I'm pretty open this weekend, i'll be down to play this month since i had to give up my spot because of schoolwork

 

[Milly79]

Ill sit

 

[Blinding]

I can play whenever.

 

[Giant Robot]

how do I participate in this Playoff draft?

 

[Blinding]

how do I participate in this Playoff draft?

Typically you'll get to play based on how many games you've played with the club and then I'm assuming it goes based off of performance. I didn't play too many club games this month (damn schedule interference >>; so I'm on the assumption I won't be playing, though I'll gladly take a free spot if one is provided. :>

 

[TheVisualizer]

how do I participate in this Playoff draft?

its simply the 5 players that play most games during that given month gets 1st dibs on a spot on the playoff roster, the count is kept by Marvie and is reset each month

after that its up to those 5 people who have played the most games that month on their availability, if someone cant make it, then it goes to the next person in line (game played), etc...

I always play damn near the most games so I'll be near the top of the list each month and have decided to give up my spot to someone else to let them taste EASHL playoff hockey (unless we cant find 5 people to play...)

unfortunately i didnt see your name on Marvie's list so doesn't look like you will get a shot this month, gotta play more my dude!

this year's policy is all about rewarding those who put the most time and effort in, your performance has absolutely no factor in picking the playoff roster, we are trying to keep it as fair as possible

Sounds fair to me.

Rev
Jonsson
Noz
Legit
Swim

Alternates:
Dok
Moop
... more to be added by Marvie

 

[BigJonsson]

Oh no, I might have to play forward :|

 

[TheVisualizer]

Oh no, I might have to play forward :|

u play better there anyway

no BS you've improved a whole lot since you first joined this year, all it took was trusting ur teammates, rather than carrying the puck in everytime and trying to take on the whole team by yourself and as a result youve become a good player for us and a lot more enjoyable to play alongside

 

[BigJonsson]

Thanks

I told you all I'd get better


I've been killing it on D in drop in games lately

 

[Milly79]

Never ever ever. No.

very smooth

 

[Nozdeuce]

I'm going to sit this one out, haven't played at all much lately.

 

[Marvie_3]

So is anyone playing? :lol


Sunday night is the only night I could possibly play if we don't get enough people.

 

[moop1167]

I can play Sunday night *possibly* when I get back from this trip. I'll just check the thread and see where we are at.

 

[Blinding]

I can play tonight after the Canes game, and pretty much any time this weekend.

Also, I've been playing D a bit in drop-in games, and wow, not having a proper back checking forward make things impossible.

 

[Marvie_3]

I can play tonight after the Canes lose, and pretty much any time this weekend.

The Canes haven't lost to your silly "Hawks" at home in 13 years. :>

 

[Marvie_3]

The Canes haven't lost to your silly "Hawks" at home in 13 years. :>

Considering how bad Chicago was for most of the last 15 years, that's not really much of an accomplishment. :lol

 

[Blinding]

Considering how bad Chicago was for most of the last 15 years, that's not really much of an accomplishment. :lol

Considering how bad the Canes have been since the '06 Cup, I'd say it is. lol

 

[BigJonsson]

I'll be home around 11ish EST tonight

But all of you wanting to play in the playoffs need to post your full availability so we can set a few times to play

 

[Red_Man]

I'm up for some games tonight, staying in to rest up for tomorrows festivities.

 

[Revenant]

i'm available later tonight, but it'd be late like 11pm-12am eastern.

available most of the weekend though.

 

[TheVisualizer]

sounds like the we can try to make this happen around midnight EST

We can try to go with this lineup:

C- Blinding
LW- GiantRobot AKA TackleJerry
RW- Big Jonsson
LD- Rev
RD- Red Man AKA Legit

I PM'd Tackle to see if he's available tonight, if not I'll jump in and play C or Winger

-----------
to Red Man, you mentioned you were down to play some games tonight, unfortunately we cant play any games until we finish the playoffs win or lose

the next game we attempt to play is our 1st playoff game

for those that dont know how it works, playoffs is a single elimination tourney where you have to win 4 in a row to win the monthly banner. Its setup like a normal game where you use the lobby. It usually takes awhile to get the games started because everyone "noob hunts" at playoff time and will constantly backout of the team selection screen until they find a team they think they can beat. It normally takes us at least 30 mins to find a game if not longer.

if we win the 4 games or whenever we lose, it kicks us out the playoffs then it frees the team up to play games for the rest of the month that dont count towards the standings

-------
im hopping on live now and probably will be playing some Battlefield for awhile, I'll check the thread before midnight to see whats going on and will be available if I'm needed

hit me up on live if you need anything

peace

 

[Giant Robot]

Can't tonight.

I've got a game to attend. Sorry :\

[Marvie_3]

aight in less words for those that are partially illiterate...

Don't talk about Milly like that.

 

[Milly79]

Well, I did read it... incorrectly. I didn't see you in the lineup and saw Tackle couldn't play. Good luck, guys.

 

[Red_Man]

Alright sounds good I'll be on at 12 probably earlier.

 

[Marvie_3]

Here's a little motivation for you guys tonight:

[Milly79]

I've actually been playing a fair amount of D in lobbies with Antti as my partner. Having a lot of fun!

Hopefully you play D better than you play Battlefield! OH SNAP

 

[Red_Man]

Planning on getting BF3 this weekend so I won't be playing muh NHL next week or two with bf3 and midterms

 

[TheVisualizer]

Well, I did read it... incorrectly. I didn't see you in the lineup and saw Tackle couldn't play. Good luck, guys.

u can have my spot if u wanna play

 

[Milly79]

I play more D on BF3 than O.

And Viz, I'll come if someone else doesn't show, but I'm not going to take your spot.

 

[Marvie_3]

Pretty easy to play D when you just lay on the ground fly your magic flower pot around.

 

[Milly79]

You're just jealous you don't have it!

And like I said, I haven't adapted to the new style of assault in this game. It was way easy for me in BC2.
