Aww schucks, you’re too kind

He’s a worthless scrub but you refuse to accept that because in your head large amounts of TPE automatically must correlate with aim success despite that not being the case?

Welcome to the squad @oilmandan!

Yeah I discovered that a few weeks ago haha. Also Rift definitely kept this one closer than it had any right to be.

How does Seattle have our fucking number so hard this season.

Usually with stuff like this and @Will‘a players he’s testing portal stuff.

Hard to win when you’re down 4-0 and need to come back, surprised we made it close. Nice to see our PK working at least.

You underestimate how desperate we were for active GM’s.

There’s a nice breakout game for me.

Originally I changed it with the intention of changing my username to match my player name every time. However Beketov was such a good player and all my others were such disappointments that it just kinda stuck haha

Same way I’ve gotten every player name after Sharpe. Pick country of origin, look of popular first and last names in that country, decide on a combination that I find sounds good.

You literally missed it by a minute, sorry bud. You can correct that in your lines for tomorrow.

Please note That this puts Minnesota over the roster limit. For that reason these players have been left scratched until such time as @Rayzor_7 corrects it.

Honestly a cup drought doesn’t even automatically make for a stigma. I’m not sure what exactly it was with Vasteras that did it, maybe we were all just bigger assholes back then.

They won the cup in S1 (potentially via shady means but nothing was ever proven) and then proceeded to have a 25 season cup drought and I think only win like 1 other after that. In a lot of ways they were the laughing stock of the league which gave them a poor reputation and made people resistant to playing for them. They were thus relocated but to a very dumb place (Madrid) and were subsequently moved back a few seasons later which kinda just made it worse because it made them even more of a joke that even moving couldn’t fix them. Eventually they were moved again and became the Stockholm Vikings who did a bit better at getting people on boats but no better sim wise and the team remained more or less cursed before eventually being, effectively, contracted when we went back down to 8 teams. Basically people just liked to laugh at them and they’ve had 2 chances in the VHL to prove that stigma wrong and a VHLM stint as well. At this point bringing them back is just a bad look because it’s been a failed experiment so many times already.

We had plenty more over the years but more and more started being moved to or expanding to NA. Oslo was just the last to move. Point is it wasn’t “traditionally North American” at all. It’s only been North American only for a few seasons.

I’m not interested in bringing any team back but for the logo alone I’d bring the Vikings back long before Vasteras.

I will fucking ban your ass

The VHLM has only been a North American League for a few seasons. Up until we moved Oslo to Minnesota it was global. Also Vasteras, as @Victor mentions, has literally failed in both leagues already and can go rot. There’s no reason to every bring back that train wreck.

That’s better. not sure how we scrape by Seattle and dominate Davos but whatever.
