    Deadwing got a reaction from Glawing in Stealth patches   
    Lately, I've noticed multiple "stealth patches". An update happens with clear improvements to the interface, yet it's not mentioned anywhere. I'd like to see the changelog brought back to life with information given what has been done. This should be a far higher priority now than ever since everybody is paying to play.

    Deadwing got a reaction from Mark Z in Top Jerseys   
    Ohh.. didn't notice this thread here for a while.
     
    Well thanks to Matt's pointers, I redesigned the jersey to a much darker color scheme, abandoning the orange completely. https://gameplanhockey.com/team?gpid=49-A
     
    My preferred jerseys since I've gone through them all...
     
    GHL: Deferiet Leopards (clean and distinctive jersey), Brass Castle Berzerkers and Missisauga Stealheads (both nice and easy to recognize)
     
    SHL: Crabtree Defenders, Rocky Mountain House Owls (I don't mind bright if it's just stylish enough)
     
    BHL: Summertown Sixpack (just because it's funny, yet kinda cool), Cape Girardeau Legends (Crisp and nice)
     
    CHL: Finnegan Serpents (One of the few ones where highlight works better than shadow), Dustin White Devils (Cool in its simplicity)
     
    IHL: Butte City Battlers (This league has more meh shirts than any other.. not sure if it's the high amount of computer managers maybe... didn't really check)
     
    LIHL: Fillmore Hillcats, Camden Nighthawks, Torrington Thunderbolts, Ripon Scorpions (nicely distinctive color scheme and easily recognizable), Gravenhurst Hounds (the cool is here), Natashquan Assassins (just like this one for some reason), Goldville Knights (really nice and neat jersey), Harrow Lynx (simply because I think I know where the idea of this shirt comes from), 
     
    Some people like brighter, some darker and some in between.. I was looking at the jerseys and trying to think would I recognize one later. This is kind of moot as well since you tend to remember your worst/best rivalries in any case. A lot of very nice ones, but also a lot of jerseys that I think the manager just didn't care enough to put in the effort.
     
    EDIT: I'm not big on New York Rangers, but as Matt pointed out on chat, the color scheme is not really widely represented, so I decided to run with it while it's still early. If the away jersey ever sees daylight, and I'm going to bug Anders about it until it does, I think using white base color with red highlights spiced with blue numbers and collar will fit quite nicely.
     
    Edit 2: ET2018, your jersey looks good, but it doesn't really make me go ooooh wow! My hometown team used grey jerseys at one point and it's just really doesn't kick me as a main color. I'm just one opinion though. It's very clean and crisp, so if I learn to hate your team enough, I'm sure it's as great of a color choice as any.
     
    Edit 3: Pullman T-Birds, I got you marked as an all time enemy. You took my old logo before I got here! Can't wait to meet you on ice. Fairplay tactic = ridiculously and overly violent!

    Deadwing got a reaction from MattBerserkers in Jayhawks tradeblock [BHL]   
    I'm willing to move Ulrick Neuville - http://www.gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=34482

    Unfortunately, he's growing out of BHL. I'm looking for a good stayathome defender prospect as I already have fairly good guys to take his place, open to other types of players as well, but I'm in a tight spot with salary cap, so prospects preferred. Would love to keep him, but his salary asking will blow through the roof after current contract. I guess SHL should be his future league.

    Deadwing got a reaction from Balazs in Introduce yourself   
    Hello all.
     
    I started playing in the middle of season 12, taking over a BHL team, which was the only available team on a slow world. The team was a mess, heading towards relegation at high speed, but barely managed to avoid it and keep my spot in BHL. I'm still learning, building and experimenting with things to see what works for me and what does not. Hoping to solidify my spot in the BHL during seasons 13-14, and then slowly make my way up once I have more necessary pieces to build a winning team.
     
    I have some experience from manager games. Spent a good while playing Good Hockey, migrated to Hockey Dynasty, and from the ruins of that game I ended up here.
     
    My team is Kingston Jayhawks,  and no, jayhawk is not a bird.
