Hello,

I am creating this post as a reference to an exploit in NFL Challenge mode that would allow for every player's stats to be maxed out completely, which drastically increases possibilities for NFL Gauntlet submissions.

To do this, you must:

1. Start a medal challenge (i.e. Coming Through found in Sportsplex).
2. Earn a silver or bronze medal to gain development points.
3. Retry the challenge instead of exiting.
4. Rinse and repeat (the earned dev points will stack with every completion/retry until user exits or earns gold).

This pertains to creating a team for use in NFL Gauntlet. While the lone submission (as of 02/2020) appears to use this method, the validity of using custom teams in this category is questionable because of it.

For now, all custom team submissions will be counted as NG+.

Other potential solutions:

1. User must show created team, and -a. categorize whether or not medal glitch was used to create it. -b. --or-- disallow medal glitch altogether.
2. Allow use of the exploit.
3. Disallow created teams in NFL Gauntlet altogether.

If you have a suggestion for this, feel free to share at anytime. Don't be afraid of bumping this post if it's old. I am open to anything that increases the credibility of this category.

I am adding a leaderboard subcategory, NG+, where the player would be able to use their Own The City character as a player of the team. One example, WR holder Zapp3d appears to have used their OTC character.

NG, would prohibit OTC imports, as the time spent creating the OTC character and playing Own The City is not accounted for in the timed run. NG+ would fit this rule better.
