  1. Nice to see an old thread pop-up again!

    Looks like my image links have all expired from the old dropbox, will have to upload them to imgur.

     

    Oh, and those Saturn reruns look really sweet. May need to get an American KO94 attendee to deliver one to Toronto for me. Will gladly swap for good beer.

     

    [edit] - just looked at my join date. 2009. A whole damn decade.

     

    [edit] - fixed the image links

     

  2. - 10-15 minute presentation before tourney play starts to discuss the benefits of playing online, draft leagues, 2v2.

    - I've thought about this for a while, what about devising a free USB drive with all necessary files that guys could just "plug and play".

    - What about giving away "bootleg style" DVD copies of the many created roms (with a folder containing links to the NHL94 sites, and files necessary to play online) 

    - Have a laptop handy for guys to sign-up on the site - maybe provide some incentive (free program? cheatsheet?)

    - Maybe offer a "live draft league" mini-tourney for guys that don't make the bracket play. 

    Just spit-ballin'

  3. 3 things to consider:

    • I think you could allow both, allow for a coinflip winner to choose the tier - or leave it to a dice roll
    • Make the dice roll simply a guide, do not enforce it as a "rule"
    • I really think the bottom tier should not be included in the dice roll - create 6 tiers that exclude OTT/SJ/FLA/ANA. Maybe put TB in the 6th tier

    With regards to these ideas, I just would hate to see a deciding game roll a "6" and have to watch an important game decided by shitty teams because of "rules".

  4. If you need numbers, I'm willing to play it out. But 10 min periods is a stretch for me too. I get it though, if you want to force people to use the other lines - 5min periods is not enough.

    Maybe shorten the schedule to H/A within your division, and alternate H/A with inter-divisional games?

  5. I've seen this and similar leagues before - just never been that interested in the daily activity requirements. Always liked the Sim GM games, where you act as GM/coach signing and trading players. Started with one called SIMHL, totally addicting. The site is still around, but has been hilariously locked on the same rosters and players from the early 2000's.

    Recently, I've been playing hockey.zengm.com . It's a good sim, that let's you play out entire seasons in about 30mins. No NHL licence, the teams/players are all fictional. You get to select your team (easy/med/hard all based on your city's population), and randomly assigned a group of players. You get to decide whether to add to it, or tear it down. Free agents, rookie drafts it's all there, super fun.
