Yup, just copypastad your copypasta. Being original is boring. 

I realized after you copied the whole damn thing!

INDEX

@VHLE GM It's that time again! Please review your rosters to make sure they look good. Sims start on Friday (early evening) so make sure you have your lines in well before that.

<Copypasta on how to do lines>

To send in your lines please use the Team Management section of the portal. The process for downloading the client file and using STHS to make your lines is still the same, and if you have manual requests due to waiver pick-ups or other roster changes please PM me your notes through Discord.

<End>

I will try to catch any FA pick-ups before Friday and add them to the Index if time permits, please DM to let me know just to be sure.

STHS Client 3.3.7 is the most up-to-date version, please check and update your client if required.

I think that covers it, best of luck everyone. I'll be pinging the VHLE Sim Alert role on Discord before each sim so make sure you're signed up for that.

@VHL GM It's that time again! Please review your rosters to make sure they look good. Sims start on Friday (approximately 6:00pm pst) so make sure you have your lines in well before that. If you don't I will purposely make really bad lines for you.

 

<Copypasta on how to do lines>

Anyway, you all know the drill by now, GMs are no longer required to email in their lines to submit them. To send in your lines please use the Team Management section of the portal. The process for downloading the client file and using STHS to make your lines is still the same, and if you have manual requests due to waiver pick-ups or other roster changes please PM me your notes through Discord.

Bruh come up with your own post structure.

We’re able to retire and play the season today! May Kovalchuk’s retirement be reversed for Warsaw please? @Josh @Spartan @Acydburn  etc thank you!  

Not with this attitude.

Round Robin Index

Medal Round Index

Tournament starts as soon as I get all the lines in! Please send your lines directly to me either on the forum or Discord.  Any questions just shoot me a DM on Discord or a PM on the forum. Rosters should be good however if you see anything wrong let me know. Ensure you are copying rosters and lines to all days.

Best of luck to everyone let's have a fun tournament!

I think more people bought fighters this season than the last 2 combined.

@Josh retired by mistake, didn’t realize I’d actually be playing this season. Unretire this bum please ☝ thanks. 

Done

I don't love even odds but agree that the lotto tournament itself needs to die. 

I think the current odds are a bit dramatic though and would propose compressing the scale:

1. 30.0% -> 22.5%
2. 22.5% -> 20.0%
3. 17.5% -> 17.5%
4. 12.5% -> 15.0%
5. 10.0% -> 12.5%
6.  7.5% -> 12.5%

Or something similar.

The staff page is, for the most part, auto-generated based on the forum roles that each user has. We can likely just remove old commissioners from the list and keep them in a separate role to clean things up.

Y'all know already. @VHL GM Good luck, startin' tomorrow.

Honestly development is just really easy and I can't believe Josh takes as long as he does on things. 

I think we all know which player would get a career-ending injury first.

This was the longest read to make minuscule steps toward any form of policy. This is what I have so far:

---

Mods get the same rights as every other member to take part in and contribute to the community.

Mods are expected to be examples of good community members.

Mods will receive punishment in line with what other members receive given the same level of offense.

Mods can not use their additional power in the community over another member in a way that isn't directly handing out punishment (reactive).

The COC is not and will never be exhaustive. Mods will need to work as a group (with Commissioners) to determine if actions that appear to be detrimental to the community should receive punishment and be codified. 

---

Mods aren't held to a higher standard for rules but are going to be under way more scrutiny than the average user, there's nothing that we could do about that.

Ban evading and aiding ban evasion is clearly a mod issue, but... given that the user was a GM it is fair to include the commissioners in a discussion. It should now be added to the Code of Conduct so people are more aware.

To summarize the AJ issue: was Fong an asshat? Yes. Did he harass AJ? Doesn't seem like it. Also, why the fuck is that thread locked?

I'm on my phone so I'll keep it short; but generally abortion rights falls under sexism so not sure just saying "isms" works.

Finance cut off I think works best. If everyone is happy I will run it this upcoming season 

Post or pre depreciation?

Is it possible to get an export of players and their tpe at a point in time. I can make my google form with just that information 

Just tell me when.

I'd still vote for a static 3 across the board.

My only development goal at this point is to document how the portal works from top to bottom so that the league is resilient to my sudden demise. Will does have access to everything I've created however so the league wouldn't blow up immediately or anything.

Sliding ELC and E hard cap are being discussed in other threads. I have made the update that Thad originally pointed out in the OP already. Lets use the other threads to continue those ideas.

I would just say something like 3 EXP for completing a season in the VHLM / E would make 0 difference overall and could be seen as a nice engagement thing. I don't think we need to complicate with bonuses for playoffs or anything however.
