Optimal use of opponents' contact info

FOR COMPLETING YOUR 16 GAMES ...

Taking the time out to list the contact information for each opponent on your schedule makes it much easier to complete your 16 games.


For example, a list of your opponents' contact information can have the following header:

WEEK, AIM NAME, GAMERTAG, TEAM


On AIM, creating a separate buddy list titled "EAFL-E 360 OPPONENTS" can be made, and the AIM names for your opponents can be added to this list. As you complete all scheduled games with each owner, you can just move that AIM name out of the "EAFL-E 360 OPPONENTS" buddy list.


On XBOX Live, be sure to send or accept freind requests for the opponents on your schedule. Please use ALL of the resources that Xbox Live provides when trying to contact your opponents. Send text and voice messages; and also invite your opponents to voice chats to schedule games, verify settings, and coordinate continuations of any disconnected games. On your computer, if you go to http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/F...spx?WT.svl=nav (after registering) you can see your Xbox Live friends list and you can even communicate with them via text message by clicking on their gamertag; this way, you don't always have to burn up your 360 waiting for an opponent on your schedule to appear online.


Be sure to monitor your e-mail and the league forum for new owner announcements and make sure to review your opponents' contact information
list to verify whether or not a new owner took over a team on your schedule that you have yet to play.


These are simple suggestions, but it is surprising how many owners don't take the aforementioned steps to help ensure completion of their schedule.
