Review: Love this concept for a Calgary third jersey, dropping the red and going black and white. The logo looks great with the giant W and the cowboy riding in it with his lasso. Is the logo yours or did you find it somewhere? If it's yours 10/10 if you did a JC with the existing logo 8/10.

Congrats! @MexicanCow123

For next week. I'm all super punctual and shit.

HARD

1. I'd like to see a harsher update scale. Way too many players with 99 scoring and similar builds. A harsher update scale might make a player less useful with only 99 scoring. 2. More opportunities for people who make quality GFX. Maybe posters for hall of fame pages or graphics for people to include in their media spots. It would be cool to see members collaborate on point tasks. 3. Allow VHL teams to retain salaries up to 50%. Would make for more intriguing off-seasons and deadlines. Also allows rebuilding teams a better chance to get more assets for retiring or expiring players.

Review: Did you just find this card in a box, in your closet? Love the realistic vibes and the subtle touches that allowed you to achieve that. The logo swap and addition of thee VHL logo are one point. As well as the texture over the whole card which blends it so well. The Sterling Labatte text at the bottom was the best choice. This is one of the best player cards I've seen on here especially from a realism stand point. 10/10 and chef's kiss.

1. This week is the Theme Week and the topic is VHL Awards. What is your thought on that topic, is it good, bad? Are you going to do anything for the Theme Week? Theme week is a pretty meh ritual but at least it gives us a topic for a point task. Especially if you're running out of ideas. I did a little banner for Mikko Lahtinen as a member of Moscow. 2. Along with the Theme Week it is also a trade dead line coming up. Do you think we should make some trades and if so who, position or player, you want to see added or traded to the team? I think we stand pat unless there is a player who will help us for Seasons to come. That or sell of any pending UFAs. 3. The VHL is putting on another suggestion drive. So, what would you like to see change either in VHL in general or in our Locker Room? I've left thus to the last possible second but I plan on sharing my ideas by tomorrow. 4. There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there. Do you believe any of them? If so which one or what is the one conspiracy theory that you would most likely believe could be true? Most recent conspiracy theories have been either too stupid to believe, or crumble once you starr to use a bit of deductive reasoning. 5. If you would to get 1 Free Reroll on your player today and keep all of your TPA. What would you change about your player and why? I think I would remove a few points from passing and add to both puck handling and skating. Put depreciation will allow me to adjust this in future seasons. 6. If your punishment was to play one video game over and over and over for the rest of your life. What video game would you choose and why? i guess I'd play warzone, since the games are long and not much happens. Not sure I'd enjoy it for that long though.

Review: Other than stealing my idea this is a very nice graphic ;). I love how you tied in the Scotty Campbell trophy and the Moscow skyline. My only gripes are the image quality between the render, background and award. Particularly the noise over the render needs to be toned down just a touch. Also the text is pretty basic, especially with what you've done in the past. 9.5/10

Fuck. I'll blame the whisky. Let's pretend it's a typo and it really says Dustin Funk.

@Beketov

That's wild!

Review: This is a neat idea. The football jersey change and helmet logo add is nice and clean. The whole thing could use some blending as the header and render feel like a seperate entity. Maybe throwing a few stocks or textures over the entire thing, similar to the background but toned down. Overall 7/10

Review: This is one of the better sigs you've done IMO. Like that you made the moon your light source as well as the focal point to draw our eyes towards the renders face. I like the text with the choice of colouring to match the jersey as well as the off set stroke. My only real gripe would be that the lighting looks a bit pink which isn't davos related, but neither is yellow :P. Really nice job overall 9.5/10

1. We are almost half way through our season and we haven't had the best performances thus far. What do you think we need to do to turn things around or do you think we can turn things around? Honestly I think we need to build toward next season. Everyone will have a strong off season and we'll continue to develop into a contender for multiple seasons. 2. What do you do to relax in a stressful situation? Decaf earl grey sitting on a deck in front of a wood fire. During game play I usually lose my cool and take bone headed penalties. 3. Who do you think is having a great season this season? Jaromir Lemiuex is lighting it up. He'll be a big part of our success going forward. 4. What is the best NHL trade from your favorite team? Bertuzzi for Luongo. It made the Canucks a strong team for years. Was even more special to see Luongo win gold in Vancouver. 5. Would you rather win 10-9 in regulation or 1-0 in over time? 10-9 in regulation as a hockey fan. 1-0 as a fan of good team defense. 6. What would Moscow's goal song would be? Something Russian. With a quick google search I came up with Moscow Nights - The Alexandrov Ensemble.

Review: Really like the layers used on exclusion gives it a funky feel. Also the clarity and blending of the layer. This one of my favourite sigs you've done. Nothing major to squabble over, other then many some minor tweaks with render size as well as some more colour blending. 9/10

Review: One of my favourites you've made besides the one for Moreau ;). The Riga jersey change is really nice, as well as the glove and helmet add ons. I like the newspaper sort of feel with the textures you used. My only critique would be the random directions of the stocks you added some running vertically and horizontally. 9/10

1. We just acquired Aurelien Moreau from Toronto for an S80 1st and S81 2nd. What are your thoughts on the trade? Excited to be here for the next 5 seasons. Hopefully we win a lot of cups and have some laughs along the way. 2. We've been building this team up for the past few seasons, do we have all the pieces we need to be contenders? If no, what position do you think we need to bolster? I think either upgrade a few defense and forwards, or let the roster develop. Or a little of both? @Spartan has done one hell of a rebuild in short order. *slow clap* 3. We've chatted a lot about Monopoly in the locker room recently. What are some of your favorite games to play with teammates? Jenga. Sitting on Atreides patio drinking beers and playing jenga with the boys. Bob always cheats though. 4. For the third or fourth season in a row, we have a rookie in the top 3 of league-wide rookie scoring. Why do rookies just do so well in Moscow? The optimist in me wants to say all Moscow rookies are GOAT's, but the realist in me says that it's likely because we're rebuilding so they're getting big minutes, as well as having really good player builds. 5. Assess your performance so far through this season. Are you meeting your expectations? What do you want to be doing better in? Overall I'm happy, especially after the trade to a team with a win now attitude, since Toronto's rebuilding I feel like my player has a lot of areas to improve still. 6. How are you doing today? How's life going? Drop a sentence or two about what's going on in your life, I want to know what you're up to Tired. My fiance and I are currently apartment hunting in Vancouver, every tine we find something good there is either no viewings close or it gets scooped up right away.

Beautiful.
