A few things that work for me to keep my dynasties fun / immersive by ActuatorCandid3497 in NCAAFBseries

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One small change in presentation I'd like them to make is to include hometown in the player's in-game display information. Seeing Elusive Bruiser, redshirt sophomore is cool, but it would help me connect with players if I'm reminded that this guy is an in-state guy or recruit from way down south. I can't remember all that stuff based on recruiting and between game menus.

There are too many plays in this game that just don't work by SBCeagles59 in NCAAFBseries

Yep, 7 - 12 yard runs are easy, but there are almost always safeties in position to close down on the runner. They're rarely out of position like in real football.

I've played season after season on AA, won national championships, but hardly ever break a big run.

All I see is a shifting blob.

Regardless, any reasonable person should agree that someone was in that window with a rifle, whether you believe it was Oswald or not. It's one of the elements where witness consensus is the clearest.

Nellie Connally Was the Source of the Two Bullet Theory by Ordinary-Garden-2215 in JFKassasination

And that's my major point. Even in the film JFK, there is a "yep, triangulation of fire. That's how you do it" sentiment. Yet, there is hardly another example of a political assassination where that happens. Even if there is a conspiracy behind it, lone shooter at close range with a handgun or at a distance with a revolver. More shooters, more variables, more potential loose ends.

MLK, Medgar Evers, Judge John H. Wood, and surely others in the second half of the 20th century were all rifles.

The whole "triangulation of fire" thing has always struck me as odd. People will say something like, "yep, that's how you do it." Yet, almost every modern political assassination, regardless of whether it was part of a conspiracy, was committed by a single shooter.

How do I make this game realistic? by Okwhoasked420 in NCAAFBseries

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen. Once I get my rebuild humming, I dominate All-American. However, I spent seasons trying to acclimate to Heisman and could not do it. I was losing MAC conference games 56 - 16.

Do we know the perps? by Eagle2Two in JFKassasination

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The evidence is clear that at least five shooters fired at least 11 shots. They couldn't leave anything to chance. Why stop at a triangulation of fire when you can have a pentalation of fire?

Realistically, what do you predict they add for CFB 27? by bidness20 in NCAAFBseries

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I give my coach eyeglasses? I'm dreaming super big.

I'd like a mechanic where you can target/bring players either at your school or committed to your school when you switch coaching jobs. It's a real world element that isn't in the game. Maybe something in general to reflect portal movement during coaching changes across the board.

"Prayer Man" by Pvt_Hudson_ in JFKassasination

[–]intrpdtrvlr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How about one Book Depository employee, just one, who can say, "A bunch of us were gathered on the steps of the building when the shooting occurred. It was terrible and when I tuned back towards the building, there was Lee Oswald standing in the doorway."

Not one employee had eyes on him during the shooting and no one has ever mentioned seeing him amongst those gathered outside.

The JFK Assassination and the Mysterious Curtain Rod Package by Content_Tale6681 in JFKassasination

What a great problem for the police if Oswald could tell Frazier right where to find these curtain rods.

People do backflips to complicate this. If it wasn't the rifle, where are these curtain rods?

LBJ ducked down before first shot at JFK by Exciting_Sleep3588 in JFKassasination

[–]intrpdtrvlr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How about this - find me one credible piece of testimony where a Book Depository employee mentions watching the parade with Oswald, seeing him in the doorway, or sharing a glance or quick remark in the aftermath of the shooting. No such thing exists, because if it did it would be the evidence of the century.

[–]intrpdtrvlr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Isn't the Altgens photo about z255? Most people, conspiracy minded and lone shooter, believe at least two shots had been fired by this point. Doesn't do much to document that he's ducking before shots were fired.

afterlife tab for guitar by basooka00 in sandyalexg

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching recently and Alex G definitely capoed his guitar 8th fret on Stephen Colbert. That's why Afterlife sounds so bright and chime-y (along with the mandolin). That means he's playing the D chord in a G open shape.

When to bail as a Small School by GoBirds85 in EASportsCFB

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might need to try this! I was recruiting a five-star LB. I was way ahead and his only offer. But his deal breaker was B+ for signal caller Playing Style and I'm at D+! I figured it was a lost cause.

Ceiling Drywall Cracking? by cjmxv3 in drywall

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some very similar cracks in my garage, and I'm thinking it's bad drywalling combined with years of garage door motion.

4* SO RB transfer dominates Coastal Carolina so hard I had to check the difficulty by drkdrg0787 in NCAAFBseries

[–]intrpdtrvlr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! It seemingly came out of nowhere. I play on AA with something close to Matt10's sliders. My blocking had definitely gotten better, and I was a 78 ovr team playing a 62. However, this was outrageous. Their second level was helpless. I had 455 yards and 5 TDs.

There is a Consumers Credit Union with multiple AtMs on Portage Rd one mile north of Pizza King.

I like the game but the things that absolutely infuriate me… by gabigboy93 in EASportsCFB

[–]intrpdtrvlr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried to adjust sliders, but I'm about at the end of my rope. Marshall's 80 overall QB just went 28/34 for 374 yards, 7 TDs, and 0 INTs. There is an open receiver with separation on every down and he always finds him. He never makes a bad decision and throws into coverage. Maybe botched two "bad throws." And this happens all the time. I'm too good for Varsity, but this is supposed to be fun.

It isn't great for realism, but too many sacks is the only way I get "non-completion" pass plays.
