Condition will not be met as Ironhide has signed with Davos for S95

Straight to LA/Davos/Helsinki/Warsaw

1. I honestly can't remember the last time I sat down to properly watch a movie other than Pulp Fiction with my roommate this year, and Oppenheimer last year. So probably Oppenheimer. 2. Most of them do, even if I don't know the original source, the effort and content that gets added is pretty funny. 3. I do not, but I've gotten some rides on friends' Harley's. 4. Yeah fuck Simon, what's new. We'll keep tweaking stuff until something works long-term. 5. I agree, I think it's just been a very rough patch with some unfortunate sim luck. 6. At what loss threshold should the Moscow GM get fired?

Resolved

Trade is going to be reworked, please don't process for the sim @MexicanCow123

I went to India v Ireland yesterday was fun! And USA won today too, 2-0 in group stage so far which is pretty exciting

Agreed, some freak named "Ryan" says he's commish

I just wanted to make sure I could scam WAR in the S90's

No shot lol, I'm pretty sure you only asked once when I already had an AGM and wanted me to fire them

He should AGM for me, then he'd tear up the league with the unlocked potential. Surprised that it never worked out that way in the past. Accurate, if I lose another finals as a player or GM I'm stepping down. This is my 13th reason, the worst sentence I've ever read about myself

Glad this meme popped up on reddit and reminded me of your post.

Ignore the horny haters

not again

@asteria do you understand anything about the VHL yet? I definitely don't get anything about the VHL or STHS yet. Weird ass sim engine, weird ass league. CGY undefeated is pretty insane to see, props to them for getting to this point after a rough few seasons of immense underperformance. Lets see how long that all lasts though. Portal pushed out some interesting changes, and I've gotten to see some of the work in action from behind the scenes. Definitely love what @Will is doing, some of the upcoming changes look pretty sick too. How long until I cross 150 words, jesus. Moscow is existing, figuring out how to turn our league leading Shots For into some goals. 5th in GF isn't bad but if we're not dominating games, then it's a rough spot to be. Syko is absolute trash though, that's just depressing again. The Pro-AM was some nice confidence, but then now the season start has absolutely tanked all that confidence. Hopefully he can sim well again at some point in the future. Lastly, Asteria is racist confirmed.

Bro wants to be punted into a different dimension, the masochistic tendencies are nuts here

Better start discussing that pending UFA status too, buddy!

I expect some spicier .com names now that you're on Moscow

As much as I hate BMTH giving fans a 2 year blue ball for their album and surprise dropping it last night, I'm pretty happy with the album. Things I am also pretty happy with are the moves Moscow made in the offseason. The draft process was pretty neat, managing to bundle up our various 1st and 2nd rounders to secure 1oa and 2oa in the draft, resulting in snagging both @jacobcarson877 and @leandrofg. Both of them were pretty unanimously the top selections in the class and frankly probably the current next best earners after, modestly, myself. I will admit that Syko's earning through uncapped is a bit lower than Pearce's, so I don't anticipate setting records again. Being a goalie meant I had to pay a bit more attention to my cost. But if there were people to break my record, I think either Jacob or Leandro could pull it off - so I'd love it if they break my record while playing for me. For the S94 season, we also managed to finalize the roster with a trade for Steve Lattimer @pugsood, which might just be the longest trade talks I've had as a VHL GM. Maybe there's others that took more time due to on and off negotiations, but this was probably the longest time I was directly engaged in chatting with one team continuously. I'd rather never have talks go that long if I'm being honest. But we ended up getting who we wanted, even if there was a fairly large domino effect of trades needed to make it happen. Also managed to bring up Petit Hughie, @osens, one of our former 2nd round selections. We'll have two rookies on the blue line between Hughie and Benjamin Abenduct @Schnee, but I think our defense is solid enough where we can pair these defensively minded rookies with our offensively talented stars. Anyways yeah pretty excited for this next season, we've got a fantastic forward group, some solid defense pairings, maybe a goalie. We'll see how it goes but there's definitely high expectations.

Mentioned it on discord so I'll say it here as well, this has been a policy in place since the current waiver system has been a thing. It's not banning a GM from talking to new players, it's just ensuring that any discussions you have with new players are strictly to welcome them to the league and assist if they need assistance. Intentionally trying to position yourself to curry their favor and influence their waiver decision is what we're trying to dissuade, as that just takes away the point of the current system. We've long been reminding GMs to be welcoming new users and being available to assist in the main server because they're still encouraged to be part of the initial engagement process.

Good idea tbh, will begin working on that one

When can we open a job posting for your replacement?
