    I am back from a freshly surgerized knee and I am here to say GFG to Jota. This guy is deadly, plain and simple. He is like that polite guest who wipes his feet before he enters, makes sure to mind his P's and Q's, even washes his own dishes in the sink, but as soon as you start to think he might not be so threatening after all BOOOOM HE TURNS YOU AROUND, HANDS OUT THE SPANKS, AND JUST HUMBLES YOU. Well done again man :)

  2. NHL94Online in the news

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    After having successfully distracted myself again from finals and papers due this week at school I ran across a post on joystiq.com, one of the more popular video game blogs around. You can see the post here and the big thing I want you to notice is the mention of nhl94. Immediately after I read that I said HOLY SHAZBOT out loud and followed the link to kottke.com.

    Now Jason Kottke is one of the more popular bloggers in the United States which means that an insane amount of people jump onto his site everyday to hear whatever the hell he has to say. Afew weeks ago he made THIS post. Now follow that to the bottom and click on the part that says "a multiplayer version of NHL '94 that works over the internet" and "There are even leagues!".

    Now sit back into your chair and think of the millions of people that have likely viewed that post. Now you may say HOLY SHAZBOT.

    Edit: curse you swear filter!

  3. SNES A - Phillidelphia vs. Hartford

    in SNES League Writeups

    Posted

    After McMarkis handed me some spanks taking our series in 6 I thought it would only be fair to do a quick write up about the play. The scores do a good job of speaking for themselves but prepare yourselfs for a summary newhow!

    Game 1: Handsome, confident and sporting the nicest jersey in nhl history, Schwartz and his Whalers take to the ice

    Both teams had some kinks to work out of their game and McMarkis was also competing with some sort of half functional controller. He still managed to make a game of it but Hartford felt in control throughout. I hadn't played McMarkis much if at all in the regular season and it was difficult to gauge the guys skill. I don't think I became over confident but I definately didnt expect what was to come....

    HFD WINS 4-2

    Game 2: Revenge is sweet and so is Rachel McAdams

    Very back and forth for the majority of the game and really set the tone for the rest of the series. All was well until late into the 3rd when McMarkis transformed like he was Optimus Prime or something. The guy became a demon with pants of fire as he methodically took apart the Whalers player by player, sending goal after goal passed Burke. Hartford lost any momentum they had coming into the series and went home to weep, get some sexual healing from their wives/significant others and regroup for game 3.

    PHI WINS 9-5

    Game 3: Heartbreaker in Philidelphia

    It hurt :(

    PHI WINS 3-2

    Game 4: Heartbreaker in Philidelphia x2 resulting in mass panic in Hartford

    It hurt worse :(

    PHI WINS 6-5

    Game 5:

    In a final act of desperation Hartford threw everything they had at McMarkis and was able to squeak out a win. By squeak I mean simply that luck was one my side as McMarkis consistent offense was somehow held off in the final few minutes. The entire series was a great test of nerves as the majority of the games were decided within the last minute of the 3rd.

    HFD WINS 3-2

    Game 6: Fin

    McMarkis finally revealed his true power in game 6 and reminded me that my losses had nothing to do with bad luck or goofy bounces, but simply being outclassed. Every run I took on the net was quickly and completely shutdown as McMarkis took one of the few shutouts I've given in the past while. It hurt my heart but luckily my booze was within arm reach and I was able to quickly drown my sorrows.

    PHI WINS 3-0

    McMarkis: well played and well deserved; I have no complaints going down to you and I am gonna be your #1 fan for your cup race NEVER FORGET THAT.

    It was a funny season boys but if you played me at all this year then you have given me some hapiness along the way and i thank you for it. Now I will end this post but I will be watchin closely as I honestly have no idea who the hell is gonna take the cup. I love it :)

  7. DNPs and FFs

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I've seen a few threads popping up about the DNP's and FF's already so I thought I'd make a nice response to it so we can all be love and happiness again B).

    Jacob and addisonbr have both done a good job of explaining the process with unplayed games this year, and it's important to again remember that the established DNP/FF system was intended on a much smaller scale rather than being a crutch to help us through the situation we have now where many coaches were not able to play out more than half their games. The system is also meant to reward those who have made an active effort to complete their season, rather than falsely inflating someone's record and point standings. I am sorry that things turned out the way they did this year but I want you to have peace and know that the point standings you see now on the Standings page do not accurately reflect the playoff brackets. I talked briefly with Jacob today and both he and Evan have worked out more appropriate rankings and Jacob indicated that they should be up sometime this week.

    I hope that puts some of the unrest to rest and I can promise that no one intends to cheat or rip-off those who have done their part to play out as many games as possible. If there are any further disagreements once the playoff brackets are up you can also post them on the forums or SNES boys can forward them to me. Thankyou and goodnight :P

    Edit: Annnnd after reviewing Jacob's post int he other thread I pretty much repeated all his points. At least now you know....x2 :lol:

  15. Deadline reminder

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I think we've got a pretty good idea of who is most active out of the guys left and I'd much rather see someone with a lesser record who is around more often in the playoffs than someone who looks to be a bit better but has been a phantom all season. Once we have all the brackets setup things should run smooth as ass, as we'll make sure to use people who can play out their games on time.

  17. This league is a JOke and should be shame

    Rudy hit it dead on with the "cuts" but I'm not sure if thats exactly what he's talking about as I don't remember gettin any goals on him like that :D. Now I may be lying out my ass to look noble but I think the majority of them were scored with the patented rudy/deer/nhl94kid deke. I do find that some stuff goes in a little easier online against the automatic goalie vs. rl nhl94 so maybe taht was the issue?

    YES MAN! I was hoping that you would come back and it'd be great if you could continue playing out your games. If your at all interested too I know a few have offered already, but I would be happy to give you some more exhibitions to get used to the online play. Things are a bit different from the original, including the reaction of the goalies as things are a little more "loose" b/c of connections and the time it takes for stuff to go from one computer to the other. Welcome back though :D

    Going with the 20 team setup that we do have, 2 games against everyone would work out pretty nice with a total of 38 games. It is almost more fair this way as everyone would be on a level playing field as you said.

    Having said that division/conference schedule setups make for better playoff races i think. Just like in RL there will always be more skilled teams out there, but knowing that you and your opponent are racing for a final spot and still have a 3 game series left can work magic on yer motivation and playing.
