Around 30 people competed for the $200 cash prize in our first ever Madden 09 tournament.
Saturday was a big day, player after player came in to sign up in hopes of being the 1st ever Gaming Generations Madden 09 champion. With $200 on the line, things heated up pretty quickly. Many games were close, this created some smack talking, but the overall sportsmanship of the players was good. A big thanks goes out to Jake for helping run the tournament and keeping things in line.
FIRST PLACE: $200 Prize
SECOND PLACE: Jake $100 Prize
THIRD PLACE: Fred $50 Prize
The 1st place winners name will be updated soon, for some reason I forgot the tournament sheet at store tonight.

I wasn't there but it truly is no fun to run clock. However, its a tourny and you play to win, if that helps them win, then it is what it is. Second, if you let someone hold the ball for 9 out 12 minutes then you need to call lost and found and ask where your defense is.

Is there a way we can get away from allowing people to run the clock? Like have the clock stop after every play?
Then again, that wouldn't be 100% fair either now that I think about it.
profane, well how does Madden Challenge do it?

At the Madden Challege it is 2 minute quarters not rules except for a few non plays that abuse the ai flaws, like wr double pass. You can run clock all you want and choose what ever plays you want.
EA is suppose to come out with a patch over xbox live to make the clock more realistic for short games, put it has not yet been put out.
The only way to make so you get more positions would be to have longer games, which would take forever.
Point is though, if you have the ball for less than 25 percent of the game then its your D or maybe your offense is lacking.

I disagree...too many people focus on offense and not on their defense. I play on a madden site where that profane would get shut down. The average person just sits arould practicing offense, the wont spend time figuring out ways to stop people.
