I'm sorry, metz, but I have to weight in against the idea. In theory, it would be fun, but the real problem is guys just not finishing games. If you had everyone completing all of their games, then sure, it would be meaningful, but the idea of relegating the worst two players kinda loses its meaning when the guys at the bottom of the standings took over for guys who lost interest halfway through the season after they lost most of their games. You know, it's just not such an accurate reflection of how the replacement players played. Essentially, the guys who are near the top of the standings in any league play all of their games because there's some potential reward in it for them. The guys at the bottom don't because there's nothing for them to play for. Unfortunately, the potential "reward" of avoiding the drop isn't incentive for some guy to stick with it. The other problem is that you're bound to have guys leaving from season to season in the top division, and where would you go to fill those slots? The lower division, of course. The problem with that solution is that the significance of promotion is lost if several guys get promoted just to fill slots in the top division. Also, some guys would even refuse promotion, since promotion in this case doesn't mean more revenue or prestige (maybe a little prestige but not a ton), but in all likelihood it does mean harder games. So here's what you need to do to make the idea work: PAY US Yes, make us professionals, give us salaries, pay us X amount per game (but make the biggest payouts reserved for the guys who finish all of their games and the guys who do the best.) You think you'd have a problem getting guys to play their games if they were getting paid? And I mean, like, $20/game minimum. Then you can make your rules whatever the fungus you want and those games'll get done. Oh, and only pay the lower division guys $7/game so that there's a real incentive to promote and to stay up. So in the top division, that's 364 games x $40/game ($20 to each player) = $14,560 in player salaries for playing games. Kick in another $10,000 for a prize pool, and that's $24,560 in total payouts from you for the top division. For the bottom, that'd be $5,096 at $14/game, and say a $3,000 prize pool, which makes the whole thing a grand total of $32,656 for one season. And it wouldn't even be that bad, because you know that like, 2 or 3 games/season wouldn't get played for one reason or another. $32,656, metz. You've got money to burn, right? No? Well, get us some sponsors. I'm sure Evan and nhl94.com would be happy to contribute $10, maybe $20 per season in sponsorship. You can probably hit up Mark Cuban for the rest. He's kinda crazy. I see no way in which this plan can fail.

It depends. First, you have to demonstrate that you're a bad enough dude to save the President.

Here's the link to the latest version of the p2p kaillera client (which also supports client-server connection mode): http://kaillera.movsq.net/stable/kailleraclient.dll It *might* cause problems if you try to connect with guys who have the November version. If it does, just try and get them to send you their version, because I think the November version is the one that most guys have at this point. Just stick it in the same folder as your Gens. Don't bother with a fancier version of Gens than the original for at least a little while. If you want to, you can try something like Gens32 or GensPlus after that, but for now, vanilla is probably your safest option.

And that's no lie.

Any idea what caused that spike on the 6th and the 7th, Evan?

Fun fact: one-timers do not count as completed passes because the receiving player never actually takes possession of the puck.

What an egregious error you've made, sir. As punishment, you have to scale......The Aggro Crag!!!

When your team wins the faceoff, you can influence the direction in which the puck goes by pressing in that direction prior to the faceoff. So if you're skating up you can make the faceoffs you win go straight back by pressing down or back and to the side by pressing diagonally downward. If you press in the direction in which your team is attacking, chances are you're going to give your opponents a lot of faceoff wins (which may be your goal if you intend to check and steal the puck back right away.) As far as actually winning the faceoff, I think it's random.

Did it look anything like this: http://forum.nhl94.com/index.php?showtopic=5800

Yes, victory was achieved by me.

My guess is that he found it the same way I found it, which is by reading ESPN.com. For more, log onto ESPN.com, part of the GO Network. GO.com.

swos and Mahavishnu changed the fatigue to make it more realistic. You can't expect a line to skate around for two full minutes and not get really tired in real life, so why should you in NHL '94?

What's the number on this one? 12?

Hey, don't blame me, blame all the lazybones who made continuing the league any longer an exercise in futility.
