INDEX @VHLE GM You know the drill by now, GM's are required to submit lines using the Team Management section of the portal. If you have manual requests due to roster changes please PM me your notes. Either discord or forum PM is fine. I have made sure your lines can all be made for this first set (IE no bots missing to make rosters incomplete) but please look over your rosters carefully to make sure everyone is present that should be, no one is present that shouldn't be, and everyone's position is correct. If you see any issues please notify me ASAP so it can be corrected for the first sim on Wednesday. As has been the case for a few seasons now all sims will be done live. I cannot promise you a specific time for these (though around 6:30pm EST is most likely) and, likewise, I can't promise you they will be very entertaining; in fact I can almost guarantee that they won't be. However in an effort to be more transparent with our simming you will all be able to watch me click buttons in all it's glory. I will do my best to put a message on discord whenever I go live but may forget some days. If you wish to be notified please make sure to check out the #roles channel for information on how. In any case the live sims will always be in the same place which is embedded below: Good luck to everyone this season and let's have another good one!

The simming team for S91 is: VHL: @Josh VHLE: @Beketov VHLM: @MexicanCow123 Backup: @N0HBDY @VHL GM @VHLM GM @VHLE GM

The wording on that could be more clear, in fact it’s rather outdated. Back in the day call ups were a thing so if you got called up partway through the season you wouldn’t get the full amount. Where they aren’t a thing anymore we can remove that line. Backups are on the team the full 72 games, they count.

Season 90 Experience Points Congratulations to all @Members for the completion of another successful VHL season, as well as to Prague for taking home their first Continental Cup. As always, with the season past, all VHL players have earned some more experience based on the length of their campaign. In addition, anyone who participated in the VHLM or VHLE in S90 is eligible to claim 3 Experience points. How to Claim Claim experience in the Player Management area by clicking the 'CLAIM UNCAPPED' button, select Off-Season, then select Experience from the dropdown. Enter the amount of Experience you are eligible for as described below and link to this thread.  Once approved, the Experience will be added directly to your player's experience attribute. You do not need to apply it yourself.  NOTE: YOU CAN NOT CARRY OVER EXPERIENCE POINTS EARNED BY A RETIRED PLAYER ONTO A RECREATE  POINTS Full VHL Season - 5 Points Partial VHL Season - 2 points (Less than 72 GP in VHL, unless due to a trade) Playoffs - 2 Points Finals - 1 Point VHLE (Any Amount) - 3 Points VHLM (Any Amount) - 3 Points Example: John Jameson played for Prague and won in the finals. They get 5 for a full season, 2 for playoffs, and 1 for finals. For the most part, members of these teams will receive: CALGARY - 5 CHICAGO - 5 DAVOS - 7 DC - 7 HELSINKI - 7 LONDON - 7 LOS ANGELES - 8 MALMO - 5 MOSCOW - 5 NEW YORK - 5 PRAGUE - 8 RIGA - 7 SEATTLE - 7 TORONTO - 7 VANCOUVER - 7 WARSAW - 5

The main issue is that we were assuming the draft would be after FA so it wouldn't have an effect. The draft being pushed up to before FA made the conditions technically impossible to handle because your decision which would only happen after would have been adjusting draft picks. If you had immediately signed or the draft had been later it literally wouldn't have been an issue at all. Additionally we realistically don't look that hard at trades during the off-season because the main thing they would be voided over would be cap compliance which doesn't matter in the off-season; conditions also strictly are up to the GM's to enforce. Long and short is that it was a complicated situation that had the potential to set some really bad precedent so it was cleaner just to void it out. It should have been done earlier but we weren't made aware of the complication (because again, we don't really handle conditions and don't actively check every intricate detail of every trade during the off season) until yesterday morning so we dealt with it as fast as we could.

This is unfortunately going to need to be voided. Because the draft happens before FA opens there’s no clean way to handle that condition outside of the player simply signing with Davos before FA which we can’t force. For the sake of making sure the draft can run cleanly without these picks being a mess voiding is the safest solution. Stop making your conditions so messy @Alex @Banackock

1 per season baby!

Why do I do this to myself….

I assume he meant there’s no specific fighter like there is for 7 and 8.

Top 10, a lot better than usual haha

Initially we wanted the hit heavy so we didn’t add a fighter. Making the hits stronger and still not adding one though may have swung the pendulum too far the other way. To be fair I can’t speak for the others but I’m garbage at getting uncapped so “hasn’t missed TPE” is just the capped stuff, that’s actually a lot less than most. I also did have the opportunity to skip it and could have but chose to stay down not because it avoided any depreciation hit or whatever but because I wanted an experience I had never had in the VHL, something that is quite rare after 15 years. It may be shocking but not every decision is entirely TPE based.

Can I just say I still find it hilarious that’s the actual name of the award haha

God damnit, I’m gonna have to make at least 2 new cup banners this season…

TBH that's on me for not explaining things well. I was profoundly overtired last night / this morning and woke up to shit on fire so did not really explain things properly. Massive props to @Alex for requesting the clarification.
