Very similar in XFL league. GrandadB can tell you about using exploits in XFL.

OK I consider this issue resolved as a simple mistake and declare from here on out that anything that allows DBs to get 30 plus sacks as a DL is probably an exploit, so don't do it.

This was a great experience in diplomacy. Unfortunate you don't have more control mechs Or parameters at hand.

Would you prefer trial by combat?

Yes that would have been preferred. I think the best solution is to require Brian Barry to start at QB next season and allow opposing teams to play their QB on the DE. Poetic justice.

Sure can, but I can also tell you that my use of the exploit, the punt block, was not intentional. There's no way that I would have thought I could have gotten away with that in the first place. I also never use a WR on the DL for the punt return team, which should show in the overide, if it stays the same when you leave a team. I figured out the cause, which was primarily due to the way Ive always been placing players in the ST Rusher box. I also included the four blockers in the group, which is how they must have been selected by the Ai when the DL spots opened up due to injury or non-active players. I may have been the first in MFN to have discover that particular exploit, and when I used it, I would use the overide to put a CB with 80+ speed at the DE rusher position. So, up until that happened and CJ posting the play card for punt return showing gunners/rushers (which I had not seen before) I had been putting all the players for the punt return team in the ST Rusher box, thinking that the first 6 were all I needed to worry about as far as not putting a CB or WR there.

I promise I'm only razing you. It was pretty unfortunate. Onwards and good luck (as if you need it)

Super Bowl XVIII was a coronation for a new league power. After years of being beat down by the Demons and Xtreme, the Seattle Seahawks assembled a juggernaut defense that propelled them to their first ever title. The Seahawks controlled the game from the outset, setting the tone with their ball control offense and stifling defense. The Dildozers' mighty offense was able to keep up early on, thanks to James Brandt and Allen Ramirez's touchdowns, but second string fullback Edward Hales had the game of his life, rushing for 2 TDs in the Super Bowl, and leading the team in rushing yards. The two TDs, paired with a game changing INT by German Amundsen gave Seattle the push it needed to start running away with the game. But steady eddy through it all, playing the game of his life of QB Randall Prosperie. He went 24 of 27, only three incompletions, with 2 touchdowns and no INTs. Randall Prosperie is your Super Bowl XVIII MVP!

And the whole Seattle Seahawks team is one for the ages. One that might be remembered for a long time...

The 2035 regular season is over, and it is time to look back as we head into the playoffs.

On defense, Paul Pitcher, CB, Chicago, was just plain dominant. He had 15 INTs, second most in a season, all time. He's the anchor of the Chicago defense in the fine tradition of George Walls.

On the line, Maurice Dabney, DT, Oakland, was this year's sack master, registering 11 sacks and forming a formidable one-two punch with teammate Richard Ledford, who had 10 sacks.

Running the ball, Edmond Johnson of San Francisco took home yet another rushing title and put up over 2000 combined yards. William Holmes of Los Angeles did similarly and put up another all around season with over 2000 combined yards and 17 touchdowns, putting him over 100 for his career.

Receiving, there were two standout performances this year. In the AFC, Stuart Grizzle of the London Ravens led the team to the playoffs, with over 1500 yards and 20 touchdowns. Meanwhile, in the NFC, second year receiver Jeffrey Lacey of San Francisco built on his rookie of the year season and exploded for over 2400 yards and 24 touchdowns.

But as usual, the MVP talk comes down the QBs. Two time MVP Ernest Williams of Los Angeles once again led the league in QB rating, while throwing 46 TDs and the story of the year has been David Bare of Brawndo Corp, taking over for last year's MVP Brian Roberts and putting up MVP level numbers himself, with 37 TDs and a 102 QB rating, not even playing the whole season. But one quarterback dwarfed the competition, throwing for more than 1300 yards and 10 more TDs than his nearest competitors. All told, he threw for 6468 yards, 56 TDs and a 102.79 QB rating while guiding his team to the playoffs. Your 2035 MVP is Kenneth Rainey, QB, San Francisco!
