CP's NHL 13 Connected GM Interest Thread

[3 Justin 3]

My two friends (one is on this site) want in on the 360 league.

Looks like all we have to do is pick which team we want since we will be randomizing rosters (still hate the fact there is no fantasy draft, but now with 30 people it would be super hard).

Also, I want Av's or Philly.

[Glorious #1]

Count me in for the PS3 league.

PSN: SparkOfMadness

Id prefer to play as the Preds. ( Well Flames would of coarse be my first choice but....duh)

[expo2428]

I would like to be on the ps3 league if I could.

We've surpassed the limit for GMs for the PS3 league. You'll have to talk to Jobo or maybe you can play on a team as a coach/player.

Or we may split into two league and divide up the users if commitment count closer to release is above limit.

Not sure, but can we make the leagues so that there is only 15-20 teams? Because that way, by the looks of things, there may only be 40 people for the xbox league so when I set up the league on the 11th and if we're splitting them, would we have 30 in one league, and then 10 in another with 20 AI controlled teams, or could you just have 20 teams in 2 leagues?

I'm almost certain that you have to have 30 teams per league.

Think it would be preferred to make it a even split so competition is relatively the same, and don't risk inactivity in a league because there's not enough human interaction.

Not all teams have to be user controlled.

Not all teams have to be user controlled.

Yeah, that's probably the best way to go. Inactivity isn't good.

And as a commish, we have to validate all activity team-to-team wise. Would we just do this randomly, as we see fit, or would there be specific days where the trades and such would be accepted? I mean, I can do it every day, easily.

Oh, and on the iOS app, does the commish have every option that we'd have on the xbox, like validation of trades, and other things.. Because, if it's available on the iPod, I plan to buy one, so I can manage my team on the go, while I'm away (which isn't often, but still, Id like to be committed 24/7).

I believe everyone using the iOS app is limited to what has been listed on the site:

Created specifically for GM Connected is the GM Connected Mobile App which will allow gamers to take the league with them when they leave their consoles. The app will allow them to:

· View: Team Standings, Player Stats, Schedule, Injury Report, Transactions

· Trade: Offer trades to other teams,

· Free Agents: Make offers to free agents

· Post: GMs can send messages to the Commissioner, other GMs or his team

Could be wrong, but GM's don't have any extra privileges in the iOS app. Perhaps this will change in a future update though. It would be great to eventually be able to change your line-up and strategies from your iPhone or iPod.

iPod? Unless you're buying an iPhone an iPod won't be sufficient as iPods don't have 3G, just WiFi (the touches anyway).

I want to play, PS3 league.

[cznTiburon]

I am down. 360

Meh. I'm an android guy, and dont intend to lay down 500 bucks to use this app. 200, sure, especially because I already need an ipod.

I'd like to apologize in advance for having a similar PS3 tag as Redmile34. We used to be roommates, he had a 360 with the tag Redmile and I stole it when I bought myself a PS3. Like a fool I expected his 360 to not implode and RROD on him, forcing him to the Sony side.

Even if we do random rosters I'd like to see a random draw and draft a team. It might get too complicated if we have people throwing in their preferences for which team they want.

Agreed. It would be great if people stopped posting teams that they'd like to play as. If we are doing totally random rosters, then it really shouldn't matter what team you play as. All this does is complicate things further.

Plus doing a team draft would take time and efficient coordination.

Well if they don't show the AI would do it.. though A fantasy draft would be cool

Not a fantasy draft. Team selection draft.

Same thing, no? I mean the same, if that's the case.
