Welcome to the VAFL, the Virtual American Football League.
It's late in the 4th quarter, the two-minute whistle's gone and you're 27-26 down. Your offense is exhausted battling against the leagues top 'D'. Sure, you've only a yard to go but it's fourth down. Do you go for the field goal and hope your defense can slow their awesome offense? Could an onside kick go your way? Should you go for the touchdown to seal the match, knowing if you fail, the match is sealed for you? Where do you go for help?
Nowhere else. You are it. You are the Head Coach, the manager, the owner. This is your team and these are your players. The decisions are yours, in success and failure. Welcome indeed to a fascinating game of virtual football!
