Can anyone explain what's going on on Crum? We are through draft, etcetra, and nothing is happening.

The World Schedule says the old season has concluded and the new season started this morning, and new coaches can sign up.

Yeah the offseason seems to take forever now

it really does. if you don't have much or anything to do in recruiting session 2, it is slllllllllllllllllow.

just to add, in the one-a-day worlds, if you go out the first game in your CT and have nothing to do in the 2nd recruiting session, you have 2 full weeks of dead time before next season's exhibitions.

Primary reason I am very opposed to ideas about lengthening the 2nd recruiting session. It's already too long. 10 cycles is more than enough, I'd prefer they cut it back a day, to 6 signing cycles (5 for late preference recruits) to be honest.

or one could consolidate the recruiting into one session, that could take place after coaches change jobs and aftr EE's - to make the game more manageable for customers.....ooop, that was what seble got rid of....

It's now Monday 11/14, and the world is still in a half-flipped state..... Roster, depth chart, practice, game plan, and standings are for next season, but the world schedule is still on last season. Changing player positions, recruiting, exhibition scheduling, and non-conference scheduling all say "the deadline has passed", indicating it's still on last season. You also can't redshirt players in "Manage Roster," also indicating it's on last season but past the deadline.

It's also strange to look at the World Schedule and see "Season Starts" and "New Coach Signups Start" at the top *and* bottom of the schedule....

My recommendation would be to flip everything (all aspects of the game) to the next season all at the same time, not flip some parts of the game on one day and other parts on other days. It's strange, confusing, and annoying.

What's the 3.0 season length compared to the old 2.0 seasons?
I think it's 1 day shorter in 3.0, but the slowness comes from whether you have nothing to do in Recruiting Session 2.

It looks like that world may have gotten stuck in the rollover. Heads up, WIS!

That is why guys are missing recruiting too! You have way too much idle time now compared to the 2.0 season roll over.

a lot of idle time and it seems to me that it's been getting stuck in all the worlds i'm in at that time every time since we first flipped to HD3....so what's the deal with that??

Is it really getting "stuck", or are we talking about the period after recruiting where new players sign up? The first thing that happens in a season is new player sign up. This lasts a day and a half. In the evening on the second day of the season, you begin scheduling, scouting, red shirting players, etc.

Right, in Crum we're in the new signups period.
I think the entire 3.0 season is 1 or 2 days shorter than in 2.0.
The World Schedule should be shown clearer.
Crum has had a bunch of new signups which is good.

They seem to have gotten in gear. Scouting and exhibition scheduling now available at 6 pm ET tomorrow. Transparency still sucks, but time to move on.

Thread closed. (I fully expect Spudhole to post the last word anyway because it just can't help itself).
