Hockeyarena, free Ice hockey team management mmo
« on: April 11, 2012, 10:21:52 am »

Quite a nice sim that features 8 skills, rising in leagues, player market between players, national teams etc.
It doesn't require much attention. One log-in in a few days is enough if you want.

Ice hockey is considered the most important sport in Finland too, at least among men...

I'm not Canadian either, and my team's up 3-0 in the 1st of my first game.  :D

Weird bug though...all my player names are coming up "Retired" in the game reports. :(

I wanna know which of my rejiggered lines is doing all the damage.

EDIT: Ahh, I see. I was watching game tape of my team's last game under its old coach. They won 7-6. Wonder they fired the guy?

Okay, after spending half an hour or so yesterday coming up with my best lines and a training regimen and all....I log in this morning to find all of that thrown out the window and the AI has auto-arranged everything again.

So long, thanks for playing.  ::)

In this case you hadn't set your "squads" (don't know proper English word) You have to enable your "squads" to make them active. You must have at least 3 squads set.

I'm assuming you mean "lines" (5-man lineup). I deleted the original 3 and made 4 replacement lines (an attacking line, a speed line, a trapping line and a checking line). Set their priorities and everything.

Not only did it nuke all that, but it looks like it auto-assigned one of my goalies as a center, and another as a left wing.

Your handmade lines still exist. They are just disabled because you have set them wrong somehow. You might not have enough players in a line, you might not have enabled a line, a player in powerplay line might not be in any of your 5v5 lines causing an error.
