halifax 429 Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 When: January 10, 2014, 6PM CST Where: Sports on Tap Why: To compete for an NHL94 trophy (Mikey's picking one up) Participants: 1.stheds2000 2.the90jacket 3.tylerdeanhill 4.halifax 5.CJ (driving up from Regina, SK) 6.Mikey McBryan - driving from calgary 7.8trsGona88888 - driving from calgary 8.AngryJay93 - flying from sacremento 9.Slapshot67 10.Logan 11.Matticefire. - driving from edmonton 12.Schwartz - driving from winnipeg 13.Schwartz bud 1 - driving from winnipeg 14.Schwartz bud 2 - driving from winnipeg 15.Fiddz Tournament Rules: -5 minute periods, no offsides, penalties on, no line changes -A triple elimination tournament. -Any game that is tied after OT, will simply be reset and played until there's a winner. (injuries, penalties wont carry over).-Coin Flip - winner picks either Option A or B---Option A - player chooses the two teams that will play---Option B - picks his team from the choices provided and gets to choose home or away-Whichever coach picks Option A, can't pick that same matchup of teams for the rest of the tournament. (The other coach still could however.) -If the same two coaches meet later in the tournament, then they'd automatically reverse coin flip results form their previousmatch up. ie, previous coin flip winner is now coin flip loser. (and reverse again if they meet for a third time, and so on) Mikey and Kaetyn are driving up from Calgary (about 7 hours away) to do play in the tourney and do some filming and some short interviews with us for the NHL94 documentary. We are all really excited about this! Can't wait! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

halifax 429 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 You do realize this is SNES, right? At one time, I considered the AJ best dual console player on the site. He had a 27 game win streak in one of my leagues way back in 2007. (longest win streak on the site I believe). Having said that....between you, him and boknowsnhl94 (the top three imho)...it would be interesting to see who would come out on top in a GENS/SNES combo tourney.

Logan 0 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Had to dust off this old account to get in here and say how excited I am for this tournament and the documentary! It's awesome to see this community is still as busy as ever, and even better to some familiar faces still kicking around.That being said, barring the odd game on my laptop against the computer waiting for a uni course to start (or just killing time while it's being taught,) I'm so out of practice and am gonna have to get my ass in gear with a Rocky montage this week so I can finally taste gold. See all you buds on Saturday! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Kudelski 146 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 I wish I could come. My old boss always used to say Saskatoon is the only major city in Canada with angle parking downtown . That true? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jer_33 242 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Guys need to set-up a Ustream channel and broadcast the event live. A good cellphone camera and WIFI should do the trick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
