@Banackock

I feel like Vegas has a 100% chance. If they don’t make the playoffs I’m leaving the VHL lmao

13k words should be worth at least a full season of PT's covered wow

Hey @Jayrad28 welcome back! My name is AJ, Houston Bulls GM. We have a great team at the moment in the top 4 of the standings. I would love to offer you 3rd line minutes to start, but with time and earning I can definitely bump you up. If you’d like to join us this season, quote this message saying #FlamingBulls and I can send you a contract. Good luck this season!

Feel like Mississauga easily won this trade but I won’t say anymore

Okay so we can't claim Theme Week and Birthday in the same week right? So for this week: Do theme week, claim the 6 Capped and 6 Uncapped double week Reply to Birthday Thread Next week: Do a PT so we can claim our 15 TPE reply in the birthday thread? Is that how it works? My brain is SLOW today.

Taking a spin on this theme week to talk about where Williams was at the age of 15. Williams is currently in his 5th season of the VHL and played 2 seasons in the VHLM. So let's just say he entered the VHLM at 17 and with each season being a year his time, he is now 24. SO, this article will talk about Williams two years prior to his VHLM debut. To start things off, Williams is a Northern Ontarian boy, growing up his entire life before his hockey career took over. At 15 years old, Williams was playing for his AAA team. Williams was getting lots of recognition for his talents at a young age, and entering his mid teen years that recognition blew up. Scouts from across the world were reaching out to contact Williams, showing interest and wanting him to come play in their leagues. He remembers doing a Russian league interview where the interviewer had such a thick Russian accent that Williams did not understand any of the questions and had to mainly laugh things off. Williams was just a teenage boy at the end of the day and this was all a lot to take in. He basically had the next chapters of his life planned out and did not know where to go or what to do. So instead of thinking about what's next, he thought about what's now, and that was to play his best hockey for his AAA team. Williams went on to set a team record of 104 points in 46 games. He crushed the previous record that was set by 81 points back in 1991. Up north does not produce a lot of talent in anything, so for Williams to be producing at a high level like this was not only huge for him but the community. Soon more Canadian leagues were reaching out and Williams was pretty excited for the chance to play for a high level league in his home country. Through countless phone calls and emails, Williams finally had his heart set on entering the VHLM. There are two teams from Ontario, the Ottawa Lynx and the Mississauga Hounds, so Williams had known of these teams and the league they played in for a long time. Williams had been contacted by the Ottawa Lynx GM to come play for them once he was developed and ready. Williams would play another season with his native team before signing a waiver deal with the Lynx in S78. Williams enjoyed the league and knew this is where he would want to play his professional hockey career. Williams then entered the S79 VHLM Dispersal Draft and to his surprise, Mississauga, the other Ontario team, drafted his player 1st overall to keep him as a home body. Williams was thrilled and his talents really took off, leading him to a 5th overall pick in the VHL draft, and just recently winning a cup for the Seattle Bears. The VHL was definitely the place for Williams to grow and be the best player he is today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Should’ve known you were Vegas blood. Makes sense why you’re so goated.

Was going to add that in but this checklist is more for what to do right when you join the league. So most players won’t be at 100 TPE right away.

Hands down best Game Recap I’ve seen

I gotta go with Offensive Vision. Scoring and Passing both being a 0.3 ratio per upgrade and those attributes are mainly targeted for point production in the VHL. Whenever someone wants a scoring build they target the scoring attribute to upgrade and whenever someone wants a passing build they target the passing attribute. Deking would be my runner up since puck handling obviously helps you control the puck, and then the defence attribute is just so over powered in STHS.

@Dil Not surprised by the number choice

New York now has 9 players in there Prospect Pool with 300+ TPE as well as an S85 1st and 3 S85 2nds... jeez

