  1. You're the man! I'm gonna fire this up right now. (results attached)
  2. That's a good thing you don't know, it means you're normal. BSD (Big Swingin' Dick) is QB Bills "pet" name. It's an HSTL thing...
  3. Chatted with Brude last night... You'll notice the WR has the same delay as the QB dropback before he's able to be MAN controlled. After that the control follows the ball. I'm not sure what happens to controls while the ball is in the air. Very cool stuff.
  4. PM this character and tell him Diaz set you.-----> http://tecmobowl.org/user/9596-callmefairf/

  6. Can't you just type "TBK" as the coupon code and get a "hidden discount"?
  7. I'm pretty sure it's wherever Mort is staying. The rest of us are just groupies. Last year I booked where he was the previous year, and had to change to Super 8 so I could be cool.
  8. I just spit my afternoon whiskey everywhere.
  9. It's like asking a bunch of bank tellers the best way to rob a bank. You need G.Bs Bob Nelson in your life.
  10. This also applies to you. >https://twitter.com/diazzhole/status/541973382451822593
  11. Nice work, I didn't look too closely but good for you for putting something together. For me, it's WAY too juicy but I'm sure tons of people will love it and if you love it that's all that matters. I've been slowly working on one also. Nothing fancy with the rom itself, just player ratings and names. Anyway, it's made in the "spirit" of the Original Tecmo Bowl, but of course on the Tecmo Super Bowl format. I probably need some help with it as far as smoothing the ratings and even possibly names and race. I haven't committed a ton of time into it consistently so sometimes I kind of forgot where I was with it. Anyway, it consists basically of: 28 Teams (Not just the original 12) 1987ish rosters. I don't know Tecmo Bowl like I know TSB but it appears players spanned anywhere from 1986-1988. In regards to the original 12 teams. More care was put into those ratings and positions to duplicate the "feel" of Tecmo Bowl. It's probably been done before but I didn't see it on the site but I think it's a decent start. Anyway, check it out if you have 5 minutes to burn. I'm not going to post an official thread for it until I feel better about it. tecmo_super_bowl_1987.zip
  12. Console or emulator? Hmmm, I'd have to see some tape to be able to rule if any foul play was involved. From your recap it appears you were forcing the ball to Wallace. 11 attempts to one WR is quite a bit in Tecmo, especially with a 31 pass control QB. Were you playing 8 minute quarters? Also, it's okay to dump the ball down to Lamar or Knowshon. And what about poor Hartline? They have tiny 8-bit feelings too. If all else fails download the TSBTool and create a rom that you can actually win on. Good luck in the rest.
  13. No, unfortunately not. But we will try to play as many live games as possible to have a league that combines both online and live Tecmo. Can't wait for those saps to buy us our first trophy. Hopefully mine will have a beard.
  14. I've never tested this nor have proof but I agree 100%. I'd also argue that kicking from the top hash gives you more margin of error.
  15. Yeah it's pretty damn good. Especially considering the $$$. The ONLY downside so far is that sometimes it's a little slow to ring when someone is calling me, while on VoIP. I've had two instances where the call has gone to VM on the 2nd ring (on my end). But hey, $10 a month! Right?
  16. Just found the unread and subscribed options. Awesome!
  17. I'm just getting acclimated with the app. Would be awesome if there was a page for viewing all recent posts like on the site. Or am I missing it? Thanks!
  18. Hehe... good stuff. But seriously, here is HSTL by the numbers. And also consider that Bo is usually drafted very high by the coaches with very poor records from the previous season. I'd say it's close.. *cough* It's almost like this list reflects MS or something. Weird!
