I feel like it's important to get a little bit of clarification out there on this:

Only one rule at the moment:
Please use a balanced roster, i.e. positioning true to position.
Avoid known glitches like only 1-play-defense.
Try to keep the game as realistic as possible.

I'll go ahead and start by just coming straight out with it, I feel cheated out of a conference championship and a trip to the big game.

Just this one play early in the game could have been the difference in such a tight game. A WR overridden into the FB spot comes out (unsurprisingly) with a massive gain on third and nine leading to an eventual TD in a very low scoring game.

Mix's receiving numbers for the season were out of control because of this use. This breaks the "true to position" part of the rule, as well as the realism, not because it is unrealistic for a WR to line up and run a route from the backfield, but because in MFN, the defense sees him as a FB on that play and defends based on that false knowledge.

Can we please establish that, as the new UI will force, any out of position players in the depth chart or overrides is strictly off limits. It will help a smoother transition to the new UI, as well as avoiding situations where somebody ends up feeling cheated.

Loan, no hard feelings, you are among the top in MFN without question. I hope you can see this from my side and understand where I'm coming from.

You are right and I have to apologize. I tried these overrides in pre-season and forgot to change back.



In addition, I switched to the new UI, and now it is no longer possible to use a WR outside of his position, even in the (standard) overrides.
