Make sure you are saving all 5 video highlights

[dave]

* Key Weekly Match-ups: Take some images and video's from previous games and build a preview for next week's games. You can create some really compelling Player vs. Player stories by stringing together some great photos they had in previous games.

* Heisman Watch: Is your player top on the list (or in the running) let everyone know! Even better if you can put a bunch of his highlights up in one story.

* Pre-Season and Bowl Predictions: Take a look at the schedule and records of the top teams; let everyone in your Dynasty know what you think by writing a prediction story.

* Best Highlights of the Year: You can take highlights from ANYONES game in your dynasty... so take a peak see if you like a few and make them into your own highlight reel.

* Series History: You can go through old seasons and pull highlights and photos out for a new story. Tell everyone how you've been dominating in your conference.

* Recruiting: Just signed a top recruit? Let everyone know, a simple story with a cool photo goes a long way.

These are great ideas. But what's "Platform Title"? You have to fill it out for the Dynasty Wire if you want to add a story.

[dave]

Where is the platform title you are talking about? Is that the Dynasty Description?

[socbe7]

I'm not sure. If you try to write a story on the web, it has a spot for platform title. Is that PS3 or XBOX? Does that even make sense?

[dave]

I'm guessing it would be PS3. Did you try to see what was?

[dave]

I entered PS3 the first time and me the second time. It worked both times, but I didn't see the word PS3 or me anywhere so I'm not sure what the platform title is for, but I do know you have to have something in that blank.

Dynasty Wire/StoryBuilder

Q: How come my story isn't showing up?
A: Your story will show up immediately for you, but It takes around 5 minutes for the rest of dynasty members to see it. Just wait and the story will appear.

Q: How many highlights can I save per game?
A: There are up to 5 photos automatically taken for you, and you can save up to a total of 10 photos. Additionally you can save up to 5 videos per game. NOTE: You need to save the highlights before exiting the game, once you return to the front end the highlights will be uploaded automatically.

Q: Where can I write my story?
A: login to dynasty.easports.com and find your game recap, select Edit story to begin editing the different text fields.

Q: How come my story keeps getting filtered?
A: Your story contains text that does not pass the EA or Sony/Microsoft profanity filter, you can edit your story to change the text so that you are not being filtered.

Q: I edited my story, but after I selected update my story disappeared from the list. Where is it?
A: while the update is taking place the story is "hidden" so that dynasty members don't access it while the update is taking place.

Q: How do I edit the caption for a highlight?
A: When editing a story, click on the current caption for the highlight in the Selected Media portion of the story editor and change the text to whatever you want.

Q: If I remove a story can I get it back?
A: No, removing a story deletes both the story, and any highlights from that game forever.

Q: Can I edit a story from the console?
A: No, story editing can only be done at dynasty.easports.com

Q: One the website how do I find the other dynasties I'm in?
A: at the bottom of the header there's a dropdown box that contains all of the other dynasties you are a member of.

Q: My story disappeared whey?
A: If a story is deemed to have offensive or inappropriate content of any kind, EA reserves the right to remove stories and even entire dynasties from the EA Servers.

Everyone remember to save any videos or pics before you exit the game in case you want to post them with or without a story.

[dave]

I couldn't save any videos last week, but supposedly they have fixed that problem.

[dave]

I was finally able to save some highlights from my game. Everyone should save the max of 5 highlights each week whether you play a user or not. I will try to write a story when i have some free time on monday.

[dave]

Everyone should save the max of 5 video highlights a week. We have this new cool feature and barely anyone is using it. Even if you don't have much time or the want to save the highlights you can just quickly choose the ones with the highest letter grade like all the A rated videos. Sometimes it's not possible, but we should do it as much as possible.

The more videos we have the better for later in the season where we can create stories while including videos and pictures. If you lost you can save the ones who cost you the win. Whatever that will tell the story of the game. Remember we can look back on this season and compare it to new seasons highlights and lowlights.

[socbe7]

I haven't had a chance to save anything yet because I've been rushed at my friend's place. Once I get back home, I can start saving videos.

[dave]

Thanks to irvine, and jeremy for saving their highlights. 3 people this week still didn't save their highlights: Playboi, FratMatt, and SD75. Please save your highlight each week even if you lose. The 2 weeks I lost I included turnovers I had that helped decide the outcome of the game. This is the only visual glimpse we can see into each game. Also when I do start to do stories with video highlights I can only choose from the ones that have been saved.

[jeremy]

I made certain to save videos from the last two weeks. I created,converted and uploaded the videos but Im not seeing them on the dynasty wire. I dont even see pictures from my last two games.

[dave]

I can see them on the website on the cpu jeremy.
