    You know the drill. WJC needs GMs, so we need to hire 'em. We are currently looking to fill the GM positions for the following teams for a ~2 week period this coming off-season:

    - Canada

    - USA

    - Europe

    - Asia

    - World

     

    You do not need previous GM experience! This was actually my first ever GM experience back in the S60s, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to dip their toes into management without a whole lot of commitment.

     

    Your tasks should you choose to apply:

    - Assemble your roster from an eligibility list.

    - Promote the tournament and your team.

    - Create your own lines and strategies for games! *We will help you learn this*
    - Engage with your team to create activity and hype around the tournament.

    - Have fun! 
     

    Please apply by commenting on this thread or DMing myself or @Ricer13. If you have any questions regarding this tournament or the hiring process please feel free to reach out. 

     

    @VHLM GM please chuck this thread into your locker rooms.

    Interested if still need😁

    Happy Birthday Party GIF by curly_mads

     

    Hey VHL @Members!

     

    In case anyone isn't aware July 18th, 2007 is the day the VHL opened. "Umbrella" by Rihanna was topping the charts, the Anaheim Ducks were celebrating their Stanley Cup win, and the VHL was opening it's doors! That means today marks the league's official 15th birthday. Every year I'm surprised when I type this that it's been so long and this year is no exception as I will be marking the official point where I've been in the VHL longer than I was out of it within this calendar year; fucking crazy. You all didn't click on this to read about how old I am though, I've been around the block long enough to know that. You came in for the TPE and I intend on delivering it!

     

    To commemorate the league's 15th birthday, we are giving all members a Triples Week, which adds 12 Uncapped TPE to any 6-TPE Point Task (Welfare/Pension/Affiliate PT are not included but as usual if your pay covers your PT that counts), as well as 3 Uncapped TPE. To claim these perks, which of course add up to 15 Uncapped TPE, all you need to do is post in this thread and then link to that post in your update; that's it! No scavenger hunt, no clues, no catches!

     

    What's that? Uncapped TPE isn't enough for you? Well so be it, how about some prizes then!

     

    Not only are we giving TPE away but once again we're also giving away some bonus items because what's a birthday without presents? Anyone who comments on this thread, thus getting the bonus mentioned above, will be entered into a draw for some prizes. Some will be league based, some will be real items. I'm not going to tell you what they are yet though, you just need to wait and see don't you? What I will say is in honour of the 15th anniversary there will be 15 winners!

     

    So, to summarize quickly, that's 15 uncapped TPE just for commenting and doing a PT as well as some gifts at a later date curtesy of the VHL. All you have to do is post in here and you're good to go!

    Notes:

    • This thread will remain open until 11:59PM PST on Sunday, July 24th.

    • All claims for the birthday bonus must be made by the end of the playoffs this season.

    • Birthday perks may only be claimed on one player per member (IE if you are re-creating you can't claim them on your current player, re-create, and claim them again, pick one or the other).

    • No prizes can be exchanged for cash value however, as always, you may receive a prize from a lower "tier" if you prefer.

    1. We've picked up two new players recently in Sunglasses Joyo and jacob cookie jr. How would you welcome them to the city of Halifax, and/or to the VHL as a whole?

     

    Hmm...welcoming them to Halifax I'd probably defer to @Will and @Beketov, maybe go grab some donair and garlic fingers? Probably hop on a seaplane over to Newfoundland and kiss the fish?

     

    2. Is there a particular NHL or VHL player you want to model your game or career around?

     

    Who is the most average goalie you can think of? Ok, now imagine that goalie, but probably a bit worse, yet a bank account that could literally buy every team in existence. Yeah, he's who I'm modeling my career around.

     

    3. How did you first discover the VHL?

     

    @brooks. told me that he and @scotty were working on the league after SHL and a bunch of other leagues run on Chel folded. I don't think they ever imagined this thing lasting nearly this long, when to that point the longest running hockey sim leagues maybe lasted a year

     

    4. It's very early in the season, but we are currently in a playoff position! What are some things we could do to ensure we stay in that position?

     

    I'm honestly not sure how the M dynamics work anymore, but I guess get lucky in picking up some solid actives through waivers and adding some depth. Right now, only one team has fewer GF than us, so scoring would help.

     

    5. I finally watched Up for the first time relatively recently, and damn it was good! What is your favourite animated movie?

     

    Spiderman Into the Spiderverse is probably the single greatest animated movie of all time. Such a good movie and I can't wait for Across the Spiderverse to come out.

     

    6. What website would you say you visit the most?

     

    Anyone who doesn't say reddit is a liar. Too easy to curate it into a news source for all your fandoms + get some entertainment, even if most of it is creative writing.

    1. I think they will bring a lot to the team seeing as they already have, great people to have join the team, very excited for the future

    2. Maybe Cale Makar or John Carlson

    3. I honestly have no clue, it’s been a good year or two since my first player

    4. definitely build on our defensive side of the ice, we put the puck in the net but gotta keep it outta ours

    5. You can’t go wrong with a little bit of SpongeBob lol

    6. ummm definitely Twitter or Snapchat I’d say

    3. I've asked this in the past, but we have a pretty fresh group of people now: If you could be the Halifax GM or owner for a day, what would you do with the role? (Trades? Make the concession stand free? Fire Jardy?)

     

    4. Speaking of taco Tuesday, what is your players favourite food? Is it the same as YOUR favourite food?

    2.I would rather not comment on that 

    3. I would say Ivan or Landon but it’s a open spot

    4. well you know the boys are bussin I’ll give them the credit there but it’s a whole team effort, got guys around them but at the end of the day, put up 100 points does not mean anything if your not winning games

    5. no chance at all, petty Is the top of the franchise, I don’t see him leaving 

    6. get outta here

  9. 1. Pump myself up with pre game music is always a must, chat with the teammates pre game

By joining any discord affiliated with the VHL it makes it much easier for us GM’s to reach out to you and talk to you about job openings, tpe opportunities, and reminders to update.

     

    We have an exciting season ahead of us and we are certainly looking forward to it!

    Bienvenidos @Brodie_Landry!

    On behalf of my GM, @youloser1337 and I, welcome back to the league! Since you've been around before and you know the basics, I can keep this brief! Were set to be underdogs in the playoffs and were looking for players to help round out our roster. You'll be a part of the dispersal draft afterwards, however, you could potentially help push an underdog team further into the playoffs before you do! With some good earning you could compete for 2nd line minutes pretty quickly.

    If you want to be a part of our push, just quote me and respond with #HAILTOTHEKING, and I'll send you a contract and links to the locker room!

     

    Good luck in your career!