I am noticing often that when players join the league and choose a team, they have no idea what to do or where to start. I am sure there are multiple articles posted to address this, but I am going to make my own for my own locker room. So here is a checklist for beginners on what they should do to earn TPE once they join the league. I will be explaining how to do this checklist further down in the article and how to claim your TPE! Collect Practice Facility Do a Point Task Do Supplemental Tasks Write Your Junior Review Player Store Purchases Join the league Discord Step 0: Understanding what Capped TPE vs Uncapped TPE is Capped TPE is your 12 weekly TPE you can earn by doing specific tasks such as Point Tasks and Supplemental Tasks. Uncapped TPE is not part of your 12 weekly capped TPE. Uncapped TPE is earned by doing tasks such as Practice Facility, Career Tasks, Fantasy, etc. There are multiple ways of earning uncapped TPE at different times of season. Your GM should inform you when these uncapped TPE opportunities occur as they are not always a set date. Step 1: Collect Practice Facility The first thing you should do each week is collect Practice Facility. It is free weekly Uncapped TPE worth 2 TPE in the VHLM/VHLE, and 1 TPE in the VHL. To claim Practice Facility, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Practice Facility. This TPE will automatically apply to your player and does NOT count towards your weekly capped TPE. Step 2: Do a Point Task Point Tasks - 6/12 TPE https://vhlforum.com/forum/542-point-tasks/ Clicking that link will direct you to the Point Task thread. There you will see Media Spots, Graphics/Videos, and Podcasts. Choose which task you would like to do then read the guidelines/rules thread. The guideline thread will tell you exactly what to do in order to earn your 6 TPE. Once you understand the requirements, go back to the Point Task thread and click which Point Task you would like to do, create a new topic, and post it there. To claim a Point Task, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Claim Capped > then select which type of Point Task you completed. You will need to wait for updaters approval. If approved, your TPE will be applied to your player through the portal. Media Spot: 6 TPE Graphic/Video: 6 TPE Podcast: 6 TPE Welfare: 4 TPE Welfare: Welfare is a 4 TPE task which is equivalent in weight to a Point Task. When collecting Welfare, your weekly capped TPE total drops to 10 instead of 12. So you can still do 6 TPE worth of supplemental tasks + welfare, but no more than that. To collect Welfare, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Welfare. Step 3: Do Supplemental Tasks Supplemental Tasks - 6/12 TPE *Supplemental Tasks are not worth 6 TPE each. Doing multiple supplemental tasks will add up to earn you the other 6 TPE you need after doing a 6 TPE Point Task, to get you to the 12 weekly capped TPE* https://vhlforum.com/forum/543-supplemental-point-tasks/ Clicking that link will direct you to the Supplemental Task thread. There you will see Vhl.com Articles, Vhl.com Graphics, Vhl.com Radio, Trivia, and Press Conferences. Choose which task you would like to do then read the guidelines/rules thread. The guideline thread will tell you exactly what to do in order to earn your certain amount of TPE. Once you understand the requirements, go back to the Supplemental Point Tasks thread and click which Supplemental Point Task you would like to do, create a new topic, and post it there. Game Recap and Reviewing guidelines are not found in that thread. To claim a Supplemental Point Task, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Claim Capped > then select which type of Supplemental Point Task you completed. You will need to wait for updaters approval. If approved, your TPE will be applied to your player through the portal. Game Recap Guidelines: Reviewing Guidelines: As a secondary point task, members may complete a review on any sort of forum content. This review must be at least 75 words, is worth 1 TPE, and may be claimed up to two times per week. Reviews must examine or assess content formally with the possibility or intention of instituting change if necessary. Step 4: Write Your Prospect Scouting Report Career Point Tasks are essentially tasks you can complete throughout your player's career. These tasks are worth Uncapped TPE and are to be done at certain points of your player's career. When joining the VHL, you are only eligible to complete the Prospect Scouting Report and Biography. As your player grows through the seasons, you will be eligible for more career tasks. https://vhlforum.com/forum/520-prospect-scouting-report/ Clicking that link will direct you to the Prospect Scouting Report thread. Read the guidelines/rules thread. The guideline thread will tell you exactly what to do in order to earn your 5 Uncapped TPE. Once you understand the requirements, go back to the Prospect Scouting Report thread, create a new topic, and post it there. To claim your Prospect Scouting Report, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Claim Uncapped > Career > Prospect Scouting Report. You will need to wait for updaters approval. If approved, your TPE will be applied to your player through the portal. Step 5: Player Store Purchases Once you have joined a team, you would have accepted a $1.5 million contract. This contract may not have applied to your player right away, but once it is applied, you can use it to make purchases in the Player Store. As a First-Generation Player (this meaning you have only created one player or have not created a player in over 3 seasons), you are eligible for two player store purchases: The First Generation: $500,000 First Gen Doubles: $1,000,000 Both purchases are worth uncapped TPE. "The First Generation" is worth 5 Uncapped TPE, which you can buy with no requirements, and "First Gen Doubles" is available for purchase once you submit and are approved of a Point Task. It is called First Gen Doubles because it "Doubles" your point task TPE (6 capped TPE) of 6 Uncapped TPE. To get to the Player Store, go to the portal, then click Player > Manage > Player Store. You will need to wait for the Player Store Manager's approval. If approved, your TPE will be applied to your player through the portal. Step 6: Join the League Discord This step is obviously optional but highly recommended. We have a great community on discord with 700+ members. Here you can easily connect with mostly everyone in the league and ask for help if needed. Here is the link to the league's discord: Click me! No More Steps! There you have it! These are all the steps you can follow once joining the VHL to earn maximum TPE for your starting week. Here is a breakdown of how much TPE you can earn in your first week of joining the league: Capped TPE Point Task: 6 TPE Supplemental Tasks: 6 TPE Uncapped TPE Practice Facility: 2 TPE Prospect Scouting Report: 5 TPE Player Store Purchases: 11 TPE Total TPE: 30 TPE Welcome to the league and best of luck on your player's career!

@dylanjj37 if I bring the yacht, will my entrance fee be enough to build an ice rink on it? My yacht unfortunately does not have one. I would also like to pay for the reserved spot at the party! Hopefully those two can cover it.
