The 4th F will come in for the first injured forward. The 3rd D will come in for the first injured defenseman. Injuries should not have anyone play out of position in the scenario that the first two injuries are to different positions. If two injuries happen to the same position (F or D), the second bench player will play out of position if that injury is the second injury. After that, injuries should not have any effect. This is my understanding of how it works based on the fact that injuries don't have any effect when there are no other healthy players left in the lineup. I have tried to remove injuries and I've been unable to do so. I don't like the idea of the duplicate players because what will happen is: Someone will by accident (or on purpose) end up playing with two of the same player simultaneously. I think having a player play out of position because there are literally no other players available makes more sense. Would I like to avoid it? Yes. Is there a way to completely remove injuries? As of now, no.

I'm just going to leave it. I don't care if a defenseman is forced to play forward because of an injury or vice versa.

From the "Extras" webpage it looks like the game is playable online. There is a "leaderboards" section that can be filtered by friends or not. That's just my guess.

Note that the graphics aren't completed. plabaxipreseason.bin

I will release one tomorrow night.

If nobody is next in line, the injury won't have any effect. The third person to be knocked out will remain in the game.

Cool.

The game won't crash. You'll just have a forward on defense or vice versa. It's the same way in GDL.

My laptop is going down. When it gets to me: 1) Larry Murphy 2) Dave Ellett Thanks.

I'll take Gord Murphy.

Ice takes Hawerchuk.

I will take Bill Ranford.

Modano and 4.8 for Russ Courtnall and 3.13 is the deal.

Stephan Lebeau

I select Tomas Sandstrom.

Thanks guys. Make posts in the official draft thread now.

Really sorry about that. He joined well before the picks happened and I didn't think the draft would reach him before I made the edits and announced it. My bad, next time I'll know to make it public ASAP. The official draft thread is now up. So for now, Lupz is up.

tinyurl.com/plabaxidraft Here is the link to the actual spreadsheet if anyone is interested. I attached a classic version of the ROM we will be using for the league. plabaxclassic.bin

Wait. My bad guys. I forgot to include zeppelin on the list. He's pick 17 lol. s**t

Ok, so we will just deal with a forward playing on defense and vice versa. The third injury to a position won't have any effect.

I will select Modano.

I am pretty sure that the game has a max on the number of injuries. If you play a game with 3F and 2D, an injury won't have any effect. I believe the same may happen here. The 4th forward or 3rd defenseman would come in for an injury, but any other injury wouldn't do anything.

Players react to loose pucks based on hot/cold and awareness. It's not momentum, it's the advantages in the game that create these kind of effects. There are few players with high awareness, but the advantages bump the hot/cold to make players do things like intercept pucks and toddle on checks. Example... In GDL, Sweeney doesn't react to loose pucks and intercept passes, however he does in Classic (Boston has a high advantage, and there are no advantages in GDL).

Everything (the spreadsheet, ROM) will be released when the draft starts. If you want to know further in advance, I guess I can say that the players should play similar to GDL. There just won't be any hot/cold.
