My ? is, is there something Skip could have been doing to make the hot/cold more extreme or to display everything all as one extreme?
Because I've never seen guys with different hot/cold on different ratings in the same game (which is actually much better!).
YES!
Do any of you Rocket Scientist with Cell Phones read anything!
That is the difference between choice 4 and 5 in the Smozrom App.
Skip must have used choice 5 and I did 4 which is what smoz recommends for online leagues.
I use choice 3 for all of my Historic roms and would always be my choice.
Which shows standard NOSE rating for everything but they are actually Hot and Cold and you have to feel it.
Choice 1 is the Original Settings
Choice 2 is Static.

Great post Brutus.
You summed up many people's feelings and why we have the roms done the way we do for most leagues except for mine.
I am fine with that and have happily spent many hours building what I believe to be a great fun rom for this league.
Even though it is not done the way I like.However,
I will continue to beat the drum of why you, me and all love this game as opposed to Tetris or Pac-Man is the randomness and variation it provides.
If the Original game in 1993 had been Static with all advantages equal, and all the randomness removed, I don't believe we would still be playing it.1980 USA vs USSR, my one game HUGE upset win in Green Bay etc...... never happen with those parameters.
I am headed out to coach Regional Track Championships. I would love to know who is Hot/Cold etc..., but I don't.
Gotta feel it and figure it out.I am glad this year we have a gigantic Home advantage as the more talented Las Vegas kids gotta run at altitude and in cold snowy weather.
Can't wait to get this thing started.

Yeah I got no memory of smoz settings 1-5.
supposed to be hot/cold ON (so each game a player's rating can change some) && then in edit lines, you can see the in game rating for your player.
Thats what was discussed & settled upon.
ill try to check late tonight to verify if this is what we have but I'm not near CPU till then likely
No need to check.
That is what you got.Personally hate it.

OK, this has SmozRom choice 4 as recommended by Smozoma for Leagues.
-

All trades, no duplicate numbers (historically accurate), lines that guys posted.
AngryJay's Kansas City Scouts (with player cards)Still not sure what to do on Hot/Cold?

This almost happened in the 80s with the Oilers+$50M and the Leafs
Keyword is almost.
So from now on is it KingPocklington and AquaBallard?
And it would have been whacked.

Do what have to do coach, I planned on going to the line change menu regardless.
Is there anyway to get the Kansas City scouts team in the rom?
98% yes.
I'll work on it tonight.

I need this updated and for everyone to check for duplicate numbers.
I believe Trade Deadline is Wednesday.
So I want to get this finalized.
Washington Lines will be whacked because I want some guys Player Cards (Probert, etc...) to show.
AJ will just have to deal with making some manual changes.
Also Perry Berezan kinda looks like AJ.Uncle Seth is the NY Islanders.
Edmonton is a Super Team you can practice against.We have the Atlanta Flames and Calgary Flames in the league.
We have the Dallas Stars and Minnesota NorthStars.Boston, Florida, Montreal, Ottawa, Pittsburgh, St.Louis, and Toronto plus the All-Star Teams are default NHL 94 Teams.

Atlanta Flames (CoachMac) are releasing Brad Marsh
and Craig MacTavishand signing Yves Racine and Brent Sutter.

My Last 3 picks are:
Mark Howe (on the left in both pictures)
I'd rather have his Dad, but what are ya gonna do!Yves Racine, Sylvain Cote if Mark Howe has been selected.
Then I'll take the last guy to play without helmet!
MacT
I figure he can help me out coaching as well.
I'll take Dave Brown if Mac T is gone.
Lastly I'll take Brad Marsh. The only Atlanta Flame in the Game.
And another one of the Final Helmetless players.
I think these picks are safe and I am done.
I leave you with one Final video, from a time before Gary Bettman ruined the NHL and turned it into the SEC.
I was so hoping for a Gators vs Vols Stanley Cup Final.

Who should I take?
Andy? or Chevy? or Tommy?
All 4 Agility, 4 Puck Control, Glove Stick ratings essentially the same.
172 lbs 188 lbs 164 lbs
THE WINNER IS.......................................................................
It is hard to call someone with the skill set of Andy Moog unfortunate, but he did emerge as star goaltender around for the Edmonton Oilers around the same time as Grant Fuhr. As such, Moog did not receive as much playing time in Edmonton as he would have liked and despite being a valuable component to three Stanley Cups he would seek more responsibility elsewhere. He found it in Boston, where he enjoyed the best years of his career posting personal highs. Moog was known for his outstanding reflexes and despite being very well known he was a touch underrated. Moog finished off his career with an impressive 372 career wins, and though he played with some outstanding offensive teams he certainly did his part in between the pipes to earn them.
Another Coach kind of guy!!!!!
He also has the Best Hair!

While making my old roms, I discovered Dino must have friends at EA as he was not a 5/4 skater, but he is a Coach kind of guy!
At 5'10", 180 pounds, Ciccarelli looks chunky out on the ice, an image enhanced by his hopping, staccato stride. He says that end-to-end he's among the slowest skaters on the team. "But put a loose puck in front of the net," he adds, "and my money's on me." He cannot explain his goal-scoring talent but gives two clues, one of which is his stick. While the blade of a normal NHL stick has a slight loft, Ciccarelli's looks like a nine-iron. This gives his shots exaggerated lift, which helps him hit high corners even from in close. Second, between shifts he seldom follows the play. He keeps his eyes locked on the goalie. "A lot of the time I'll be in sort of a daze, watching him, thinking how he bothers me so much," he says. "I can't stand missing a scoring chance. It haunts me and makes me stare even harder at the goalie."
Dino Ciccarelli was a gritty goal scorer who scored most of his goals from fairly close in. He was effective despite his lack of size, often absorbing hits and cross checks while stationing himself near the opponent's goal.
In addition to his lack of size, Ciccarelli was never a great skater, and his lack of foot speed would have an adverse effect on his ability to play in this era as compared to the 1980's and 90s
I also demand that he be allowed to wear #20 just to screw with Raph's mind.

This is the best way to make no difference where you play.
Road strong is a misnomer.
