  1. GG @STZ Go get that 2 ssns of donation fam. Finals should be a classic.

  4. it's actually elvish tunic from LOTR.
  5. 1) If every member of the VHL were dropped into a battle royale map like the Hunger Games, who do you think would win and why? I believe the winner would be elite-level street fighter Robbie Zimmers. He'd have everything to win prepared before hand. 2) If you had to be stuck on an island with one VHL member, who and why? I don't know of any survival enthusiasts on VHL, so I'm going to go with JardyB10. I feel like he would be resourceful and his farmer training could be helpful. 3) Should locker rooms be on the top or bottom of the VHL forum? IMO they should be on top. I find myself sort of neglecting the LR since it's all the way at the bottom, but I don't want to make anyone alter it for me. 4) What is an unpopular opinion on something that you have? US President Donald Trump isn't an idiot. 5) If I gave you $5 for free to bet on any team to win the cup, would you pick Moscow or someone else? I'd probably put it on Calgary tbh. Commish/Simmer rig potential is high. 6) What is your favorite joke? I can never remember sociable jokes, so I'll go with the coffin/funeral dance meme that has become popular recently.
  6. So Helsinki got Okada and they're good now??? fml
  7. Just wanted to showcase some of 701's work, for those who weren't around for his time being active here / on other leagues. Really underrated graphics guy and he taught me a lot and helped me progress as far as I have from scratch. I'll never forget when he taught me Filter > Distort > Ripple.... The rest is history. Son was nice with it, without a doubt. RIP MY GUY!!! and a couple sigs I dug up where he and I collabed... I dont think these were the final versions, but it's all I could find: RIP
  8. I'm sure some of you already have heard the news but a former VHL member, and long-time sim league community member, David Theusch aka @701 passed away on Monday, April 13th. He was only 24 years old and his passing was tragic and unexpected. David was a bit of a polarizing member who was never afraid to speak his mind and bring his thoughts/suggestions to the community. This rubbed some people the wrong way but also endeared many people to him. Speaking from my own experience, Dave was a genuinely caring and friendly guy who, like most of us, used sim leagues as an escape from the tedious grind of day-to-day life. He was always down to chat about anything and was fiercely loyal to his friends. Although he hasn't been active on VHL for the past couple of years, he was an important and active member when he was here. He was a very underrated graphic designer and loved to represent his hometown of Minot, ND, playing a pivotal role in establishing/rebooting the Minot Gladiators VHLM franchise. I'm making this post in honour of his memory. Dave was somebody who, although I never met in real life, talked with very regularly. There was a good period of time where he and I spoke every day. He had a great sense of humour and was just very easy to talk to and was a major influence in helping me, and others, learn how to make graphics. He was always willing to help, give advice, or just shoot the shit. Over the past couple of years, as we got older and more irl responsibility took up our time, we slowly lost touch and the news of his passing hit me pretty hard. I truly regret not reaching out and catching up with him when I had the opportunity to do so. Regardless of knowing 701 or not, please feel free to pay your respects or post any memories of him you have in this thread. Also, I want this post be a reminder that, even though most of us have never, and will never, meet each other in real life, real human connections are made between members in our community and to be thoughtful of this. Let people know you care about them and that they've brought a positive influence to you and your life. RIP David Theusch. You were always a real one and a guy I'm proud to consider a friend. You will be missed. I'm also including a link to a memorial fund that was setup to support his family and help alleviate the financial burden of his passing and funeral. If you have ability, please consider donating to his memorial gofundme page: Here.
  9. I will confirm that v2 looks superior to me. ty ty
