NHL 13 (XBOX 360) GWJHL Season - Week 6

Two more games against the CPU tonight and two more victories. That's five in a row for the Islanders (who still have a losing record, mind you).

My sole human v. human game this week is against Mr. PsychoKillerZ's Sharks. I'll try to hop on tomorrow evening after 9pm Eastern, but after that I'm traveling through the weekend and into the early part of next week.

You don't install the game first? Afterwards, it only needs the disc for start-up, then the disc is irrelevant.

Tampa beats the Hurricanes 1-0. I finally did an AI profile and was able to get my team playing the way I wanted and finally put together some good line combos.

Nope, I don't. I've never seen any game improvement, and it never even crosses my mind to install a game.

That being said, I've had installed games get the ring around the disc too.

I install everything. Saves the disc and the drive

Yeah, I guess my bad for not installing it? Oh well, lesson learned.

Anyway, I (possibly) will have my HUM v HUM games wrapped up after tonight, depending on if I run into PsychoKiller or not.

Anybody playing HUT having trouble buying out cards?

For some reason, when I go to buy the card outright, it kicks me out and says I'm not connected to the EA servers. Same thing on my iOS.

For B Dog, CptDomano and whoever else I may be playing, I should be online at around 6pm PST this evening for a bit and I will log in now and again to see if anyone is up to play.

Detroit is ready to roll.

Played the rest of my CPU games tonight. Fortunes turned as I was able to defeat Colorado and Florida, but then I ran into the AI juggernaut that is Ottowa. Good grief. I think I had maybe a dozen great shots on goal,all of which were turned aside by amazing saves. I'm sure EA would deny it, but sure felt like one of those games where the CPU decided Ottowa was going to win in the first minute - Ottowa won the opening face off, took the puck directly to my net and scored in the first 30 seconds, and it was game over.

Have one game left against Willhouse, hopefully we can cross paths between now and Monday.

Chicago is done for the week!

I've got two human and two AI games left. Will be on late tonight and late tomorrow night, then I leave for California Sunday am until next Friday.

PS. I hate the Penguins.

I should be able to make it on tonight, Mag. If not, tomorrow will be a no go. We're doing a birthday party with friends tomorrow night. How early can you get on?

magnus, I think you and I are scheduled for one. When is "late tonight" in your parlance?

Late tonight = around 9.30-10 CST...

Could likely jump on some time midday tomorrow if y'all can't make it tonight

I could likely get that to work tonight.

Finished my CPU games, didn't see y'all online. Gotta go to sleep.
