Maybe I'm just crying, whatever...
But just a friendly suggestion for all the "good" players out there.
You know the ones who know all the cheesy scoring tricks and use it contantly, all game long...
Can you PLEASE try and pick crappier teams next time around?
I mean, don't you like a challenge?
I'm the kind of player who like to create plays, pass the puck around, just have fun...
but there are too many people here "In it to win it" and insist on LIGHTING UP new players and those who just play for fun.
I don't mind you being "cheep" or whatever people call it, but just choose a less skilled team
Leave Chicago, Detroit, etc for the new players who are just learning!
It's for the greater good and long term success of the league.
Thanks!

Ah Phili.... fiddlesticks, I think they were my last ranked team! haha
Oh well, I'm pumped, going to try and get games going this week!! SWEEET!

Gee
Both live in the same area as me, good connections.

Ah! Nice suprise! Glad I checked in today.

Havn't been here in a looooong time!
Still interested in the Fall league, but I think with such a long hyatus and all the other leagues happening, I thing the first league back is going to be a struggle. All the thought that went into planning multiple leagues, skill levels, etc will have possibly all gone to waste (at least for now). Unfortunatly, when something sits for too long, people tend to lose the momentum.
On a more positive note, I think with some time and effort, this place can be back to the great gathering point it once was. Going to keep checking in once a month, however maybe someone can organize an email list, or Evan can email everyone once he's decided on a start date?
See ya all in the Fall.
-
Any progress here? Doing my monthly check in... doesnt seem like it's ready for registration yet.
Time frame to check back?
-
Hey Rocco,
We should be talking weeks for registration dates.
Ah nice, glimmer oh hope.
Hope it happens.
-
We were making some good progress but now have been hit with the day jobs taking over again. We've been working on the new website, hoping to have it up soon. It sucks that we have to drag this out so long, but there's no other option. The registration page is being updated for the new league, and we'll have updates as soon as we have stuff done.
We can't rush anything, so again, if guys want to setup other leagues in the meantime they are more than welcome to. We apologize for this dry stretch but once it ends we should be smooth sailing for a while.

I just don't get how we couldn't just do 1 more season as it was and you guys could make the changes while the season was going on? It's just a shame that we're going to lose so many of the original players. I know personally... I haven't played a game since the Fall league ended (althought most others appear to be).
I think there will be some forgiveness if things are not 100% right of the hop... I just wanna get some games in before I totally lose interest.
Are we talking about weeks? or months?
-
What exactly are our demands?
Maybe we need to come up with a list and then propose it, then get it turned down, lose a whole season, then realize how unrealistic our demands are, and how overpaid our players are, then end up with less than what we started with.
-
I'm in too... its a long wait for the new season.
Stats would be awesome too!
-
Just want to know if there has been any changes to the dates set and when we might expect a league to get going... I'm already getting the itch to start playing again!!
Also...
I'd like to see team drafting based on a weighted lottery.I like that idea too actually. I think if you take all the returning teams from last year, and weight them according to their finish and then have Evan randomize it, that would be great, just like the NHL. (Obviously we'de have to trust Evan, but I think he's proven he's fair and unbias by now)
-
lets help montreal catch up on his games.
roccopan sorry it didnt work out this time, but i gotta find someone who has more time to get games played.
Ya, sorry guys, I was called out of town unexpected... I spoke to a few guys about getting games in before.
Understandable though, you have to keep it moving.
I sent you a message dmitry, so ignore that.
If there is any other available spot, I'm still interested. I'm usually a reliable guy, just had a rough week.
Appologies, once again.

If I were a fake, I would have zero losses, not nine.
Ya, as if anyone would actually believe that anyways. Way to ignore the issue.
Just admit you juggled your predictions after the results and move on.
All in good fun.
-
My record so far: 24-8
(2) Buffalo (17-20-3) vs. (7) N.Y. Islanders (14-23-3) - Islanders in 6 (NYI wins series 4-1)
Are you kidding me man??
I'm Buffalo and you had me predicted to win in 6, not the islanders.
No wonder this guy's record is so good, he's a fake!!!

I made a simple one a while ago using ASP pages and an MS Access database.
Would highly, HIGHLY suggest against an Access Database for anything. I'd love to join any league that's going on and would be willing to help out converting to a MySQL DB or something.

unfortunately i already have the draft set up, and i didn't want to go over 20 members for the first year. if you are interested you can be on top of the waiting list. sorry i hate to turn people away. i might start up a second league if the popularity is there
Ah, I understand... I didn't get there in time, didn notice this was here.
If there is a spot, I'll take any team.

rocco, that's some good sportsmanship there. Having you wanting to play games for sake of getting your games in is a great thing to hear!
Ahh. Thanks.
Look how nice everyone is getting along today.
Great, so if I get around to playing those games, then I'll post them in the manual forum.
I just figured we might as well play if possible. Looks better to have a clean sheet.

Too late to join up????
Hope not.

Just wondering if it's possible to finish up the reg season games that were not played?
For some reason I was given a loss against Montreal in the GENS B, but I posted in the "Schedule a game" in time.
I've spoken to both Montreal and Boston and both want to finish up, so my question is this:
Now that the playoffs are set, would be it be okay to play those games, just for fun and complete the season (for the sake of our long term records)?
-
For a player in the ‘B’ league I gave a value of half of that because I believe the ‘B’ league is half as good as the ‘A’
Wrong.
-
Is this argument going to end any time soon?
Honestly guys. The league is fine, just be happy it's here.
-
Easy Doc.
i'm here, you're scared!

Hey, I guess this is mostly for Evan and co, but just wondering what the projected date for this seasons deadline is looking like?
I know there was some delay last season before the playoffs, just wondering if there is any delay forseable (out of town, busy, etc).
I just personally hate to have long layovers without competative gaming, so just want to space my last few games accordingly.
Thanks

Wow, I was kind of suprise to see so many hits... just sadly I think a few people missed the point.
Maybe I mis-stated, but I think what I mean is more like this...
Anyone who's been around here for a while will remember some of the best NHL94 players using crappy teams (kgman with Hartford for example). I'd like to think that was because guys with serious skill like a real challenge. I would just think that a knowingly good player would log on and purposly choose a solid team know they'd come on here and just kick the crap out of people! haha
I was just thinking, in an ideal world and for the betterment of the site in general, it would be nice to see solid teams picking crappier teams and leaving the better teams for guys who are learning so instead of winning 10-0, maybe you win 5-1... haha wouldn't that be sweet?
Or dare I suggest people voluntarily switching to crappier teams once they realize they're dominating their league?? wow! What a crazy concept!
Guys, go out.. have fun... and play fair.. if someone stinks - try to take it easy, espeically the newbies, or these guys won't stick around (then you won't have ANYONE to play!
)
