Bad people. Yep.

When I make my game plan I imagine those types and not wanting to lose to them.

Kababmaster. There's a few lovely, aggressive nasty-s out there.

I got mentioned in the greatest of great owners thread? I’m humbled.

B.I.G. was filthy obnoxious in his MFN-2 return, therefore, I literally spat on him due to his conduct. Currently, I'm icing him out. I went defcon as you call it :) and have not typed a word in that league giving him the grey rock (boring him, no excitement) into leaving.

The lab...?

Love me or hate me, at least I work hard and battle with deep rooted strategies.

Greg, I'd be really careful letting any one in from that discord world. Bruno is spamming a current day elite Blondie to beat him and Da Balla came to MFN-23 to try to knock me out. Below is the after effects of a Flat Zone stream. I decimated him in strategy, had a 42/18 time advantage and it took about 5 turnovers and multiple FB Dive halts for me to stop him. A miracle I was able to win any dice roll ...(look below)

Play: Man OLB Flat Zone
Formation: 4-3 Normal
LB: Zone
Sec: Man
In Playbook: Yes
Off Familiarity: -123%
Def Familiarity: 71%

What happens when you see this? The GM can have the worst strategy and know nothing and hang in the game. Also, due to the 123% you incur unfair injuries. I got torn apart viciously with injuries. The engine rewarding a horrific game plan, feeding off the negative % which goes into a stratosphere with each play ran.

Love me/hate me. Understand the discord people are a problem.

Blondie has hinted at this, what I'm about to get into. But first, I'm ok with limited defensive play calls. I do it to survive and I have deep strategy in employing it.

The Essential 1-Play Flat Zone Stream - I'm not ok with. Here's why.

It rewards the cheater and/or a person who is not putting in the work and is attempting to short-cut to victory. I didn't delve into this deeply but at the surface I'm seeing Da Balla 4-0....Bruno undefeated here and there. How does it cheat?

Well, you saw I came out of the game I posted with 123% negative familiarity. Most I ever saw before it was like -80% and between -50-60% when someone leaned on it vs. me such as Ray in Champions.

You hit a point in the game when the cheater has thrown the Flat Zone at you 50x and now each pass play you attempt gets a warning about over-use and the cheater gets sh*t. Every pass play will buoy him/drown you. If you expand out your pass play calls now you have small % usage passes vs. an Incredible Hulk'd Flat Zone, which will make you intercept or your receiver fumble. You have to pound your heavily used plays, taut to survive.

It rewards the cheater and pounds you into negative % **** - deeper levels than Dante's Inferno.

Love me/hate me, like me/don't like me - it's bad. Worst thing ever in the game.

I really wish this game would be more like football strategy in RL.

This is like saying if a couple of people are a problem on the forums that all forum people are a problem. It doesn't work like that. There are a lot of good guys on the discord.

But I am not a fan of people who just use flat zone because it is a solid defensive play that can cover nearly every play well. It is a lazy strategy, but one you can't fault them for either since the play is so powerful and they didn't create it.

A few of them are way too cocky, feel impervious and don't understand the game/didn't put the work in.

Take bleastmode mode, Coach Chris, for example. The guy who told me to join discord so he can talk sh*t to my face. Fast forward, we had a game and he trolled me with everything he had to try and beat me. I beat him. Kept my mouth shut but he hits the board to dis me on how I should have lost. Game has been a bit, therefore, details of what he pulled I'm not going to recall but there was definitely an FB Dive convention - I get why ...and it was a deeply personal game for me. But I kept it in.

He got stupid. Give me a good game and I'd have hit him back with it and went on with my day.

I don't like their attitude, man.

I get it, the way they are isn't for everyone and neither is discord. They were obviously trolling you. I have been around a long time in the discord and some of these guys troll each other. A lot of people in there are great to talk to and are really about learning this game as much as they can.
