Power Rankings

BigBadRob83

After some chatting with Berty (thanks for the reminder), finally managed to find a way to get the results of all the games off the EA website.
Based on this have re-used the Power Rankings spreadsheet from Madden 12 to give us a rough idea for Madden 13.

*The one caveat is that there is no record of which games were CPU controlled (which will affect the rankings, as they only take into account Human-v-Human games).
So I have put up the list of fixtures in a Google spreadsheet.
If you can remember, can you please enter which games you know of that a team was CPU controlled? (In Column B or Column G)

Thanks,

Rob

Bengals only won 1 Human game... very sad

Week 13 - Chargers CPU

Week 10 - Both Giants & Bengals CPU (Couldnt agree a day/time)

Week 6 - Browns CPU

Danger_dave1

Seahawks/both bills games and 1 dolphins game were CPU games

BigBadRob83

Will thank your post when I have updated the spreadsheet for it.

Will be off next week, so hopefully will get version 2 updated with everyone's CPU games when I come back

The Bears had one cpu game that i can think of against the colts week one.

Berty44

Chiefs week 2 game against Bills was CPU

Absolutely fantastic job on this Rob, I know there was a awful lot of work and a bit of smarts involved in getting get those results extracted and into that googledoc.

more mid table mediocrity for the Titans!

Nice job Rob!

Hi, How can I amend the spreadsheet?

It says its view only and I cant edit it, anyway I was away for 3 weeks, so I was CPU for weeks 7-9(No way I'm ever losing 52-7).

Week 12 v the Texans was CPU game as nerd69 left the franchise.

Week 14 against the packers, it was human v human, but I'd lost by 7 points I think but the score didn't register so I dropped to let Nelbert play the CPU, I'm assuming you are not counting the scores but if you are I didnt lose 41-7.

PADRAIC.M

Cardinals played all their games as a human!

etloveslsd

Steelers beat the cpu Raiders and Chargers.

I was away for 2 games so cpu Steelers lost to the Ravens and beat The Browns.

Nice job Rob! You do love your stats!

madalig12

Seahawks were CPU for both my games and the giants game was simmed as we couldn't connect. Cannot remember if there were others.

BigBadRob83

Have made the spreadsheet editable now, sorry missed that first time.

Falcons played CPU raiders in week 6

davetherave

Pats

week 5 @ Broncos. Multiple disconnects and desyncs. Pats were winning all games so played the cpu.
Week 6 vs Seahawks
Week 13 vs Dolphins
Week 14 @ Texans.
Week 17 @ Dolphins


I think that is all of them.

Big Daddy Cool

Think i played The Texans CPU twice last season and Dolphins once

Guffy

Buccs against Chargers and raiders both CPU. Think I edited it but hard lo do on phone

madalig12

Dolphins were CPU for most of the season.

PerrinV2

Week 4 Broncos versus Raiders.Raiders were CPU
Week 11 Broncos versus Chargers.chargers were CPU
Thats it

Mikeyt086

Week 3 vs Colts.
Week 7 vs Raiders.
Week 9 vs Lions.
Week 13 vs Bills.

Were CPU wins for the Jags.

So finally getting around to completing this.

From looks of it there some teams that were CPU all last season:
Bills, Dolphins, Seahawks, Raiders, and the Chargers from whenever Paully D left.

Not sure if they were CPU all season or not.
Just wanted to check this before updated it fully

Dolphins definitely played a few games at the start.

Bills played a few preseason, cant be sure if they made the regular season. Shame cause he seemed eager.

Its weird. The Dolphins coach set up the twitter account for the drafting of the teams and posted loads and then all of a sudden left. Same the year before too.

helimachoptor

Yeah that was odd..

Was that HeartoftheCity?
If it was, think he did the same in M12 with the Broncos

davetherave

BrianOn was the Bills for a good bit.

PerrinV2

Paully was here for a good few games too,I remember he bet Berty and absolutely mauled me in our division,he would have been a contender.
Raider were cpu somewhere between where ibmax left and giffney took over

matthew8

My wins against the Seahawks and Chargers both CPU wins.

Yep!

Mikeyt086

Whats even more odd about HOTC's situation is I think he still plays Madden 13 regularly enough.

If he tries to join up for madden 14, should we let him?

I'm not in favour of turning people away, but he has a track record.

SantryRed

Not a chance.

madalig12

Should we try to get a replacement?

Raoul

Well there are a few open spots. Not sure what we can do to get more.

SantryRed

There are currently 4 CPU teams (Texans, Chargers, Dolphins, Bills)

The reason I haven't removed their owners is to stop the CPU making FA bids that break our rules in the off season.

Mikeyt086

Also I think Nerd69 and Paully D have some intention of coming back if they become available. So if someone was to become interested in participating maybe they should choose from Bills and Dolphins first.

PerrinV2

Do we need to update our power rankings? like is this what we'll be using for picking teams in the next madden.Just thought I'd mention it while we still have this seasons results available

SantryRed

I have this seasons results on a spreadsheet.

How did you do that? Are they downloadable somewhere or was it simply time and effort?

SantryRed

Time and effort

Well at least you excel data entry skills are getting good work, stick it on your CV! You will probably be doing that for the first 3/4 months of your career.

Cheers for bringing that up. It was confusing though and I did say to people in my party do I have to go and advance this now or what and everyone was like Yep yep yep. Anyway...back on topic please!!!

SantryRed

Heli,

Step 1: At 9pm, go to advance, and force advance.

Step 2: WAIT

Step 3: NFL Draft will appear, click on it, press start, job done.

Step 4: Do not simulate AFTER the draft, it should go straight to pre season week 1.

adrian522

Do we have to wait for the draft advance to put trades through?

helimachoptor

No, myself and the Raiders trade went though ok

Hey, I do take full responsibility. It was a dark moment! I received death threats via pm.
