I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable with someone named Darky using those team colours....

[nomaaa]

the darky all-blacks?

Now THAT'S a smile that can light up a room.

Darky - what emulator are you using? My favorite emulator (JNes) doesn't work on Mac, so I'm trying to find the easiest one to record/export games for a Mac (from what I can tell, Nestopia only has that functionality on PC).

VirtuaNES for Win32.

Also, my next post will have a lineup change.

[fightonusc]

I think I have a pretty good workaround for recording (screen capture via Quicktime plus the Soundflower add-on to capture the audio).

Question for the group: which of the three options would you prefer for viewing the games?

- Full game at regular speed
- Full game at faster speed (1.5x to 2x)
- Regular speed but with only the actually plays shown (i.e. editing out balls, strikes and fouls that don't lead to a K or W)?

Last option

[BeefMaster]

Either #2 or #3 are fine with me.

[Shooty]

I like #3, but seems like more work for fighton.  Don't want him to have another excuse not to finish something. 

[Darky]

Full game at faster speed.

I watched the tournament I just ran at this speed in the pic below (games take about 10 mintues). I just hit the shift bar to activate the throttle function so the game goes at the speed shown below. When I ran the league last time around, I used the same speed when I recorded the games for people who has the VirtuaNES and taped the games to put on YouTube to make the viewing experience more convenient. I was going to tape the championship game of the tournament and put it on youtube, but figured screw it.

So how am I going to watch the games exactly? Will I be able to download the zip files and run them into my emulator? Will I have to download additional software that is compatible with the software you'll be using?

[fightonusc]

Everything is getting posted on YouTube.

I'm going to run a practice game tonight and play around with some video editing features.

[Shooty]

Make sure to get your dick in the frame.

[fightonusc]

ALWAYS

[Nacho]

Full game 1.5 speed

[Shooty]

Who's winning?

[GDavis]

bump

[Shooty]

Darky needs to intervene.

[fightonusc]

Does everyone have their lineups set? I know there was some confusion from the TBG/Beefy/GDavis camp? I'm locking the ROM down for Week 1 so let me know now if you have changes. (If you haven't given me orders for PHs and pitchers, I'm just going with the order they were drafted.)

[GDavis]

Use Beefy's lineup and just switch Canseco with Gaetti (so Canseco is leadoff).  TIA.

[Gantry]

Cansco at leadoff, bold.  I like it
