Quote from bigboybuckeyenuts >> Again, I hope people use their actions to show EA how much they hate this game. I'm glad I'm quitting now. I'm emerging from the lurking shadows to wish you well. I always enjoyed your posts. Good luck with everything! I've been out about 5 weeks and don't regret it (though I still lurk here like it appears a lot of those who leave the game do lol).

Quote from Jehrzy >> Thanks for the wishes guys. Normally I'm a low-key person and wouldn't make a post about leaving, but I thought that it was important for EA to see how many people are just giving up on this button-mashing spam-fest, even guys who have been playing since inception. In fact, our entire league administrative team (3 other admins and the commish) is hanging it up, leaving an uncertain future for or league.   We've had over 75% of our league quit or play barely once a day, and this was after we were competitive in all the years of existence, including a top-50 rank two years ago and finishing a shade outside the top 100 last year (kudos coin-buyers and cheaters for making it so hard for us to compete last year).

So I'm not normally one for "goodbye" threads, but after being here about 2.5 years and lurking for a year before that, I'm a little more involved that I thought I would be back then. So such is life.   After 4 seasons I have accomplished just about anything you can in this game, and it's gotten pretty stale. This whole MM18 experience left a bad taste in my mouth as well, even though I wasn't directly affected by bans, etc. If it wasn't for being a good league and the fact that I would certainly describe myself as "addicted" to the game, I would have left back then. I've spoken a number of times about the addictive aspect of this game, and I firmly believe in it. When I try to contemplate putting another season under my belt especially with the tease that the game has been rebranded and apparently "different", I see myself as not being able to stop if I get involved. So on to other things.   I just want to take a moment to thank some of the great people on Muthead that are not only masters of the game, but very gracious about contributing information. I learned a lot from many of you. The longer I have been here, I have tried to contribute in kind to others. There's a healthy community aspect to the site that's not too common on message boards, and that's to be applauded (the mods do a great job too).

Quote from noahweiss_ >>  EA tends to say one thing and do another. Yes, what they SAY is that you're getting a 50% discount for MC this season. What they DO is double the MC needed for packs in Overdrive lol.

Quote from noregretlife >> Pulled the crappy OG :( :( :( Pulled the crappy C. :( :( :(

Quote from Mabenx >> Quote from dukicat >> "Use your best team to take on opponents in H2H matches on ALL-MADDEN difficulty".   Rewards still seem the same as the past weeks as of yet, which wouldn't make a lot of sense. Maybe some rewards for Overdrive? And let's see if they can avoid a lot of mismatches. The game shuts down before th tournament would end. Playing would be pointless

Interesting that there has been no mention of Legacy in that news feed. I'm sure we will all get to set a Legacy team, but if the mechanics of the game are changing, perhaps there is a chance otherwise?

Quote from nzyowie >> I have Wade in my Draft team this week. Fully trained, he's not so bad, although even then, he still throws out of bounds occasionally. Me as well! He's done very well, but will through OOB on the run at times.

He’s the GOAT at throwing out of bounds.
