K so are we going to have some sort of NHL tournament?
Since all of us who have been playing thought it would be a hot idea, I figure we might as well start some discussion on it. I remember Kapoutman saying that he could put up a page on Kapoutland or something for it, which would be hella cool.
Basically I'm not sure how it would work. We could just do it like a "play-offs" type thing, have best-of-7 series with people and all that. How the matches are determined, I have no idea (hence the thread for discussing possibilities). So yes. Before everything, if you're interested, reply here so we'll have a good idea of how many people will actually be involved. I'd assume there'd be roughly 8-12 or so, maybe more, depending. So maybe we can get a lot of people, then somehow determine who the top 8 are, and go from there. SO YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, reply here if you're interested, and give some suggestions of how it should be run and whatnot. |
yeah im in
|
shit, guess I should turn on soulseek again to let outlaw finish downloading it
|
I CALL VANCOUVER
|
I still don't get the rules and why you're not allowed to whack the donught up the ice rink.
|
So you better count me out.
|
I don't know if you'll be able to call a certain team. :mad: That would most likely be best, but we'll need to come to a compromise if two people want the same team. :o
If everyone's cool with playing one team all the way through, then Penguins 4 me :mad: |
Weren't they in the film Sudden Death?
|
if anyone else wants vancouver it's just to fu</>ckin' bad :foc:
|
This bitch has claws Wrow!
|
j/k I love you really Tony :kiss:
|
I'm in, and Tony you don't have to worry about updates...I actually purchased NHL 2004 :o
|
I would be in if I didn't have too much homework to have proper fee time. :'(
Fu</>ck I hate school. |
I'm in. Your First Round jobber is here.
btw, I call Senators :mad: |
i'll be in
|
If you need someone to make up the numbers I could probably get hold of a copy :shifty: over Easter or something.
On a related note there should be a ZSNES tourny one of these days :mad: |
It should be run by having everyone be destroyed by me, which will happen anyway.
I will also destroy MMM in ZSNES (again) I call Tampa Bay BTW |
I'll go DL it and try it out...
also, I call the Avs ;) |

As long as all my game's take place before 4pm Mountain time. I'm in. As the Pens. Yes the Pens, fu</>ck you.
|
Fine I'll just smack you all around as St. Louis then. Tkachuk is the man.
|
wait I wanna be the leafs, ill lose in the first round though :$
|
actually I still wanna be the canucks so **** you all
|
so the 219 MB version on Suprnova works good?
|
Yeah Dave, that's the one I'm on. I think the other one that Ant has (like 600 mb or something) actually has sound. The one I have (219 mb) has the sound, but no music. Or commentary.

I could school you at MK64 or MK: DD!
However, I am pitiful at the SNES game. However again, let's get back to the tournament please. :rant: Still would like some more input from people about what rules and shit they want. When I play with others, I usually play it on 10 minute periods with the difficult skill level. Actually, I'll screenshot my "game setup" screen and post how I usually have my options set up. People can then agree/disagree on those options, and we'll get some rules set up for every game and whatnottttt |
I tried downloading this NHL thing from Soulseek to see what the fuss was about but the person I was downloading it off went offline :(

K for the rules that's nothing too much to discuss really. Is everybody cool with how that's set? Or do people want anything different? http://home.cogeco.ca/~tirving10/rules2.jpg Also, not really as important, but obviously the goalie/player boost should be at 0 apiece. I think having line changes on is better too (but certainly up to debate and for a vote amongst everyone), as it gives teams with a less-than-stellar top line a better chance to compete against say, Vancouver. Also, I think that the manual/auto shot aim should be personal preference, as it only really affects the players' ability, and not the game itself. Also, Straka > Naslund SO HIT ME UP WITH SOME THOUGHTS PEOPLE. Also, keep replying, to those who are interested and haven't said anything yet. |

Oh yeah. I just realized, since it's a tournament and all, the OT thing definitely needs to change. Should we just do it traditional NHL playoff style? (continuous OT 5-on-5 until a goal) Or would everyone like something else? |
If someone could explain Icing and Offside to me, then that'll be fine.
|
i would like no ties in the overtime, continuous 5-on-5 would work well i presume
|
icing - dumping the puck in from your side of the middle red line and it going all the way down to behind the net resulting in a defenseman from the opposing team touching it
offside - when one of your teammates without the puck goes into the opposing zone and you enter with the puck after them |
Quote:
The guy with the puck has to be the first to cross the opponent's blueline, if one of your other guys has crossed it beforehand (and is still past it) and you go past it, it is offside. Like in 2v2, when me and Toni rush down the ice, and he has the puck say, I have to slow down when I get to the blueline so he crosses first, then I follow him in. It flashes up under the score when you are offside too :y: |
Oh and those settings are all good, if we are going best of 7 games, then Continuous OT is the way to go :mad:
It's just how are we gonna draw the teams I guess :-/ Oh and you seem to have accidentally put seksi and jobber the wrong way round :naughty: |

