Season 1: Smack Talk

Post by Vardaen » Wed Sep 19, 2012 5:24 pm

Every good FFL has to to have some smack talk, be it for match ups, player mistakes, or just general football hooliganery. Let's use this board, and don't cry you babies when I destroy you week in and week out! Muahahaha.
Let's try and stay on topic however and not get personal, or outside the scope of the thing. No need to do any permanent damage to someone's mental state!

Totally missed that one.

We got the Giants and Carolina tonight. Check your rosters you pansies! You might have someone playing in this game.

When do the players get locked in? For example, you have a benched kicker playing tonight, but none of your other players. Does that guy get locked/can't be put into your lineup before game time?

Good question. I was wondering about that too.

They should be locked in when the game starts.
So, when a game has started in which one of your players takes part you can't move them any more.

@Max, Thanks for the info. That's what I assumed, but just wanted to check.

Okay, next question. The Out, Probably, and Questionable status.

Does Probably mean like 75% chance of playing and Questionable means like 50% chance? I just wanted to understand how they are using the status nomenclature. Just wanted to verify that Probably is more likely to play than Questionable (regardless of actual %s).

Yes. Really, it doesn't mean anything, though. YOu just have to wait until the active's list comes out about a half hour before the game.
