you are quite welcome, duder. glad you had funs. don't worry about the karma points, as it won't make a dent in my -723 online karmakounter "points." I've yet to set up a successful interboardmember game around here, so if any of your friends there actually dwell hereabouts, pass on my phonenumber and have them holler at your boy. rock on with a sock on.

glad my two teams (BOS, NYR) made it. here's hoping they get a series together by beating MON and NJD (and anybody else they may need to beat in order to meet). will the two matchups be close or will the shutouts continue (both season series totals have been zero wins for Devils and Bruins)? Bruins have been improving against Montreal, but it doesn't look good. Bueller?
-
anybody feel like making a list (short or nonexistent, I assume) of folks that are on the same team they were in NHL '94?
-
that one doesn't appear to bounce first.
-
this on console or computer?

....You can score on yourself through the back of your net (not really a good glitch, one thats cost me a game or two)... To do so: I believe this only works if you're skating from up to down, (up is your defensive zone, where your goalie is). Have the goalie get the puck, go behind your own net, and pass down... It'll unfortionately go through your own net, which will lead to you swearing at the game.
jeff94rules actually has a video of this on youtube from our semi final series in the classic league. I scored on myself by putting it through the back of the net.
It can happen at both ends of the rink from what I've witnessed.
just had this happen to my opponent in the past couple of days. he was at the top right with his goaltender and pressed against the corner of the net. at the same time, his stick kind of reached around to the front of the goal, making it tough to tell if it went in through the net or across the line (make sense?). goal was credited to my goalie (he was the last of my players to touch the puck). I felt bad.
-
yep. and I think if somebody has enough points they can be ranked above a star goalie. and a goalie could be a star if he faces enough shots and saves at least 90%. something like that.
-
-
And by the way a couple days ago I realized that it's true, the goalie doesn't have to be first star even if he gets a shutout, he just doesn't have to make any saves.
that sentence doesn't make any sense. please try to explain your point again.
-
Or you can make Dany Sabourin your goalie.
wait... who's that?
-
not to dwell on old $#!+, but all teams except mods (unless agreed, I guess) and allstar teams are fair and the guy who wanted to ban the Penguins (HA!) is/was/will be a moron. I guess it could even be stated that any team is fair as long as the other guy can pick the same team or an allstar team. in a tournament, everybody gets a chance at whatever team, so even there an allstar team would technically be fair. I'm much more liberal on this issue than moron number one.
-
kind of looks like it might have landed, but, yeah, fun stuff.
-
HELL YES! im from boston, let f**kin play!
if you can be switched over to the SNES, you are welcome to come by my place to play most any time.

Aw, come on, tru, I don't hate you. I barely even know you, and, I'm sure that if I got to know you, I wouldn't hate you. I mean, I might, but I don't think I should make that judgement without all the facts. Sadly, though, if you haven't seen such a tactic since the third grade, you're either a) in the third grade or
really, really ignorant of the world around you. Politicians do it all the time. Mayors, for example, love to do it when it comes to snow. No matter how bad it gets at the time, they just wait for spring and then declare victory.....followed up by the "then you're stupid" defense. you're on a roll!
-
Jesus, you're still defending this? I'm just gonna declare victory and be done with it.
ah, the classic, super-mature I'm-going-to-declare-that-I-can't-believe-you-are-still-defending-your-point-and-THEN-get-in-the-last-word-myself-and-consider-my-point-proven retort! haven't seen that one since third grade, but, hey, it's all fair here in the land of the Everybody Hates Tru Message Board, as long as it's me on the other side of the discussion.
-
Yes, there is. It's called At Least For A Moment Or Two Because The Ice Is Not A Trampoline.
then a REALLY QUICK up is like catching your balance after a check. please.
-
Uh, no, in real life, if you get hammered with a body check and go to the ice, it takes you at least a couple of seconds to get up. Nobody just pops right back up, ready to keep playing. It wasn't intended to be in the game (you can't tell me that at some point, the programmers at EA decided they wanted a "stand right back up immediately" button), it's unbalancing, and it's just jarring to see it happen since it's completely nonsensical.
oh, so in the real game there is a certain amount of time you must stay down before getting back up? please.
-
Am I the only person who sees the "get back up button" as an exploit? I mean, it's obviously not supposed to be in there, and it greatly diminishes the advantage that a player who delivers a successful check is supposed to receive.
I disagree totally. if you get knocked down, you can get back up (in real life, right?) but you won't necessarily be immediately useful; in the game, if there is an opponent touching you (usually the dude that hit you), you will be clinging to him, essentially using his uprightedness to gain your own. even if it wasn't intended to be part of the game: it is part of the game and a crucial one, as far as advance tactics are concerned.
-
never thought about backskating as advanced tactics, but I do think that using the stand-back-up button is relatively advanced.
-
why are you guys responding to his posts. nothing he says makes any sense.....the guy doesnt even play online......nobody likes to stir the pot more then me but at least i back it up with my play. this guy is just a big mouth with no game. therefore untill he plays dont respont to his ignorant ass
I am not ignorant, but it is clear that you are, because you declare that relevance is based on ability to play online a game that was designed for consoles. I would play with y'all, but I use a borrowed Macintosh which is not really compatible. if you want to swing through my neighborhood, though, I will gladly show you that I have more than enough skill to talk and "walk." nothing I say makes any sense?! this coming from a guy who has trouble spelling and punctuating in his diatribe of crybabyisms. every post I have made makes plenty of sense, but you just don't want to accept my messages; it's easier for you to insult and cry and rant and complain. good luck with that.
still not sure why online play makes somebody worthwhile.
Ninety Flo' for life.

