    Any rude things I say to you I mean as much as I do when I say rude things to nearly anyone else!

    And here I thought I was special , Whelp get your boxing gloves out then Jardy, I think we may need to hash this out. LMAO

     

    But really usually when people start sounding off I just say the same thing I do every time I piss off some over sensitive sim simpleton, if you don like what I say or who I am get feel free to get in the complaints line with the many like minded individuals who have a hate on for me. Lets be honest the line is pretty long at this point, please enjoy that long walk to the back of the line, the current wait time is indefinite because haters ain't worth my time and effort.

     

    :D

    He committed the crime of being here long enough to know how sincere I’m being when I say rude things to him.

    Lol does that mean you mean the rude things you say to me too? :D

    @BladeMaiden don’t listen to his manipulative ways. He has spent too many days in the sun!! 

    lol we are all vhl oldies now but I’ll remember that ;)

  3. Review :

     

    By far the most artistic thing I've seen from you, there is a real feel to this graphic which adds another dimension to it. I love the attention to detail, even the logo is flipped in the glass. Idk how you do it but i love seeing it every week. This one gets a big HELL YESSSSSS from me :)

     

    10/10 you are the man, the myth and the legend buddy

    1. Will  @Mistxh J sign his extension? Will @BladeMaiden sign hers?

     

    2. Who do you want to win the finals, Malmo or Seattle?

     

    3. Are you looking forward to the inaugural season of the E?

     

    4. Be the GM for a moment, if you had the 7th pick of the draft with our current roster, what would you do with it? 

     

    5. Is your player more the "enjoy the break" type or the "can't wait to get back out there" type?

     

    6. Something fun you are doing in real life, or looking forward to doing in the near future?

    1.) I’m no fortune teller but I know @diamond_ace possess a silver tongue, I don’t know a person he can’t charm into wanting to be on his team. They would have to be some kind of monster!

    2.) Seattle: so-we can keep up the story that teams that get rid of venus tend to win cups and i wanna see @Jubo get a cup!

    3.)no, it’s probably exciting for those entering it but i personally am not invested.

    4.) always nab a C or a D man literally you can’t go wrong.

    5.) Venus works hard and plays harder, there is no off season just prep for next year’s domination!

    6.) hand knitting a blanket for someone special. 

  5. review 
     

    Love the black and white card bit I really would have liked to see the penguins logo replaced with even a blank, it just takes away that instant recognizably of what team this thing was even for in this specific case. Black and white images  already  take away the colour connection with teams so when we choose that we as artist have to give other context clues. Honestly other than that it’s a beautiful card that looks pretty legit.

     

    9/10

  6. Review: 

     

    I’m gonna start by saying that i really enjoyed the colours chosen in this bright signature. Seeing that deep forest like green played off a whit sunny yellow was a smart choice. If i had to mention something you might want to try for next time; I would suggest that you focus on making the render the main show in your graphics. The overall balance in this is off but it’s a great logo swap. I encourage you to keeping playing with layering sizing and effects to creat balance and movement when someone views your art. Your work looks very clean and I enjoyed seeing the personality and style.

     

    8/10  keep at it!

  7. Feelin’ Blue and not in a good vibes, 90s song kind of way!

     

    If you have been here for longer than a few seasons you might be familiar with the mid career blues, they can be defined by less than optimal performance but lets be honest  even users with the best players in the vhl can get hit with the general blah that is mid career. I looked at Venus’ over all today and I can honestly say I could  not believe how consistent my little beauty has been. I also could not fight off the inevitable “ so what” that came after, if you’re not on the leaderboard or lets be honest if you’re not the top of that leaderboard then you have no hope of a hall of fame career. Sure we are all here to have fun but I think most of us will agree that we didn’t come here to lose. I haven’t had much team success or personal success since joining and at best the VHL has been a very mixed bag for me. Which brings me back to that ‘so what’  with the effort we put in we expect to see it pay off in some shape or form but the truth is that second fiddle is the most some of us will ever obtain, so is it worth even caring or trying? Everyone has their own personal  response to this question but for me it has been becoming less and less worth it over time and  it literally hit me today. I either just want to quit overall or am just extremely underwhelmed with Thightrap’s career and tbh both those don’t bode well for the future. 

