2013 Thread 2014 Thread Didn't I say I wasn't doing this again? Anyway, here is a mostly copy/pasted summary of what I'm getting myself into this year. I want to take goons through their hockey career using NHL 15. I am going to create you in NHL 15, and track your progress until you retire, NHL 16 comes out, or I get bored with this. Last year, I started early in March, had to start over twice, and eventually finished in late July. As far as player creation goes, I will randomly assign them Overall ratings and potential grades. Once I get a list of players, I will place you all on a CHL team and you'll get entered into the 2015 entry draft or the 2016 entry draft. Some may have to be in the CHL and AHL for a short time, and there may be somebody I randomly select that has high enough stats to get into the NHL immediately. I ran some test BAPs with different potentials and Overall ratings that helped me know what should work and so I won't have to start over again. Last year, I bumped everyone up way too high and had like 40 superstars. This time, it is going to be more spread out. There will be some superstars, some role players, and some career AHLers. I will focus player creation on the player type you choose (SNP get high shooting accuracy, PLY get high passing, etc). Also, this year I am asking for a character trait or 1 attribute you want to customize to add into your character. For example, in the past, Pleads has been a PIM machine (so, I would set his discipline low), or you want to be the next Iafrate/McInnis/Chara (so you would get 99 Slap Shot Power), or you are a multi-concussed goon who only knows how to check (so, you would get a high Checking rating). You don't have to use one of these three, so be creative if you would like. Unfortunately, EA Sports has removed the ability to upload replays and pictures from the game, so I will not be doing draft pictures and whatnot again. Last year I did updates on December 1st, The All-Star Break, the Trade Deadline, and then playoffs. I did it that way, hoping there would be some storylines that wrote themselves with those, but it just ended up being extra updates without the story payoffs. So, I am going to do two stat updates a season, at the All-Star Break and at the end of the Regular Season. I will still check transactions on December 1st and at the Trading Deadline, and post any notable transactions. I will also be bringing back a Google Spreadsheet with everyone's stats. Last year, I had 50 registrants, and that caused me to spend literally hundreds of hours on these updates, which I cannot do this year. So, this year I am going to cut it off at 40, and this time I mean it. From what I can tell, I can only do 2 draft classes. So the first 20 get Class of '15, last 20 get class of '16. However, I would like to give people who have not participated before first dibs on registration. If you've been in the first two, please don't post characters yet, instead, help add to the atmosphere. Twitter posts are always an easy way to contribute as fans/writers/etc. Also, keep up with this thread, it's disappointing and unfair to other posters for people to post characters and then never post again.

I should probably point out: We don't actually use Twitter. Just roleplaying in the thread, see JawKnee's post. Although, I applaud the effort of people making real twitter accounts. Also, be sure to put this thread in your bookmarks so it doesn't get lost when the thread moves to The Armchair Quarterback. @BAPcommish 2s Also, 2 spots in the 2016 class are reserved until they are able to post in the thread.

Unless you create them from the same email account (or have them cross-follow each other, I guess?), there's really no way to tell. I made a second for something kinda like this and there was no evidence it was me aside from me saying so.

The Steamer prefers to lay a huge hit when the opportunity arises which for him seems to be every shift. He's best described as a Milan Lucic/Scott Hartnell hybrid.
