    valid point was about music, running fools over, momentum.  rest was nonsense stuff, at best.

    This is why I gave you a comment, because you are always an arse.

     

    For you to throw your comment at Coach, a guy who does a lot online & actually plays online, compared to a guy who never does but just trolls, it's a full earned...

    Pausing after a goal is usually not to kill momentum though. From my experiences.. pausing after a goal is to:

    1) Display frustration

    2) Signal a nice play

    3) Stop annoying music from playing

    When it's done right after a goal is scored, the music still plays, but the crowd won't cheer.

    In some sense, I feel like a noob.  I've been on here a long time, but not nearly as long as a lot of the "A" crowd, && I've never known it was a signal of nice play type thing by the vets !!

     

    lololol.  Somehow I missed this in intro section.

     

    and I don't believe it stops momentum, just gets rid off he noise/ displays a temper tantrum.

     

    i could be wrong.  Obviously.

    I think Coach's comments need to be put into perspective.

     

    #1. It's HIS retro league.  He mixes players from his roms w/ '94.  So, I understand number changes that go with retro.

    Its also wbf w/ no c/b so we already make mental adjustments.  It DOES cause mental delays.  I sometimes pause game during a stop to go re-look at a roster to see who is who.

    So, it would make sense for the guy doing all this retro work to want it his way!

    I understand Raph taking the gamer's point of view that Plabs laid out.  From a gaming point, it is an extra distraction but I'd not imagine Coach not using the numbers he did given the league/format.

    #2 There are some annoyances with playing the same game OVER & OVER & OVER.  One of them is intros, music repeating & delays. That said, I've always found it a-hole like to pause the game after i score.  Raph does it the most.  I've mentioned it before.  I know there is a lot of old school 94 that is considered standard behavior, but to me, it was always such a slap in the face.  If we were in person, I'd punch you in the balls for sure if you tried to buzz kill my momentum.

    I agree w/ Coach on a 2 week season, we could stop to enjoy his work a little more.

    #3 I don't think Coach is used to winning, so he's not used to all the crap guys do when you beat them.  In this site, tend to get more excuses when someone loses.  Sometimes, the excuse is real.  Could be why you won.  Still, it's generally low class to not take your defeat like a man.

    i always say GG, win or lose & get some goofy lag at times vs you but I never complain.  Happy to have the games & it's the same on both sides, lag wise .

    Ok.  I am aware that there is Classic, and VHL, and Coach's Retro league running.

     

    And, while they are all resource potential hogs to the chance for another league, they also all fall WAY behind interest in doing a large, bring your A game, DRAFT style league.

     

    SO, with that said, F- the competition!  It's time to roll.

     

    First off, it will be a slow roll, in all reality.  Need to give space to the other leagues to slow down, despite my previous verbage.

    Looking at finishing ROLL CALL mid November, AND AND AND a Draft Video, for those who make the league.

    Assume draft runs end of November, and season doesn't start till some time slightly before Xmas.  LOTS OF PRE-SEASON ROMS & TRADING :)

    moving draft back closer to Mid December.

    That said, depending on league size, will affect start times && season lengths.

     

    TRUE GOALS:

    16 coaches, schedules weighted for A & B levels.
    1 month if late start, 2 months if early start (early being beginning of December, late being Xmas time)
    Draft to run end of November AFTER Thanksgiving.

    Moving draft back
     

     

    PLEASE ADD YOUR NAME &&& PREFERRED team if interested.
    ABOUT Plablegs league.
    It's NO PENALTIES edited ROM where B check still works, FAST action, and NO WEIGHT BUG FIX.  ALL HAIL JR.

    UBER UBER UBER!!!

     

    Ignore Mr Nerd.  Uber is your best chance to get where you need to go, and MAYBE also a slight raping on the side.

     

    I had my scariest ride in a long time later at night last summer downtown Baltimore with an Uber!

    I think if you get a super team & get to keep super players for multiple seasons & then get into the finals, it's worth having to start over.

    i like the idea of eventually losing your keeper team if it gets too strong to beat.

    i understand your pints clearly.  They were well articulated with excellent analogies!

    i just disagree.

    Another thing, I personally never liked the idea of "feeding" someone at center. Don't go into the offensive zone with the plan of "looking" for someone. Let the players look for you. So many people mess up their offense by trying to force too many one timers.

     

     

    This is by far one of the truest statements made by the kid.

    When he broke into the zone, you never knew which direction the puck was going, normally patiently though.  He'd spread the scoring around for sure!  As many one timers on a back pass to his forwards as dekes across the zone to the point you didn't know what to defend.

    It does help to be a strong break away scorer.  Less pressure on getting one in every time you enter the zone 5 on 5.  

    ive noticed that guys who struggle on break away (especially me on the past!!), tend to try to jam/force too much & get easily thwarted.

    He's always the center, even without weight bug fix!
