The problem with this is that AGM positions seem to change every other week so with 28 teams now between the two leagues it was becoming near impossible to have any other job posting not get buried. Before we made those threads there was only 2 non-GM (or AGM) threads on the first page of job postings. It just became too much of a mess.

Or the Quebec City Meute. We moved Vancouver from Quebec City just a few seasons ago.

I’ll accept middle of the pack from @boubabi even if it’s only just above “hasn’t started”

I mean we had the bot in and haven't been playing well so not really

It's basically been done before but we never caught it. Not so much something that's "allowed" as much as something that was never noticed. We're trying to be more vigilant on it for the sake of the very unfortunate precedent it sets.

Voted 6, 3, 7 but I think I skimmed over 7 the first time around. Probably would have given 7 as my second choice and 3 as my 3rd choice.

Don’t care the reason, you can’t donate to other people. You may have legitimately lost a bet but we really have no way of knowing that so it opens a can of worms. @sterling can we get another refund please?

ARG fucking dominating the first game of the season

Bound to happen sometimes. Just email text ones and I’ll make it happen.

These came into existence after Thompson retired and before Lahtinen became less of a scrub so let’s see if I can manage to finally make it into one.

INDEX @VHLM GM Here's your index, the schedule is set so you can get your lines together. If there are any roster issues please let me know immediately and I'll get them fixed up ideally before the season starts. I did already check and you all have at least two goalies so hopefully so long as your rosters aren't super empty you should all be able to at least make lines. If not just let me know. For lines please make sure you always send to both rpower22@gmail.com and vhlsim@outlook.com Let's have a great season everyone!

So reminding you of childhood trauma is what keeps you around? Got it, perfect.

Thing is, in the past no one wanted the GM jobs so when he always applied we got a candidate with a rocky past but a lot of experience and, most importantly, interest. Now so many people want GM jobs that we really don’t need to hire someone that has flaked on us 3 times already. Candidates are readily available.

You can just claim it at the same time. It’s all uncapped anyway. Really just wanted a way to get it to 13 TPE.

@Quik gets the credit for that. He just forgot to post it.

Link to your post and claim it under “uncapped -> other -> other” when you have a PT in the same week.

Was about to ask that, I don’t think the Mercs have ever won gold. Proud to at least get silver though, wasn’t expecting much from this tournament to soon to get so close. Congrats Mercs on a big win.

You also joined this shit through e-feds? That’s how I got started. Might as well turn that into my memory as well since I don’t remember much and it’s around the right time period. Was online on this text based wrestling site that I think is still running but I can’t remember the name of and came across a link to an e-fed that was simmed in something called Zeus Pro. Shame the engine is now dead (I think) because it did an amazing job of simming and you could import and create basically any kind of match, was pretty cool. Anyway, that led me to hockey sims which led me eventually to the ESHL and then the VHL, so that’s how you fucks got stuck with me 13 years ago to the day.

As usual any job that replaces a PT can make the claim without a PT. Since there is no Triples Week option on the portal just claim as “Other”

Hey VHL @Members, Today, Saturday July 18th, the VHL becomes a teenager, as it celebrates its 13th Birthday! We opened our doors in 2007, and it's been a hell of a ride getting here, as we have grown from a group of 56 members and 8 teams, to having over 200 players, and 28 teams, between the VHL and VHLM, in Season 73. Through it all, we've seen original members, who started with the league as teenagers themselves, grow into adults with families and jobs, and we've seen new members come in with that same enthusiasm that gripped every one of us when the league began. It's been an amazing ride, and it is amazing to see the league continue to grow each, and every season! To commemorate the league's birthday, we are giving all members a Triples Week, which adds 12 Uncapped TPE to any 6-TPE Point Task (Welfare/Pension/Affiliate PT are not included), as well as a 1 Uncapped TPE claim. To claim these perks, which conveniently add up to 13 Uncapped TPE, all you need to do is post in this thread a memory you have from when you were 13. If you are not 13 yet, post something you look forward to when you turn 13. Note: This thread will remain open until 11:59PM PST on Saturday, July 25th. Birthday perks may only be claimed on one player per member Birthday perks must be claimed by Sunday, August 16th (aka before the S73 Trade Deadline)

Ah my seasonal masochism. Why not

Yeah, I get the confusion. The donation drive is a bit of a different thing than normal donations. @sterling can you hit Al and Peace up with refunds? Also @Updaters pleas keep an eye on this.

I get the disappointment and I get what you were trying to do it just sets an unfortunately very bad precedent. It isn't about the amount of money (which again, would even out) it's about the rewards. Buying rewards for other people, while kind, just sets up abilities we would rather not see. We will continue to allow it for donation drives because those are smaller rewards and for a good cause but regular donations are to be for personal use only.

And this one as well that I didn't notice. I'm not sure where this mindset is coming from that you can suddenly donate for other people but this has never been the case.

A Full donation is worth 11 uncapped if I’m not mistaken. Let’s say you buy 10 guys in your team that, pricey for you but only you. Maybe you can easily afford it. You just literally bought your team an extra 110 TPE without your members having to do anything for it. It basically makes it so that a single member with a decent amount of disposable income can greatly improve their team singlehandedly. That sets an incredibly bad precedent because the limits are put in place so that donations can not become pay to win. You pay for yourself, you get a minor bump. It’s true that those same 10 players could all pay the same amount and get the same bonus for the team but the key is that they would all need to do it themselves. 1 member with the income isn’t dictating who gets an increase.
