At the risk of looking stupid, what was wrong with that play?

Unless I'm missing something, receiver dropped ball, defensive hold not called - which seems realistic to me?


95% of passes in MFN over 12-13 air yards are dropped. Long passing is broken completely.

If you use long passing at all in MFN you can't win which I think what Gustoon is referring too.

Yes there are 75 yard TD passes in MFN but 99% of them are on 1 on 1 coverage and the pass connects around 10 yards past the line of scrimmage and the receiver breaks a tackle and takes it to the house.

Yes that happens but when was the last time you saw a 20+ pass connect in the air?


Ah yeah, gotcha, B&R is overpowered.

I have 2 of my leagues about to hit the end of season spin in the next week!!!

18 of the 27 custom/standard leagues have at least 10 open teams while only 4 leagues have 4 or less and absolutely none are full.

The next 30 days will be telling for the future of those leagues and MFN as a whole.

I wonder how many of those leagues have active owners. I know B1G vs SEC I kicked about 4 guys because they were new and became inactive for about 3 weeks after about two days they joined the league. I think that will be just as big of a problem too.

Hey Gustoon - would you consider consolidating your 2 leagues into 1? Might be a short term - and yes undesirable solution during what I think we all hope is a short term period of contraction.

Moving on:
I, too, am holding my breath a bit. I have not cashed in my Legacy credits nor have I stopped using my adblocker.
I want to bring attention to an idea someone else brought up previously - badges.
Be freaking awesome if league admins had a badge for 6mo or 12mo paid, as well as each individual league having a notation / badge in the league search as to how many seasons it has been in existence.

To those thinking about the UI. Now's the time. Collect, organize, pitch without conditions.
What happens will happen. That's how "it" becomes what "it" is. Heh.

To all of us, change is hard, but we *can* do it.

I have not been here long but some players have been here so long and been through so much why not deal with this, too? Those players who have are exactly why I am here.

It's not change that bothers me or most others in MFN!

In fact, it's the lack of change that really bothers me!

I've been playing MFN since 2017...played versions 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 & 4.6.....There use to be a "bleeding beta" version in MFN-1, now defunct where JDB actively tweaked the game and took feedback.

When we switches from 4.5 to 4.6 over 2 years ago....we lost a bunch of owners because the passing game was so tamped down and long passing became dead.

Over a year ago, I PMed JDB and pleaded with him to post something, anything to assure owners changes were on the horizon because I was constantly convincing people to stick it out and give him time.

In January of 2023, JDB posted that he was working on the UI and it was 70-80% complete.

In February of 2024, in this very thread he said the UI was 75% complete and the next change coming.

That's 13 months....0 progress!!!!

The facts is we have approximately 250-300 users and if every single owner chose the MVP package....it still wouldn't be enough money for him to realistically quit his day job and focus solely on MFN.

I had no issues with the slow and steady pace of a 1-man show since it was basically free to all and anyone could spend at will but it from from slow and steady to sporadically slow to 1 year without change!

It's the lack of change that bothers me!

I'ma just give up the rah rah stuff.
Sometimes, one just has to know when the tide can not be turned.
Little old me and my 4 months just cannot be positive enough to go against all the years of everything sucks some of you have come to thrive upon.
I give up the public rah-rah.
Y'all can just continue with your blah-blah.
The long term player blah-blahs hate everything and every change just beat my new perspective and my willingness to adapt.

The old timers have convinced this new timer that MFN sucks.
It always will, it always has. Not one improvement has a silver lining, not one chnge will ever be acceptable, nor will any current environment every be improvable.

You win! MFN is entirely hopeless, no change will ever be a good change, and it's all about you and not the game.

Forgive me for being upbeat, for you have beaten me down.
I went 2/4 double time, the old guard is lodged in 4/4 hold the line.

It's not hard to know when the majority is against you, and clearly this hopeless thread is not a place to discuss being hopeful.


If one can't beat 'em, one joins them.
I welcome myself with full aplomb to the resigned.

Not.
What I'm being told is MFN is hopeless. What I see is selfishness (mostly, with notable exceptions). There's a whole lot of what about me instead of a whole lot of what about this.

I know a good beat down when I get one, and by golly, I have been beaten down!
The only thing killing MFN is the old guard.
Tied and true, I've seen what y'all can do.
It's why I called out TOS when I joined.
Y'all tend to be nasty, self annihilating, lacking in enthusiasm, and resign to suckage.
That's on you.

Just as how every positive has been buried inthe negative. Just as how every idea of progress has been met with a full f that by far too many persons, so goes MFN.

Be great if all you so called dedicated old timers could see how much more you are doing to destroy this game than anything JDB ever could do.

It's not him. It's how so many of you tear apart everything and destroy the vigor of any new comer to MFN with all beyotching y'all do.
If the old guard is negative, then the MFN experience will be as well.
Seems y'all got exactly what you earned.
Shame on me for trying to be supportive when affronted with so much negative.
I mean the old guard. What a bunch of self entitlement with a stunning lack of innovation.

It's a business.
No one deserves anything.
If anyone thinks they do, that is exactly why there is anger, exactly why there is no positive creation, and exactly when there is no actual growth in MFN.
most of y'all flipping hate everything and anything new in MFN, and will not hesitate to go on and on about what you hated before, what you hate now, and why you will hate anything in the future regarding MFN.

Then again, I've only been here a little over 4 months.
Not one development was ever met with anything but resentment.
Read the forums.


Truth Bomb.

Old guard be all "We need new players!"
Also old guard: "F you, noob, you don't know anything and let me tell you how much MFN sucks. In fact let me show you all the links we have about how much MFN sucks. If you still ain't sure about how much MFN sucks, just read the recent posts about how MFN sucked before, changes were made, and then read about how much we hate that, too."

Sigh. Y'all got something so good, something so beta, yet so many of you choose to be all alpha about it.

Yep. Time to depart the madness and just keep putting up my 30ppg.
I know nothing.
I'm too new to know, and thus my thoughts mean nothing.
Sounds like a John Mellencamp quote, don't it?
Because it is.

PS: Edited because p o o p is now under the realm of the forum censor-bot. Minor improvement since this thread was started to the UI.
It's the little things.
