Perhaps of EASHL games tonight the pro players should do some OTP games with the casual players if there is enough around.
If you're going to promote the active members, thats fine. But if you promote Wood, KG and Stalker, well those 3, along with myself, are pretty much the whole casual team. Sure we have a few guys that jump in every now and then, but we're the primary players. If we/they go, the rest of the team might as well be buried

Well what would you guys prefer? Stick to casual for all year and don't play with pro team? I would believe the general consensuses of the primary players on the casual team is to play with the pro team. So if more of the users don't get more active well I'm not going to withhold those players from not playing on the pro team if the GMs believe he's a good enough player.

Thats all I'm saying. We all want to play pro, but there are so few of us guys playing regularly, that if you start picking us off one at a time, the rest will suffer

Well if all you guys make it on to the team, it seems those that will be effected is those that don't play with the team much anyway.

I think it's going to be an inevitable issue. It's going to happen eventually unless you guys choose to stick to casual team if others don't play more frequently.

I'd prefer to stay casual for now anyways, I still have alot of things to work on and I just want to practice and have fun. I don't think I'm anywhere near good enough to play pro yet. I'm with spike, I would rather have stalker and KG stay casual because the four of us are the core of the team, but I don't want to hold them back.

I honestly don't know how the frig to get into a game with that thing. I've been into the online team thing, but do I just have to wait around if there's a game on the go? Do I have to get invited to a game or what's the dealio?

The first online menu is the EASHL. You enter it, then you head into the game room where it'll take you to the home room of the locker room. You need at least 2 players in a game to do one. When you have the required players and ready to go, you can enter one of the 5 available open rooms to play a game. You cannot join a certain room with users in it if there is a game in progress already for the members in the room.

Once your in a game room, the captain is in control of starting a play now search which will select a club at random for you to play against.

I would suggest messaging us to ask when we're done. Then we can message you back and you can get in at the right time. Otherwise, yes, you will be just waiting there. It's the most efficient way...

To be honest, I would. But I prefer the Off D build wayyyy better. And changing takes soooo long. I try to avoid as much as I can.

I won't be on right away, so go without me.
