The Simtropolis Hockey League

[Mr. Cortez 11]

Those sigs look good, espically with one with the shadows around the logo.

I know I said that I would like to keep the one I have now, but can you make one of those for me and PM a copy. I might use them in the future.

I am loving the sig. It is nice. One question, though: are rollovers or flash allowed. I want both of them in the sig.

[mentarman 14]

I think we've sorted out our 30th team after a flurry of PMs about the last spot. I believe it will be Shadow Assassin's Dynasty Sabre-Tooth Tigers (I just need confirmation from him).

 

<Edited out a bunch of uniform mumbo-jumbo that's been worked out. For final uniforms, look further down on the page.>

[Easy Bakes 253]

ill take d5. about the only one that has red and gold thats not used.

B 7 please blue and white.

My areana is known as The Ryushuka Mertoclomplex Arena.

[mentarman 14]

Thanks for the replies, folks. I'll get those changes made.

[Mr. Cortez 11]

I would like C1, please.

[mentarman 14]

^^^ Done, that means no one is using E1.

[Shadow Assassin 336]

Yup, I'm happy with the colours. I just noticed something - the colours on the uniform actually match Dynasty's colours: blue, yellow and white.

News on the Arena: Blackdelve Fields Arena is currently under construction. It is set to become the only open-air hockey arena, and the season will take place during the Dynasty summer, which has mild temperatures in the high 20's. Winter is not much different. The arena is kept cool by an efficient circulation system, but the roof can be closed if necessary.

Currently, the team has made its home in the Stretchnflick Stadium [a.k.a the Rubber Band Stadium] in Aranda, Dynasty.

Time to meet the competition!

 

 

 

 

(PM me ASAP if something is wrong.)

 

 

[Cjah 15]

Wow this looks perfect!

Thank you for putting so much work into this!

[Mr. Cortez 11]

Oh my gosh, they look soooo cool!

I-am-speechless....

that's right....i don't have anything to say.

not one word

nothing.


Good work.

[mentarman 14]

 

[Shadow Assassin 336]

Wonderful.

So when will we find out what number we have in the uh... draft, who we're going against, and such?

[mentarman 14]

Giving the people who haven't selected uniforms a little time to get the PM I sent them and do so. Sometime tomorrow I will assign them uniforms if I haven't heard back.

 

I'm working on the schedule right now. I'll have it ready tomorrow. It's basically done, but I'm going to make individual schedules for each team, and that will take some time. The schedule is going to be such that you play each other team once.

 

I'll probably draft tomorrow night and post your teams. Don't worry about your draft number because I'm just having the computer give each team a random place in the order, and then the computer will run the draft and select teams. All you'll see is the end result, your teams. Though that's one of a whole bunch of things that I can't copy and paste from the game, so I will have to re-type the entire lineup for each team, so that will take some time.

[Shadow Assassin 336]

Ah, excellent.

[+Guest]

This is all fantastic, I'm loving it already, so much detail, hmmm I may have to create a website for my team, seeing as I've nothing else to do.

This is part of the site i created for the old STHL - http://www.macsurfing.co.uk/sthl/

 

I'll design something brand spankin' new

[Mrkeacher88 0]

I'm extrememly impressed by the amount of work you put into this!

[Traffic_Jam 0]

Yay!

 

Spectacular job!

[Easy Bakes 253]

Very nice. You did a good job on this.

[dhoppeii 12]

Man, I go away for a week and in that time a fully functional Hockey league is created and developed.........and I missed out.  Well, I will be following along and perhaps can be apart of the next season.  Wonderful work, BTW, on the entire setup.

[mentarman 14]

^^^ Thanks, guys.

Yeah, dhoppeii, it kind of got going faster than I thought and filled up quick. I'm sorry you didn't get a spot, but perhaps next season!

EDIT 2: Looks like I wasted my time on this one, Padraig already has a cool signature picture incorporating his logo! check out one of his posts. It does show how you can have a flashing sig pic, so you could have the one I make and any current pic you have alternate, if he'll tell us how he did that. Maybe it's an animated gif....?

Hey yes it is an animated gif which was created using imageready and layers for animation really easy to do.
For some reason i cant login on Padraig account anyway untill i get that sorted out ill be using this account.

[mentarman 14]

^^^^ Yeah, was just figuring out how to do that when you posted. Thanks for the info.
Of course, I don't believe it's you without some trash talk!

[AJHAINC 0]

Ok! Lets get this uniform issue taken care of....I'm chomping at the bit to get this going...mostly because I'll be gone Friday Saturday and Sunday (I'll be on a train going to NYC) I won't have much of an interent connection until I get to NYC so I may be slow in getting some stuff done...If you guys want to trade players et al, just PM me or something...

[mentarman 14]

Patience, young Skywalker. Er, I mean, ANHAINC. I'll just select uniforms for folks by the end of the day and do the draft. Hopefully I'll have teams posted by tomorrow morning or later tomorrow (but no promises because I know that's going to be a lot of work for me.)
macsurfing, you and your web sites! I see you are changing your personal site _again_. lol. I actually have a soccer Web site I've worked on for next season but it's not great. I started getting distracted by this project.

Anyone else who wants a signature pic featuring their team, let me know.

[Mr. Cortez 11]

I am in the SW division of the Western Conference. Wow!

I would like to thank you for all the work you are doing so far with this.

Maybe, when you get a chance, you can make this forum a sticky, since the SHL will be an ongoing process forever...

Just a thought, I don't think dirk would mind.

[mentarman 14]

^^^Thanks.  And I like what you've done with your sig.

I think a mod has to do that? It's up to them I guess. Though one of our GMs is a mod....

 

Here are the final uniforms:

 

[+Guest]

mentarman i hope when FRI (my team) play CRI someone changes uniforms or we'll be confused!! ... now theres a punch up, oh no its two FRI players... d'oh!

Could i please have a signature image, cheers

[mentarman 14]

^^^ Not to mention the Rude Bruins, who *also* have the same uniform. Ah well, I decided it's not that big a deal if there's doubles (or even a couple triples ) if it gets people the uniforms they want. The teams that have actual NHL logos and uniforms, like the Rude Bruins, for example, have alternate uniforms they can use. The rest are SOL.

I am loving the sig. It is nice. One question, though: are rollovers or flash allowed. I want both of them in the sig.

I have read through the Rules and regulations for the forums and have not found anything that would suggest that they are not allowed. I would think as long as we keep the animation asthetically pleasing that it would be ok. Also the animations are mostly gifs, i dont think embedding a swf would be a good idea.
Mentarman I like the banner sig you made for me. When i get some free time i will add that into my current banner sig. Thank you.
