Renomitsu

With @Mysterious_Fish stepping down, and @AJW taking over FZ there was a gap in the NHL pick'ems. I figured I'd help out since this is the Stanley Cup Finals! Gotta get that TPE.
 
 
Check to see if you completed it!
 
 
 
Form will close before Game 2 (Monday at 8 PM ET)
And because I like the stats that @AJW does, here are some about the finals:
13 People (14.8%) chose Edmonton as their Cup Winner
8 People (9.1%) chose Florida as their Cup Winner
 
The 2 highest losers were:
18.2% - Carolina Hurricanes - 16 People
15.9% - Dallas Stars - 14 People

 
It probably will be the last time I'm doing anything with FZ. It was an honor. You are all in good hands with @AJW.

1: Who do you think is going to get the first overall pick in the VHL this season? (There's a few teams that will be at the bottom).
I mean it would be pretty sad if the LA Stars didn't get the first overall pick given how miserably they did this season, but really their odds vs the field aren't that great in reality.
 
2: What is one area that the Chicago Phoenix are lacking in?
Hm, not sure - we have a reasonably diverse and talented roster and are pretty close to the cap. Maybe a future center? I have no idea.
 
3: Who is your favorite teammate on the team so far and why?
@Doomsday and I go way back. I'm pretty sure it's him.
 
4: What is the best gift you've ever received? Why was it the best?
Honestly? A rice krispie cake in the shape of a kidney when I turned 30. I was on NICU and my wonderful intern made it for me. The thought and effort that went into it was incredible.
 
5: Who do you think is going to win the Stanley Cup out of the remaining teams and why?
New York, I guess? I dunno.
 
6: If your player is going to win an award this season, what award do you think they'll win and why?
Well, I had a shot at getting the MIP but didn't quite do it. That's okay though, we'll just try to win it all next season and that's consolation enough for me.

Hi Renooooo
 
1. Absolutely not interested in staying with what I’m doing.  Hoping to branch out and do something a little more lucrative some day.  For now…it pays the bills.  
 
2. I like the Panthers myself at this point. Not sure if they are the favourite but I think they are one of them. 
 
3. I like the length but I wouldn’t hate an 82 game seasons.  I like the overall length tho of the season.  Games need to be every day. 
 
—-
 
1. I’ve been debating my next player recently and am wondering, what position do you think you’ll make next?
 
2. Wife and I have been looking at cruises recently as a little baby moon.  What place would you like to visit most in the world?
 
3. I’ve been in this league a long time and seen a ton of changes that have helped the league grow into what it is today. What change would you implement, if given the power to do so, to help improve any of the VHL, VHLE or VHLM?

The Leafs are out so now all I care about is TPE but for some lucky fanbases you keep going!
Go Nucks Go

The form will close at 6 pm EST on Wednesday, 5/8.

Can we have more than a handful of hours to fill these out 😐

I absolutely hate cilantro and get made fun of by lots of people I know from places where it’s very central to cooking. I can’t help what it tastes like to me 😕

1. I think you would probably have to go Seattle or Coyotes, new team and new fan base you can have an identity with the team and be apart of the teams history
2. I would have to say I have a top three and they are @Banackock & @Gustav  & @dasboot. Bana as I have spent some time with him IRL and had some good chats since he drafted me in S67, Boot for similar reasons as well as our hour long podcasts we would do almost every week. Gustav as have always had some contact with him since joining his team in S66 as well as trying to create a sim league together
3. Two point goal if you score from behind the blue line
 
Q1. Which VHL member would you like to see come back
Q2. What is your least favourite point task that you do each week
Q3. If all the blues were to step down at once who should replace them to keep the sim league running

It was late, I was in a rush, I counted wrong.
 
Also I’m fucking old.
Fun fact that you probably already know: that’s a genetic thing. Some people have a gene that makes it taste like soap and others don’t.

Last one. Payouts coming out soon for #2!
 
The Form will close Monday April 22nd at 6pm EST or When VHL/E/M Sims Start

This is the worst thing I have ever had to do.

To drown your sorrows, have some bonus TPE!

1. I think Ai can be an amazing tool, I don't think Ai should touch anything to in government positions lol, But I think having an AI assistant would be sweet.
2. Why not, I have never really played so why not give it a try!
3. Being active and trying ur best to earn as much as you can, some of the top players stat wise can have half the tpe the most has!
 
1. Was there any team you wanted to be drafted by when you first started?
2.  If your player had to go pro in any other sport what would it be and why?
3. If you could have a superpower what would it be and why?

As I work in film this has been a hot topic for the last couple of years with opinions ranging from “we’re all fucked, it’s gonna replace us all” to “it’s fucking dumb and doesn’t stand a chance in creative fields.” On the whole I fall in the middle, I think it’s a useful tool in some circumstances but people need to not trust it too much. Ultimately it is easily mistaken and fooled because it’s pulling from incomplete information. As for specifics, I think stuff like coding can benefit from it greatly because it’s the kind of thing it understands well and you can save hours of debugging. As for what it should stay out of: almost anything creative. It’s a machine, it lacks creativity. All it can do is effectively copy and steal from others and badly mimic it. Useful as a planning tool for something maybe but not as an end product.

I had the above all written already when @Kisslinger took those questions so I’m gonna just leave it and answer his haha
Well I first started in S1 when no one knew anything about any of the teams and also, I’ll be honest, most of the logos were fucking terrible ripoffs. With that said Amstel had the first pick so I was quite pleased to be taken with it haha.
 
I mean wrestling seems the obvious choice, IYKYK I would say… and if you don’t well google my player’s name.
 
Probably teleportation. It’s not one of the more obvious ones but man, it would be such a time saver wouldn’t it?

—————
 
1. If you could pick one food item to be banished from existence and you’d never have to risk tasting it again what would you choose?
 
2. How do you think the league is going to celebrate its centennial season?
 
3. If you had to choose a player, both real or VHL and from any era, to emulate who would you choose?

The Form will close Monday April 8th at 6pm EST or when VHL/E/M Sims Start
