  1. You could but always be careful with negative feedback. Most of the time it's not necessary to leave negative feedback. Plus if you leave a negative, they will leave a negative. It's always good to try to work things out first if there are ever any issues. I think you have the option also of not accepting the payment if it's from a credit card, thus the transaction will still be open to other methods that you list. I've never sold so I may be incorrect about the rejecting a form of payment, hopefully someone can clear that up.

  3. What is the conditions? With emulation now a days and those games, you might fetch 15 bucks. You would probably make more if you jakked up the shipping 5 bucks more then it really costs. I don't mind ebay but I have had paypal problems before with normal accounts. Their customer service is horrible. I had a normal paypal account that I just used for paying sellers on ebay. I had $1000 bucks to send to other sellers and that account went fine. Once that ran out they try to get you to do some expanded process number thingy that didn't show up on my statement and things just went downhill from there. If you contact your credit card to get the number, they sometimes contact paypal to complain, and then paypal can close your account. I also had an instance where right off the bat paypal demanded I go through the expanded use number process while not stating it in my account. I of course thinking I could pay for an ebay purchase no problem bid and won a 5 fucking dollar item and couldn't pay because I had to go through the process and wait 20 days for my statement since my capital one credit card I have can't be checked online (transactions/statements, etc). I contacted customer service because when I tried to pay it said I was over my sending limit even though my sending limit was listed as $1000. The email I received back said that if my credit card status says "expanded use number needed" that I still needed to go through the process. Of course my credit card status said "primary" and thus a few more emails were sent back and forth with paypal basically saying "fuck you, you need to go through this process if you want to send money". The thing that pissed me off was not that I had to go through this process, but that I had no idea and it wasn't listed anywhere in my account. You can't tell that you need to go through this process until you check out, and if you can't check transactions online, you are fucked as most sellers are pricks and won't wait a month for you to pay for something.

    For people who play franchise mode. What has your goalies save percentages ended up being at the end of the season? I've changed my options so the goalies don't flop as much, thus the scoring is more realistic but my goalie's save percentage is always .840 - .880ish
  5. Maybe the people who buy the real belts have a lot of money, while we might put down 10-40 bucks on a belt without any problems, maybe two grand is like 40 bucks to some people who are well off financially. I know that if I ever won the lottery I would buy a lot of useless fun shit that I otherwise would never consider getting. *oops, sorry about the double post.

  8. Did you wash your hands?
  9. Did you have the tool where you could edit rosters and stuff during your current game? I forget who made it, maybe Arsenic, but there was a keylogger spyware found in the utility. That of course isn't EWR as EWR does not contain spyware and your Technician was probably inept and stated shit he didn't know.
  10. No it doesn't. It never has had any spyware.

    This thread on their forum implies that they would release a 2007 version. http://community.sigames.com/groupee/forum...25/m/5882024361 I hope they do.

    Thanks. I actually found it a few days ago after doing some more searches. I downloaded the try and buy version and am about 3 months in controlling the Blackhawks. The game is very detailed. I will probably buy it once the trial runs out though on the forums they are talking about releasing another version so I might just wait until then and try playing the minors and whatnot.

    Give him a limited role on the third of forth line. I find that if a player has a rating in the 50's or even low 60's with a potential in the 90's that letting them sit on the bench the whole season really hampers their development. It would be best to play that player, even over a better rated fourth liner just so he gets some ice time and can improve. Also make sure those stupid stat thingies you can buy are set for the one that raises max potential and he should develop in no time.

    Also, just to emphasize my point. Here is the definition for the Hart Trophy as taken from the NHL.com website. The Hart Memorial Trophy is an annual award given to the player judged to be the most valuable to his team. Now based on the true definition of the trophy, its silly to say that Ovechkin shouldn't be given recognition when he scores over 40% of his teams points and more then doubles the second place guy on his team in regards to points.

    I disagree with that. The trophy is for most valuable player. That doesn't mean that said player must lead his team to first place or even high in the standings. I provided stats that show just how valuable Ovechkin is to Washington. When someone can play at such a high level with no support on a shitty team, that makes a very valuable player in the league. The MVP is not a team trophy. You know that if Ovechkin played for any other team he would have better stats. I'm not saying he should win the trophy, but he should get consideration.

    Why do you refuse to buy stuff online? It's secure if thats what you are worried about. Anyone have any more info on that hockey sim? I found a site that had minor details and a few screenshots and it looks really impressive.

