First, the play type was selected - it happened to select outside run on this spin (15% probability). Now,
you only had two outside runs in your game plan, both were in 1RB/1TE/3WR personnel, which you had at 10% - however, since these two plays were the only plays available to choose from, obviously one of these plays were called. So, there was a 15% probability - or more than one in every ten plays - that one of those two outside runs would be called.
Hey Setherick, you know I love you, but I don't want to read this message, it contains high level strategies that I may or may use against you in 75... thanks...
Ok Mr Bakr, we have to talk. Somehow I've been invited to have a team in this wonderfully elitist Private 75, which is fantastic, but I find myself in Setherick's division, and the above quote makes me uneasy.
I've played in many different online sports management games, and there are 2 ways to play them: You can 'play the sport', in this case football, or you can 'bust the code', which is where you find a discrepancy in the coding, (they are always there) and try to find advantage that wouldn't work in real life. I prefer 'playing the sport', I'm kind of sports nerd.
Here's the problem: Setherick is only using 2 outside runs, the most successful runs in the game. I have 40 plays in my offensive game, fool that I am, because in actual football you can't have success running just a few plays. So I have 2 choices: I can 'play football', lose to Seth-i-poo twice a year and never make the playoffs, or I can 'bust the code', and drastically reduce my playbook. I'm leaning toward the latter, I like it when my opponent loses, it means I've won.
Now, I've heard that in the new engine defenses smarten up to an offense using the same play over and over. Can you confirm for me that, say, at some point in the second quarter, my MLB is going to say to my defense, "Hey, that clown has run that outside in 113 like 10 times. Let's cram it down his throat!"? Thanks in advance. ANd thanks Setherick for not reading this...
