If I go down that road, I get booted? LOL

It's a balancing act with how I feel about him. He made a dope-y remark at me in Big Data. I did not like that and in totality I don't buy that I get mashed 40-3 and 40-8 type scores in back to back title games (who can do that to me?) and he didn't even appear surprised.

But to take it at face value and legit - he found a system and dominated with it. Therefore, there's deep levels of respect and dislike. If he came upon it himself 100% then cool I'll continue to battle and try to decipher the bomb's code to victory.

I've seen nom-nom monsters emulate him and that's weak. Try and become a formidable opponent on your own; not copying play by play and key by key what he is doing.

Yeah, tge whole copying someone's gameplan thing confuses me to.

Take you for instance, why doesn't everyone just copy your gameplan?

It's not that simple because I have no access to your rules, play matrix, misc settings, overrides etc etc.

I can confer what I believe you are doing but I honestly could care less.

To copy me 100%...1st you need my player weights exactly then you need to see how I set my depth chart and institute overrides then see how I set up my play matrix by down & distance for offense & defense, see how I set all my misc tabs, know all my rules plus figure out how I scout my opponent and use specific rules to attack them.

You can back engineer some of it but not all if it. And if someone is putting the effort into back engineering somebody's gameplan aren't they in essence putting in the work?

You are a wrestling fan so let me put it in terms you understand!

Through you actions in game and in the threads you are playing the heel! Your username should be Rick Flair! You are the jet flying, limousine riding, best their is, best their ever will be, 18 time Champion!

You have painted a target on yourself and everyone knows how to push your buttons to get you upset.

I've had the same level of success as you tge past 1-2 years, won many Titles even in leagues with you. Yet, I can't remedy the last time somebody came at me after beating me to rub it in. ****, even if they did, I would probable just congratulate them and agree with whatever they said.

I couldn't tell you the last time I beat Armoredgiraffe and he might be the top of the food chain right now...it doesn't mean he is the best ever or the greatest of all time. It just means he is doing the best right now!

That's how this game works, owners fight and claw to the top and sit there for a period before someone else comes along and passes them. It's part of what makes this game great.....other owners pushing me to improve so I can compete against them. Smirt, you were the first standard I had to meet and when I did it was awesome and signified I had arrived.

We in MFN are dealing with a new young wave of brilliant owners, math genies and college students who have studied everyone you, I and all the greats did and they ascended fast. That's great for the game.

Look at the XFL....it's loaned with a ton of great owners capable of winning it all! I love the competition and I could care less how they learned it or what strategy they are using because it's all legal and it's all available for anyone to use.

My gameplan is 100% simple, straight forward and easy to do...it surprises me all the time how successful I am because it's not that hard to do in my opinion once you get all the rules written and the gameplan saved.

I respect that Smirt spends alot of time in his lab fine-tuning his gameplan to each specific opponent...that's awesome. I spend time adding content so my style is to perfect a saved gameplan, save it then use pretty much the same gameplan all season regardless of opponent.

I rate personal success as making the postseason....if I accomplish that then the rest is just roll the dice and hope for luck.

I play MFN to escape, have fun, create, write, play with data and make some friends...some of my passions. I definately don't play MFN looking for respect or to be the best ever.

In the end Smirt, I am your friend and I just wish you would loosen up. Let the anger go and laugh more. You are a fun guy when your not upset or on a Rampage about something. MFN is suppose to be fun and getting angry about randomly generated computer situations can't be good for your health.

That's all I got to say about the subject and now back to normal programming.

(no respect, no original idea)

One I'll battle to the death and respect/the other I'll run him out like B.I.G.



Tbh I actually reached out to ag and over a few days on discord he actually helped me out on the game . Same to legend , Bruno and grandad . I’m a complete newbie to the actual game . I love it now . No idea what happens most of the time but I can actually sit through a whole game and enjoy it . I need help with the game and reached out who I seen was good and they all helped me . I know I’m not good at the game as pretty much every formation I don’t understand . 2 days ago grandad mentioned a postion but didn’t use the word I associate with and I had to ask him to explain .

When I win I don’t think I’ve actually ever rubbed it in anyones face apart from you smirt . That’s only because I see how you are on the forums and I knew I would get a reaction . Ask any other manager who speaks to me on here or discord if I do that to anyone else .

Just face it you got beat by someone who doesn’t even understand how American football works ;)

Also with regards to rules , no one really told me anything I just put some rules I made up thinking they were good and some managers told me if they were good or bad .

Managers like that are what keep new players around not managers who think the game wouldn’t survive without them

I beat ag in a game the other day and before I had chance to see the game he had already messaged me saying gg .

Different levels

Smirt’s game plan is nearly impossible to copy. I’ve studied has logs with great interest and still haven’t figured out everything.

I can tell you most of my gameplan but without all my rules, players and overrides....it's not the same!


There are too many variables for any gameplan to match 100%...maybe you can come close 70-80%

I got beat by a Group Think Tank and I enjoyed how you left MFN-23.

MFN-23 is half-filled with AIs, not exactly the most competitive league tbf

You clowned me one game - bad and I deep leveled it further.

You spurred my crafting more layers.

It's better than every game being a Group Think Tank.

save me, save me - tell me everything to win
