kupuck19 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 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.

crackawhat Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 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.

Sebe_The_Legend Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Ive always wanted to see an 09 rom with a draft. Im sure that it would attract a lot of coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kupuck19 Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 (edited) 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.

HABS Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 try using the 2009 rom with the weight hack fix applied. Makes a ton of sense, as most of the 09 players feel weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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).

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutbar37 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 I'd be in for B league. I like idea 3 with everyone making the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubaHero Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 My vote'd go to numero un, but 2 is also acceptable. 3 just seems unright...plus divisions could get a tad confusing, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xdeathsbloodx Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Option one for the format IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