man up and list your AIM brother. Gets tiring doing this s**t over a message board.
I don't have an AIM (I have an aim... of beating you in SNES '94 in person on the console -- ho-o, awful pun!), but I have a gmail account and there's a chat feature on that. titlesong [AT] gmail [DOT] com if you want to try that. man up and stop taking this so seriously. I feel like everybody here is too uptight. this is EXACTLY the place I should be able to trash talk (that is a big part of NinetyFlo', so I'm not sure how y'all do it in online games) and discuss anything about '94. I have set up an in-person game with a local dude (or three) in the next few weeks, so if y'all overreactors decide to punish me for being me, leave me access to the PMs here so I don't lose contact with the dude(s). ooh, I can't wait to play somebody new. it's been too long. that's what SHE said.

....respect the people who built and maintiain the site, as well as those who appreciate the game....people who abuse the site and community really don't fly well....
I have mad respect for the site and the game. that's why I'm here so often; I like to discuss the game and this is a great place to do that. I wouldn't call what anybody does here abuse. unless there is hacking going on that we don't see, nobody is abusing anything here. I think that when I say you must have a controller in your rectum, it is critical commentary on your disposition and your approach to interaction with the hated one and such banter should be well within the realm of discourse and humor here. if it isn't, that is sad.
all love.
Rangers versus Vancouver, subbing in Kovalev or Turcotte for Gartner or whoever is off and Lowe for Leetch. go!

Seriously man, that's enough. I've had it with your stupid comments about how you think the SNES is better than the Genesis. You don't give any good reasons and you don't back them up; you just spew random words aimed to antagonize anyone who prefers the Genesis version, and frankly, it's annoying.
I happen to like the Genesis game more, but do I go whoring around the forums typing derogatory messages at everyone who doesn't agree with me? Hell no. It's just a matter of personal preference, and I'm okay with that. Just because someone happens to like something you don't doesn't give you the right to start criticizing them, especially in a childish, immature manner.
You're not winning anyone over. You're just giving the SNES crowd a bad name with your posts. So in light of that sentence, why don't you just stop posting?
I just realized that the post he quoted and responded to MAKES NO MENTION of the SNES/Genesis debate, nor even anything about either system in particular. people read into what I type what they want to see. I am active on a few other message boards and there is no way the immature reading comprehension and high agitation factor of the posters would fly in those forums. overreacting to conversation and playful insults would get you laughed at, but here I'm the one on the edge of banishment. ha!
I think it's because I don't play online, so I'm not in the clique that runs this place. oh, well. I still love the game. second only to (or tied with) Legend Of Zelda.

....has never played a game online....
I sure wish I could. y'all would have to leave me alone about my posts after I schooled you in NinetyFlo'.

bows down with his tongue out? no, thanks.
and Keith's? is that beer? here's how I will get back to my regular standing around here: beer is for pussies.
anyway, glad I could help these dudes out; they seemed to REALLY need the game and I have dozens, so donating the cartridges was the easiest choice I've made in months. stay smiling, y'all.
