As Hadar noted...it's more fun.

BigChill, do you understand how the PU games work? These are what will be used for this upcoming competition. If you do not know what they are, or how to use them, can you please read up on them here (326327.1)

Yeah, check it out.

I can't speak for everyone here, BigChill, but you have put your hand up first. As long as you understand what it's all about, and are prepared to maintain a HG team, as well as understanding how PU games work, I'm sure everyone will happily welcome you aboard.

I'm sure the HG community would welcome another member.

I will let others comment here on this.

No worries. We still have almost 2 months to go, so plenty of time.

I'm new, but I have read in the forums to start on arena and gym.

To start right away is great. There is nothing special to play this game as a HG-team.

1. arena first … in a couple of Seasons add training court and gym.
2. staff: level 4 is sufficent at the beginning, add youth assistant after you drafted 3 18/19 yo trainees.
3. don‘t spend money for anything else than arena and scouting at the moment.

Hurtado and Browm are good to go: i would suggest to give them: inside Def, Handling, outside Def. and inside shooting. Focus should be on Brown (higher potential).
Next season (5 Trainees hopefully) Continue with 1on1-Frwds.

Try to get in a good position for the draft.

This season will be boring, so try to learn about Basic mechanics (get Full training!).

Have fun. If you have any questions regarding training, just ask 😉

Some great advice there. As Erik noted, arena and scouting (and training what you have) should be a priority.

If you want more of a breakdown about how training minutes, positions and setting line-ups work...just ask

Hello HG teams!

...it went dark here for awhile. I hope all teams are doing well as we move into the second half of Season 67.

So, with the Allstar break behind us, and the second half of the season in front of us, I think we should finalise the HGL as the start of Season 68 (when the HGL is set to begin) will arrive soon!

Firstly, here is the most recent and up-to-date list of teams competing:

Wagner College (172501) Manager: Wagner confirmed
Les Gueux du Marais (86508) Manager: Coach Faz Confirmed
Elan Demars (87312) Manager: demars confirmed
Holy City Hoopers (23767) Manager: Gccsteel Confirmed
Buckner Bandits (23579) Manager: T-Lit Confirmed
Madrid Chotis (76877) Manager: Jotadoce confirmed
WiMaOlca (35977) Manager: WiMaOl Confirmed
Rajdersi (237760) Manager: Paul George Confirmed
Santa Eufemia Ducks (24340) Manager: GM-Enzo confirmed
Swan River Serpents (197075) Manager: MrJ confirmed
Lielupes Melnas Sirdis (146915) Manager: Moneta Confirmed
Suuret Muinaiset (172657) Manager: cthulhu Confirmed
Heywood Big Dogs (196315)Manager: Deano25 Confirmed
Svätý Jur Snakers (172088) Manager: Hadar Confirmed


Wagner, are you still onboard to help me get this league finalised? Others?

Here's what I can do:

1. I can create a new forum thread (for Season 68) and list:
-the teams competing
-a reminder of what HG is (provide link)
-a reminder of the PickUp (PU) process (provide link)
-a reminder about having say 6 PU tokens saved prior to the start of Season 68 to organsie the first number of games.
-A brief explanation of the structure of the games for the league

2. I can bbmail all 14 teams again and have them reconfirm their participation in the HGL

3. Anything else required.

Wagner, or someone else will need to:

1. Set the rules and regulations for teams and games

2. Decide on whether MVP votes will be done, how and monitor it.


Anything else?

Just a thought : we don't HAVE TO be 14. It's easy to play with 13 teams !
(that's all, folks)
