Just another update:

We're replacing the Phoenix Coyotes.

I only have five more players to add now. After that we'll be ready to rumble! Before we run the game for real, I'm gonna test it by running a vacation season.

In the first Team TBL we had trouble with everyone being rookies so this time I've made people older or older than they are. Below is a list of how I've done this:

Year of birth between 1990-2005 are set to 1985 in the game.
1987 - 1989 => 1983
1984 - 1986 => 1981
1981 - 1983 => 1979
1900 - 1980 => 1977

Also, those with higher post counts in the Forum have a higher ability in the game. However, it doesn't mean that someone with twice as many posts has twice as much ability. Basically, the player with the most posts has the ability of the best player of Phoenix, the second highest posts has the second highest ability, etc. The reason I've done this is so that those who contribute most to the Forums are those who receive the most icetime.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. The difference between those with the highest ability and those with the lowest ability is merely about 40. And anyway, you have 16 posts more than many of the other users ;)

I'm really sorry but we closed signing-up for this over a week ago. I've finished adding all of the players, I'm afraid. :cry:
