I’ll keep this simple. I have found a copy of all the Topaz Labs Products for mac, free. The only one most of you guys probably know well is Topaz Adjust but the others are really strong plugins as well. I’m willing to upload and share this but am not going to put the link up on the forum for legal reasons; anyone who has been around long enough understands. So, if you want the plugins, just like this post and comment; I’ll PM you a link. Sure I’m being a like whore but hey, we’ve all done it haha. And before anyone asks, unfortunately I do not have the PC versions but I can try to find them.

Being a goalie in the VHL is a rough time. The engine makes creating a good goalie a complete crap shoot and you’ll have games where you get destroyed for no logical reasons. I definitely understand the annoyance.

I've got 4 cups total, last was with Toronto with White. That was S29. No real curse here I'd say. Unless you count Founder's Cups. Never won one of those even with 6 players having gone through the VHLM.

Just getting to this now since I was on vacation. Have found 5 and pretty sure I know the answer to the bonus question (it's just an answer right, no picture for that one?) Not bad but those last 2 taunt me.
-
I'm not! Was a little disappointed to drop down to 5th but if that's what it takes to get myself, Higgins and fever in the same team (future killer like right there) I'll gladly take it. Helsinki killed it this draft.

Claimed:S39 Draft Pre-Show! (The RETURN!)
Beketov replied to Kendrick's topic in Archived Career Tasks
Care to post what your mock was for those of us that were busy? No time to listen tonight and headed out of town for the weekend tomorrow. -
Pretty bold prediction, although at least it's something different. Final Pre-draft update is in for me: 228 TPE pre-draft. Certainly not the most ever but I believe it's the highest I've ever gotten.

Claimed:S39 Draft Pre-Show! (The RETURN!)
Beketov replied to Kendrick's topic in Archived Career Tasks
Wish I could hear this live but I'll likely be busy -
Geesh, way to make me look stupid there Devise It obviously does have it's issues, you covered them pretty well but I did enjoy it for what it is. Maybe I just went into it without trying to take everything too serious. At face value it was pretty good and I did mostly use the now so maybe that helps haha. There are definitely the issues that it shares with Uncharted though, I agree with you. The parkour elements needed more option instead of being like "grab exactly this ledge" but I did find they were a little more obvious in Tomb Raider which is good or had depending on what you want. I think technically you could qualify it as a reboot and a prequel since it falls before most of the tomb raider games but is definitely rebooting the series. Anyway, definitely agree with portal, although play both to get the full story and they are better on PC. LA Noire is a pretty good game as well but I found it got really repetitive really fast.

To still play in S39 you’ll have to re-create at the start of pre-season retirements which is listed currently as July 14th. It’s possible that will fall before the VHLM draft but if it doesn’t you’ll be picked up off waivers.

After a disappointing game 7 loss knocked the Moscow Red Wolves out of the VHLM playoffs prospect Jackson Miller took some time away from hockey to get his head straight and look toward the future. S38 didn’t end how the future draft pick had hoped but he came to the conclusion to look at the silver lining. When talking with VHL.com Miller said, “It sucks to get pushed out of the playoffs like that, especially after how well we played in the three wins. I’m not dwelling on the past though, I’m looking to the future." That future, at least immediately speaking, is the VHL draft (set to take place tomorrow evening) and the VHL Super Cup which will see it’s second iteration in the coming off-season. “I’m really surprised the draft got announced that soon, I was expecting to have another week or so before the event so travel plans are certainly taking off quick and I’m trying to mentally prepare myself for the whole thing. At the same time, the Super Cup draft was televised last night. I didn’t exactly go early on but I wasn’t expecting to since the best of the best in the VHL are taking part. I’m just glad I get to play with some of these guys and hopefully learn from them as I look toward my VHL career." Miller was drafted by Joey Kendrick’s "Walser This Way” Super Cup team 49th overall and will be playing on the second line for the tournament. As for the VHL draft, he is expected to go early on with predictions ranging from 1st-4th overall.

If you’re talking straight brightness / contrast adjustment for the high and low end I find levels works very well. If you want to play with things more though (or work with colour obviously) I find curves to be the best option.
-
Was definitely not expecting the draft to be that soon haha. So yeah, I guess I'll be the highest TPE this draft.
-
GIF of the layers being added, mostly because I’m really bored haha. Kinda fun to see the transformation though; I might do this for more of my sigs.

I recently borrowed Tomb Raider from a co-worker and found it was actually much better than I thought. Pretty good prequel story and strong gameplay mechanics. If you have a PS3 the uncharted series is pretty good. Generally if you want story then some indie steam games might be good, depends which one you pick though. On the Tomb Raider front, since I mentioned it, is it bad that as a Sony gamer and fan I preferred it to Uncharted? Uncharted is a strong series (haven’t played the third one much, but beat the first two) but it can feel kinda linear at times and I really hate that there is no real way to stealth except following a very specific timing and path; plus if you get spotted 30 guys who weren’t there before suddenly appeared. At least Tomb Raider offers the bow to silently take guys out and doesn’t usually FORCE the player into a fight.

Wouldn’t have had time to get this recorded and cut as a PT this week so going to do it for next week. Bring on the suggestions!

original for comparison Added the link to the original just in case you wanted to compare to see how much was done.

original for comparison Added the link to the original just in case you wanted to compare to see how much was done. I’m really starting to get used to how to colour with curves. It’s amazingly powerful if you haven’t tried it. CnC?

Just sent my S39 donation; puts me at $80 total so I’ll take that shiny $75 donation badge Also, taking the 2nd doubled PT.

Admittedly it is what I asked but goalies do change the landscape a little since you either really need one or you really don't. That said, as I just mentioned, it's more than possible that Stokes will surpass me by the time the draft rolls around.
-
Your job definitely helps you out there, by draft time it's more than possible that you'll be above me. I seriously need to pick something up.
-
If, by the time I get one, there are enough games out I'll likely go that route too. I don't usually because of lack of backwards compatibility but if I have enough games to play I think I'll be able to manage. Definitely wanna get through a few if the current gen games I haven't played yet first though.
-
Seems to be the way it's looking is my guess. First time ever the top TPE earner drops out of the top 3? Course we don't know anything yet.
-
I’m going to assume you mean the one I’m wearing and go with that; although stating that would have been easier haha. Any other suggestions? I’ll likely record this tomorrow morning.

Which one?
