  1. Anyone needs a salary dump I have 30 million I couldn't do anything with :)

     

    I'm with Europe on Metric system, but whoever thought replacing the decimal with a comma should be shot, what do you do if there are 3 places after the decimal spot?


  2. I'm still around.  I am moving to a new house and it has become a long drawn out process.  Looks like September before most of this mess is over.  I'm still checking the teams everyday just not much chit chat time.  Although Antti your in my conference and the regular season is not the playoffs :), sucks that only one from 3 former GHLs on this side can make it back.


  3. Monday any 1W on the Wolf Trap Claws are up for trade

    Looking for picks or young non 1W's

    or low 80's non1W's

     

    Waiting till Monday cause I have a few trades still up in the air before it goes firehouse sale.


  4. gmta i guess, there were times in the past when you could look at one guy on a search result and go back to the search results.  That was nice but I'm sure a resource drain.  Not sure if caching the search parameters would be feasible, but that would save some time as well.


  5. This is a quote from Rainsilent:  That said I have quickly run into a nightmare of a problem. The player search function when in lower leagues. I know there was talk about addressing it in the past but the only way to get it to work currently is to sort by position+age if you want to look at most of the players actually available to you.

     

    I found this difficult as well.  If you had 2 more search boxes for min and max ovr I think it would solve most of it.

     

    You usually know what ovr you can't afford and the ovr that couldn't possibly help you.


  6. I'm sure they have discussed it at length in focus, I just can't remember the password and don't go in.  Around the 40th work password and all the others just don't stick.

    Doubt I'd go slow on the second account without a quick playoff.

     

     

    Um From Boston and has Def Leopard (good band) instead of Boston graphics???

  7. Looking at the new playoff structure.  I was wondering if on slow and normal leagues if doubling the speed of the playoffs would make sense?  So if a league is 1 game a day, run 2 playoff games at playoff time.  It doesn't make sense on the fast leagues as 8 games a day is excessive.  Just thinking about the players in the middle that are just waiting for the playoffs to end.


  8. What if each world had a chalkboard to post announcements.

     

    Clapper paused - MGMT

     

     

     

    A league chalkboard would let everyone post messages there for all to see.

     

    #75 on the trade block - Southside

    he can't skate backwards!  59 skate - Tioga

     

    Just say this because I sometime roll back the chat to see what everyone is talking about.


  9. 1) Your defenders can't skate.  All the defensive tactics except cons trap need some mobility.

    2) You are at least one Defender short.  Your Defrenders should be getting tired.  I play 7 def with one only playing Spec teams (PP usually)

    3) Way too many snipers. A few should change roles

    4) Goalies are under performing for their stats (still wondering about Defenders Endurance)

     

    If one of the defensive lines is set to an Offensive tactic, I doubt they have the skates to get back against good lines.  It looks like you are probably crushing the lower teams and being crushed by the top tier.

     

    The guys should only hit tired a few times a season.  For now set your Defenders training to easy.  If you have any money get another defender or two.

    Just checked you have some guys exhausted on def :)

    On your roster hit the info tab and look at the last column.


  10. First I have taken teams in Lumber from LIHL to SHL and in MItts from LIHL to GHL, so it not sour grapes.  In lumber I had a really good free agent signing of 4 18-20 year olds in IHL(pre Affiliates).  I rode those guys from IHL to SIlver in 4 years.  When filling out my Silver roster I was sadden to see they couldn't make any of the lines.  One guy was my Captain and had all green traits.  I couldn't just leave the guys watching.  I truly wanted to trade these guys down to BHL and see them do well.  Looking down trying to make any kind of trade was very difficult.

     

    As an experiment take one of your assigned players and try to make a deal with a lower team and post what an accepted deal looks like.

     

    Turning the draft upside down probably isn't the answer, I do see that an 85 ovr player in IHL is broken, but an IHL or LIHL team should not be drafting guys that are 2 or 3 years from playing.  Maybe the real problem is the floor for players is too low.  In 13 seasons climbing through the leagues I was only able to trade 2 players to higher leagues.  Free agents are the only way up.

     

    The affiliate system is lengthening the gap between the leagues.  When you are promoted currently its a scramble to grab good enough free agents to compete.  With 140 ish players in that league on the affiliates you are having a harder time getting competitive.

     

    Perhaps players that are assigned to an affiliate go through a waiver where the league below you can assume the contract and take the player.  Assigning a promising player becomes dangerous.


  11. The draft order should be reversed.  LIHL should get the first picks, etc down the line.  There is absolutely nothing for the lower level clubs to offer higher teams.  If they had the first draft picks they might could swing a couple of the locked away players on assigned teams.  At the very least, it should be every teams 1st round picks then move on to all the second round picks then thirds.

     

    Everyone should play an LIHL or IHL team for a bit.  The only bargaining chip you ever get is an over performer that may fit the 3rd line of the league above you, in his contract year and he is asking for triple his current salary.

     

    The assigned players has made this even worse.  Not only do we not have anything to offer, players that could play for us are locked on assigned teams.
