Here are the games...some great ones in there...very dramatic.
PBR@OC game on the way soon. Need to adjust the rom and put out a new one for the PBR@OC game due to the changes by Ryno. I'll wait for a bit to run it so TBG has a chance to make some changes, but if he's on vacation or something (has not logged on for a few days) and doesn't pop up soon, then the show goes on.
The ROM from this thread isn't compatible with these WMVs
Why did Nando start again? I thought the starters switched up?
wrong ROM. I demand a check on the ROM2 defense
Wait, so I'm using the wrong ROM, or Darky did?
WOW!!!
Controversy already...

Did you use the rom that I attached in the OP?

It worked fine over here. I just downloaded the rom again from the OP, and replayed the game. Strange defense on that fly ball by the wall.
OK, got it now. The ROMs had the same name, so I was using the wrong one.
Watch the game and PM me the highlights. Or videotape it and send me a movie file. I wish I could watch these games... :(
After watching that game, I feel like there were some sort of shenanigans occuring. Why did all our fielders run straight in towards the plate on every ground ball/line drive instead of going to the ball like they did last game? I sense some manipulation.
WOW!!
Yep, I said it.

All the games are clean. I ran them one after the other...and taped it. I have the files and dates with times as well to show that each game was run in succession. I taped the end of the Sally Cunt-Artichoke game and then immediately going to my game to show that it was totally live and random.
I'll have to redo the PBR-OC game due to Ryno's change and await any changes by TBG...
Mike, that's how the fielders field the ball on RBI...I'm doing the boxscore right now, so I'll look into this. Also, you and Nacho need to address the defense of the Sally Cunts...almost as bad as the Fighting Culter's defense.
and the Galactic Empire is scrappy....heroic ending!

The Error rate is 5 for all. I had 2 BOPs and a strange misplay in the OF, plus twice I got fucked on the 3rd basemen throwing home on a FC to get the guy at the plate, then the catcher throwing to 1st before the tag was made, and of course too late to get the out at first.
...holy **** low scoring game for the UL/Empire
Where's Al's coming out party?

You really did have some weird luck in that game. Week 2 was an odd one. That mishap in LF blew my mind. And the Sally Cunts missed a fly ball which was out of the ordinary.
I lucked out against BeefMaster in my game. I did not have to throw to any of his pinch hitters. Luck of the draw I guess. None of his pinch hitters made an appearance, and Heep is an awesome pinch hitter. I've ran a lot of games to get a sense, and I really had the force on my side for that game. Schmidt and Dawson did not do that much damage and the practice games that I ran against Beef's team usually were 50-50. Beef has a lot of power in his lineup. I've seen a lot of practice games btw.
But that's what happens when I run an official game...anything can happen.
Ryno, sorry man, gotta go back to bed.
I had some of that shitty luck last week. . . .crazy BOPS and shit. . .. it got Pedrique some playing time, so it wasn't all that bad.
I got lucky on bops.
I'm also incredibly awesome.

GREAT.GAME.WOW
Dykstra walk-off caps 9th inning comeback
IMPERIAL CENTER (AP) - With a 9-4 lead heading into the bottom of the ninth inning, the Unhloly Legions of Doom (1-1) appeared to be on the verge of going 2-0.
Set up man Robnsn started the 9th by giving up 2 straight doubles and two runs. Closer Franco came in to slam the door in relief. Franco then gave up consecutive RBI hits to Donnie Baseball, Murphy and Heath before getting Knight to line out.
Down 9-7 with one out, Lenny Dykstra swung at the first pitch by Franco and delivered a heroic shot into the right field bleachers to give the Galactic Empire (2-0) a 10-9 win in dramatic fashion. The crowd of 93,000 at the Imperial Center Stadium chanted "LENNY-LENNY-LENNY" as Dykstra gleefully trotted the bases.
Dykstra finished the day 3-5 with 3 rbi's and a single shy of hitting for the cycle.
J.Morris (2 ER) and Danny Cox (3 ER) were brilliant for the second straight week. They were caught up in a pitchers duel with Reushl (1 ER) and Sutton (1 ER) who both were impressively sharp with their command. Orosco gave up no runs in his relief appearance and kept the game reasonably close while the Empire's impeccable defense appeared to play at a very high and crisp speed.
"The difference was the bullpen today and how we harnessed the Force to stage a last inning comeback which we knew we could " said Darkside. "Our ballplayers are mentally tough and we've been through a lot, this is just one win and the moment is over. Now we need to prepare for the Pabst Blue Ribbons" philosophized Darkside to a group of swarming reporters.
"This says a lot about this team and about the guys," team captain D.Mattingly said. "We did a lot of things right, we did a lot of things wrong, but we kept fighting."
Mike Schmidt homered once again for the Unholy Legions and now leads the league with 5 homeruns in two games.
Seriously... that was your only homerun?
I might need to switch around Franco and Robinson or something.
Quote from: BeefMaster on 04/14/09, 02:10:53 PM

