Does anyone on Calgarypuck play PowerPlay Manager?

[Hades]

Ya I got a 1 star TV offer, so declined. I also took out a 10 mil loan...arena capacity up to 2000 and all facilities upgrading!

Was also thinking of doing this once I hit 101 XP. 14 weeks @ 20% doesn't seem too bad.

Season 6 starts "today", good luck everyone!

[Hades]

I start at home, but my arena isn't finished yet...ah well. Here's hoping not to get relegated by the end of the year!

Good luck everyone! I'm releasing a little season preview press release later today so take a look at that, and don't forget to vote for the manager of Team Canada!

Well before the server crashed, I saw that I had lost 5-1. Not a huge surprise I guess but not the way I had wanted to start the season! I'm considering putting together another training camp, is this a good idea?

Edit: looking at the teams in the league, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get smacked around quite a bit. I don't really want to buy a ton of players, so I think i'll just use my money to invest in better facilities for the year, hope to recruit some good players and hope to not get relegated!

I think it's a really good idea to put a training camp up right now. Play on low, let the other teams use up their energy and then win some in the second half of the season. It's gonna be a rough first half for you, and for me again it looks like (I lost 7-0 today, but the guy played on high and I played on low, I expect to beat him come the second half).

Also made a new third jersey for my home opener on Wednesday, check it out, what do you guys think?



EDIT: It looks better on powerplaymanager because they add some ruffles and stuff to it, but that's what I submitted.

The new threads look good

Well with the servers down im not sure the result of my first game. I am currently running a 7 day training camp so most of my young players are gone for another 4 days. Considering the division I am in I am sure I took quite the whoopin today. Oh well so long as I can avoid relegation I will be happy.

Best of luck to all in Season 6

[Deviaant]

yup sure was a whoopin. 8-0 and I only had 6 shots all dang game, not a single shot in the first, 2 in the second and 4 in the third. Oh man oh man this may be a loooong season lol

Lost 5-2 to a team rated 30 points higher, so I'm not too disappointed. Looks like there's going to be some competition this season (Not just against the Flamez ). Took out a loan, bought some upgrades, and now just waiting for my camp from season 5 to finish so I can start up another one.

Hey Chalms you lost the least yesterday...that's a good sign!
We'll finish ahead of the noname teams, so it'll just be a matter of beating a few others to avoid auto-relegation
I see that you're not upgrading your regeneration facility much, from what I've heard you want it almost equal (or -1) of your training, unless you want to train up players that don't play many games. For me, my starters are my future too, so I'm gonna try to keep them equal. Maybe J can confirm this though..

I thought it was just affected their energy level for games, but then I read the description. fffuuuuu

Guess I'll bump it up on payday. Thanks!

Ya it should be the 4th most important one you work on, higher it is the higher your players that play will train.

[chalms04]

Lost 1-0 in OT, yay for the loser point!

[Hades]

Beat a no-name 12-0, should help out the goal differential at the very least!

[chalms04]

Finally popped my season 6 cherry with an OT win!

Same! Won 4-2, finally got some offense out of my team, think getting my number 1 defenseman back helped a lot.

[Hades]

Well, I thought I'd won 5-2, but I guess there were technical errors and the game got replayed, where I lost 3-1...

I have a guy Stephen Dicks on the market right now, is going to be sold in 2 hours. Is only at 100,000, could be a good pick-up for some of you. Here's his page:

Got lit up again, damn, I could have used some Dicks.
