So you should have said 10 (or 12 if you include goalies). I listed the number of homosexuals on the field at a single time. You appeared to roll a dice and pick a random number.

I guess I should stop trying to apply conventional logic to BlueFlame logic as it's obviously impossible. You fly hard in the face of logic.

EDIT: Lets play a game, to test your guys' hockey knowledge.



Is this a legal check?

Quote from BlueFlame :The only Ice Hockey I watch is at the olympics. BECAUSE there isn't any fighting. [Generally]

Why do you feel necessary to specify that there's 20 players in a team? I mean, I guess it's only really the back up tender that doesn't get ice time, but everyone else does. So it's still a 20 man team. It sounds like you're suggesting that only the 5+1 guys on the ice at any one time are the sum of a teams parts?

Well surely as a seasoned player in hockey you'd know that it wasn't the case, as I said, I'm just a bit puzzled why you felt it necessary to mention that.

Well, you indicated that 20 players stop to fight. I figured I should tell you that there's either 2 teams (thus 40 players), or that they have more than 10 players per team.

I'm here to educate, as you clearly know nothing about the sport. Although that about sums up every single topic you attempt to discuss here, and then try to argue as if you're some kind of expert.

Or was it that you tried to add 20 + 20 and managed to get out 20, because algebra is so arbitrary and such nonsense?

Don't go for the 750. It's ridiculously underclocked, and crippled compared to the 760. You're better off saving up a bit of $/£/EUR to get a 760.

Quote from BlueFlame :As opposed to the 20 gays that decided to stop mid play to fight with handbags? Instead of do what they are paid to do?

More excellent hockey knowledge here guys.

A team is made up of 20 skaters (18 players and 2 goalies. A team may not go 19 players and 1 goalie) per team. 5 players (plus 1 goalie) or optionally 6 skaters (and no goalie) may be on the ice at a given time.

Also, how many fights did you see in the Olympics?

Right, 0. Because IIHF rules institute 5 + GM for fighting, where NHL only assesses a GM in specific situations (1 man fight I believe is one of them).

If the NHL instituted a 1 fight rule (which is what the GM for fighting effectively does), you would see nearly 0 fighting as well.

However, you'd see more dangerous and violent plays as a result of not having that unwritten code of honour that revolves around fighting and dangerous/violent plays (meaning, if you check someone in a bad manner, you should be prepared to fight as a result of the dirty play).

It's a good system as it theoretically keeps players in check from going too far, and writing out cheques on dirty plays that they can't cash.

But what do I know, I've only grown up around hockey my entire life, played over 600 games of it, and officiated over 1000 games, 100+ of those being Junior hockey.

Relatively, yes.. but that's relative to BlueFlame knowledge.

Cooper maybe its time to go home bro

Matt, you're not out of the woods either. Some of your vernacular was absolutely non-hockey and instead was jacked from that sport of 22 gay guys diving all over a grassy field while kicking a ball.

Quote from BlueFlame :Didn't specify anything like that on the olympics imagary.

Again, if you knew anything about hockey, you'd know that "Shots" implies "Shots on goal" as attempted shots are not a recorded stat.
dawesdust_12

Actually, the shots count expressly counts shots saved by goaltender (or goals). Not shots that miss, or hit the post. Hence them called "Shots on goal" and not "shots near goal".

Again, great hockey knowledge.

Quote from BlueFlame :Yea because the sport of ice hockey and the dynamics of human potential are really something hard to understand...

Considering you were trying to use the GAA as a way to measure a teams ability, and use it as why Latvia did better against Canada is about the most obvious "case in point" about how little you understand hockey.

GAA is only ever used as a stat to gauge a goalies abilities, never a full team.

If a team gets 60+ shots on your goalie, it means you are significantly worse at breaking the puck out of your zone than the other team is at holding the line and back checking.

Fact of the matter was Latvia managed only like 15 shots in the whole game. That's like 1 shot every 4 minutes. That's Latvia's offence being destroyed by Canada's defense.

So yes, you clearly do not understand hockey with the ways that you tried to gauge Latvia's performance.

That said, I dunno why I'd expect anything less from BlueFlame and Matt. Having indepth conversations about things they obviously don't understand.

Quote from Mustangman759 :I have to agree, Canada kept the puck better and really set up good shots. Didn't even bother watching USA vs Finland because I knew Rask would shut us down after a morale dip like that.

Quote from BlueFlame :Yea you guys got railed for the Bronze, although at least you were in contention for it, unlike the Russians.

Final was an amazing spectacle of Canadian Ice Hockey talent, although I did want Sweden to knock the puck in to liven things up. After that 2nd goal it was just game over.

I laughed very hard reading about you guys talking about hockey, considering how lacking your knowledge is, along with your totally incorrect vernacular.

Made me laugh.

As someone who spent $1300 on a new gaming PC for AC (and DOTA) and it will do me for years of sim racing. Full grid of AIs and I get like 90FPS with a GTX 760. Spend the money and you will be good for a while. Then GPUs are usually the only thing you'll need to upgrade.

Money well spent, right guys?

Never mind what Bose explained as a "product" doesn't exist at all.

Scawen, instead of hoping for 100 hz monitors (which is unlikely), why not look towards a 120hz cycle for the physics as there are already displays that run at 120hz (plus divides evenly by a 60hz display, rather than having slight drift).

Not that it matters too much, but that's a more likely solution than hoping for 100hz monitors.

Quote from Sueycide_FD :Always embarrassing when a city has it's own big Homicide section dedicated to numbering and giving details of the crimes.

I'm pretty sure every American city and town has a dedicated squad of 30 or 50 people for this task. They're kept pretty busy too.
