No, I'm just not hip to all the net lingo as I don't really try to keep up w/ that kinda stuff.
I get it now. Altered images as jokes.
How did the name 'meme' come about though? |

Not sure but I heard it came from the french word "même", "same" because you take you take the same image and modify it in several ways |

Nice idea, but meme is actually an English word in itself. See here. |

I have not played much in about a year. Could someone tell me how the box scheduler has changed. Last I knew, it was based on the TV of both teams involved.
From this thread, I am lead to believe it now is based on the number of games a team has played.
How is the scheduling now determined?
(Although I am lucky to get a box game. When I activate there are rarely enough coaches to schedule.) |

It is still based on TV, but with the modifiers which are explained in the first post here. |

Thanks for the info, I did not have the full story. Though in your link it does state that this english word "could alternatively be thought of as being related to 'memory', or to the French word même" by its inventor, so I was only 90% wrong |

I have destroyed more than my fair share of teams. Seemed fair to let you all enjoy some revenge. The replies were exactly what I expected
I don't really care about a TV limit difference. I care more that it didn't pair a higher TV vs the nurgle instead. |

Was there a higher TV team in the draw? If there was, did their coach also have a lower TV/younger team in the draw?
Maybe it's just...
Code: | if (match.hometeam.coach.coachname !== "smallman") {
match.awayteam = getFairestOpponent();
} else {
match.awayteam = screwThatGuyGood();
} |
