Stretching the win streak to 5, putting us second in the conference. 4 more points and 8 more hits for me. This is the kinda sim I like to wake up to.

You posted it though. Per the rules of the league that means you are claiming it’s your work when it clearly isn’t. If you can find shit with proof that other people are doing it they’ll receive punishment as well but low effort and plagiarism aren’t the same thing. This is plagiarism, period.

You are seriously missing the point. Adding a few filters doesn’t make it yours. You didn’t make the original graphic. It doesn’t matter how much you change it, you still didn’t make it. If I took a graphic from @gorlab and slapped new text on it I wouldn’t call it mine.

Do you ah e proof that was premade and all they did was add 1 filter? While that is pretty simple it’s not taking someone else’s work, slapping a few logos on it, and calling it your own. That would be plagiarism.

More of this type of sim please! Huge wins! Plus I’ll never be upset about 4 points and 15 hits in 2 games.

I don’t think you quite understood what you were told or someone drastically misled you because to be original VHL content you can’t just be taking premade content that other people have created, adding 2 logos, and calling it your own.

@Jtv123 I gotta side with @Enorama on this, do you have an explanation? Or better yet a PSD to prove it was your creation? Looking at it at face value I see a graphic being found and having a premade team bar and a few logos strapped onto it. That would be the plagiarism and not allowed in the slightest.

We’re losing to Davos now? Oof. At least I remembered how to score again.

1 assist in 3 games and 2 of those were blowout losses, that is definitely not what I like to see. Also @Mr_Hatter I was willing to forgive the Toronto game since we allowed 56 shots but I can’t make excuses for the Malmo game....

The franchise has been around since S6 or something along those lines, we’re long past the 50th.

THANK YOU There are teams with legitimately bad logos that we are working our way through (Ottawa’s that wasn’t really a Lynx, Calgary’s Derp horse, etc) but we aren’t just gonna up and change every logo. Rebrands aren’t really a common thing.

@Devise accidentally missed these three

Man I have really forgotten how to score, line chemistry must have gone wonky this season. Oh well. I’ll tKe 2 assists and a W at least

@Will @Josh Why is this in VHLM?

Man I really have forgotten how to score haven’t I? I’ll take 3 assists in 2 games I guess.

Lose to LA, beat Vancouver. Simon are you drunk?

They can 100% trade for themselves, they aren’t being told that they can’t get themselves at all post-draft.

You seem to think I’m speaking in hypotheticals. Basically every GM who has been part of BOG discussion on the matter at one point or another has said they would gladly jump ship to their own team. It’s not a matter of trying to give them fewer options (it used to be they were locked to their own team, doing this offered them actually MORE freedom), it’s a matter of trying to make sure they don’t just screw each other at the first possible instance.

Tbh I brought it up for discussion before this past draft but a bunch of other stuff came up and we didn’t get it finalized in time.

Regular players have no incentive outside of their own personal goals. GM’s obviously have team goals to consider. If FA is allowed three draft is just a formality. Get drafted somewhere, play three years, and then hop to your own team for your prime years without having to pay for them at all.

It was considered but ultimately we felt like that still means a lot of judging quality of GM players unfairly. Some may be a top 8 guy but some might not. Having them be in the market as any other player would be means the market dictates their value, not the rules.

Completely disagree. Native pick puts a massively unfair advantage into teams doing well because their native pick is lower in the draft. If 1 team gets last and another wins the cup but both GM’s are getting a player in the next draft the team that got last needs to use 1st overall for their player and the team that won the cup uses 16th. It’s inherently unfair.

If you win the cup and have your player in the next draft you’re still getting a guaranteed high earner at 16th. The fairest system is to treat them as any other player would be: if you want them and you don’t think your pick is high enough to make it happen then trade up for them.

And we’ll fix them when they do. If we tried to close up every hypothetical situation with every rule change nothing would ever get done.

Mmmmm, meatloaf
