  1. you can't even spell Seamus's name right, who is the the stupid one now
  2. I'd love to apply!
  3. what a great name
  4. I say no because I like TPE and cutting Fantasy Zone TPE means I make less TPE.
  5. i tried sambuca once and had an epiphany that it needed dr. pepper, so maybe someone has done it before but it is incredible
  6. I know at least some version of the sim has giveaways and takeaways, since it is a column on the index, but obviously we don't track it and it makes me very sad. I also really want to make a proper 2-way forward and feel the exact same way.
  7. That is probably my fault as I wrote this lmao. I just found that spot and will report it properly
  8. Game 197 Recap Johnny Xavier ended this 3-2 OT thriller for his team, the Cologne Express. Cologne now sits tied with their opponent, Bratislava in points in the standings, only separated by ROW. While it was certainly not an offensive affair, both teams got consistent scoring from their top units, and some chances generated by the depth of their lineups. Both teams are primed to be threats to each other in the playoffs, and this looks to be a likely playoff matchup come the postseason.
  9. Game 241 Recap The goaltenders once again steal the show this game, in a 2-1 duel where Tombstone took the victory. Both teams put up more than 30 shots, but only 3 shots total slipped through the tenders today. Halifax squeezed the last bit of offense out of Svatopluk Puk before shipping him off to San Diego after the game. Halifax should remain competitive this season but are already looking deadly for next season. Ottawa stocked up this week, grabbing several waiver players and Hasbulla via trade today.
  10. SAN DIEGO MARLINS PRESS CONFERENCE Week Ending 5/15/2022 or 5/22/2022 Answer 3 questions for 1 capped TPE, all 6 for 2. 1. So the Leafs lost another Game 7, do you think franchises can truly be cursed? 2. What is your drink of choice? 3. When do you tend to update your player? 4. Usually before the Trade Deadline we have a Theme Week, where Point Tasks about the theme get extra TPE. If you had to make a theme, what would it be? 5. We are currently on pace for 57.6 wins this season. How many wins do you think we can realistically get for this 72-game season? 6. If you were to expand/relocate a team for the VHLM what city would you put them in? Let’s Go Marlins! @Firekiss @hedgehog337 @BrutalBoost @tcookie @Plate @weekz @Snussu @JCarson @DMaximus @David Cobberson @Sam_19 @Hoopydog @Zack @CanucksFan @Crummer77 @MMFLEX @frescoelmo @Rain @Otaznik
  11. Although I’ve already submitted a vhl.com article for my 400th TPE, I want to step back and take a look at all of the things that have happened over the last 400 TPE. When it comes to Landon Wolanin, I’ve scored 124 (should’ve been 125) points across 122 games. A bit over a hit a game, and 2/3 of a shot blocked a game. I guess I also scored 13 points in the playoff in 7 games. I got drafted a few times, and help orchestrate a draft as an AGM, and oh yeah I got hired as an AGM after lurking in the league for a year and a half. I have finally braved general chat on the VHL Discord server! I finished another year of school and did way better than I expected. I found the perfect balance of being social and independent, responsible yet free. I watched the Leafs lose another Game 7. I’m kind of glad its over now actually. I lost a lot of friends to manipulative and dependent people. But I also escaped that and have found my own happiness. I also reunited with the people who were really my friends all along, who have supported me no matter what. I’ve embraced my hobbies more than ever, and I’ve kept myself from unproductive mindsets and habits, for the most part. I’ve listened to like 3 whole Jardy podcasts! I helped stir up drama on the site multiple times just for forum content. I’ve tracked all of my little Marlins earnings for the entire season without missing a week. And I’ve managed to max earn (except for that point in time where I was going to stay in the VHLM until Spartan convinced me not to… thank you) I got considerably worse at hockey! I tried a non-standard build for the season, and although I love it, it isn’t exactly as good as my first pre-hybrid build. And honestly that’s perfectly fine. Every GM who has ever interviewed me knows I just want to be a good teammate and maybe pitch in a little here and there. And well, I’m doing just that. I’ve worked hard to be a leader in every team I’m a part of, whether I’m playing there or not. I’ve actually gotten excited to play for a VHL team! No offence to my previous VHL GMs it wasn’t your fault I was just a clicker. I’ve already talked about max earning, but I’ve written a media spot every week I’ve been meaning to max earn, which I was always scared to do before. I still know nothing about the league, and I learn new things every day, but I can confidently answer like 3 whole questions. I still suck at Fantasy Zone, but I’m doing pretty well in VHFL! I survived COVID! And I’m currently avoiding catching it from my parents as I write this. Gross. I joined the EFL and SBA, and I don’t understand either of them at all, but that Affiliate Check is nice. Go Basketball and Football! And most importantly (literally the least important thing here), I hit 400 TPE! By actually earning it too! I know it’s a pretty meaningless milestone, but it’s the last time I get to cap out, so now its on to endless earnings for a few more seasons. PS. Hope this counts for the inevitable theme week that will hopefully be announced soon
  12. Especially considering the last few moves, are the S83 San Diego Marlins the best VHLM team assembled in recent history? I mean this entirely when it comes down to roster construction not simulation or playoff success. By the playoffs the Marlins should have 11-12 capped forwards, 5 capped defensemen and 2 capped goaltenders. I don’t think there’s any easy way to see championship winning rosters with the TPA at the time, so I can’t exactly prove this claim, but realistically, it doesn’t get much better than this. No matter who you play, you’ll be facing a fully capped forward and defensive core and be shooting on a capped goalie. To make matters worse, the Marlins tend to have pretty strong builds all around. There are a few suboptimal points on some players, but nothing too crazy. It has been super tough for teams to score on the Marlins al season, and they have just added 2 more caped forwards to help drive some more offense. Don’t look for anyone to compete for major player awards, as the lines have been rolling pretty evenly as of late, but team success is on the front of the Marlins minds. Hopefully it works, and praise be to Simon.
  13. update: clicking on the column on the mexico city kings page actually does nothing
  14. welcome to the VHL @tehcanuck! my name is jacob and I am the AGM with the San Diego Marlins! Our GM @Frankand I would love to offer you a spot on our roster! We are currently first in the league and are looking to push for a championship this season! To join our team, quote this message and reply with #jointhebigfish and we will send you a contract!
  15. i'm gonna need some alcohol to survive this leafs game so the sambuca and dr. pepper concoction comes out
  16. I hope to be writing a very similar article in a year. Congrats and enjoy the new chapter!
  17. the roster page specifically, not sure if the schedule page ever did it despite the arrows indicating it could. Everything else I've checked seems to be fine.
  18. Clicking on the column sorts Z->A or Large->Small but doesn't go A-> or small to large if I click again
  19. can i get 1 TPE as compensation for the inconvenience
  20. another sam scandal? when is enough enough?
  21. also if you pick San Diego you'll be playing with @Zack(as a player at least) anyways so one could say we're the best of both worlds
