Go to "Gameplanning" then click on "Deff Plays" then enable more plays.

There are none showing which are not selected; including looking for them by different player sets.

I set minimum times used to 1 and it looks like there are 20+ now. Are you seeing that as well?

GG Kababmaster. Down to the last play a very evenly matched game. Good luck, go get 'em.

GG Bombers, our special teams for kick/punt coverage were the opposite of our defense, but the Barbers came out of it with a very unexpected PO win. Wierd offense with the outside run, pitch plays, dont know what caused that in the gameplan. So that upset sends the Barbers as a 7 point dog against the Falcons, may the sim be with us, lol.

27 O plays. 7 Counters/4.3, 5 HB Pitch Weak (GL) - 1.4 ... think I will def change the cause that for next game. 4 HB Toss Strong - 1.5. Think it's a case of the Ai tendency to call GL offense plays with personnel set even, which is what it was.

22 D plays, no play used more than 5 times.

GG amal/Falcons, the Barber defense was perfect in the first half, then gave up the big pass plays in the 2nd. Offense was shut down and the pick in your redzone at the end of the first half was horrid. Did not expect to win, figured about a 10% chance, but the Barbers did good for their first season. GL rest of the POs.

Re the scouting vs own play results in the posts above, I have noticed the difference also. Dont know why that is, must be a glitch of some sort in the program. Best you can do with it is send a PM to JDB about it, making sure he knows there is an issue.

O - 29 .... D - 19 close to diversity goal of 30/20. Next season, will be interesting to see how it goes with compliance to settings and rules, if we all can do it, we should have a much more open, competitive season. Thanks to all of you who are striving for the diversity goal, it makes a big difference, and is more of a challenge than the MFN "norm". It only works if we all do the settings for offense personnel, defense secondary & LBs (all set equal), and have the anti-auto rules to prevent the overuse of GL defense and Nickel/3wr matchups. The ultimate defensive play mix and use will include the horrible zone coverages, with a minimum of 1 each per game. The inclusion of defenses you would not normally use is what opens it up for more offense, including an occasional long pass play without getting sacked or picked every time, in general. The other advantage of using equal settings and non-auto rules is that once you have them in place, you dont need to deal with them when gameplanning, all you need to do is scout the other team, check your depth chart for injuries or changes, and thats about it other than changing your offense play type settings (inside & out runs, short/med/long pass). One way to look at it is that we are trying to get somewhere between the "norm" of 10 or less defenses and 20 or less offense plays used vs the Roster Only leagues, where you dont do anything other than scout and roster management. Both ends of that are extreme, and boring imho. Congrats and good luck to the final four this season with the CC games coming up next. well done.