Yep...we have two homeruns now in 2 games, but easily leading the league in doubles. We'll hit more homeruns eventually. But I am pleased with how we hit so far. I like high contact hitters with power above 780 or so. Our lineup is loaded with them.
So far, Cox and Morris are doing what they should be doing...Though Shiraldi gave up 3 runs, I'm still pleased with the effort.
To be honest, I was scared to death of Schmidt, Dawson, and GDavis. GDavis killed you. He hit into a double play with runners on the corners in the 6th or something and had some bad at bats. Schmidt and Dawson did not have their best games, and I lucked out with none of your pinch hitters getting an AB. I was surprised at how Reushl pitched that good.
Anyways, there were some great games this week. I'll finish up the postgames tomorrow. I have to redo 2 boxscores...arghh
I was really surprised that the Artichokes did a number on the Sally Cunts like that. Gooden got a lead though, and if he gets a lead, things can be tight.
Speir had 4 hr's in the Fighting Cutlers-Badasses game. I think the BadAsses have almost 20 homeruns in two games. I'll try and get the stats out soon.
Awesome season so far...
Top 3=
Galactic Empire
Unholy Legions of Doom
Awesome Badasses
The Badasses are pretty awesome, what can I say?
I have no idea where this power has come from, we've gotten really lucky.
I think the big deal for us so far has been pitching though. Tudor put up an MVP performance in game 1, and was doing decently in this until he was left in longer than he needed to. And Charlie K is top notch.
run it. i'm on vacation.
Chocolate Rain stun Rebel Alliance in come from behind victory
DEE NEE (AP) – With a 9 run lead after two innings, the Rebel Alliance took their foot off the pedal and allowed the Chocolate Rain to stick around. Up 9-0 after two innings, the Rebel Alliance did not score again and only had 6 hits after the second inning as they took a 9-5 lead going into the bottom of the 9th. King came in to finish the game and things looked good after getting the leadoff batter (Henke) out. The Chocolate Rain' top of the line up then quickly caught fire as Tramml lead the assault off with a double. King got Jack Clark to pop out, and with two outs with a runner on second, George Brett hit a game tying double followed by a Pena single which set the stage for the pinch hit hero, Pettis. With runners on the corners and two outs, Pettis sliced a hanging King curve ball down the right field line to end the game in front of 72, 000 roaring fans. King was hammered for 7 hits and 5 runs in the crucial ninth.
Blylvn, Stanly, and Henke gave up a combined 1 hit and no runs in the last 5 innings. Lemon led the Chocolate Rain hitting attack by going 5-5 with two homeruns and Brookn hit two doubles as he went 4-5.
The Chocolate Rain improves to 2-0, and the Rebel Alliance is 0-2.
Awesome Badasses roll to 25-18 victory
DEE NEE (AP) - The Awesome Badasses displayed their explosive power by hitting 10 homeruns off the Fighting Cutler pitchers. Rupert Jones hit three towering shots and Kirby Puckett hit two homeruns. Puckett and Jones combined to go for 9-14 with 5 homeruns, 10 rbi's, and 10 runs. Not bad for your 1-2 punch at the top of the line-up.
Frank Viola picked up the win and the Badasses relief pitching did enough to never surrender a lead in the game.
"The Badasses are pretty awesome, what can I say? I have no idea where this power has come from, we've gotten really lucky" said AlecTrevlan.
The Awesome Badasses move to 2-0 while the Fighting Cutlers are now 0-2.
Fernandomania simmers down
BOSTON (AP) - After El Toro's spectacularly dominating pitching debut for the Sally Cunts (1-1) in week 1, Fernandomania swept through Bill Belichick Park as thousands of Hispanic supporters from the Boston area packed the stadium.
With a 7-6 lead going into the top half of the 7th inning, Fernandomania quickly simmered down as El Toro was tagged for 7 runs and the loss.
The Fighting Artichokes (1-1) erupted for 16 runs in the 7th and 8th inning to put the game away 18-8 in 8 innings (mercy rule).
Doc Gooden picked up the win in relief and DaEvns had 5 rbi's and hit a moonshot that traveled an estimated 650 feet.
TBT was unavailable for comments, but owner Mike D of the Sally Cunts offered his thoughts, " After watching that game, I feel like there were some sort of shenanigans occuring. Why did all our fielders run straight in towards the plate on every ground ball/line drive instead of going to the ball like they did last game? I sense some manipulation."
Still claiming shenanigans or some sort of faulty SIM. The fielding was beyond atrocious, 3/4's of the Artichokes runs were scored by way of fielding mishaps.
WOW!!!
It's crazy, I know. But the Artichokes fielders moved laterally on grounders and line drives, whereas the Cunts just ran straight towards the plate each time. Very weird, but I guess thats the way the cookie crumbles.