  8. 1. If you were hired to show tourists what life is really like where you play hockey, what would you show them / have them do?

    2. What would be the most unsettling thing to keep occasionally finding in one of your team mates houses?

    3. What nicknames do you have for people in your life?

    4. What does the opposite sex do that you wish that you could do, but it’s not anatomically feasible or it’s socially frowned upon?

    5. How much do you plan / prepare for the playoffs or upcoming season?

    6. What do you hate most and love most about your current car?

  9. Review:

     

    Love the Artsy look of this sig.  The black and white with a splash of colour is definitely a vibe. My only negative is that the Toronto patch is very prominent. Overall I would say this is a high quality graphic that really stands out from the rest. Love this one so much and i hope to see many more like it.

  10. Review

     

    Another clean graphic from @Jubo,  and this is a really hot one. I love the way you did the jersey, the logo was edited in very well. What i like the most about this is how you can feel the movement of the player. As usual your text is on point,  and i like how much dimension it gives to your graphic. Thanks for another great one.

     

    9/10 amazing

    I’d love to see more recognition for non-offensive and non-“meta” builds. Unfortunately the stats for those builds are simply not available. We have hits (debatable in their own right) and SBs as our only real tangible stats that are at least saying something. An STHS V2+ engine would open the door to giveaways and takeaways at least, but at least when I was simming that wasn’t a feasible switch because the sims went insane. I can’t remember what specifically, but I think scoring and maybe penalties absolutely skyrocketed no matter what sliders were used. However, maybe with increased amounts of players and members now the sim could behave differently? Might be worth an updated test.

     

    One thing I will say is that I don’t think +\- is looked at much by anyone, and that is a grievous oversight. I think a player’s +\- compared to the rest of their team also says something. So a player with a -40 might appear bad at a glance, but if the rest of their team is -60 and everyone is getting similar minutes, suddenly that -40 looks damn impressive.

    minutes played is also an important read there are a lot of guys doing miracles with minimal time and i think that their efficiency deserves recognition.

    What Can i say that hasn't already been said? This one is just stellar, particularly the lettering. Personally i like my renders face to be a bit more of the focus but  for this the whole feel really works. You made good use of the Seattle colours and it makes sense since you have been calling it home for a while now and ppl create best from what they know. Amazing work.

     

    9.5 out of 10  because as amazing as this is i know you could rock our socks off even more. I look forward to the next one.

    ain’t no one taking that away from me!

     

    also I agree Jar-Binkle, the extra TPE doesn’t really come into use now. But still nice to have as an option I suppose 

    I’m sorry Phil i came in like a wrecking ball and stole ur schtick lol 

     

    and you and @JardyB10 do better than me as i just cave in and review @Jubo every week; just pumping up his creative ego. I mean, after 3 years of teaming up doing gm/agm endeavours together I honestly don’t think we could offend each other if we wanted to. lol In other words I’m a hypocrite and review despite knowing there are issues with that system and process regardless of my justifications but it’s easier than pumping out another graphic or even writing something that’s just uninspired.

    I’m generally a big proponent of switching things up and doing new things, both in the VHL and in life! I box myself into podcasts because they fit into my schedule a lot easier and I have fun doing them, but I used to be exclusively a Media Spot guy.

     


    You hit the nail on the head in this podcast, never be afraid to think outside of the box in this league! :cheers:

     

     

    You forgot that they are worth more as a vhl.com and we are both lazy bums lol.

     

    I might be the worst podcast personality we got but it’s worth more for a lesser time commitment and for me that’s what it adds up to.

     

    I can’t say it enough how much you’re enjoyment comes through in what you do. We are so lucky to have ya Jardy.
