  2. BLITZ LEAGUE STARTED

    in Blitz General Discussion

    Posted

    you know you're right about the ping, I just played a game and it was a little lagging. I'm 8 hours ahead of Eastern Time Zone US. I'm ok with any games at 8am and after my time (12 midnight EST) or until 12 midnight (4pm EST)..

    Do you think this is going to be too much of a problem? I hate to forfeit my spot and cause any complications in the league as this being my first time. Still wanting to at least try and play another game.....

  3. GENS Classic - Fall 2008 - STARTS NOW!

    Ok guys,

    Just went through the long political, and very tedious process of removing my firewall so I can use AIM and netplay! The major internet provider here in Dubai (Etisalat) has extremely restrictive rules for even residential connections. They've gone so far as to block skype activity. You should have seen the look on their face when I told them what I was trying to do smile.gif

    I'm a newbee to this league, but a veteran to 94. Due to the time difference and my inability to stay logged on 24/7. can people email me at newcomb.matt@gmail.com to arrange some game times, or post on here. I hope this doesn't sound stupid, but am I missing the main method of scheduling games by writing this??

    Look forward to hearing back soon,

    Matt

  9. Blitz League accepting new coaches.

    The Blitz League needs a few coaches to take over some of the teams with missing coaches. Also, there is always room in the Blitz Farm League for coaches who don't get a team. If you do well in the Farm league, you can get promoted to the real league.

    How to Sign Up

    To sign up, post your AIM account name below.

    AIM is the de-facto communication method for the NHL94 community (for setting up games), so you must have it to join the league.

    Quick league summary:

    • There is an "A" league, a "B" league, and a "Farm" league.
      • "A" and "B" have 9 teams each (expanding to 12 next season).
      • "Farm" has everyone else who wants to join (they'll join "A" or "B" upon expansion, or when coaches quit or disappear)

      [*]Promotion/relegation at end of season

      [*]The ROM uses the Weight Bug Fix so that players with high weight and checking skill can actually check, and light guys get knocked over easily (if you can catch those speedy buggers!). Lindros, Neely, Stevens, etc. are tough now. Gretzky, Fleury, etc, are weak, but hard to catch.

      [*]you keep half your team between seasons (randomly, but evenly, chosen), and there is a draft for the guys you lost.

      [*]Goalies have been improved about 6 points (except belfour and roy).

    I think we will need to replace 2 coaches, but even if you don't get one of the teams that already exist, you can still join and play in the Farm league. If you do well in the farm league, you can get promoted to the real league.

    ---------

    Current signups

    1. rynweinmeyer - (now has L.A!)
    2. Houlanov

    Also, AngryJay93 is going to be inserted into the league as an expansion team, but he will have to pick his players from the free agents. I can accept one other person who wants to join this way, but be warned that your team will be brutally bad!
