THL (S3) GM Connected: Information/League Talk Thread

ok, its advanced.

remember the rules, trades, waivers, free agent pick ups etc.

ill be posting a thread here sometime soon so we can keep track of them all and know when a team has hit its limit.

also, be careful when calling up and sending down guys. pay attention to their contract situation!

Current Schedule Open
September 30th - October 13th (1st advance is 9/25)

we can advance sooner if guys are able to get all games played!

oh, let me add this. i will be monitoring DNF%. if i see it high for a guy i will PM him along with the co-commish's.

Be aware that while in a game, you will have a DNF until the game is finished.

I was technically at 100% during my first game of the year. At the end of the game it went to 0%.

I will try again today Fiddy...just havent felt up to leaving to go get the game...but i have to be out and about today. So ill try again.

hey BRUCE80 i would like to apologize for playing our game, i thought that everyone was sign up and didn't realized that your were NYR. I got to excited to start the season so i played all my games and juice is the one that told me that you were the NYR. I'm sorry buddy

ugh, that stinks you played the Rangers.

guys, make sure no more games get played vs the Rangers. thanks!

appreciate the apology above though.

No worries man...I have been all over the map with getting stuff done. No apology needed but thanks anyway.

publik drunk i have to ask.. but why do you hop online, offline, online, offline, etc a ton? LOL. your gamertag pops up more than anything. ha!

i had to turn off notifications bc of it.. LOL

Lol my xbox is freezing on a ncaa dynasty tonighy

looks like Nvschultz1325 played the Rangers, too...

at least Nvschultz1325 was nice enough to lose. hahahaha. so BRUCE80 is 1-1 so far.

oh shit...i was just rolling through my games and forgot...oh well i lost anyway lol

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud!

settings are set to default EA settings.

5 minutes/All-Star/Hardcore Simulation.

what issues are you having vs the CPU? puck control? passing? etc.. let us know..

trade has been processed.

Robert Sloop maybe we should bust out some 1 on 1 games instead of jumping in to EASHL... if you see me online, hit me up and we can get some games in. i was pretty frustrated with the CPU myself, losing games by all the deflected goals in front of the net. am hoping that as i play some more, i improve.

next schedule advance is October 2nd.. or sooner! up to all you guys getting the games played.

but you advanced today, right?

yes, league has advanced.

yes, needs to start 8 games. check over the rules thread real quick as well. if you did, you might have missed that information. thanks for asking though!

check em out, bs about it in here..

I'll give it one more week. These settings don't seem to work for me. I'm not the best player, but I shouldn't be losing 6-0 to the NYR. I had only a few scoring opportunities. My team seems to be brain dead. I had a great opportunity in front of the net and my player tripped????? I'm all for a challenge but I want to be out played, not have my team dumbed down to Pee-Wee level. I'm not looking to win the cup...but I'd like to atleast have fun while losing.

In today's game, my player tripped as he skated across the slot in the offensive zone. It was one of two instances where I actually was able to get into the offensive zone. I pass the puck, I'm not a end to end skater, but the AI defense is always there...however, my D seems to be totally brain dead at my end. They get blown by when the AI comes down. When I skate down to my attack zone the AI defense keeps pace with me, but my own guys cant...I don't mind losing because I'm being out played. I am a little happy with the body checks and when I miss a check I expect to pay the price. But, I hate losing b/c my team is out of position and my guys aren't there for centering passes. This is probably an EA issue more than league, but why o why are my forwards standing still when we break out of our defensive zone...I pass it and I have to get them moving when the catch the pass...REALLY? I don't have these issues playing Ultimate team games. I haven't played much of be a GM, so the same issues could exist in the SP version. On the flip side, I love the body checks in this game....maybe that's my game plan, no scoring and just punish the other team physically. LOL
