June 16, 200917 yr comment_79256 I'm thinking about starting a Gens league with the 09 rom. I have been itching to get back into a Gens league for awhile and haven't been able to get into one so I'm thinking I may just want to start my own. I'm thinking like two conferences with 12 teams, each conference will have 3 divisions of 4 teams. The winner of each division locks up home ice in the playoffs. Play-offs will have 8 teams from each conference that play in a best of seven. Regular season format I'm still planning out and open to suggestions. Right now I'm favoring a 40 game schedule with 4 games against each team in your division, 2 games against everyone else in the conference, and 1 game against every out of conference opponent. This isn't a sign up thread, just trying to see what kind of interest there is out there and if anyone wants to help out since I have never run a league before. Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_79258 Finding 24 people of the same skill level is going to be hard (especially since blitz is going on right now) I think maybe you should do 12 in an A league, 12 in a B league. Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_79259 Ive always wanted to see an 09 rom with a draft. Im sure that it would attract a lot of coaches. Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_79260 Yeah im in. As far as skill goes...just balance out the divisions and it should work out fine Report

June 16, 200917 yr Author comment_79277 I'm liking the two divisions idea, I think the way to go will be an A division and a B division with 12 teams each. This is my first time ever trying to organize a league and a draft would get complicated for me, so sorry I don't think I'll do a draft. Idea 1 - Two conferences of 6. Play everyone in your conference 4 times and play everyone out of conference 2 times (32 game schedule), splitting home ice evenly. Top four of each conference makes playoffs. Idea 2 - No conferences. Play everyone 4 times (44 games) with top 8 teams making the playoffs. Idea 3 - Two conferences of 6. Two divisions of 3 in each conference. Same schedule as Idea 1. Everyone makes the playoffs. Winners of each division get a bye in first round of play-offs while other 8 coaches play a wild card round. Edited June 16, 200917 yr by kupuck19 Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_79282 try using the 2009 rom with the weight hack fix applied. Makes a ton of sense, as most of the 09 players feel weird. Report

Also I agree with Habs, apply the weightbug fix to the 09 rom. I'd definitely play that (and I might have a friend who would as well). Report
June 17, 200917 yr comment_79289 try using the 2009 rom with the weight hack fix applied. Makes a ton of sense, as most of the 09 players feel weird. Here's the program for fixing the weight bug. http://forum.nhl94.com/index.php?showtopic=8030 It gives 3 options, but I highly recommend Option 1, or at least Option 2. Option 3 sucks Report
June 17, 200917 yr comment_79301 I'd be in for B league. I like idea 3 with everyone making the playoffs. Report
June 17, 200917 yr comment_79302 My vote'd go to numero un, but 2 is also acceptable. 3 just seems unright...plus divisions could get a tad confusing, IMO. Report
