Beketov

I miss-remembered and therefore apologize. I still think you benefited from a FO loving Committee though and having more goals, more points, better defensive numbers, and the same quality squad around me should have done it.

An award you completely swayed the committee onto you to get despite having a worse season than me but being a centre.

You just can’t accept me being better than you for the last 3 seasons can you?

The joys of manually posting. I’ll fix it.

Welcome to the VHL, Robotastic! 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!

Yeah, was hoping to finally be rid of that but it seems likely it’ll get surpassed haha. Maybe I won’t also hold third at least.

The forum was still up until a few years ago. The wayback machine has a few versions of it (I’ve posted the link on here before somewhere) but you can’t go into any of the topics unfortunately.

Stop talking to yourself Beaviss, it’s embarrassing.

I've got a HoF ballot to solidify so if you could like, not, that would be great.

@Jubo07 if you could just be content with your Szat trophy and not come steal my Brooks that would be great.

You did but each prediction was only 0.5 and you got Bronze and the MVP wrong.

Technically it was a “third strike” which is why it was so severe. The logic was a first infraction would be 1 week, a 2nd would be a month, and a 3rd would be a full season. Not entirely terrible of an idea, minus that it was flushed out after I was “caught” (which again, the rules were fuzzy on). The issue was more that they decided (they being the mob that the announcement attracted, the blue team was actually aiming to be more lenient) since I had been caught with 3 sigs that counted as 3 infractions not 1. So I lost all 3 of those plus the full season. The VHL was the Wild West back then. This shit was announced without even having a punishment in mind and they basically let the masses decide it. By the time I even got home to defend myself the conversation was 18 pages deep and I was the Anti-Christ. Honestly I’m kinda surprised I stuck through it as well, kudos to @scotty (forgot he actually had an account on this forum, was just checking with the tag haha) for actually talking me into staying. I pretty much had thrown in the towel and said fuck it, if they want me out I’ll leave, but he dragged me back in. Took probably 5 more seasons to get most of the board back accepting me, another 6 maybe to cut the annoying jokes out. We were not a nice or forgiving bunch back then. Frankly I’m kinda glad the original board is gone these days because going back and reading that punishment announcement is actually disturbing how ruthless people were.

How about the fact that his stats were comparable to the other S1 HoF goalies despite having a season without updating? Sharpe was a scapegoat for the league; a bit of muscle flexing to prove they meant business. The model used to punish me has never been used since and likely never will be again.

The Blues and Raptors winning showcase this exact problem beautifully I would say. These are two teams winning their first ever championships, it should be huge. Back in the day each would have probably had 10 pages of discussion with basically live play by play. Instead what do we have? 2 posts, total. 1 of those being @CoachReilly complaining about a lack of Raptors posts. I get that it was in the discord but the game literally started at 10pm for me last night, I was long asleep before it was done. I could go scroll through the discord and see what was discussed (in a rambling and non-organized fashion) but there’s really no point adding to that conversation now because it’s over. Good topics on the forum used to last for days or weeks with 50+ different people all talking about the same thing. Now we have 2 major sporting events happen in the same week and we get absolutely no lasting discussion on the matter. I thought up the debate series and presented it to the VSN as a way of getting people talking, @Matt_O ran with it and did a great job IMO but clearly starting with this one made one big mistake: it asked people to discuss something on the forum without offering TPE for it. I just don’t get how the VHL can be thriving more than it ever has while also getting basically 0 discussion. Discord may be great for quick answers but it’s terrible IMO for any conversation that you actually want to have continue and that as an overall hurts the community. The forum is the lifeblood of the league, it shouldn’t be used as just a means to acquire TPE.

It’s literally what I got a full season PT ban for in Season 1. Learn your VHL history
