Honestly last season was what like a year and a half ago? That’s well outside the spoiler window IMO. I’d say anything S8 should be spoiler tagged but 1-7 is fair game.

The expansion announcement from last season specifically mentioned that starting with S66 there would be a VHLM lotto. I think the regulations on it are changing from the new expansion so maybe that’s what you’re thinking of?

1. It hasn’t been live any time I’ve done it; usually I just record it. 2. Between work and the holiday weekend I have no time to record it. Only time I could do it was at work on my lunch break. Can’t record there.

I’ll be expecting my payment soon then?

I blame you. Though I mostly meant there’s things we all have to complain about. I don’t think having a top 5 pick in the best drafts we’ve potentially ever seen is a huge problem.

And while you’ve been GM I’ve never made the finals. We all have our gripes

Is that even really a spoiler? Shit happened last season haha

I mean yeah, that one was rough. But most years you’ve had even or worse odds. It’s like saying the slot machine hates you when really you aren’t likely to win.

Probably not. Also your odds have historically not been great so it’s not like you’re always losing when you’d expect to win. Like last season you only had a 10% chance of winning it. You do tend to get jumped over pretty often though.

The site does have a spoiler feature so just use that.

Just a note: they were correct in the draw but I messed up the odds in the post for the VHL so I have corrected that.

S66 VHL & VHLM Draft Lotteries Tuesday, April 16th, 12:40PM EST Welcome everyone to the S66 draft lotteries! Unfortunately because of time constraints this year I was unable to actually record the lotteries so this is gonna be a pile of images; let's get to it. Let's start with the Expansion Lotteries! First up, the VHL expansion also known as "where will Malmo slot into the draft order." This one was nice and simple between 5 and 10 so the number that was drawn is where they will draft: Results - Malmo Placement 7TH OVERALL GM - @Advantage ---------- Next up, the VHLM Expansion with 3 teams so we need to figure out the order they will draft in which also sets the positions they will draft in the regular draft. Here is the setup representing which numbers are associated with which teams: Followed by the 2 draws in order: Results - VHLM expansion Draft 1st: Mississauga (GM - @GustavMattias) 2nd: San Diego (GM - @InstantRockstar) 3rd: Mexico City (GM - @Nykonax) ---------- Keeping with the VHLM we've got a full draft lottery for them this year. Here are the teams involved and their respective numbers based on the odds of them winning: Followed by the first draw: With that draw the numbers for #2 needed to be adjusted to reflect now having even odds which they were: followed by the 2nd draw: Results - VHLM Draft Lottery VHLM DRAFT ORDER 1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chance to Win the 1st Overall Pick - 30% - 30% - 30% - 10% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ General Managers - @BladeMaiden - @Esso2264 - @Peace - @oilmandan ---------- Last but certainly not least the VHL Draft! Here are the teams involved and their respective numbers based on the odds of them winning: Followed by the first draw: With that draw the numbers for #2 needed to be adjusted to reflect now having even odds which they were: followed by the 2nd draw: Results - VHL Draft Lottery VHL DRAFT ORDER 1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chance to Win the 1st Overall Pick - 30% - 25% - 25% - 20% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ General Managers - @Victor - @ShawnGlade - @Bushito - @Beaviss

Not anymore since 4 teams don’t make the playoffs. Was mentioned in the expansion thread last season.

Do they have a pick in it? I thought they held NY’s?

Just had to re-open that wound for me too didn’t you 4 Victory cups with Seattle now and 0 finals appearances outside of my final season with Beketov way back when.

Not live it is! I’ve got far more time to do that so it makes more sense. I’ll do it tomorrow.

Well that doesn’t bode well for me.

Lord knows I try.

That is the question. Historically I have done lottos live but I don’t have a ton of free time right now to record it. I can pretty easily do the lotto and post the results but setting up the recording is a lot more difficult. So, do people really care if it’s live? If you don’t really that much I can do the lotto at lunch tomorrow when I sim. If you do then it’ll have to be some time later.

Pretty sure wingers are treated more or less the same. If our HoF is any indication though centres perform better.
