  1. The checking value has to be at least 2 greater than the weight to successfully check. Example: 6 weight with 6 checking gives a checking value of 10.4, which will give the ability to check players with a weight of 8 or less.
  2. Raph can sleep easier now that I'm not in his way!!!
  3. Manual Goalie is hands down the best feature of the game... get with it
  4. It's not everyday you get to play with Yzerman.... and I also see AJ didn't get an "n/a" for GDL 13 despite not picking his players, and I didn't get one either for GDL 09.
  5. How does FPB get "n/a" in GDL 14 after I swept him?
  6. I noticed I don't come close to contending for any of these records because I score a lot of points with my defensemen.
  7. The most efficient way to do this is through a group chat (on mobile) that is solely used to schedule games. A good way to do this would be through Slack. It has to be different from AIM because AIM will give notifications from things people don't want to see. Slack is also more polished and has more customization options.
  8. In other words, Lupz is suggesting the two nights are switched around every week with one being a weekend. Every fourth week will have both nights on weekends. I assume these are for next season and future leagues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ My personal thought: 4 hours may be a too long of a window.
  9. Two weeks to spare on vacation but can't spare 10mins to play some games.. real funny
  10. AJ makes a good point with the rust. But: The guys who complain are the ones who HAVE to reach out to others, and are tired of doing so. The ones who don't complain are the ones who wait around all night doing nothing because they are waiting for the last days of the deadline to squeeze in the games.
  11. I'm dropping this tournament. Fun idea, but it has taken too long.
  12. The point of the thread is to figure out where the Blitz league is. Chaos said he was going to start it, and I don't see it. Chaos is the commissioner so it makes no sense for me to run it without asking just because I think I can do it. That's like me taking your car keys and driving your car because I think I can drive it.
  13. Get real dude. Shopping? Cleaning? Yard Work? You must shop for a family of 25 and live in the world's biggest mansion.. Nobody spends a lot of time doing those things. Again, you probably have about 52 hours of free time a week. Shopping/Cooking/Yard Work/Cleaning/Commute Time/ + your kid in sports is not going to make you "busy". Being BUSY is what happens on the odd day where uncommon things happen to be scheduled on it. Maybe you have an appointment after work and then you need to pick your daughter up from the school play rehearsals after. Maybe it's your daughter's birthday party and you have to pick up a cake 30mins away from home.. Being busy is not coming home from work, washing five dishes, sitting on the couch eating potato chips complaining about how exhausted you are followed by a nap.
  14. be around for the final week/weekend of the season guys
  15. Nice joke.. 168 hours in a week. 56 hours of sleep, 50+ hours of work, we'll say 10 hours for the kid. 52 Hours free split up between whatever you like.. You should have at least seven hours of free time a day on average like most "busy" normal people..
  16. GDL = Gimmick Draft League GDL = Genesis Draft Luck Where is Blitz... It's go time!
  17. Let's try later tonight (12-1AM) EST?
  18. I am convinced that right-handed players are faster than the left-handed ones. Obviously we can test this but in my head it just feels like the left handed skaters are clearly worse at skating. I wanted to know if anyone else has felt this before there is an actual test. Klima/Gartner seem faster/quicker than Courtnall/Modano. Davydov seems faster/quicker than Sanderson/Reichel/etc.. Oates seems faster/quicker than Fedorov. Now this could very well be untrue but we do know for a fact that right-handed players do move differently from left-handed ones, so I think it is possible that the speed or agility is affected as well. Thoughts?
  19. I am getting confused. Isn't it still random regardless of consitency? Say you flip a coin, heads is a penalty and tails is not a penalty. If you flip a coin 5 times you are likely to get less penalties than if you flipped it 500 times. There is still a 50/50 chance each time you flip a coin, so wouldn't it still be random if the guy who flips 500 coins consistently has more penalties than the guy who flips 5? Not everyone flips the same amount of coins, so you can't see it, but it still truly is random. Am I wrong here?
  20. The penalties committed by the computers are random. What if I get 80 pims from the computer and commit 4 myself while brutus gets 60 pims from the computer but commits 50? Player styles don't have any effect on the randomness, which is why you see guys fluctuate from top to bottom.
  21. You can't control whether or not you get PIMs, so is it not random? If penalties were NOT random there would be a way to never get them. The computer committing a penalty is random. You can't control whether a computer commits a penalty or not, it just happens. Stats show that penalties are not player-specific, so it's not a "roster" decision. Many others have had Svoboda and gotten considerably less PIMs despite playing many more games and getting more body checks. You guys can keep coming with the "it's not truly random" argument, but why would you classify it as something else? Maybe getting a PLAYER-committed penalty is not truly random, but it pretty much is for AI-committed penalties. You can avoid getting a penalty as a player but you can't avoid getting them from the CPU. Better way of putting it.. you can never touch the controller/keyboard but commit penalties regardless. Whether or not playing style factors into it is irrelevant because coaches are still affected by randomness.
