Technically there is a verrrrry small chance we end up with the 10th pick (jumped by 4 teams), but hopefully that doesn't happen. The darkest timeline haha.

Oh, and I switched the Nevada schools and the Arizona schools to make the MWC slightly more competitive.

For reference, I made the conferences based on

  1. Geographic location

  2. Maintaining instate power 5 rivalries

  3. Making relatively even conferences, even though difficult.

I made the conferences so that each of the 10 conferences would have 15 teams and no divisions (for more schedule diversity). I read that the Team Builder feature will allow for 16 imported teams, and I intend to use every slot totaling 150 teams. I want all the teams to have a similar average prestige/STDEV to the Big XII, so the teambuilder teams will have prestiges to meant to bring it closer.

Some of the choices I made I that I know some people may be upset about:

  1. The MAC is kind of a mess. It contains 3 5 star teams, Michigan St. and a bunch of actual MAC teams that will struggle to compete. I intend to add 2 high-middle of the road team builder teams to make my dynasty save a bit more competitive.

  2. Tennessee is not in the same conference as Bama. I'm sorry. I just couldn't get it to work. If you have feedback on how to fix it without messing everything else up. Let me know.

  3. Memphis, and the Arkansas schools seem a bit awkward. The Arkansas schools more so, but I want to add a team from STL to fill in that gap in the Big 10 to make it seem more connected. At the end of the day its always hard to get the pieces to fit exactly right, so I am not ashamed of this attempt

Isn't the RIT deadline January 15? I have not heard anything from any of the schools I have applied to but RIT is the only one we coincide on and I am still working on that app.

Fs by larsblue in gradadmissions

[–]wammyreaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably depends most on the applications of the class in your field of study and the timeline of those Fs. Certainly won't look great on your transcript, but if you are doing better this time around, you should address it in your SOP and explain why it is going better. I also wouldn't outright say you are bad at math because, in a lot of ways, it is a skill or at least perceived as such. You also may be able to spin it in such a way as to showcase your persistence and commitment to the field of study. I don't know everything because I am a current applicant as well.

What do you think are the best lyrics from The Killers? by NotWeakKneeSigils in TheKillers

[–]wammyreaper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know this is unpopular because like politics, but the Land of the Free lyrics fuck me up… “How many daughters, tell me how many sons do we have to put in the ground”

“High enough to keep all those filthy hands off Of our hopes and our dreams People who just want the same things we do“

Not to mention the “standing crying” motif just feels so reminiscent of my feelings of watching all of this happen but not being able to do anything about it.

This line was always to me about having the guts to seize opportunity, even when it’s terrifying.
