It's one or the other. It used to be if you got carryover you just always applied it because you started at 0 but ever since we put starting TPE to 30 carryover has been useless if you don't have at least 30 to use. I mean technically you COULD use it, no one would stop you, but it wouldn't make a lick of sense.

Was he your last guy? Assuming you never officially retired him (thus he went 8 seasons) he would leave you with 27 carryover so you're better off with the starting TPE.

It's okay, I've been here 11 years and only have 4 over 9 completed careers. One good season and you'll beat my total.

Yeah, it's a rough time for me even and it's only gonna be 10pm. I worked early this morning and early tomorrow morning though so I'll be asleep. Gotta go with the will of when GM's are available though. Personally I feel bad for @hedgehog337

With how much hype this draft has it's amazing we never actually started this earlier, and that's a shame! Draft is tentatively set for 9EST tonight should the last couple of GM's agree. Shall we see how much hype we can generate in here until then? Predictions of the top 5 anyone?

This. Difference is they don't play the following season so they get the added benefits that the pre-season guys don't have. Basically we want to further distinguish that if you get to keep your player around longer you have to lose a few of the perks that trade deadline guys get on account of them not having an extra season.

No, doubles weeks count on PT's and affiliate PT's are considered as welfare, not as PT's. Tot are advantage of Doubles week's, be they from donations or anything else, a VHL PT must be used.

Well yeah but Street went up too so what’s the point Edit; nevermind, closing the gap!

Constant until the day after the draft and then nothing major between the draft and the start of the season 3-4 days later. Spacing things out actually keeps the flow better than lumping everything together. Some seasons it also it basically right after. Just depends when the draft falls.

Yeah, Imma blame Windows. Never had the issue on my phone or my Macs.

It was designed around the pre-season. Not really sure if the logic itself for waiting that extra week but that’s why it’s at the end of the off-season because it’s supposed to happen right before the season starts. We have just been ignoring the actual pre-season sim lately.

I need to remember to do trivia more. I don’t need the capped weekly stuff really (though it couldn’t hurt) but I always forget about the uncapped stuff at the end.

I’ll take 6. It’s not amazing but it’s a lot better than I thought I did. Yet more uncapped stuff @street is managing to beat me in though haha. I may be able to hit that cap more often but that man’s uncapped potential is crazy.

Thompson goes 1st Cast goes 4th, both play in Seattle. Now that would be something haha.

Cornerstone is retired.

Very minor announcement going into Season 61. Training Camps will no longer be done for players the way they always have been. Instead of skaters being forced to use certain attributes that are chosen by their GM's, they will receive the same +10 TPE (for anything) that goalies have always received. Training Camps still need to be posted in to make the claim in order to keep everyone honest but players may use their points on whatever they want. If any training camps have been posted / claimed already they can be adjusted for this new rule.

Was wondering why I wasn’t doing anything. I assume @Banackock never sent lines in?

Pyramid schemes ?

Note my edit, I added a lot.

That’s what people said last time. Honestly yes, P2 was optional but basically everyone took up that option and we lost a lot of long time members because of it. It may be easy to say that they shouldn’t have put that much work into something that was optional but they did and they always will because that’s how VHL members are. Even with an easier workload with something like this I would foresee it happening again. P2 was not a good idea for the league, period. It didn’t really result in drastically fuller rosters like it promised so we didn’t get the benefit and we lost members because of the burnout. That’s a net loss IMO. I think our efforts would be better served focussing our attention on recruiting and retention rather than trying to find the easy way out and just splitting the members we have into more players when we have already proven that doesn’t work.

I knew I was doing well in this but damn, never expected to win it.

I said it then and I'll say it now. Holik > Dadonov :PI rod recall having an entertaining VHLM rivalry though. Shame it didn't continue into the VHL.
