Donations & Teams Update

• At 1:00pm EST tomorrow. I will post my PayPal address on the forum for about 2 hours for those that have not donated and wanting to join. After those few hours, I will delete my post and you will have to contact me via PM for my PayPal address.

• If you're a new or veteran owner that has not donated yet when the Team Draft begins on Friday @ 1pm EST. You can post for a team. However, it may not be official since I still have to confirm receipt of the PayPal donation from you. Just make sure you identify yourself in the PayPal message to avoid confusion. Those that donated earlier will have an advantage of picking up their desired team over any new owner that donates on Friday or later. For example, an owner that just donated at 1:01pm, and posts for the Packers. Then shortly a minute later (1:02pm), an owner who has donated earlier this month posts for the same team. That owner who donated earlier will get the Packers. There's so many different scenarios during Team Draft day every year, so I will be the judge who claims that team officially.

Owners that officially donated for their 2013 team:
1. Berhanu - Cowboys $10 on 8/7/12
2. dmvallstar - Panthers $10 on 8/7/12
3. aheadofmytime - 49ers $10 on 8/7/12
4. Lord_Stewie - Patriots $10 on 8/15/12
5. pillBOXhat - Texans $10 on 8/19/12
6. RL10529 - Ravens $10 on 8/23/12


Owners from the 2nd Group that officially donated and pending for a 2013 team:
1. FlyAsomughaFly $10 on 8/9/12
2. Omegaice $10 on 8/10/12
3. BattleScarredShogun $10 on 8/11/12
4. sdcg81 $10 on 8/12/12
5. slick1ru2 $10 on 8/19/12
6. l.turner3 $10 on 8/20/12

League Balance: $160

Those that are wondering about switching teams, here's some of the answers based on experience running the Madden Leagues.

• Once Week 1 has been been played and you want to switch to a different team. You must donate an additional cost for that team. For example... You donated $8 for the Broncos in August. You already played Week 1 with the Broncos and you noticed that the Packers ($10) are available to the public and want to switch to them starting Week 2. That owner (YOU) must donate an additional $10 to the League to switch teams. No exceptions! If you end up quitting because of your busy schedule or just because you're losing. You will not receive a refund from me. Simply because it's considered wasting my time. The only exception is you can quit the League and receive a full refund before Week 1 is played. Anything after, there's no refunds.
  
• Regarding Owners from Group A. If you decline to not keep your team from Season 2 of Madden 12. You cannot select a random team just because the team you have is expected to drop once Madden 13 finalizes team overall ratings. If an Owner declines their current team, then they will be moved to Group B where it's first-come, first-served starting August 24.
  
• When Owners from Group A & Group B have donated for their teams. You can negotiate with other owners as far as switching teams. Work it out between the both of you, but everything must be finalize before Week 1 kicks off which is still TBA.
  
• Don't forget that this thread on Blu-ray.com is headquarters. We all communicate via thread posts, and Private Messaging and on occasion through PSN. I know some of you have Phone #'s and communicate with text messaging but lets get in the habit of using Private Messaging. I'm cool with text messages but that should be used as a last resort when PM's, or PSN messages are not being replied. Also please do not disclose your Phone #'s on this forum. I'm not responsible if your Phone # falls in to the wrong hands so that's why I strongly suggest that you contact your opponents via PM's, thread posts, or PSN messages. When I do collect Phone #'s, I never disclose them to anyone unless that Owner allows me to.

Bumping This

[JC_20010]

Man there are a lot of good open teams.. maybe I will take the Jets again, or will I.....

are we having multiple seasons with the same teams with progression and what not or with each new season are we taking the updated rosters like macruz has been doing?

The difference could impact what team I choose.

STAY AWAY from the Jets! It's proven that you didn't play well with them last year.

The way both Sanchez and Tebow are playing in preseason. I'm sure their ratings may slightly go down in the first update/ratings.

Since potential is supposed to be a thing of the past, we may not have to rely on roster updates any more. We will vote on this towards the end of the season though, so i suggest picking a team you think you can win it all with this season.
