Welcome to the VHL, Grum! We're happy to have you. You should have received a PM with some more detailed information, but to get started quickly you will want to head over to the "How to Create a Player" topic. That topic will offer you detailed information about how to use the VHL Portal to create your player and get you started. We also highly recommend joining the VHL Discord where there is a channel dedicated to helping new members with any questions that they may have about the league or improving their player. Once your player is made VHLM General Managers will be in touch with you about joining their teams. In the meantime, please feel free to ask any questions you have here or in your create-a-player thread. We're happy to have you in the community and we hope you stick around!

I don’t know what you all are talking about, quick works perfectly fine

Was in our pile of changes from the beginning of the season.

I mean the lottery isn’t based on comments anymore so... ?

They don’t even do anything for that as far as I’m aware. Pretty sure we just set it up that own conference and own division = 8 games and other conference = 5 games so divisions do nothing but give us an easier way to look at things. As for the actual poll: I voted no for a simple reason, the sample size. This is a single season and while it is a particularly unbalanced one that’s not normal. We’ve had crossover playoffs the last 2 or 3 seasons and it has never come up because usually the conferences kinda sort themselves out balance wise. Just so happens that this season the top 4-5 teams of the league were all in one conference. It’ll happen now and again but on the whole that won’t be the case.

@jRuutu not ready to give up the Szat quite yet I guess haha

I just switched FA off and trade deadline on. Meant to do that on Wednesday when the deadline passed but been busy. Thanks for the reminder.

Honestly the idea is solid but there’s no real way to execute it. The code is all pretty locked down by my understanding and all sims and rating updating is done manually (the latter being only a few clicks but still). STHS isn’t built to be run on a server which would be required for something like this. It also is incredibly unpredictable sometimes so there’s next to no guarantee you’d even get the same kind of results in a real environment. I’m not saying it’s completely impossible but I can’t fathom a way we would make it.

It can smell however you want. I’m just as confused as you.

Told you not to throw the party just yet.

Huge win! Also, point #800 on the career, my third goal for the season completed.

Beat Vancouver 7-2 then get shutout by NY. Da Fuq.

Yeah, my shooting percentage is kinda unreal. I’m not taking many shots at all but I’m scoring at my usual pace. A few sims ago when I was tied in goals with last season I noticed that I did it with 273 shots less. It’s kinda mind boggling and I’m honestly confused how I’m shooting so well.

How in the hell does a team only record 3 shots all game? The VHLM is weird haha

You had a decent game against a weak team. Don’t go throwing yourself a party yet buddy.

Wow we 100% should not have won this one with that shot differential and a backup goalie in net.

Awaiting confirmation from @Josh of approval on the portal.

Meant to add this update for the GM's but forgot so I'll add it now, it's only 1 sim late. Here is where you all stand in regards to backup starts. Calgary: 4/8 DC: 15/8 New York: 13/8 Seattle: 8/8 Toronto: 3/8 Vancouver: 6/8 Davos: 8/8 Helsinki: 4/8 Malmo: 1/8 Moscow: 18/8 Prague: 10/8 Riga: 8/8 As a note, these might not be completely accurate. A few teams have traded or released goalies so it's kinda hard to tell at this point if everything is accurate. I know DC and Moscow are listed higher than they should be though both definitely have enough. It'll be more obvious come the end of the season but if GM's want to be sure to avoid punishment they should check the starts of players they traded or released to showcase that they had played them prior. @VHL GM

409! I'm officially the sole owner of 4th place all time in goals. No chance of hitting 3rd since I think I'd need like 30 more goals but I don't mind having the most goals since S10. Maybe I'll start sharing a bit now.

You also aren’t being forced to do anything. No GM NEEDS to take their own player. If they want to that’s their choice. They also don’t HAVE to put the claim in, they can just draft themselves normally without it. However that runs the risk of someone else taking them.

1 more goal to put me as solo owner of 4th place will be the most anyone has scored since Szatkowski and he retired in S10 which is crazy.