I can't control anything (except for 1p subs) when the game is in watch mode Mike D. If I wanted anyone to win, it would be the Sally Cunts...the Artichokes are in my division...also the league would have gained much more attention had you fucks won. There was one fly ball where the second baseman could not get to. It was one of those tweeners that would have been routine had Strawberry hustled his lazy ass, but he let the second baseman go after the ball, and the ball floated away from him. One of those mishaps that happen from time to time in watch mode.
3/4's of the Artichokes runs were scored by clean hits....no need to exaggerate on the mishap thing.
Mike, I think you are not too familiar with how the watch game mode is played. There was nothing funny about the game. That is how the computer plays defense.
Here is that mishap btw...I think you need to have a sit down with the Straw...lots of talent, but the dude is a cancer...He'll never play for the Empire...
Al Pedrique's first ever Fantasy RBI start inspires Pabst Blue Ribbons to victory
SAN LUIS OBISPO (AP) – Under the beautiful California coastal soft blue skies at Central Coast Park, manager Ryno held a team speech in right field 10 minutes before the game. It was not a pretty speech, but the message was sent as the Pabst Blue Ribbons surged past the OC.
The PBR's lineup was changed twice before game time. The beneficiary of the impromptu change, Al Pedrique, made his first ever Fantasy RBI start and he responded like his life was on the line.
Al Pedrique went 5-8 in his debut and sparked a 9th inning rally to tie the game at 20-20 with 2 outs. In the top of the tenth, Gedman doubled to score DwEvans to make it 21-20, then late inning substitution J.Uribe tripled in Gedman to give the PBR's a 22-20 lead. That was all Dave Righetti needed as he retired the side in the bottom of the 10th inning to earn a victory.
The extra inning game was the first of the year for Fantasy season V. The thrilling game saw the lead change 7 times. The OC drop to 0-2 while the Pabst Blue Ribbons pick up their first victory and improve to 1-1.
Fuck yes Pedrique!!!!!!
What?
I ran the game you posted and it was a fkn blow out -- 23-6. Pedrique sparked the team after smashing one off the wall --- I shit you not. . . . . I thought it was gone.
Here's the screen shot.
In my game, Ped was 2-5, 2b, 1 RBI. . . . .regardless.. . . he's a firecracker.
Keep the same lineup for next week.
Did you use the correct rom Ryno? If you used the one in the OP, then that's the wrong one.
Fuck. I know what happened now. I posted the wrong game. I ran all the games together in succession on Monday, and right after I posted this thread, you made a lineup change Ryno. So I had to redo the game. Apparently I posted the wrong zip file/game.
I could not say anything due to the integrity of the league. You did blow out the OC (the game you saw) when I ran all of the week 2 games in immediate succession on Monday, but you requested a lineup change. So I had to scrap that game and do the new one yesterday...and forgot to erase the wrong one.
Here is the official game.
Rich Gedman, Destroyer of Dreams
i used the rom and game from your most recent post. .. . . so the 23-6 stays?
As does Al smashing one off the wall?
Again, same lineup.
i think darky said that the real game was the 20-22 extra inning debauchle.
i hope.

No. You changed the lineup before the game was released. So I redid your lineup and the rom then the game. The 22-20 game is the game that stands. Once you changed the lineup, the game that was played with your old lineup did not mean anything. I did not post the zip. I was maybe an hour or so away from posting that 23-6 game, then I saw you changed the lineup. So officially, that 23-6 game never took place.
Now which lineup do you want for the next game? The one with Ripken hitting 2 hole? or Gagne hitting 2 hole?
Quote from: Nacho on 04/15/09, 08:39:21 PM

Hey dude, shit happens and I made a mistake. Sorry. This league is a lot of work and I have the vmv and zip files and jpeg files all in my week two folder. I forgot to delete the unofficial game from the folder and I clicked on the wrong game. It was a mistake. I clicked the BR@OC game instead of the PBR @OC game. I just did not pay enough attention.
Won't happen again. I said nothing of the 23-6 game. I just redid the game to make it live and official with no funny stuff.
This league is going great I think and at a good rate so far. 2 slate of games a week is a huge bonus compared to last season when it was 1 slate of games every month.

