Dropped to a C+ overall. FUCK, the legend card is never going to happen.

trying to gauge interest, would anyone be interested in a GAF 1v1 league?

been playing online VS mode the past few days and have really been enjoying the game post-patch, and just noticed the game has a pretty decent setup for Online Leagues
We've tried to get one set up the last couple years but it fizzles out in a hurry. People play 2 games and dont bother with it anymore. If they actually had fantasy drafts, better trades, and more franchise options it'd be a lot more fun.

Ouch! :lol You couldn't be any worse than the guy who was playing goalie in a drop-in game I played last night. He allowed like 5 or 6 goals on 10 or 11 shots.
That sounds like me. :lol

For some reason goalie feels a lot different this year. Last year I was pretty decent (88%sv and ~2.00 GAA with a few shutouts). I just can't seem to figure it out this year for whatever reason.

Hey Marvie, can you remove my gamertag from the OP?
Any particular reason why? Are you quitting the team?

yeah, hopefully they are working on overhauling BeAGM and bringing it online for NHL12, an online franchise for hockey would be crazy

looks like I scared another one of your vets away...

I'll pass too on the 1vs1. I hate playing Versus mode for some reason.

Marive, I think the hard part of playing goalie is trying not to play 'ahead' of the game. Like for instance its really hard for me to see a 2 on 0 developing and instead of playing the puck carrier I assume the pass but end up giving up too much space in net. Its also hard to see the puck in front of you and for me I always slide out of position when Im trying to ready myself for a one timer or something. Hey I just noticed something too, I'm not in the OP roster ;_;

Online franchise would be fuckin rad. They should have put that in before they bothered with the shitty HUT mode.

What did you do now?

Yeah, I tend to react too quick which gets me out of position. It doesn't help that guys can get off ridiculously accurate shots in a split second. Leaves you with no time to recover.

You never officially picked a jersey number, which is why I believe you're not in the roster. :lol

i don't know, I think I was the last one to play a game with Zaraki, and now he wants his name removed from the OP?

I should change my name to Banhammer Killer or Slamjaw Killer...
Way to go, man. You are the Banhammer Killer.

ph33nix and I are the only Slamjaws left..... :(

I think I need to change my name back to Crash Slamjaw.......



Zaraki, I removed your tag like you asked.

So I came up with a perfect comparison(not quality wise, merely personnel wise) for this year's and last year's team.

Last year:

This year:

ph33nix and I are like Screech and Mr. Belding

What do you mean picking a jersey number? Just talking about the OP? Bumpkin has my number 36, so I can't pick that :(


BTW went to the Thrashers games in which we lost to the Pens. 0-2 in going to see NHL games. Needless to say, it wasn't a fun 4 hour drive back ;_;

bumpkin wears #10 despite what the OP says, I remember pointing out he and DokterrHouse had the same number on in one game, #36 is available

I dunno, the whole online section will be opened up in the next day according to the sticky and I'm afraid random guests will fuck with people's gamertags. Apparently the email trick might work to hide everyone's info and the OP so I'll let you know what turns up with that.

Edit: Apparently Email trick is confirmed to work if everyone is worried about info not being safe.

I had changed it back to 10 for some drop-in games and forgot to change it back. I don't think I've played a game when House was on the ice too in a while, anyways. :lol

Of course I also never seem to be able to hop on when any of you are on. :( I got online last last night (like 12:30-ish), and just played some drop-in games.

yeah House hasn't played in awhile, don't worry about the number you can keep it.

Yeah, you can have #10 until House shows up again.

I'm not hiding the OP, dude. If you quote it, you can't see any of the images and it just looks like a huge jumbled mess.

1. Pick low difficulty on BaP career.
2. Depending on which boost slots you want to unlock, choose position carefully
3. ???
4. Profit!

You can get easy +/- and goals with BaP. I played defense in NHL 10 BaP and amassed a 150 +/- and had like 30 goals and 80 assists in one season :lol. It's ridiculously easy on the lowest difficulty settings.

Lol yeah. But the hard part isn't scoring goals, getting PIMs, blocking shots, etc. Its actually playing through them (at least for me). I don't know about anyone else but BaP grinding is SOOOOO BORINGGG

Yeah, it's awful. I played through a full season, found the boosts didn't unlock properly, and had to do it again. I hate EA. :lol

I won't be home from class until ~11pm EST. I'll be on sometime after that.
What kind of person signs up for a class that doesn't get out until 11pm?!! I can't imagine having night classes, I'm done with classes by 2pm or 3pm.

Also, just took adderall xr that a friend gave me to catch up in my web page class (learning javascript), and I literally opened the java book at 12pm and didn't close it, move from desk, or divert my eyes from the computer/book until about 6pm :lol

Anyways I'm about to hop on for a little bit if anyone else wants to play just shoot me a PM.

That still sucks man. Did you willingly sign up for that time or was that the only time slot available.
