The EyesonFF NBA Team (an NBA 2k13 Playthrough) - GAME 1

*click me for awesome 90's music to enhance your reading experience*

Bear with me guys, this should be a lot of fun! I've just reinstalled NBA 2k13 on my computer, and I figure that it'd be fun to make an EyesonFF themed NBA team (we can customize a lot of things like jerseys and team name but more on that later), then I'll get all the willing members and make their highly paid, much taller, high flying counterparts in the game. I'll put them all on to the EyesonFF team, set up an association mode and then trade them all for better players and see how many seasons it takes us to work our way to the end of the Playoffs and win it all!

The game has a pretty good instant replay feature (sometimes a bit buggy on the PC version though) so there will be screenshots galore from plenty of EXCITING ANGLES; be amazed as you watch your favourite eyes on members dunking all over the place, and your least favourite members being charged into by much bigger athletes. We also have a myriad of stats and intricacies that I'll keep you all updated on so you can see exactly how well your player is doing, whinge about how much play time you're getting (god knows they do in the game), see if your player is happy with the team or, god forbid, demanding to be traded!

So assuming that you are interested this is the way I want to go about it. Instead of the usual fare of "name, age, appearance, position etc." I've prepared a little questionnaire for you all, answer as seriously or stupidly as you want, it's up to you. From your answers I will try to figure out what position and play style you would be. That said, I am happy for you guys to dictate how your player will look, but be warned that despite a seemingly large amount of options in the character creator, every person's face just comes out looking pretty much the same.

Anyway, after you have filled out the questionnaire below you can post it in this thread, PM it to me if you're embarrassed about your terrible answers, or write it by hand and mail it if you're going for that extra touch of class. We'll need about 8 sign ups for a proper rotation, but I think I can have as many as 11 (or maybe 13), I dunno how popular this will really be though. To the ladies, I am sorry but with no WNBA integration into the game I can't actually make a female character model but you shouldn't let that be a deterrent, either give a serious appearance and I'll get it as close as possible (Like I said, there ARE a lot of features to the character creator and I can make a fairly feminine looking player for you) or go wild and ask to be a very ripped African-American, ala every Let's Play that has involved Ronnie Coleman. After I have enough sign ups I'll come at you with the options for creating our team and leave it up to the whole group to decide on our colours, logo and team name.

Finally, I would just say that even if you don't watch, enjoy or even understand the game of Basketball that you give this a go, because you may be surprised how into it you get when your player hits a game winning shot or drops 30 points and leads us to a win in the playoffs.

Don't worry Shion, by the time we're done with this you'll be an aficionado! Just a couple of notes on your entry, which are good general points that I probably forgot to mention. In the appearance there is no need to put your size and weight. While there is a chance you will end up as one of the smaller players on the court if I put us as our actual heights we would get creamed. Your size will be adjusted to match your position on the court, so while there's no harm in putting it down under appearance it won't be take into consideration, as your position is decided by your answers to the questionnaire :D

Awesome to see so much interest from the get go as well! Looking forward to doing this!
