Congrats Coach! Hope it was awesome (and not just terrifying)! Sounds like you earned your spot! Well done.

When is this event planned to take place? I am pretty sure that if all necessary info is out well in advance, and the location is on the east coast, we could attend from Finland. We have 4 guys who are interested at the moment.
I just saw this! Would be SUPER COOL to have you guys from Finland come! I think the rumblings say the next one (after #3) will be out east again. Hope to see you guys there. I know I will be at any one out east.

It is definitely possible! But unlikely.
1. the pool of programmers with necessary skillset is smaller than those that do Windows stuff
2. the interest level in NHL94 is less than it has been, so this also diminishes the pool size
In short, is there someone out there with the skillset who is interested enough to do this? Probably not..
But never say never!! -

Idea number 1 is a good idea doesn’t change anything game play wise just enhances the stat category.
Only other change I’d consider is having the rom already set to 2 players VS and 5 minute periods ect.
^^ Yes, that was my #3 I couldn't remember.
Anyway, I know the purists won't go for it (I knew Coach would be in favor of it 0% before I posted!!) but I just don't see the harm. It is still the same "game", even if some little tweaks are done to "non-game-on-ice" factors... -
One two CoachnRaph punch and it it is dead.
No biggie. Just putting ideas out there.

Like many (but not all!), I believe that the Classic League should be, well, Classic. Using the original, flawed ROM.
MOSTLY!
One recommendation I have is altering it just regarding stats. Keep the physics, and game play, and all that the same, but:
1. add the hack/patch that makes after whistle checks not count
2. add the hack/patch that shows the real attributes under Edit Lines
I feel like there was a 3rd stat related tweak, but I can't remember it.
What do you think? Keep the gameplay the same, but add some polish? -
Hey Zippy,
there are varying opinions on this. And it has come up before. (See links below.) (Also, I moved this thread from Bo Knows Best.. fits here better.)
My own feeling is, there is no strategy to winning; it is random. The only thing you can do is use the D-pad to direct it. But as I say, others feel differently.

Brutus, glad you are ok.
I am going to google colonoscopies now. I am in my late 40s. My dad is at this moment dying of prostate cancer, and I regularly get my PSA checked, knowing there is a family history. Guess I have another thing to add to my "worry list" now.
(As people say, getting stuff checked out is better than dying.)
Edit: Ok I googled it. In Canada, no family history means they recommend you get a colonoscopy at 50 years. Also, not all growths lead to cancer, according to what I saw. I read about it here: https://choosingwiselycanada.org/colonoscopy/

My own predicted Top 3, based on win %:
#1 Ice. I remember in the Princes vs Paupers league, the dude had Anaheim or similar garbage and won it all!
#2 Tex. Dude has the skills, and his team isn't horrible.
#3 Coach. I didn't like him putting himself #6 above, so I got him at #3.
As for the ACTUAL standings, based on total wins, that is going to be:
Tex, MikeG, and Coach -- in that order -- who are going to play 100% of games no doubt...
Edit: And Coach your prediction put a bee in my bonnet, not Atomic's. We have played 5 series so far, and he has won 3. I ain't getting rag-dolled here; it has been close.
Edit 2: Also, I think Tex has won Classic B and VHL before, but I could be mis-remembering. (So he has won an online league previously. But maybe you meant PRL, specifically...) -

Top 4 make the Playoffs (based solely on points)
Just noticed this. Is it 2 points per win, 1 for tie?
-
Clarification: I know what WBF is, but what is "CB Fix"?

Yup.
Tex NY
Ice BOS -
I take DET!

Are we drafting players, or just pick a team and get whatever squad they had in the 1967?
-
This is obviously something that the game gets wrong, making blow outs high decibel. The real high decibels would come if a game was tight, and finally a home team scored a hard fought goal. Especially if they had taken a lot of PIMs, and had a lot of shots against, with a goalie standing on his head to keep the home team in the game.
Also, if a home team was behind by a few goals, and suddenly tied it up, and then went ahead!, in the 3rd. Big time high decibels.
Obviously, this would take a little more programming to take into account context. But hey, this game got so much right, I would not be surprised if it did a better job here than it did. -

Been thinking about things, and want to tweak what I said above.
Because this is a Summer League, and in my opinion should try to wrap up at the end of summer, I think playoffs should be:1. top 8 play for "Tier A Cup"
2. bottom 8 play for "Tier B Cup"
Then most guys can still join in playoff fun, but the playoff A and B can play concurrently, making for quicker finishes.
Note: I do love the double elimination, I just think it is better suited for non-summer leagues.
Note 2: I love the league, and am in not matter if there are rule/format tweaks or not.
-
I liked it! I give it an A, for a first go round. It is the perfect format for summer. I also salute J&J for the idea and for running things!
I do think 8 games per team instead of 10 is a good idea.
I love the double elimination idea, except feel it is ill suited for a summer league because now the playoffs will drag on too long. For the same reason -- timeliness! -- I actually think the playoffs should be only top 8 teams, again, to speed up completion time. My preference would to have this league wrap up by Sept 1 through whatever means necessary. In the future, anyway...-

I enjoy these narrated game videos. Thanks for taking the time.
One quick question: Do you use the MK-1653 controller? (The small, original 6-button Genesis one?) -
For salaries, I would look at ADP from Blitz or other WBF leagues. Then assign a value in order, heavily weighted so a top 10 guy is like half the salary cap.
For A guys I would just give them half as much $$ as B guys.I have never done a league like this, but I am just thinking keep it as simple as possible.

So there you have it! Replace every peripheral you have, then move to DSL, and BAM! Problem solved!
