys haven't read this or this before, you're missing out. A few years ago a user decided to do a hands off sim through madden for literally 30 seasons and we discovered the legend known as Nate Grunhard. This entire idea is inspired by u/prguyhere himself and I've been meaning to do it for the guts of a year. I'll be simming thirty (or possibly more) seasons through DDSPF and giving a season by season/team review. If there's anything you'd like to see added to this in the future, leave them below! Settings are all default, players will be drafted by the CPU teams, free agent moves etc. There are just two settings changed for this simulation, injuries are on and the playoffs consists of 8 teams not the 6 (via force win) for maximum carnage and realism. Additionally, players in the free agency pool who are retired in our league but not in the sim had their ages changed to 50 and their stats to zero so that they're not picked up. (Looking at you, Borkus Maximus III) So we're starting with the newest file (prior to tonights sim), that's S17 Week 12's file. Which means standings are as follows: ![]() S17 Regular Season (2032) To finish off the regular season, week 13 sees SJS defeat COL, BAL easily dispatches NOLA, CHI sees off OCO, AZ wins over PHI by 14 and finally Yellowknife beats Austin 34-17. S17 Playoffs (2032) This means the playoffs is as follows: ![]() Let's sim this. The playoffs hold to form with the higher seeded teams all progressing: YKW>COL 21-19 BAL>CHI 34-9 AZ>AUS 31-27 OCO>SJS 23-10 Which results in the 9-4 Baltimore Hawks facing the Home Field 9-4 Yellowknife Wraiths while the 6-7 Orange County Otters travel to Arizona to face the 9-4 Outlaws. As Leafman would say, Chaos. ![]() While The Yellowknife Wraiths womp the Baltimore Hawks 44-6. The 6-7 Otters eek out a W despite being on the road against the Outlaws. It's a Wraiths/Otters Ultimus final with Yellowknife at home field in the Burial Grounds. ![]() Alas the OCO dream is over as the Wraiths pickup their first Ultimus title since S8. Now onto our first ever offseason. The sim chooses Cooter Bigsby as MVP, OPOY and Playoff MVP. Grithead is DPOY, Easton Cole as OROTY (his player must've got deleted in the sim at some stage) and Honda Edmond as DROTY. Pro bowl is relatively boring, with no real changes anywhere. However this is where I noticed something interesting, prior to the Ultimus game starting OCO RB Apollo Reed fractured his arm which made him miss the final. Additionally Adrian Pitcher broke his wrist which leaves him out for 6-8 weeks. S18 Offseason (2033) Our first piece of information for the new season is that Zobot Runner26 has retired not once, not twice but three times which will surely lead to his jersey being retired twice for Baltimore and once for Austin, a league legend. ![]() S18 Draft (2033) ![]() ![]() With the first pick in the S18 NSFL Draft, NOLA selects Kyle Kearney, SS out of LSU. 76 Overall, 85 speed, 80 agility and 32 intelligence. Incredible. He's already 4 overall higher than actual sim league player Jeff Jefferson IV who's only a 72 so Kearney looks to take the spot. ![]() Art Gonzales, DT out of Murray State. He's 71 overall but has 69 tackling so this might be a great pick. He's actually Phillys best DT in this universe. ![]() Stephen White, RB from Lafayette. 86 agility, 79 speed and endurance while also having 13 accuracy and 28 arm looks to be a stud. He's just two overall lower than Ashley Owens who sits at an 82. ![]() Gustavo Riggs, WR from Mississippi State. 90 agility, 78 speed, 71 endurance. Will likely be third or fourth on the depth chart behind Bishop (98), Forty-Two (85) and Pennington (76) who's overall he matches. ![]() Antonio Trevino, RB from Murray State. He's 76 overall, 85 speed, 73 agility and remarkably 74 strength. He's also San Jose's sixth RB on their roster between Bigby, Boija, Davenport, Orosz, and Waldrop who would be drafted in the second round (with a blistering 90 agility and 65 overall). You've heard of fullback university, it's time for HB community college. ![]() Edward Jackson, WR from Eastern Michigan. 74 overall (5th best WR on the Chicago roster). 84 agility, 74 endurance and 70 speed. He is the wide receiver version of Dermot Lavelle Jr. I don't know why Chicago picked him. ![]() Carl Cummings, WR out of Texas AM. Yes not Texas A&M. I think that's either a typo by Wolverine studios or one of the filler universities which now apparently players will come from. Texas AM it is. 74 overall, 88 speed, 87 agility, 68 hands and 57 endurance. He's pretty good for about one whole play before he needs some air. He's Arizona's fourth best receiver. ![]() Jack Chavis, RB out of Texas AM. Yes Texas AM again, fantastic. He's Baltimore's third best running back @ 71 overall, 85 speed, 84 agility, 78 endurance. For reference, Vander Jones is a 93, Jimbo's an 80. ![]() Donald Mackenzie, RB out of Wofford. 69 overall with 81 agility. Second best running back on the team of the 6 currently there. ![]() William Soriano, OL out of Holy Cross. 71 overall. He's the 7th best linemen on their team. I don't know why the Wraiths picked him at all. Ah well, can't question the champ champs. Rest of the draft? Mostly mid to high 60's across the board. The Yeti did pick up a 71 overall in the third, while NOLA drafted a 77 overall QB to compete with Francisco in the third round. The majority of other teams just drafted mostly 60 overalls with no real sleeper picks. S18 Training Camps (2033) ![]() The closest thing we get to regression and progression in this universe. Okura is an absolute monster in the camps while the sim randomly chooses others to regress. Incredible stuff. Truly inspiring. ![]() In other news, San Jose is disappointed with their 5th overall picks performances in training camp. I mean he's literally the 6th RB on the depth chart? What do you want from him??? ![]() For a reason not known by I, NOLA fans are disappointed with the development of their third round drafted QB, Rob Wallace. ![]() WHY ON GODS NAME DO YOU THINK HE SHOULD BE THE STARTER NOLA FANS???? Simming through preseason found that for whatever reason, the New Orleans Second Line & Chicago Butchers opted to not play in week 4. So they only had a 3 game preseason. Unusual but it's all tactical I'm sure of it. S18 Regular Season (2033) ![]() Heading into Week 1, there's a few major injuries, such as OL T. Amper who's done his MCL. Slim Shady now has a broken skull. Grievous done his ACL, Harrison did his MCL with all other injuries being relatively minor. Shoutout to Jonathon Rice with his allergies keeping him down and Cooter Bigsby having broken his nose, I was looking forward to seeing the 54 overall Zobot Jugsmachine3 lead the Wraiths but it wont be. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Heartache for Arizona early in the season as in week 2, Raymond Vans ruptures his achilles, missing the rest of the season. Balthazar Crindy tears his ACL in week 11. Reese leads the league in yards (3,866) with a 24/10 int ratio. 10-3 record, dominant and looking to do more in the playoffs after last years heartache. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() S18 Playoffs (2033) ![]() We make our way to the playoffs. Who's your money on? Can Jenkins keep up her regular season form for the Butchers? Will Yellowknife and Zobot JugsMachine3 shock the world by beating the 12-1 Butchers despite their own paltry 3-10 record? Will Arizona deliver revenge after last seasons disappointment? Join us in part two for the S18 Playoffs! *30 Years of DDSPF - infinitempg - 09-18-2019 I for one am excited about this, but man the sim's decision making sure leaves a lot to be wanted...
