@Mr_Hatter with the shutout in game 3 but damn if @Sharkstrongdidn’t do his damndest to steal it. Anyway, got these fucks right where we want them, let’s finish them like we finished Helsinki shall we?

So, fun fact, I wasn't actually paying attention to how many games each team had won, I just go until STHS tells me that the next round is starting. So I didn't realize yesterday that both series' had actually finished and it only didn't give me the prompt because of the farm system which we aren't currently using anyway. With that said I went ahead and finished up the Semi's for the farm so that the schedule can complete properly and I was planning to take a couple of days off anyway so that the M isn't too far ahead of the VHL. So, @Hylands and @DMaximus the index is now updated and you can send your lines in. The finals will start I'm thinking on Tuesday, build up some nice hype until then.

Finger twitches over members group tag...

Gyrfalcon shut us down big time in game 1 but we came back and took game 2 as we should. Just wanted to give them some early false confidence, don't expect any more freebies Malmo; we gave you exactly one good period in game 2, that's all you get.

Nice Bek failed to get 100 points on the season. Aggressive Bek scored 4 in game 7. I’m following what’s working.

There’s now a 75% chance a team that has never won the cup takes it this season. Additionally there’s a 50% chance a team that has never even made the finals before this season takes it. Those are cool numbers for the sake of history but as I play in Moscow... fuck your history I want my cup.

Simon likes his drama. Last season we steamrollered our way to the victory cup and you guys stomped us in 5. This season you won’t the conference and I guess Lahtinen decided enough was enough in game 7. You’ll bounce back. @Jubo07 is a fantastic GM who’s a wizard with lines and there’s a hell of a lot of talent on your squad, this just wasn’t your year.

My initial response was basically that? “With how STHS functions there is literally no way around it. Backups just go back to the last save so every game done between those saves needs to be re-done. If we could avoid it we would but unfortunately we can't.” I didn’t say the words “it sucks” but is it that different?

Literally no one said it was fair, that doesn't mean we had a choice. I get being annoyed but taking your frustration out on us doesn't make anything better. If you want to be mad at someone go be mad at Simon for coding the engine the way he did. We physically can't do re-sims any other way which is why we try to avoid them as best we can. I'm sorry you got screwed by it but what exactly would you propose we do any different because I'd love to hear how it could have been more fair. That rhetoric is woefully unnecessary and unhelpful. As is most of this "fuck the blues" mentality but whatever. We've literally been fighting that fight for 13 years now. If there was a way we would.

Even numbered season which means I was doing the VHL, excellent. Was afraid it was my fault haha

Moose was pretty tame in here tbh

Was that a simmer error or a GM error? If a GM makes a mistake in their lines that’s on them. If the simmer screws up that’s a different story.

@Jubo07 changing lines? Unheard of! Fact is the resim sucked but claiming that it wasn’t the most fair way of dealing with it is rediculous. A team shouldn’t have to deal with a 2-0 hole because of a simmer mistake, especially one that impacted 3/4 series.

It hardly counts as winning when our lines are completely fucked. If you were the better team you would have won against our proper lines. As for Devise, it sucks to see happen but mistakes happen sometimes, there’s nothing we can do about it.

4 fucking goals that’s what I’m talking about! Was not gonna let @Tape-to-Tape hold me back this time! You‘re next Malmo!

I’m an admin! What appears to be the problem?

Mexico City Queens?

Also it probably isn't but is this the first time all 4 series' have gone to 7? That definitely doesn't seem like it has happened much.

Suck it Helsinki! We're going to crush you like the insignificant specks that you are!

Was the cornerstone of my team the last two seasons haha

The manual says a lot of things that don’t seem to actually be the case.

Also 9 fucking power plays and we lose 3-2? Bullshit.

I’ve always kinda figured they’d didn’t do much for skaters but it would be interesting to see the same in depth look for goalies and see if it changes anything.

Driver doing us dirty just like last season, no way 52 shots should result in a loss. Oh well, we'll let you guys have this so that it hurts more when we crush you in the next 2.

We don’t like doing them because of the unfortunate nature of it messing with unrelated games (I’ve asked Simon for a button that pre-determines the winner while leaving a disclaimer to fix this but he ignored me) but unfortunately in circumstances like this it was a pretty severe issue for several teams so it needed to be done.
