Calgarypuck's PS3 NHL 13 Connected GM League

[jedaco]

I had to sim against Koop last advance.

All my injuries have come during simming at the end of the week, but I just figure that's the way it is, I'm not going to freak out about it.

I certainly don't have a problem with games going to sim, I understand that people have lives and can't play every one of their games.

I haven't had a problem with anybody so far, any time i've sent a message the GM will reply to set up a time, or tell me that it looks like they wont be able to play the game.

Is anybody else worried that if hockey does indeed return anytime soon that they just won't have enough time for this league? We're already seeing a bit of a drop-off (totally expected), but for season ticket holders or people who watch religiously, they might lose 2-3 nights of primetime availability each week.

My sentiments exactly!!

Nope, have the game streaming right beside.

Yes, with the time difference, my wife wanting to watch shows with me and the NHL likely starting, it's going to make things tough.

My tentative plan is to play my games before the Flames play on game nights when they are west, and after games when they are east.

I wonder what that might do to your bandwidth?

[jedaco]

Can we get an updated list of GMs?

[Joborule]

Anyone been able to get a hold of koop? If not, I'll have to remove him tomorrow.

Also if you have any friends interested in joining, let me know.

Okay, pretty sure Buffalo is just trying to have our game simmed. I have PM'd, text+'d and mentioned on here when I can play and no response. He originally had his team set to play the CPU but signed on late wednesday night or early Thursday morning and changed it so that I can't. As per the courtesy that most are giving, I did not play his CPU the first night, though I now wish that I would have. This is one of the guys who said he wants to only sim, and nobody has mentioned if he plays or not.

Minnesota, still need to play you, we tried on Tuesday, but our schedules didn't mesh, I text plus'd you last night and got no response. I am available for a couple hours this afternoon, from 1:00 - 3:00MT or later when I get home (likely after a pile of beer at the Knights game), but obviously I would prefer the afternoon if at all possible.

When I chatted with buffalo a few cycles back he welcomed me to play his CPU. Brutal deal zukes.

Hey Zukes, I know it's a lame, cliche excuse but I've been busy as of late because of the start of a new job. I haven't been able to play much NHL 13 and all I've had time for are some trade talks and such. Not avoiding playing you, but I disabled my CPU because some of us are still experiencing problems with the CPU making changes to our rosters without us knowing. I'd prefer that not to happen at cost of having to sim games. If you want to let me know when you're free to play I can enable my CPU for you to play. I'm pretty busy this weekend, but maybe we can arrange a good time.

Very generous of you since the advance is this morning.

If you are able to get on in the next hour we could play, but seeing the time that you posted this, I doubt that will happen.

[Russic]

Can we confirm enabling CPU messes with your team when your roster # and cap are in order?

If your team is not in order cap/roster space wise, I don't think siming is going to make a difference in how they react, because the CPU will still tweak with your lineup for each individual game. I believe the only way you're gonna avoid having CPU do something unintentional is play the game until your problem is fixed.

Unless it can be proven otherwise, it's not fair to Zukes that you're preventing him from playing your team under any circumstance.

[secol]

getting close to trade deadline, anybody know when exactly it will be?

[IgiTang]

Oh snap. Trade deadline...
