  1. Classic '94 Spring 2008 League SNES playoff seeds

    in League News

    Posted

    Thanks for posting about your situation Hali. It makes my decision easier.

    I'm going to have to concede the playoff spot to Halifax/Fenty.

    I'm too busy lately and will be until mid-July. I probably won't be able to play any games for the next week. I am waiting for shipment of a new computer, busy Thursday, and away until Tuesday. Then, I will be busy towards end of June until mid-July.

    So count me out. Good season. Enjoyed it immensely. Although I think I finished all my games over a month ago!

    Good luck in the playoffs everyone. I'll be back stronger than ever next season!

    Right, but if you concede that means you're a 10-seed and have to play Metz, unless you drop out entirely.

  5. Capitals are done!

    The Washington Capitals limped over the finish line today after three games in which the team went 0-3, but lost twice by a single goal. This concludes their regular season... good luck to anyone who hasn't finished SNES and thanks for having me... hope to feature again in a season where I can do a little better!

  12. I DEMAND A LEAGUE ON THE 2008 ROM!

    Dude.

    Enough with the SNES/GENS "war," it doesn't exist.

    Both.

    Dude.

    There is a SNES/GENS "war". It is on my computer. Kalliera and Gens do not work under Linux, hereby rendering me helpless. And all you 'Get Windows' people, I would rather solely play SNES than use Windows. Kalliera needs to expand to include me and Gens needs to become stable and everything will be alright.

  16. Need a hex editor

    in General Questions & Discussion

    Posted

    I was using hex workshop V5 but the trial expired and i cant use anymore (even if i re install)

    and i tried other hex editors but they are lame format.

    i got a good one now but the "copy/paste" feature is for the not free version. so dumb!

    anyone got a hex editor thats similar looking to hex workshop that will let me copy paste!? :blink:

    I know two good free ones but they're both for Ubuntu Linux.

  18. Promotion/Relegation Leagues for NHL94?

    in Global Announcements

    Posted

    The GENS leagues already have promotion/relegation (being a SNES guy, I assuming) but in a way which lets GENS leagues take the best players from the lower leagues and move them into the 'A' league as the leagues change over time.

    The idea works in theory in NHL94 leagues but again not in practice for reasons stated above, although I think there is a way to get around the problems - a franchise league.

    This means that the coach of the franchise is not important, but the franchise itself is important.

    The best way to do it would probably be 2 divisions of 14 teams, or 3 of 9 teams, because then mod-roms don't come into play, and not make it tournament-style like Metz's suggestion. Cap league rom might work best for this. You'd have an A division and a B division.

    For the first season, have signups, and as soon as the A division fills up everyone else (even unassigned teams) is assigned to the 'B' division.

    Top 8 teams go to the playoffs in each division. The bottom 2 teams in the A league are relegated to the B league. The B league regular season winner is promoted along with the winner of the B league playoffs - if they're the same, then the playoff runner-up is also promoted, but the playoff winners are league champions.

    Run it cap league-style, no checkpoints.

    Now here's the problem - people not playing, replacement players, et cetera.

    Teams which lose their coaches are open for anyone to apply for. Let's say that I get Hartford as my team, and I'm in the A division, but I really want Calgary even though they're in the B division, and the Calgary coach quits, I could say I want Calgary and as long as I'm the first bidder, I would get that team (thus opening up Hartford). If a team is not claimed by an existing coach within 3 days of the commissioner announcing the coach getting fired, the first person on the waitlist gets that team if they want it.

    Let's say there's a team in the A league who no one wants and no one on the waitlist - they would go on hiatus. Games already played would be counted, but that team would be effectively removed from the league until another coach is found. If no coach is found by the end of the year, the goal would be to have a full league instead of a league with a bunch of teams without coaches, and the franchise wouldn't be relegated but instead completely removed from the league. If the league is full and there are 'hiatus teams', they can start up in the middle of the season in the B league.

    Example:

    Both leagues have 14 teams. I play with Calgary. I quit mid-season having played half my games and no one wants my team, and the A league has effectively dropped to 13 teams. Calgary are relegated because they don't have a coach, which sucks, but since it's the franchise, they drop down anyways.

    Different season. I play with Calgary. I quit mid-season after having gained enough points to not get relegated. No one picks up my team, but I don't get relegated even if there's no coach because I gained enough points.

    The problem is that the B league may not have enough coaches after several seasons because everyone wants an A-league team, in which case a restructure would be necessary (before the season, announce you're relegating 2 more teams than normal).

    I see your 85-game losing streak with a run of 34 out of 35 losses AND many games in which I've had a lead of at least two or three goals and blown them in typical SSiG fashion. I shall not give up this fight that easily!!! :D

    Give me my belt back. GFG ;)

    Well you won a game in there. I was losing mine pretty handily.

    I was up 5-0 on shaftman about to win my first ever game, lost 6-5. Repeat numerous times.

    Second Season - Halfway Point

    so 7 games are played no matter what, unless its impossible to come back before then.

    It's like saying 7 games are played in the NHL playoffs no matter what, unless one team can't catch the number of wins the other team has based on the number of games remaining (which will, of course, always be 4).

    With metzgerism's system, you still allow for the OTW and OTL and Ties, though, to make things more interesting - we'll see how it works.

    For instance:

    1 v 4 - 1 has .5 lead

    G1: 1 Wins - 1 4.5 game lead

    G2: 4 Wins in OT - 1 1.5 game lead

    G3: 1 Wins - 5.5 game lead

    G4: 1 Wins - 9.5 game lead

    a bit different, methinks, but it could work. I think you won't see too many game sevens.
