Who rated him as the number one goalie?Saapas wrote:Not sure if bug or what it is but season 29-30 Preds think it's a good call to put their #1 goalie to the Waivers
Saros has a -15 PA so he could be a goalie with a 190 CA (which would result in a top ranking)Saapas wrote:E: Also Saros is ranked to be the best goalie in the NHL for that season
That's odd.....I hope you reported it on the SI Bugs Forum and uploaded your game http://community.sigames.com/forumdispl ... Bugs-ForumGaindeh wrote:Had an exhibition game during playoffs against Devils, after winning Flames straight in 4-games.
If the #1 ranked goalie in the NHL was put on waivers for no apparent reason, I hope you posted on the SI Forums/uploaded your saveSaapas wrote:1. He was rated #1 in the rankings by positions that come just before the season begins.
Out of curiosity, how did you get to year 50? Do you quick sim everything? I prefer to play out each day and be involved in the daily activities (waivers, trades, news reports, practice, etc.) but I find that it takes a long time to get through a season. Even simming a season takes around 15 minutes for me.VanFan wrote:Anyone have issues with no background games being played? I am like in year 50 and none of the juniors or AHL games are being played
I started a test with the 1998 DB yesterday (using EHM 1.2), currently in 2006, and all the background games are playing for me...VanFan wrote:Anyone have issues with no background games being played? I am like in year 50 and none of the juniors or AHL games are being played
Wow! 15 minutes....RomaGoth wrote:Even simming a season takes around 15 minutes for me.
Wow, 5 hours??? And here I thought 15 minutes was a long time. Clearly my sim times are doing fine.nino33 wrote:I started a test with the 1998 DB yesterday (using EHM 1.2), currently in 2006, and all the background games are playing for me...VanFan wrote:Anyone have issues with no background games being played?

I always have all Leagues on Enhanced, a Full Database and Maximum Detail.....my current test with the 1998 DB (with fewer playable leagues!) is taking about 5 hours to sim a year
I haven't started a new game in some time. I have close to 300 hrs put into my current game. I know some people get bored and need to start a new game after a certain amount of years but I'm not like that. I enjoy trying to manage the cap and drafting/developing my players. I haven't had a need to start a new game in a long time which has brought me into 50years or so play. maybe that's the issue but I doubt it.RomaGoth wrote:Out of curiosity, how did you get to year 50?

What's your secret?
6h per season. I guess that's what it takes me to handle one off-season, excluding the draft^^VanFan wrote:I haven't started a new game in some time. I have close to 300 hrs put into my current game.

OK, how the HECK do you sim a complete season in 5 hours? OR 15 MINUTES???RomaGoth wrote:Wow, 5 hours??? And here I thought 15 minutes was a long time.

I must be some sort of uber-noob when it comes to this.
What settings do you use? Are you playing this game on a quantum CRAY supercomputer?? Obviously, I have some settings wrong, because in 15 minutes, I can simulate, at best, two weeks. And that's leaving EVERYTHING alone and not interfering with the sim one bit.
I have a quad-core 2.66GHz CPU and 8Gb of RAM, so it can't be my machine, can it?
I use an old computer that was pieced together by someone I know, nothing special at all (the opposite!)Statsman1 wrote:OK, how the HECK do you sim a complete season in 5 hours?

OK, so with all that, how long does it take you to play a season as an active GM? Because with settings like that, it will take me about 6 weeks, if I spend 2h per day playing the game.nino33 wrote:I use an old computer that was pieced together by someone I know, nothing special at all (the opposite!)Statsman1 wrote:OK, how the HECK do you sim a complete season in 5 hours?

I always have every available League on Enhanced
I always have a Full Database
I always use Maximum Detail for all games (I never Quick Sim, you get less realistic results)
My old laptops a bit slower than my computer, my wife's (better) computer is much faster than mine (so quicker sims)
HaHa that's funny! "play" EHMStatsman1 wrote:OK, so with all that, how long does it take you to play a season as an active GM?
Wow...2 hours x 42 days = 84 hours for a season! Are you watching your games?Statsman1 wrote:OK, so with all that, how long does it take you to play a season as an active GM? Because with settings like that, it will take me about 6 weeks, if I spend 2h per day playing the game.
OK, perhaps "play" was the wrong choice of words. That's not really what I meant, as I know you're more heavily involved in doing the work so WE can play the game. Sorry about that.nino33 wrote:HaHa that's funny! "play" EHM
I spend almost all my time editing/testing, 100-200 hours a month.....I played a single online season earlier this spring, and initially I spent a few hours at first getting to know my team, setting practice/tactics, etc & then my daily "checking in" typically took 2-5 minutes
Wow...2 hours x 42 days = 84 hours for a season! Are you watching your games?
If you're not watching your games, that's a lot of time for a season.....I suspect I could get though 5-10 seasons in 82 hours
Absolutely no need to be sorry! I was just trying to be a little funny in my responseStatsman1 wrote:OK, perhaps "play" was the wrong choice of words. That's not really what I meant, as I know you're more heavily involved in doing the work so WE can play the game. Sorry about that.
I don't think it's the number of leagues (as I always have all leagues Enhanced...and I never Quick Sim anything)Statsman1 wrote:No, I do not watch my games, I let the coach do the coaching and just sim the game through. What I find that takes the MOST time of anything that happens is the end-of-day activities - after all the games from that night are played, I click "CONTINUE" and it's a solid 30-60 seconds before the next day is ready to go.
Could that be the result of too many active leagues? Because I only have the CHL as a "selected" league, and those games are quick-simmed.
If you're simming 2 weeks in 15 minutes, or half an hour a month, that means you'd be simming a season in about 6 hoursStatsman1 wrote:in 15 minutes, I can simulate, at best, two weeks. And that's leaving EVERYTHING alone and not interfering with the sim one bit.

Yes, if I don't interfere at all, I just let the game go with no input from me at all. Which isn't exactly the hands-on GM experience I'm looking for.nino33 wrote: If you're simming 2 weeks in 15 minutes, or half an hour a month, that means you'd be simming a season in about 6 hours
By what you've said, one season simming takes 6 hours, one season "hands on" takes 84 hours.....that's a lot of hands onStatsman1 wrote:Yes, if I don't interfere at all, I just let the game go with no input from me at all.

I am just going to have to tweak a few things and see where I can speed it up, if anywhere.
