Sorry Dan is correct Jason NFL over Basketball

And now a picture of the league edit screen!

Surely that Toronto one is just a little jab for fun.

But again it looks good and I am sure modders and database creators are just clamoring to work on it.

It's actually a good question. Can Toronto win the Championship? Of anything?

But again it looks good and I am sure modders and database creators are just clamoring to work on it.

I'm already starting work on a 8-league US junior hockey system similar to the CHL. Should be fun.

Sure, Toronto Rock.

I will relegate the worst teams from the east and west conference to the KHL

[Ruki]

Thinking of, after getting used to the game, having an alternate world NHL.

Scrap the draft, have it so you buy players when they're somewhere between 14 and 18, and then the 4 worst teams get relegated to the AHL or some other league.

[Sweet Holy Moses]

At least the Leafs could then win the Calder Cup, right? That's something.

[JasonM]

The idea of some alternate league sounds very fun indeed.

In essence you could make an entire structure going from the UHL < ECHL < AHL < NHL and have the bottom and top teams relegate and promote into each league.

The only problem would be how to fix youth players coming from Canada/Europe into the American leagues and the whole salary thing because any team dropping to the AHL will have huge salary cap issues.

I call dibs on re-establishing the Bossier-Shreveport Mudbugs in the Central Hockey League, then taking them to Stanley Cup glory!

[Ruki]

Also? We should have an EWB online league.

"Yeah, we'll probably do a Mac version or something"

Fuuuuuuuuu--

edit: Actually, I can't tell if that just means a Mac version of beta or of the game altogether. Eager to try this out.

[Ruki]

Pretty sure it is coming out on Mac at some point.

[Cactus Drags]

I realise it's a beta, but it sounds like too unplayable of a mess for me to consider at the moment. I'll pick it up eventually though, and when I do I will IMMEDIATELY SIGN RYAN FUCKING O'REILLY JESUS CHRIST COLORADO WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU

I'll probably do a game with one of my local UK Elite League teams too.

So, it's gonna be released at some point today. If it comes with two beta-codes, who wants to go 50-50 with me?
