Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
I missed the Stanley Cup game that used to run on the swamp. The one where you draft players at the beginning and got points. Multipliers for certain players. Coming to the end of the season...would be fun to do it again...hint hint hint. Appologize if this was a different swamper member.

I would also like to be in on this and I can think of a few friends who would as well.

I'd be happy to keep track of the scores but I would have no clue on how he set up the multiplier for each player.

Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Two years ago....
Players are sorted into 8 equal groups, based on Points Per Game rates from the regular season. As you go from group 1 to 8, points get progressively more valuable, meaning a goal/assist for Ovechkin (group 1) is worth 1 point, while a goal/assist for Jarome Iginla (group 4) is worth 1.75 points, and so on. There is also a team group, which awards either 4 or 8 points for a series win, depending on the seed of the team.
I felt aswirl with warm secretions.

Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
So I just take the top 95 (playoff bound) in the regular season points list and put 12 in each category? No need to worry about injuries or missed time, or should I at least make sure they are active when the season ends? Next Saturday is the end of the regular season - would anyone care if I did the breakdown midweek, assuming all of the playoff spots are locked up? How big of break is it before the playoffs really start?rass wrote:Two years ago....

Hey!
Sounds like there's interest, I'd be happy to set it up again.
I'll try to put a thread up this weekend, but probably wait until fucking Calgary eliminates the Jets before finalizing the groups.
I also wouldn't mind making a little website to put standings and stuff up on. What's this decade's version of blogspot or some kind of basic free hosting place? Tumblr?

I am putting out the Travzilla bat light a few weeks early. Need my fix of picking a bunch of players who get bounced in round one in huge upsets (see Washington Caps)

Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Good news and bad news...
Good news is I have no job and a decent amount of free time so I should be able to put this together again. However, I'm going on a road trip April 5th for about two weeks, so updates would be spotty the first week of the playoffs.
I'll try to have it up and ready early this year, by April 2nd or 3rd hopefully. Since there's only 1 bubble team in each conference, the groups could probably be set any time now.
I enjoyed making the website for it last year, so I think I'll do that again if people are ok with that.

Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Some sort of multiplier for each person your player infects and the size of the outbreak they cause. No extra points for Oilers forwards never coming within six feet of an opponent.

Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Coming tomorrow hopefully... somehow it’s the end of July already after it being June for like 3 months in my head.
Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Yes! I’m up for it if people are in. I’ll set it up tomorrow or Monday.
End of the season really snuck up on me here. With no real races it’s felt like there’s been ten games left for the last month.

side note- this thread is pretty interesting top-to-bottom. You see people who are no longer around, job stuff, and pandemic info.
Re: Paging Travzilla. Mr. Travzilla (Stanley Cup Draft Game)
Hi!
Wasn't sure if there was still enough interest but if there's at least 5 or 6 people still interested... I'll put up a thread tonight!
