    S.O.S. Crew - Madden '15 Recruiting Thread (PS4 League)



    The S.O.S. Crew is getting an early start to recruiting members for the upcoming Madden '15 PS4 cycle. The main reason for this is due to a lengthy team selection process that will be starting soon.

    You can check out our League Forum to get a better idea about the league. Please keep in mind that league rules are going to change with the new game coming out. It doesn't change our league philosophy, however.

    A cliff notes version of our league:
    - No-switch league with strict rules regulating game exploits
    - Those who are sore losers or disrespectful need not apply
    - Trading is restricted and contracts require a certain % bonus and we monitor rosters to make sure guys are actively trying to win
    - We will have at least two sim seasons during the Madden '15 cycle
    - We advance every 72 hours and expect all members to be great at scheduling games
    - Those who attempt to "win at all costs" will be weeded out, we want guys who play with integrity no matter what

    Please respond via Private Message to me with the following questions answered:

    Age:
    Typical availability during a week & time zone:
    GroupMe is mandatory, do you have it?
    How many CFM's do you plan on participating in?
    What experience do you have with CFM's?
    Why would you be a great fit for S.O.S. Crew?


    Once again, please PM your answers to me on OS!

    A few more small things:
    - Spots aren't being given out "first come first serve"
    - We will keep you up to date with your application as much as possible
    - We aren't taking on everyone
    - If you have any questions just PM me

    Re: S.O.S. Crew - Madden '15 Recruiting Thread (PS4 League)

    We are nearly full but still have a few more spots to fill.

    I'm excited we have been able to get a few guys new to the Madden community to join our league. The common response I got from these guys was "I was in a 'SIM' Madden league once but it wasn't really sim. When the last minutes of the game rolled around guys would play tourney style Madden and exploit their way to winning. Nobody got disciplined for doing this and it created a league full of exploits."

    SOS offers relief from the typical league experience. The ones where the same guys always win. The ones where guys rip off others in trades. The ones where guys exploit the system in any way to gain an advantage.

    We are simply different. Positive, mature members. League rules designed to make games fair and eliminate possible exploits. Commissioners who will discipline those who break rules.

    If this sounds like something you want to be part of, PM me the questionnaire. It's not a first come first serve league. We will take the guys who fit our league philosophy best.

        Re: S.O.S. Crew - Madden '15 Recruiting Thread (PS4 League)

        There are currently two spots available in the league. We have several members interested in tryouts at this point and it will be a very, very difficult decision.

        At this point we will accept applications only of OS members who are active in the forums or have a great Madden league track record.

          Re: S.O.S. Crew - Madden '15 Recruiting Thread (PS4 League)

          We have reached our limit for accepting applications.

          The level of interest we've received has been overwhelming and it makes me proud to know that Baughn, Drew, and myself have put together a league with such a great reputation on this awesome website.

          If there comes a time we need to look for new members I will bump this thread and re-open the application process.

          I appreciate all the interest guys and I sincerely apologize for simply not having enough slots for everyone. I take no joy in turning people away which we've unfortunately had to do way too many times so far.

            Re: S.O.S. Crew - Madden '15 Recruiting Thread (PS4 League)

            S.O.S. Crew now looking for a few good men.

            We've had some great members have to step down before the season started and would like to tryout a guy or two to fill the final spot in our league. Our league has a strong track record of 10 seasons on Operation Sports and we have an amazing core of members who play Madden like football, not a video game. Our league philosophy is to have guys who display class in victory or defeat while running their football team like a real NFL franchise.

            We also are starting an awesome Awards system which will reward those who do well on the field as well as those who make the league a better place.

            Team available: Washington Redskins
            Point in season: We are going to start later this week, so you have a clean slate

            If this sounds like the league for you then please check out below.

              S.O.S. Crew now looking for one new owner

              We had a member drop due to his work schedule and need to fill just one spot. Our league has a strong track record of 10 seasons on Operation Sports and we have an amazing core of members who play Madden like football, not a video game. Our league philosophy is to have guys who display class in victory or defeat while running their football team like a real NFL franchise.

              Team available: Oakland Raiders (0-4) | Roster is still in tact but they need some help as they've had a tough schedule through 4 games and are looking for their first victory.
              Point in season: Week 6

              If this sounds like the league for you then please check out below.

                S.O.S. Crew now looking for two new owners

                We had a family emergency + a ninja drop hit our league so we're down two men. Our league has a strong track record of 10 seasons on Operation Sports and we have an amazing core of members who play Madden like football, not a video game. Our league philosophy is to have guys who display class in victory or defeat while running their football team like a real NFL franchise.

                We also are starting an awesome Awards system which will reward those who do well on the field as well as those who make the league a better place.

                Teams available:
                Oakland Raiders (2-7) | Roster is still in tact but they need some help as they've had a tough schedule through 4 games and are looking for their first victory.
                Arizona Cardinals (5-3) | They are in the thick of things but will likely be 5-4 after a game against a user as CPU. They are still very much alive in the playoff race. Their entire team remains in-tact.

                Point in season: Week 10 going into Week 11

                  S.O.S. Crew now looking for ONE new owner

                  We had another member fall victim to an increase in workload in his career so we have an opening. Our league has a strong track record of 10 seasons on Operation Sports and we have an amazing core of members who play Madden like football, not a video game. Our league philosophy is to have guys who display class in victory or defeat while running their football team like a real NFL franchise.

                  Teams available:
                  New England Patriots (6-5) | http://www.daddyleagues.com/sos/team/ne
                  Team has all key players and no major injuries

                  Point in season: Week 13

                    We have an amazing group but we have that revolving door issue of about 2-3 guys who join then go MIA or drop or don't follow rules. We are very proud of what we have built and the current state of everything we just want a few long-term members to join us and stick with us for a long time.

                    Not sure at the moment but I will have a better idea tomorrow. No playoff teams will be available but we will advance to week 16 tonight so you'll have the off season coming up and you can mold your team.

                          We have an amazing group but we have that revolving door issue of about 2-3 guys who join then go MIA or drop or don't follow rules. We are very proud of what we have built and the current state of everything we just want a few long-term members to join us and stick with us for a long time. Our league has a strong track record of 10 seasons on Operation Sports and we have an amazing core of members who play Madden like football, not a video game. Our league philosophy is to have guys who display class in victory or defeat while running their football team like a real NFL franchise.

                          We also are starting an awesome Awards system which will reward those who do well on the field as well as those who make the league a better place.

                          Teams available:
                          Oakland Raiders (6-10): We're starting the playoffs tomorrow so you will have a clean slate to work with!

                          If this sounds like the league for you then please check out below.

                          Please make sure you thoroughly read the league rules before contact me about the league. We are on the more strict side of things when it comes to online CFM's and it's not for everybody.
                          Friendly bump

                          The SOS Crew Bowl XI is going down tonight or tomorrow night and then we'll be in the first off-season. The Raiders will be in solid position to rebuild and have a top 10 draft pick.

                          I know the PS4 online league area is heavily saturated with leagues but we have a solid track record. This is the clean slate most guys like to start with!

                              Yep I'm now a spambot with the amount of times I'm trying to fill Oakland!

                              Draft is tomorrow night at 930 est. They have the #10 pick and if you get in you have a great shot at molding this roster to what you want!

                              Let me know if interested!!

                              I would also encourage to check out our sub forum to see our activity and content by members. Very proud of the group we have put together. We want a long term member who wants to be a staple in this league