He finds ways to get on base. He's a good heads up player. I'd say that your lineup is just as effective with Spillman in there cause he can go deep and get hits...depends on the trade off. Spillman will hit into double plays or make outs with his lack of speed, and Pedriq will have outs of weak pop ups, but won't hit into double plays or get burnt by no speed. I'd say it's a trade off at even.
I've run a lot of simulation games, and your team does usually score high at times and wins at least 50 percent of the time.
However, once that record button is hit, anything can happen and the teams, players, and league take on an entity of it's own....everyone's thoughts is shaping the league. I'm doing some kind of mind experiment here lol....Testing to see how our thought vibrations can make rbi players perform.
Not that it matters, but the lineup for my game was correct. . . Ripken hitting 2nd.
I'm telling you, I used the ROM and movie file that you posted here:
http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=22606.msg550419#msg550419
I never even downloaded the other ROM.
We may need to adopt some kind of lineup submission rules. I'm lucky that I won both games and Pedrique kicked ass in both games. I'd hate to see something get screwed up because we weren't on the same page as far as lineups.

Okay, it makes a little more sense. I thought I was missing something. . . .I thought I DL'd the only game file that was available.
Still, the lineup was the correct one. Not sure why you had to do the game again.

If you put an old game into a new rom, the result stays the same even if you move the players around.
That's why you saw the same result even with the lineup change. The first lineup change you gave me had Gagne in the 2 hole. So I ran that game but did not post it yet.
The second lineup change had Ripken in the 2 hole, so I had to change the rom from the OP but i attached the old game...which produced the same result even with a new lineup.
Get it?
No, I don't get it.
What I get is that you tried to cheat me out of a win, but the combined power of Al Pedrique and PBR Jesus was something you hadn't anticipated.

lol..nice work there.
Anyways, sorry if I did not explain this whole thing properly. That's my bad.
Here is the best I can explain it:
1. Ryno pm's me his new lineup before week 2:
Quote from: ryno on 04/12/09, 03:46:38 PM
a totally unprecedented change will occur. . . .. . .
1) PEDRIQUE
2) Gagne
3) Gibson
4) Canseco
5) DwEvans
6) Gedman
7) Ripken
8) Teufel
Bush
Spilman
Mazzilli
Uribe
2. I ran all the games for week 2, including Ryno's first lineup change before I posted the week 2 thread.
Ryno announces another lineup change. No problem. The only game I had to redo was Ryno's since I never posted any games/zips file after I started the thread. Nobody else requested a lineup change, so I went ahead and posted the games/zips except for Ryno's and TBG's (I was waiting to see if TBG wanted to make a change since he had not been around), the other games stood. And I do have my game on tape which was immediately ran after the sally cunts game...I run all the games in immediate succession of one another, and I run my game last. I do this so you guys can see in the source file the times of the games...it shows that there was maybe a 3-5 minute break before the start of a new game...just to insure that the games are run randomly live. Anyways, here is Ryno's second lineup request.

Dear God, PBR ME ASAP!!!!
So after this lineup change, I re-did the rom for the PBR-OC game. I had to discount the original game I ran because it had the incorrect line-up.
Unfortunately, when I attached the new ROM, I attached the wrong game/zip file. I attached the game with Ryno's first lineup change which was given to me in a pm. The second lineup change, (http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=22606.20, was then accounted for and official since I did not post the game before it happened.
My blunder was here http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=22606.20...and then I fixed it here http://forums.dee-nee.com/index.php?topic=22606.40.
Ryno, the reason I said nothing is because I was being fair to you, TBG, and the league.
I was as fair as possible and everything was run cleanly. I just made a stupid mistake by attaching the wrong zip file to the rom. The rom was fine, it was just the game that was done originally before the lineup change occurred. So technically, I had to discount that game since I never posted it (though it was already done). The game was then ran after the lineup change and that one is official. PBR 22 @ OC 20.
This won't happen again. I'll be sure to post the thread and week number, then run the ROM and games so I don't have to go back and do another game if somebody wants to change their lineup.
Week 3 to start on Friday. I'll put up the thread later. I'll be sure to do the games after I post the thread and ROM :)
Sorry once again. This is unacceptable and I am embarrassed of my stupidity. I need to pay more attention and think things out. Won't happen again.
I don't remember the exact play by play but really only 1 unearned run for my team?

Yep..it was the run after your RF dropped the ball. The fly ball to left field that Hendrick lost in the sun was scored as a hit.