    I disagree greatly. He is a complete player and has 46 points. The second place guy on his team has 22. Washingtons problem is that they have no defence. You can't blame him for that. Luongo last year got hart consideration despite his team not making the playoffs. I won't blame Ovechkin for playing for a shitty team when he is [quputting up numbers like he is when compared to his teammates. Fernandez has slightly better numbers then Hasek and plays for a team that averages 2.85 goals a game in support. Ottawa averages 4.39 goals a game. The edge goes to Fernandez in that case as it's harder for him to get wins in that regard. Mainly because he is dominating his team and without him, they probably would be at Columbus levels. I don't think him playing for a crappy team should hurt him that much. Its goals against which is hurting Washington. They also have problems scoring goals but Ovechkin has been in on 46 of 107 goals. He is basically 43% of his teams offensive output and that is very impressive. In regards to the Hart trophy, being a well rounded player doesn't really matter. I'm pretty sure the rangers will make the playoffs and be one of the higher ranked teams. If I was making a list of 6, he would have been the 6th goalie. Good point, can't argue with that. Either should get consideration. Injuries may hurt both players chances. Not to discredit any of Haseks play, I don't think he is the most valuable player on his team, let alone the league. He is the Grant Fuhr of the Edmonton Oilers, overshadowed by a few other players on his team. I know people will argue that he has great goalie stats, and he does, but I think Heatly, Alfredsson and Spezza have better and are worth more to their team as Emery has proven to have very similar goalie stats. It's hard to pick one since all pretty much have the exact same statistics and I have only watched two Ottawa games all year. As I stated above, I would keep Ovechkin on the list but replace McCabe if one of these three were to be included. Just incase It wasn't made clearer in my first post, I didn't put any players in order so I didn't pick McCabe for the spot. I just listed 5 players I felt worthy in no order. I didn't pick that trophy because it's stupid. It's never about the best coach, it almost always goes to a new coach that took a shit team last year and improved then greatly in the standings. Considering Scotty Bowman has only won one in his career. That says something about the Jack Adams and how it's voted.

    Now that we are just about at the midway point of the season, lets bitch, argue and discuss the mid season trophy winners/leaders/etc My top 5 finalists would be (in no particular order) Calder Trophy - Rookie of the Year - Sidney Crosby (37GP 19G 23A 42PTS) - Alexander Ovechkin (37GP 24G 22A 46PTS) - Marek Svatos (39GP 20G 14A 34PTS 7GWG) - Dion Phaneuf (39GP 9G 14A 23PTS 8PPG 4GWG) - Henrik Lundqvist (25GP 14W 5L 4OT 1SO 2.19GAA .925SV%) Really tough call this year as there is a great crop of rookies out there. Hart Memorial Trophy - NHL Most Valuable Player - Alexander Ovechkin (Washington) - Bryan McCabe (Toronto) - Jaromir Jagr (New York) - Peter Forsberg (Philadelphia Flyers - Mikka Kiprusoff (Calgary Flames) Another hard trophy as any of the three scoring sens could be included as well. I will elaborate on my picks. Ovechkin has been pretty much the only thing going in Washington. Without him, they would probably be even worse off then they are. He is dominating and exciting and will develop into a superstar player. McCabe is an interesting pick and one I made since I watch many leaf games (don't worry, I'm not a leaf fan) and he is the dominating force on the team. If a team takes a penalty, they fear McCabe as he can produce with the advantage and has a dangerous shot. Everything seems to be going well for him this season as he is having a super breakout season. Jagr is having another great season after a few lackluster ones in Washington. He seems to have found his scoring touch and is lighting up the league again this year. Forsberg is probably the best set up man in the league. The only thing that might hurt his chances of hardware this year is the constant injuries he seems to be always facing. He produces well even with all the injuries, I wonder what he could be capable of in an injury free season. Kiprusoff is once again leading the Flames to a great season behind the pipes. His league high 5 shutouts are tremendous considering only 2 other goalies have 3 and 8 others have 2. James Norris Memorial Trophy - Top Defenseman in the NHL - Bryan McCabe - Lubomir Visnovsky - Nicklas Lidstrom - Wade Redden - Zdeno Chara This is another tough catagory this year as there doesn't seem to be a clear cut winner. McCabe, Visnovosky. Lidstrom and Redden are putting up very great offensive numbers and Chara is once again being a bruising defender with an offensive touch. Vezina Trophy - Top Goalie in the NHL - Mikka Kiprusoff - Dominick Hasek - Manny Fernandez - Henrik Lundqvist - Curtis Joseph Another trophy with no clear cut winner. Kiprusoff has been very steady in net this year. Hasek has been pretty flawless but the fact that he plays for such an offensive team might make his numbers more impressive in the wins catagory then they would be on any normal team. Fernandez has some of the best stats out of any goalie and wins many games on his own. Henrik is the rookie that is leading the Rangers to the top spot in their division and Cujo is having a very solid season that no one seems to notice. This would be my First and Second All Star teams if the season were to end tonight: First Team Allstars C - Eric Staal RW - Jaromir Jagr LW - Ilya Kovalchuk D - Bryan McCabe D - Lubomir Visnovsky G - Manny Fernandez Second Team Allstars C - Joe Thorton RW - Daniel Alfreddson LW - Simon Gagne D - Nicklas Lidstrom D - Wade Redden G - Mikka Kiprusoff

    Paypal if very secure, and it's almost too secure to the point that you can screw people out of an item and get your money back, even if you received the item on ebay.

    You can download updated rosters whenever they are available, they won't actually change your current season or franchise rosters. Once you download a roster update, you would have to start a new season/franchise with the updated rosters.
