Let's try the rotation system again. If we still struggle to score goals then we can go all out aggressive for the three of us. Hopefully when I tweak our attributes, we'll see a performance boost.

I'll set our two defencemen to balanced.

I'm going to tweak three players' attributes as our team lost last game.

Here are the original attributes:

LW: Archibalduk 6 6 18 10
C : Loosie 7 4 13 16
RW: Bruins72 7 7 12 14


Here's what I want to change them to:

LW: Archibalduk 5 5 19 11
C : Loosie 4 4 13 19
RW: Bruins72 5 6 14 15

Round 6
......... HAR v WIN .........
......... MTL v QBC .........
......... MIN v CHI .........

Please post your mentalities for the first round of games. If a player has not posted their mentality by Friday 16 May 8am UK Time (9am CET / 3am EST / 12am PST) then their team captain can post the mentality on their behalf. If a player hasn't had a mentality set by the time I play the games, they will be set to 'balanced'.

The games should take place some time this weekend - probably Sunday.

Up-to-date rosters are available in the General Discussion Thread.


TWO NOTES FOR TEAM CAPTAINS:
* If a team loses a game, the Team Captain is allowed to alter the attributes of up to three players on his team (including himself). For each of the three players, he can move up to two attribute points from one or two skills to one or two other skills. Attributes cannot be moved between players. Teams may want to discuss how they move attributes, but the Team Captain has the final say. If you wish to make any changes then PLEASE POST THEM IN THIS THREAD. If you want to discuss potential changes with your teammates, use the General Discussion thread.

* If any of your teammates did not post a mentality for the previous game, the Team Captain may set their mentality this time around (you don't have to wait until the Thursday deadline to post for these players).

It came down to the fact that captains sets all the mentalities. In fact I think it's better. I hope we win against MTL.

Hmm I think I'll leave the mentalities for Quebec the same for the next round. There's no point in changing our defence from Conservative because they have absolutely no passing or shooting skills - they're the only players in the league not to have scored a point. :dunno:
