It was a while ago so my memory is a little foggy - I just checked on Google. I think it was the following actions: Go to Device Manager Expand Network Adapters Right Click on Hamachi and enable it Let me know if this helps out!

GGs annatar - amazing series, close the entire way. Winnipeg moves on, looking forward to playing Jack Vandal and LA

No one's fault - we were at a disadvantage with a late start due to an unplayed series. I don't think we are holding up anything either, but it should be finished tomorrow!

Been on AIM the past few days... haven't run across Annatar. What times are you typically on? I'm not working again until Monday, so I should have plenty of time to get this in.

The first time I break the glass I will tip my hat to you Brutus. Nice work, Merry Christmas

You'd meet Dex (me), who is in Philly and easier to meet yea but seriously.... the deadline is needed

This is awesome, thanks for bringing me up to speed! I just DL'd the app. I don't want push notifications since that will be going off all the time, but setting it so I can get a text from a PM is perfect. I couldn't find that just browsing through the app, do you have any insight on how I can adjust that setting?

Starting the draft ASAP is really important, thanks for being on top of this Brutus. Also since I can only check the boards before 7am EST and after 6pm EST, being able to submit picks via text is huge. Should we PM cell #'s or something along those lines?

20 teams with all of the traditional fixins'.

I'd be in. I am curious about the rules for name change... I have no real interest in Buffalo, and it looks like my team of many years ago (The Penguins) has a new owner.

I use the B check occasionally... I've never gotten the hang of it like some folks have, so I've stuck with the A-hook. I've been using it since 2006.... hooking penalties don't get called at any greater rate than tripping penalties do with B-check. I only use it in the slot for the most part - it is effective to slow down skaters moving through the slot or guys trying to fire a slapshot. Unlike the C-check you don't move anywhere with A-hook, so you aren't left out of position. Habs - this is Matt Hurray on my new(ish) account. I stopped using the old one when I realized all of my posts showed up in a Google search for my name. As a teacher, I don't need that publicity!

Been playing since December '93..... joined this site back in Jan of '06.... and I've just learned a ton from this thread! I've never personally be able to master the B check... I always end up just switching players and looking like a dingus. However I have master the hook (A button) and am curious if anyone else has found it to be effective. Matt Hurray's defensive strategy: 1. On defense, always occupy a forward, never use a defender as you'll just throw them out of position 2. Sit in the middle as much as possible. 3. If some dude starts scooting into the middle, hook that sumbitch. It slows down the player, prevents shots and passes, and often results in a lose puck. If the B and BC strategy isn't working... try A! p.s. I wish I could add advice on offense, but I struggle enough as it is trying to score.

I really have enjoyed reading people's top 5. I'm surprised that most games mentioned are classic games.... but I find my list is pretty similar with 1 exception 1. The Last of Us (PS3) 2. NHL 94 (Genesis) 3. Tecmo Super Bowl (NES) 4. Starcraft (PC) 5. Mario 64 (N64) #3-5 probably change day to day... but #1 is solidified. The Last of Us was such a great game that it ruined all other games for me afterwards!

Thanks, glad to be back! I forgot how much I missed this game... at least up until I get wrecked in online competition, haha. Next step - trying to make the 16 hr round trip for the King of 94 tournament seem feasible. It sounds like you guys had a great time!

I (Buffalo) should be around for a big part of the night tonight. Send me a message on AIM if you are around and need to get your games in with me!

It was with hamachi. But I went into my firewall settings, flipped some switches, and it all works now (just hosted with Jack Vandal).

Thanks for the feedback. I changed something in the firewall settings.. not sure what, but hopefully next time I try to host it will work. If not I have an idea of what to do. Thanks again!

Hey guys, I've played a few exhibitions so far, but I've only been able to join. I am having trouble hosting (or at least people are having trouble joining). Perhaps this is a common issue with a simple fix: is there a setting in Gens that needs to be changed or do I potentially need to change my firewall settings (not sure if it is different for hosting vs. joining) ? Thanks

Of course it's KG! I remember matching up with him really well back in the day... probably not the case anymore!

It's great to see all of the familiar faces and names! A few new Gens friends helped me out - much thanks to Plabax for walking me through the steps to get my first exhibition games in. I hope he is a world champ because I got crushed!

Sup fellas, Unlike Jagr, my extended absence wasn't because I was playing KHL 94. If anyone is around tonight (past 7pm EST) I'd love to play some exhibitions. It has been a while since I've played so I expect to get nailed! My new AIM is dexpsu83@yahoo.com -Matt

Hello! I'm not exactly new... I played from 2006ish to 2010ish under the name Matt Hurray. I def miss this game. I just DL'd AIM... forgot all my old logins, so: AIM - dexpsu83@yahoo.com I might need help setting up my first game in 4 or 5 years -Matt p.s. trying to join Gens fall but I've forgotten my password for that as well, haha

controller stopped working + too busy these days = I'm stepping out
