What % of you guys watch, skip and play??

ForeverRoyalKC · 10-14-2015, 04:31 PM

When my 2015 cpu. vs. cpu. season ends, I am going to GM a weak team and try to build them into winners. I will be the GM but watch each game like every GM does. But I was curious about of the percentage of you all going about your teams. How many of you skip it to play in a few seconds? How many are like me and watch the entire game? How many manage? How many of you skip half a season and play the other half? Etc.

I don't manage or gm, I just watch one random game per day. I used to watch the entire season, but recently I started fast simming April, May and June and watching July, August and September. I also watch the entire post season. I'm loving it.

I manage all the games. I am 3 seasons in so far, been having a blast. I do sim games that I fall behind early, seeing my team being crushed 8-1 in the 3rd makes me not really want to play out the rest of that game

I watch the playoffs. I don't have time to watch every game unfortunately.

I go back and forth in fictional sims. Several seasons simmed with me playing god to develop a fun little history and storyline, developing players with names I like, rarely renaming characters to be sons/brothers of others they look like, helping a struggling franchise quickly turn it around so it doesn't get boringly dominated by a couple teams, and relocating or folding teams that have underperformed so horribly that not even my interventions and stat rigging of prospects helped them. Then I jump in with a low-mid level team for a few years, develop them into champions and usually get bored again and start rigging it so a lot of the best players on those teams stick around to become HOFers and they usually win a few more without me managing. Then I repeat the process. It's a very enjoyable way to play, IMO. I have a league I started a dynasty of but haven't posted in forever because of school. When I have time I'll update and might let people create their own players for the league. (Shameful advertising)

I sim every game to the bottom of the 6th. if it's close I'll take over and manage from there. If it's out of hand one way or the other I'll sim the rest.

You work midnights too?

Right now my fictional league that I "commish" only has 5 teams and 44 games per team, so I watch everything, but as I expand that out I'll need to come up with a better system.

I play every game.
