Geek Hockey (Mentalities)

Post by **archibalduk** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 9:44 pm

Please just use this thread to post your player mentalities for each game. Discussion/questions should go in the General Discussion thread. Any discussion in this thread will be deleted.

For each game you can choose one of the following mentalities: Conservative / Balanced / Aggressive

Here's how the mentalities work:

Skaters:

Aggressive - Plays offensively. Will create more goal-scoring opportunities but could leave gaps in defence.
Balanced
Conservative - Plays defensively. It will be harder for the opposition to get to the net but the disadvantage is that you won't create as many goal-scoring opportunities yourself.

Goalies:

Aggressive - Will use their stick more, tying to play the puck more and poking it away from oncoming attackers.
Balanced
Conservative - Will stick to the goal line and have greater use of their glove.

Round 1
......... HAR v MIN .........
......... CHI v MTL .........
......... QBC v WIN .........

Please post your mentalities for the first round of games. If a player has not posted their mentality by Friday 11 April 8am UK Time (9am CET / 3am EST / 12am PST) then their team captain can post the mentality on their behalf. If a player hasn't had a mentality set by the time I play the games, they will be set to 'balanced'.

The games should take place some time this weekend - probably Sunday.

Here are the current team rosters. A couple of grey players currently have zero attributes because I'm still waiting for team captains to come back to me with their choices. If they haven't been set by the time I play the games, I shall give them a balanced set of attributes.

Team captains can now set the mentalities of teammates that have not yet posted their mentality. You can use the roster list in the first post of this thread to see who your teammates are. You can then scroll through this thread to see who has and hasn't set a mentality.

Users are still welcome to post their own mentality if they haven't yet.

I hope the first game will take place on Sunday. I have a busy weekend so it might not be until Monday. We'll see...

Round 2
......... MTL v HAR .........
......... WIN v MIN .........
......... QBC v CHI .........

Please post your mentalities for the first round of games. If a player has not posted their mentality by Friday 11 April 8am UK Time (9am CET / 3am EST / 12am PST) then their team captain can post the mentality on their behalf. If a player hasn't had a mentality set by the time I play the games, they will be set to 'balanced'.

The games should take place some time this weekend - probably Sunday.

Up-to-date rosters are available in the General Discussion Thread.

TWO NOTES FOR TEAM CAPTAINS:
* If a team loses a game, the Team Captain is allowed to alter the attributes of up to three players on his team (including himself). For each of the three players, he can move up to two attribute points from one or two skills to one or two other skills. Attributes cannot be moved between players. Teams may want to discuss how they move attributes, but the Team Captain has the final say. If you wish to make any changes then PLEASE POST THEM IN THIS THREAD. If you want to discuss potential changes with your teammates, use the General Discussion thread.

* If any of your teammates did not post a mentality for the previous game, the Team Captain may set their mentality this time around (you don't have to wait until the Thursday deadline to post for these players).
