TBL Points System Upgrade (Now Completed)

As part of my continuing work to upgrade and improve the site, I shall be making some improvements to the TBL Points System. This shall make the System easier to run for the Admin Team and should make the System a little fairer. Rather than the Admins having to award points for a user’s 100th post, this shall be done automatically. This will remove a great burden on the Admin team and will ensure that nobody slips through the net. As a result, the everyone’s points will have to be reset. Don’t worry; you won’t be losing all of your...

TBL Prediction League (2nd Half)

This is an opportunity for those that didn’t take part in the first half (i.e. Game 1) to join in.

Minty’s Resolutions For The NHL in 2007

I invite everyone to check out and chime in with responses and their own resolutions for the Hockey World in the thread I posted in the Hockey Talk Forum: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi … php?t=2056 Happy New Year everyone!

New server

Here it is, the new The Blue Line webserver! It will allow us to provide you with even more EHM files from now on. It was one hell of an adventure for me, from buying the server to making the move. You have to know TBL grew a lot since we started in 2004, especially the database was difficult to move (we didn’t delete a single post since we started in 2004). Probaly some files are still missing but we’ll move then as soon as possible.

Section 2 of the Guide is now available on the site: Click Here! This section discusses one way of approaching choosing your lines as well as the important attributes to keep in mind when doing so. Hopefully it will be of use for users both old and new. Progress on the Guide has been slow as of late because I’m working longer hours at my shop in the run up to Christmas. Don’t worry, however, we’re still working on the Guide and we promise it will all be completed in the relatively near future! If you have any comments/questions/suggestions about the...

Two Fun Web Based Games

For those of you who don’t know the members of TBL have a few online web-based games we’re playing. They aren’t run by us or even hockey related actually but I figured it would be good to have a news thread to make announcements about them anyways as they’ve proved to be popular and fun. One is a car racing simulator and the other, Popomundo, is a “become a rockstar” roleplaying type game. where you create your musician and work to become famous. Popomundo! is a game where your character joins a band looking to become a rock star! TBL currently...
