I mean he wasn’t banned or anything but he retired his players and kicked every admin off the Facebook page so yeah, he’s gone. He’s welcome to come back if he wants but I’m not sure when or if that will happen.

A Way Too Early Mock Draft - Picks 6-11 [1/2]
Beketov replied to Tagger's topic in Archived Media Spots
In the future I’d prefer if you ask in advance but yeah, that’s fine. -
1. What prompted you to come back? I’d ask what prompted you to leave but I know the answer to that. 2. What changes have you seen since returning that you like the most / the least? 3. You got drafted but not signed by Riga, making you a free agent. What are the odds you jump to a different team in the off-season?

Welcome to the VHL, T65! 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 an get you started. 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!

Finish the season as we have so many times... by being shut out.
-
Yeah, he will need to wait until after Agency opens and will be a free agent at that time.

The comparison mostly stems from the fact that both were at each other’s throats at the time. When this was written it was basically impossible to discuss possible punishment for Boubabi without Kendrick being part of the equation because they were usually the ones openly arguing. To give context we were trying to find a balance. We knew that Boubabi was being banned (I believe this was slightly after it occured) but we were trying to figure out the best course of action to take with those of whom he had squabbled. In large part people were defending themselves against Boubabi, Kendrick included, but in small parts people were also getting him going on purpose or otherwise pushing his buttons to get the reaction they knew was coming so that Boubabi would be banned. It was a complicated situation and while I will never back down on my standpoint that a solid portion of blame needed to be put on Boubabi I can’t pretend Kendrick was innocent either. He knew what he was doing. He would get Boubabi riled up, get into an argument, and then complain that we weren’t doing anything about it. Problem is that his actions made everything more complicated because in his mind he was the victim so he couldn’t be at fault. Meanwhile, from the league’s perspective, we saw two aggressors, even if one was worse, and could t simply side with whomever came running to us first. Long story short, it was complicated but there are definitely reasons the comparison was made, even if it was never 100% fair.

Odd, I remember it being 20 for some reason. Given that I’ll allow it, even through it is a little short. Let’s just try not to make a habit out of it shall we @der meister? Also, have you ever liked any change, damn For the record the main reason we wanted the change is two fold: first that the old method was far more work for updaters when really the portal can handle everything far cleaner and easier. 2nd that updates took longer to get into the sim, Requiring manually updating all the stats which took several hours and couldn’t realistically be done as often. We can now get updates in as often as we want in under 5 minutes. So yes, you aren’t immediately putting your points into your attributes but, in the end, it actually probably goes into the sim faster because you aren’t waiting a week for an updater to apply those points and then potentially another week or more for them to hit the sim. The complaint about needing to use a different site is fair, it’s the exact reason I dislike discord. Hopefully one day the two will be able to be merged but sadly we are not yet at that point.

This is the same (short) file as your podcast from last week?
-
If this has already been approved in your updates I’m sorry to say that it should probably be re-looked at. As per the regulations podcasts are supposed to be, at minimum, 20 minutes long. This is just shy of 8, so less than half the required time.

The cap is no tighter then it ever has been. Difference is simply that more teams are getting their rosters set at the beginning of the season now then they used to. It used to be common practice to hold off on some deals until the deadline to get those sweet cheaper players but now most just set their rosters up at the starts and hold onto them.

Stockpile My man! You only need 1 GGX per week so just post 1 per week and keep a stock of them in your back pocket for weeks you’re busier.

With only2 games left in the season it’s fairly clear the Seattle Bears will finish in last place. This alone is not particularly surprising to anyone on the team who was expecting a rough season after diving into a rebuild during the last off-season. However, even after losing most games of the season, rookie Matt Thompson was enjoying his production. While he was never going to lead rookie scoring thanks to Podrick Cast and Edwin Preencarnacion tearing up the league he was sitting just below a point per game average. That, however, has now changed. In the last 15 games of the season Thompson has disappeared, scoring only 1 goal and receiving no assists. He ow sits fourth in rookie scoring and is an astonishing 42 points back of Cast. ”Obviously I’m disappointed. I was having a pretty successful rookie season so to completely fall off the map like this stings. I’m just looking to next season right now I guess and hoping things turn around for me.” The Bears have been shutout in several of the last games which doesn’t aid things any. The Beketov agency just hopes that Thompson does turn it around. The last client of the agency, Roman Sokolov, always struggled late in the season so the agency hopes this trend will not repeat itself in Thompson. Edit: Had to type quickly on my phone, sorry for all the typos.

Man, getting shutout so much is really killing my point production.
-
So, Halifax wins then? I don’t see any new votes really. We just need to get this sorted because a logo could take a bit.
-
Finally a point. Been held without one for like 10 games, was getting annoying.

Welfare / Pension (July 16th - July 22nd)

I’m beginning to lose count of the last time I had a point ?
-
Honestly that’s also a good question. Seems more reasonable to move Oslo if all the other teams are gonna be North American.
-
Bottom left box? Do you mean the avatar? It was part of the set so I posted it as well. It’s not part of the sig haha
-
Or just go with the vote, expand into Halifax, and then move Yukon to a US city such as Denver.

All 4 lotto teams have the same odds for 1st overall, thus 25% chance. Since you can only move down 1 spot the last place team has that same 25% chance as everyone for 1st and then 75% chance at 2nd to round out their 100%. another way of looking at it would be that you’d have a 25% chance at 1st overall and, failing that, a 100% chance at 2nd overall but that’s not as clean and is a dumb way of wording it.
