One of these 3 will be my next team!

Utah (I've rarely seen a Jazz story here. They are my frontrunners, D-Will, Booz, Okur, Matthews, Gaines, really nice)

Houston (I would like it to be a homage to Clutch's, but if I last for 7 games, seems unlikely)

Dallas (Dirk, Kidd, Marion, Butler, is a great core)

Philly (as my last option... trading Brand away)

Still planning a few sections but I think it's gonna be faster and really better than before.

Lol, thanks man... I'm dropping the preview+recap thing... too much work and not many feedback. Also making the final things in your NCAA players.

If anyone wants to join, I'm giving you time until Friday, when the NCAA season will start! :cheeky:

Nice going so far, as usual the graphics and stuff is on an unbelieveble level. You know why there are always haters and especially in this case (the previous dynasties and stuff). Anyway, I'll put mine in too if there's any point.

Name: Troy Joyce
School: Georgetown
Age: 19
Primary position: C
Secondary position: PF
Height: 7'1"
Weight: 280

Body type/tone: Greg Oden
Strengths: post defense, rebounding, inside scoring, physical abilities (strength, jumping), leadership, blocking
Weaknesses: dribbling, passing, perimeter defense, 3pt shooting, range
Playing style: post up
Background story: Extremely dominant big man from Chicago at 7'1". Often called the next Hakeem Olajuwon or Shaquille O'Neal, although that's probably a bit too much for now and Joyce should be happy to becompared to the Howards of the league in the first place, although the potential to go even higher exists. Great touch from the inside, possesses many post moves and a nice little turnaround jumper. Loves to defend, which is extremely rare for a young player of his talent. Medicore FT shooter at 63%.
Other: African American, cut, muscular bodytype. Has a couple of different tattoos - on his arms, one on the neck, some on chest, back and such. Not too necessary which ones they are. Wears a dark gray sleeve on his left arm, wristbands on right, kneepads and wears Nike Zoom Soldiers.

off-night for Haslem & Wade but all other starters definitely stepped up (espec. Granger 14-15 wow!)

Thanks a lot man. Hoping I can make this one work, if (read below)...

Granger's on fire, one of my new fav players. When he's on, there's no stopping him.

I'm making an emergency backup of my PC right now, don't know what I can save yet :cry: Looks like a virus came on... If I can save my 3 backups of the season, I'll continue, if not, I really don't know...

So this one is over?

Re: .:| RFTA • Back In Black [5-1] |:. Recap vs. PHO

Fri Apr 16, 2010 3:09 pm

LOL. Didn't see this one coming. Don't feel bad though. Bulletz have been sporadic at best, as I just haven't caught the dynasty bug either. Then there are the three other dynasties that have been on-and-off the past few months.

Good news... I was able to use Ubuntu from a CD and make a backup of all my files :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

I'm on my dad's laptop, so just give me a couple of days before I can re-install everything. This Pacers won't stop! :D

I must admit I was already thinking of my new story yesterday. :oops: I saw the screen go all black in a second...

As Lamrock said, I might shelf this one for a while... I really can't think of a layout of my liking... I'll end up stealing one from the HOF...

Re: .:| RFTA • Back In Black [5-1] |:. Recap vs. PHO

Tue Apr 20, 2010 4:16 am

Well, re-installed 2k10 last night and the game won't load my saves. Re-installed 3 times and still won't.

I really don't want to start a new one right now. Give me a couple of weeks until I can figure out everything and I might return. :|

Sorry, but it's funny. :D It took 6 games. :D (game-by-game recaps)

It took 88 games, actually. 82 simmed

Leaning towards a Rockets story but I don't know yet.

If I go with the Rockets then I'm gonna trade Yao, you should know that already man. :lol:

Maybe like this?

I'm very suspicious of your "virus" lol, but good luck with the next team. At least this one lasted a while.

Everyone was suspicious when I ended all 30 stories I did before, Jae... like I got bored, I couldn't keep the layout, or too much work to do... :roll:

Maybe the Ubuntu backup screwed it up? But not likely. Dunno.
:(

ah damn (N) :shake: (N)

trading Yao (especially with that trade which they would NEVER accept since 1) it's ridiculous; 2) you're a conference rival) = FAIL

Tue Apr 20, 2010 9:19 am

Nothing is sure, man :P I don't even know if I'll use the Rockets yet. But if I do, Yao is gone. :twisted:

Damn what happened man? this was your finest one yet. :( You better make sure that you will add our NCAA players in your next dynasty.

Just a little advice, no previews of 82 games :)

Of course, NCAA will be from the start in the next story.

And yep, I've learned the lesson, once again. No previews until playoffs, no animated gifs and that stuff (well, maybe a few). :)


Added a poll... I'm between 4 teams, Utah, Houston, Dallas and Philadelphia. The poll outcome will be a major fact in my team choosing, but I'll play some games with all the teams and see the results.

The Jazz are my frontrunners and most likely I'll end up with them, I've rarely seen stories using them here. Personally, only Maree's.

Utah, you'll get bored with Philly. Plus I wan to see Sloan finally gets his coach of the year

Re: .:| RFTA • Back In Black |:. Vote new team!

Tue Apr 20, 2010 12:18 pm

one of the funnest things i remember from my Rockets was landing D-Will (forget how/who/why but i remember him being stuck on Utah's bench behind some upstart #1 draft comp pre-generate rookie sensation PG... ahh! SERGEI TANKOSIC if i remember correctly :lol: )

anyway, always liked D-Will but would rather have left him in Utah otherwise; simply for the challenge of playing against him since he's a beast!

Very disappointed at this one ending. Although i hated the Pacers and thus didn't post much, i was still reading and following. However, i dont think any of those 4 teams will last long for you, they are simply too good (yes, 76ers are dominant in the game) and you'll probably get bored before 6 games.

That being said, out of that list, Utah will be the best option as I would hate to see you use Rockets only to trade Yao or the Sixers and trading away Elton Brand away. As for the Mavs, they are as stacked as the Lakers or the Cavs.

and yes, if you are going to start a new one, please scrap the previews and DO NOT RECAP ALL 82. That's just asking for disaster :?
