Also when you paste something there’s a dialogue that appears at the bottom asking if you’d like to paste in plain text.

You want a better throne: stop demanding expansions

Ah the joy of S62 haha

Auto-lines with BU goalie in and make sure to swap your position. Gotcha

He just doesn’t care for building through the draft I think, prefers to work with trades and free agency.

You clearly aren’t very familiar with @Devise haha

We’ve said several times if players want to forgo TC and have it be removed to stay down we’ll accommodate that but we need to hear from the players.

I’ve won twice in a row without having any clue what I’m doing so might as well try again.

Welcome to the VHL, Dominus89! 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, anything posted after will be adjusted. GM’s can include notes with their lines to let me know where they’d like new players and whatnot.

I could be wrong but I believe @Quik is referring to Chico’s contract, not your backup. Without signing Chico you’re dead on as you said. It’s signing him that’s the issue.

Pretty sure @Quik just said if they want to forgo the TC TPE we can remove it from them and they can choose to stay down.

Doesn't really change anything but I'll look into it. I'll try and remember to change that.

INDEX @VHL GM Please look over your rosters and let me know of any issues ASAP. Please also send your lines in; the goal is to start the season tomorrow. An overall note for this season as well. Standings on the portal are slightly misleading. They list it in conferences HOWEVER they do not account for crossover playoffs which will be manually adjusted for at the end of the season. So we may hit the end and see teams listed as "Eliminated" who are actually in based off overall standings.

Davos, Riga, NY, Vancouver so actually 4 but yeah, still not half.

Davos also has 500k less, just something to keep in mind. I know @ShawnGlade was concerned about signing his draftees. @Spade18 fix your shit.

That was my thinking. Pre-season will add at least 2 days before we can get going and doesn't really offer much. I feel like the majority would prefer to start the season tomorrow rather than Thursday.

Indexes will go up today for both the VHL and VHLM. Unless @VHL GM 's or @VHLM GM 's heavily care we will likely skip Pre-season to save ourselves a couple of days and get the season started tomorrow. @Victor Could you please do a final post-draft check to make sure caps are all being met before the season? As has been the story of this off-season, a weird portal bug is stopping me from distributing Prediction Points but we're working on that. New ones will open when old ones are distributed. If it goes into the season a bit that's okay. On account of the draft being late training camps will remain open until the end of the week to allow for newly drafted players to take part.

Basically. All the 6 were close, the top 4 were ridiculously close.

You have no idea how close Malmo actually was.

Proportional is important to a point but it will always favour players with lower overall totals. Someone who has 20 points could score 40 and they got 100% better but that’s not as big of an improvement as someone going from 50 to 100 which is also a 100% improvement. Take your argument on hits for example. Svoboda’s jump is insane proportionally, over a 700% improvement. But that’s only because he was so low with 7 hits. His total, 51, isn’t actually that impressive. Both need to be considered, we can’t just look at proportional improvement and say “yup, this guy is better. He still did worse but he was shittier before.” There’s also an argument to be made for the fact that breaking the 100 point barrier, for example, is harder than breaking the 1 PPG barrier. Svoboda has a case, I don’t deny it. However Dahlberg’s jumps are kinda more impressive; at least in the opinion of the award committee. Ultimately it’s “most improved” but it’s still one of the subjective awards because people still need good seasons. We can’t just say “this guy went from 1 point to 10 so that’s 1000% better, he wins.” You still need to have a good season and ultimately Svoboda’s season was more average. He went from terrible to average, his competition went from bad to great.

Knowing my playoff luck of late: probably

A correction on the All-VHL teams. Both First and Second teams were lumped together when they should be separated. All-VHL First Team, which may claim 2 TPE, consists of: F - Oyorra Arroyo F - Veran Dragomir F - Beau Louth D - Maxim Kovalchuk D - Robert Malenko G - Kallis Kriketers All-VHL Second Team, which may claim 1 TPE, consists of: F - Sebastian Ironside F - Elias Dahlberg F - Matt Thompson D - Shawn Glade D - Tzuyu G - Roger Sterling
