  1. Hearing Jerome Midson @MexicanCow123 is being shopped around the VHL's eastern conference. This is following the Wranglers have been struggling with paying the expensive salary for a below average goalie, seeing a massive drop off from their "award winning" season. Malmo Nighthawks are rumoured to the be the most interested team, as the retoolers look to return to the glory they achieved last season. The trade that makes the most sense is Midson and Thor Odinson heading to Malmo in exchange for Ash Sparks and Yaroslav Bogatyrev.

     

    Also hearing former #BRAT Kimi Raikkonen will be on the move from the Riga Reign, with the Moscow Menance being a party to keep an eye on. The rebuilding Reign are rumoured to be looking to drop some of the forwards they've drafted and developed, and the Menance are looking for a strong discount forward to help round out the future of the organization. Not sure on the return, as Riga is hesitant to move on from the dynamic forward this early in their career. Looking for a first and a sweetener, such as prospect Olumide Anderson or Petit Hughie.

  2. I agree theirs simply no comparison, one post actually contributes to the league and the other is a simple notification being clicked. Art is in the eye of the beholder (or in this case, @OrbitingDeath )!

     

    But the music - oh the music! If only the other graphic was exported as a webm as well.

  3. Recently I had a claim be denied by the updaters despite there being a user of similar skill set (mostly writing for PTs, very rare to do graphics) get a related post approved. In fact, the post that was made was straight inspired by theirs, I even tagged them in my post! This, among other problems that I've seen infecting the VHL, has gotten me thinking about how unfair and downright rigged the system is against most users. If you're not friends with people that will push your updates through for you, despite a PT needing to be denied/edited/etc, then your post will be left to rot in the queue until someone with enough GUTS will decline it, usually on Sunday afternoon, so you don't have time to create a replacement for the TPE you expected to earn. I've even heard stories of "flagged" updates being approved by updaters that DO NOT have clearance to do so. When I was an updater, the flag means an updater thinks it demands the attention of the Head of PT, DaaD for me and v.2 for these noob updaters, to make a final decision on the post.
