  1. Holly s**t! Crazy. You gotta post full story when you make it back. Maybe go down to Caracas and get a job? It would be insane to be down there if Chavez dies.
  2. Bump. As of 12/8/12 22:42 Eastern Time, the series stands at 13-12 Canada.

  7. (tldr warning....) Part I: Do TK and Plabax Have A Moral Bone In Their Body /Would They Kill Another Man In Cold Blood To Win?/ How Many Goals are Too Many?/I'll Bet If Hitlerplayednhl94, He'd Try To Beat someone 21-0 Granted, it was in SNES, the stepchild of the 94 community, but Plabax killed a dude 21-0. What exactly goes through your head when, say, it's the middle of the second period and you are only up 10-0? Is it: Not sure if the lead's safe, better score 11 more just to be on the safe side of things? The dude was obviously a rookie. Scoring 21 on him is like a member of Hells Angels beating up an 8 year old orphan. Can he do it? Yes. Does that mean he should he do it? Probably not... it's just in bad taste. TK's had some lopsided wins as well. So, can you blame them for winning a s**t ton of games? No. It's out of your control what league you get put in. If for some reason you are TK and get put in a league that leaves you mercilessly killing LARobbie 4 games in a row, not your fault. Can you blame people for running up the score? This is more a matter of taste. Is it distasteful to beat your opponent into a bloody pulp and then repeatedly drive over his dead corpse with your car, get out, piss on it, and then feed it to wild animals? Some of us would say yes. Others of us would say no. Part 2: You are Robbie and you've been repeatedly beat down by TK and co.: Is this ruining your fun when you already have enough problems in real life and don't need this s**t, too? I used to like this game and now I don't understand what has happened. I don't see the whole 'I only want to be in a league if I have a chance to win' argument. It should be fun to play much better players-- it helps you drastically improve and learn new tricks from the other player. And realistically, TK and PB are splittable. You just need to get fired up, listen to some journey before/during the game, and bring your best and keep trying to make the siren wail. If you lose, so be it, it was to a better player, there's no shame in that. There really isn't any shame in losing. It happens. Anyways, whatever, it's an online game, it's fun to win, it's not fun per se to lose, BUT STILL, there a bigger problems and we (excluding PB) are grown adults who have hit puberty and should be able to deal with losing plus it can be fun if it's a close game with cool goals and friendly competition. Bottom line: If you're playing just to win the tournament, you are playing for the wrong reasons and you've obviously never smoked pot and then thought in cliches and realized that it's not about winning or losing, it's about the journey, man. Part III: Seriously, though, was Halifax high when he put the league together this year? Why does every league have to only have 12 people in it? I realize maybe the talent of teams drops off around 12, BUT STILL, what looks to me like the most fun league ever was when there was a 24 team league in Fall '10. Holy Santa Claus s**t: Icestorm was kicking ass with NYI? Everyone had to play each other? That s**t cray and it looked like a lot of fun. Again, if you get stuck with Pittsburgh in that league and don't do well, no shame. At least you got to play and interact with all the other people in the community and have some fun. As for TK being in B, that's a hard call. He hadn't been in a classic league before, right? Idk.... tough call, but with the weird 12 team limit, who the hell knows where to put anyone. Part IV/Conclusion: Where do we go from here? The world is falling apart. As each day passes, we get closer to death and the end of the world. Society is solipsistic, we value all the wrong things, we destroy our environment, kill one another. With technology, communicating becomes harder and harder. You go to a party, you've been drinking and smoking a little, you're having a good time, there's a girl, forget the girl from that previous relationship, you want to talk to this girl-- you try, but we all know what happens: she already has a boyfriend (what, she's dating that douche? are you serious? dude has the personality of wags (jk, wags, we love you) and the talking isn't good, but what do you say? you've been--- anyways, you go home and start playing some 94. What else can you do? Get another job? Yeah right, you already hate the one you have, I won't even get you started about that boss of yours, how did anyone make him boss in the first place?, but I guess dicks make the company work at it's highest efficiency-- that's all anything's about any more, getting the highest efficiency out of other's, it wasn't fair for you to expect anything out of that... Anyways, the conclusion is let's all get along and enjoy the game and it's okay to lose, no shame in that, if you win, good for you, but come on, did you have to run over that dead corpse 21 times? That's another person, not the computer, which has no feelings and is a dick anyways and deserved to be beaten by raph 53-0 and then have it posted youtube for the whole world to witness the humiliation.
  8. If it wasn't for 94, would anyone know Ron Barr? At what point was he actually broadcasting NHL games?
  9. If there's a waiting list, can I get on it? (also, if there's a free slot, i'd be happy to take it )
  10. Wook and Robbie: You guys have to post the video of these games. s**t's gonna be intense.
  11. There's only one way to solve this dispute: ROUND 1 OF BLITZ PLAYOFFS
  12. WHY THE NHLPA WILL LIKELY REJECT THIS OFFER & THE LOCKOUT WILL CONTINUE http://www.thepensblog.com/2012-archives/october/why-the-nhlpa-will-likely-reject-this-offer-the-lockout-will-continue.html
  13. Sorry to hear this, hokkee. You're a good dude, though-- always one of my favorites on 94. It's happened to the best of us... even happened to Ron Barr... http://forum.nhl94.c...down-sometimes/ (In retrospect, I think that post may have been about you, three years before it actually happened.) Stay well.
  14. Sorry I missed this. TJ&E is awesome. The second one was good too...
