Journey to the Hall of Fame (H2H, not the promo)

Did a quick day by day log of my journey to HoF. Since history has been bugged since day 1 for me, I wanted to see my results and where I could improve. I came in expecting to be around 55%, and while I fell a bit short, plenty of my losses were due to tilt or not stepping away when I should have, so it made two really big losing streaks seem a bit larger. As you can probably surmise, the shorter the session, the better I seemed to do. 

About me: TBRunGood 725 Power 83/84/80 HoF 3x Nagy/Hudson 15/15.

New numbers +9050 for W -8700 for L gg with the 350 fans difference.... CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME IF ITS NORMAL???? THIS IS MADDNESS TO BE ABLE TO EARN THAT MANY FANS WITH 350 PER 2 GAMES!

Exactly. Although I believe this is by design.

Here is a loss So this time +9800-8400 = 1400 diff, sometimes 1k diff and other times 800 diff

 No you don't it's 11000 and 7000 for losses. Also I was at Elite II for a bit

Quote from VarriusTX >> I'm doing almost the exact same thing you are TB17.  I'm logging every game, but tracking it by tier and not by day.  I'm only at elite 1 so far (started several days late due to being determined to never play ranked again.... which didn't work out).

My results, interestingly, are very similar to yours.  So far bronze 3 was the hardest tier.  I have a losing record in that tier and all others are winning records.  My longest win streak is 3, and my longest losing streak is 3.  If it's anything like last season (where I gave up at elite 1 after 3 hours of going back and forth), I'm just getting to the difficult part.

 I didn't keep track of power or OVR advantage, will do for next season, this season was mainly just to see what my winrate was I was not focused on who I was playing against, just whether or not I could win at a 55% clip.

Quote from Swaglife81 >> To add, it takes 75-85 wins to get to HOF. Based this off of everyone I talked to about this season. Winning percentage always levels out. Probaly why OP reached it in exactly the middle range of the numbers I just gave. I'm at 62 wins. If my math is correct I will reach HOF at 78 wins give or take + or - 1-2 games. It's truly sad you can predict now within a few games of what it takes to get to HOF. Because it's all preplanned

 this - both times (Season 1 n 3) it took me 77 and 79 wins to get to HOF

 I wish it wasn't this way, and I thought I was better than the majority, but nope, right in the middle as per EA -_-

 Its 11,000 a win in Elite 1 right now

The reward simply isn't there (unless you get the top 100 reward, maybe the second tier reward as well...the third tier probably gets you somewhere between 40-60k coins). 10 hrs....if you are successful like this. I think it took me way more than 100 wins in both seasons to make it to HoF being a mediocre arcade gamer (nothing else is required now that Madden has been stripped of ANY strategic component and that includes those random pressure results). The whole system is just pathetic. I really liked H2H and the strategic part allowed me to compete. I hate OD and I have a hard time writing this after being a Madden player for 25+ years.

150 games x 3 minutes is technically 7.5 hours of gameplay, but when you take into account all of the loading and lag, it's probably around 10. 

The only thing that keeps me going for HoF is the free elite and the fact that I'd be doing absolutely nothing in the game. Right now I'm at that point.

The game is not enjoyable at any point and this grind  only furthered it especially on day 7 when I was just about there and went on the tilt fest.

I've done something similar, as have others, and it seems we're getting near that 50% win rate

Well, I wish I could say that too. Just had another "flatliner"...up by 600 pts. after 55 secs. - did score less than 100 pts. after that and opponent beats me easily. 10th loss in a row...back from Elite something to Gold bottom. Part of it might be attributed to the fact that my f2p team still has gold players on it and my only really good player now gets easily covered in the slot by faster opponents. In well over 200 games my defense always gave up a TD with the very first play except once (pass or run...doesn't matter).

2 more losses...flatliners...and the 200+ streak of opponent opening TDs is alive.
