How to report games

[Kenu]

Hi and thanks for joining NHLGamer! Here's a quick guide for how to report the games in the NACL.

 

When everything goes as plannerd, you need photos of three screens from your game:

 

1. The end of game screen, including the 3 stars.

 

2. The game events - Penalties

 

3. The game events - Goals

 

 

Next up is reporting the game on the site - this is done by the winning game captain (or assistants). Go to NHLGamer.com:

To report a game:
Select TEAM TOOLS -> ADD MATCH (EA API):

 

Be sure to pick the correct game (don't report DNF games through API) - in this case I picked the 1-2 game at the top

 

 

The site will pre-load stats from the EA API.
First part: Just make sure the number of penalties is correct. Then fill in the three stars.

 

 

Example of finished first part.

 

 

Second part: The game events (unfortunately these are not available through the API)

 

Be carful to fill these out correctly.

 

Abbreviation explanations: PP = Powerplay, SH = Shorthanded, ES = Even strength, WOG = Without goalie (goal being scored while having a 6th skater), PS = Penalty Shot, EN = Empty net (goal being scored on empty net)

 

 

The 3rd and final part is also pre-populated and you shouldn't have to change anything here - but if you notice any mistakes, let us know.

Click submit and you're done!

It may look confusing and complicated at first glance, but once you get the hang of it you'll see it's just a breeze (unless you score 20 goals...that one's on you. 😎)