Quote:
aslong as the puck goes across first |
Quote:
In this case, think of the blueline as the defence in football, passing it to a player who has crossed all the defence/blueline is offside :o Oh yeah and you;ve got the 2 line pass too, but i'm not sure which lines it applies to, all of them i think, so passing it over 2 lines = whistle too |
*growl* the 219 MB version doesnt seem to be working...
I'll run a reinstall later. |
Growling at it won't solve the problem Dave. Actually maybe you're not growling at it enough.
|
So are we playing 7 game series? I'm fine with that but it might be a little to much. I mean TPWW does have a bad record when keeping up with tournaments.
|
mitch sounds like he is afraid to face me
|
I'm that transparent? :$ You are lucky HardkoreUK called Ottawa or I would make you have it or should I say Havlat.
That play on words sounds alot better when it's not in text. :o :mad: |
touché :o
Perhaps I shall be the Ducks and make you Havelid :foc: |
Hmmmm Mitch has a good point. Maybe make it best 2 out of 3? Or 3 out of 5?
|
yeah, I was gonna suggest the first round be best of 5 then switch to 7 games in the semis and finals.
|
also one of you nobs, lets have a game
|
if we can get 8, make it best of 3 then 5 then 7?
but what if we have 16 :'( perhaps just single KO games for a qualifying round :o? |
I will playyyyy
|
|
I want to play and i am calling detroit.
|
It won't go online :'(
|
you can only play direct games I think dave
|
sooo people that have signed up now are:
RDD Y2Ant penner cheeba splaya lodownm outlaw dave kapoutman mitch_h if im missing anyone let me know, that's already 10 teams.... 6 more and we can have a full playoff tree :eek: |

|

|
all you need to do to play with us is click Online Mode, then connect to the IP or create a new game, depending on who's doing what
|
Add these to the list: Klepto Klown, Silent, Jerichoholic, YOUR Hero (I think he has it or is getting it)
|

|
Quote:
Toni, be the Ducks :mad: |
Aight you've got 15 there, like I said I'll fill in if you get desperate *but* I can't play until at least Sunday 3rd :$
|
just a suggestion but if we actually have this many people perhaps we should have like an A side and a B side tourny... like just one random game against another person in the tourny... the Winner goes to A side loser goes to B side
then the winner of the A side plays the winner of the B side in the finals. |
someone play with me...
I'll be loitering in tpww/ pw: tpww |
I'm not too bothered about being in the tournament or not but I downloaded the NHL 2004 file from some ditzy bitch and I don't know what I should be opening it with.
|
:(
|
winrar will open it btw
|
winrar?
never heard of it, I'll look on Soulseek :cool: |
|
Man I fell for it :mad:
|
|
Cheebs would you like to get a game?
|
cut off to sign up is 10 my time that's central time... SIX HOURS FROM RIGHT NOW.
the way it's gonna work is just like I was saying with the A-side and B-side what's going to happen is im gonna randomly pick games to decide the A-side and B-side.. winners of there first games go to a-side losers go to B-side... the finals will be the tops teams from each side. the third place game will be between Number 2 on the a-side and number 2 on the B-side... any questions let me know. |
Are u appointing yourself the commish then?
|
And are we playing best of 5 or 7 during the A-side and B-side games. Also this is me signing up again in case if i have to do it again
|
I'm going to kill you bitch!
|
Mackem do you care for a game?
|

;) I need winrar or something unless MoRcHeEba is lying about the program existing :mad: I'm going to bed thinking about how you've screwed me tonight MoRcHeEbA :foc: |
Oh my The Macrumb
I have WinRAR you nob |
I hate you Ant.
Also yeah cheeba signed me up. :$ I don't really know who's good and who's not besides like Dallas, CO, Anaheim, and maybe St. Louis? SO I DUNNO |
Right Ant be online at 6ish.
|
I'll be waiting to molest U
Yeah Anaheim aren't really that good, they are an underdog team that kick ass btw :o Although their goalie Giguere is the man, as is their main center Mr. Federov :love: I'd say the best teams are Detroit, Colorado, Vancouver, Dallas, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Tampa Bay, St. Louis, Ottawa Then you have Boston and Toronto who are statistically good, but ghey in real life :shifty: |
Don't bother throwing me in. I'm losing my computer this coming monday or tuesday, so I won't be able to keep up.
