I'm sorry but no way should someone even have the capacity to run the same highly effective blitz for an entire game. I just won a game 3-2 due to my opponent going for it on 4th downs, my defense and extreme luck thanks to the #1 blitz (don't wanna reveal it) being called for essentially every single defensive play by my opponent.

This should not be allowed. There should be some blocks in place for this kind of extreme, unfair game play.

I have a pretty good guess who your opponent was. There is only one owner I have seen call only 1 play all game (although many have called only a few).

dont worry admin is going to start punishing people for over use of 1 play.

As we enter the new season, I will once again start tweaking the game engine in MFN-1. You've already started to see some of the player request updates; the draft is also running some updates, so we'll keep an eye on that - and let me know if you have any strangeness during the draft of players not being selected as you expect.

I'll post to this thread as I push other logic updates to the engine. The first is an increase in the impact of overusing a play - I had it kind of minimally impacting in 0.4, but people's experience seems to imply that it's not having the impact that I was hoping for. I'm also adding to the play-by-play if overuse of a play caused a negative result for your team.


basically that bold worded sentence means that now the game will start punishing people to using 1 play .

What hat actually says is that is will report in the PBP if there was a penalty or not.

SO apparently there already IS one, and NOW it will be shown in the PBP on which plays that takes effect.

But this is good, so we can start to determine if there is ENOUGH penalty... and how many uses of a 'Play' are 'to many'.

The penalty for running the same play is about to be raised and tested in MFN-1. There is a pretty good debate going on how it should work in the MFN-1 forums.
