Shindigs

As someone who has had an annoying number of giveaways to Mr. Butts, I can attest to his elite defensive game at the VHLM level. Keep up that work ethic on the ice, and the swearing at the infernal nature of your math problems off the ice, and the sky is the limit! @fonziGG

If only there was a product that could help Defensive Defensemen with this very issue. But wait, there IS such a product. And since your AGM @MubbleFubbles is a proud member of #TeamClue I'm sure he would be happy to apply some Clue Glue™ to your stick, your hair and any other place that you might need to elevate to the next level. Given some time and tutelage under #TeamClue I have no doubt that Rockwell will end up with the type of killer offense that will have you yelling "it was Bobby at the blue line with literally all 6 weapons at once, how is this even legal?!".

When that does happen, just know that you can always hit up @N0HBDY for the perfect playlist.

I mean... phonetically I'm pretty sure that has been the case on more than one occasion. But yeah a lot of names that you wouldn't really expect to slide do, the fact that we have her AND Donald trump on Miami at once is just wild. Certainly adds some extra spice to reading/parsing the PbP when collecting stats.

Sadly Mia goes IA next week, but she decided to leave in style.

I mean I'm not going to argue with the most prominent expert in the field, obviously.

Why you gotta do us dirty like that Clueston? At least Bo was only -1 with 100% goal participation in that destruction. As expected, he explains this feat by saying that Clue Glue™ gave him the edge to stay on the right side of the puck. Go figure...

1. My main tactic is to get into the team supplies and apply Clue Glue™ to everyone's sticks. It has to be done! #TeamClue @MubbleFubbles 2. I'm not saying Clue Glue™ having been applied to all their sticks was the ONLY reason we turned it around, but it sure helped! The other huge thing is that Ben Dahl is back on the top of his game @Nothing but goals has been amazing between the pipes! 3. As long as we can get our special teams up in that combined 100%ish sweet spot I think the sky is the limit. It's a long season, and I'm excited to do everything possible to get us into the playoffs! (except learning how to shoot) 4. As long as Halifax keeps doing @JardyB10 things I think we have a real shot at climbing up there. But we might need a lot of favors from a lot of teams to get in there. 5. Had tonnes of space to grow, with the near limitless ice time. But my fellow dmen have seemed a bit out of it lately. I feel like I'm losing them, don't get me wrong. I like D-bots as much as the next guy. But I'm going to miss the rivalry with Mia. 6. I'd prefer not comments. It's not really my place. But what I will say is that given the right circumstances I think they all could have solid careers.

It was more the outline on the text. But yeah it's made entirely for the light skin. Since it's literally impossible to make one that does what I intend for it to do on both skins. And I use the light, so made it for that. Actually it is technically possible. But it requires me to remove some elements that I'd rather not. May try making that version at some point though.

At least we're in Australian first?

We also need a fog horn sound effect to go with it, I feel like.

Word on the grapevine is that The Board Game Clue on Skates, has spent the day being The Board Game Clue in A Plastic Bag in The Bath in an effort to create genuine Clue Bathwater™ to sell on to the highest bidders. Truly outrageous, if it turns out to be true. But still certainly #TeamClue approved.

Let's begin the Revocluetion! #TeamClue

"Maybe he's born with it? Maybe it's Clue Glue™" #TeamClue

Can't help myself, being about as much of a boomer as @JardyB10 the Jurassic Park nostalgia is getting to me.

I think we all probably agree with this. But the reality is that the sim is pretty limited in what it can/can't do. I don't think it's even really possible to change the attributes without changing sim engine entirely, and that is not going to happen, realistically. Though as someone who is currently trying to build a pure defensive defenseman, I do agree with the sentiment. Though I'd also like to point out that at least in my (very limited) data. The rate at which giveaways from hits occur is so low that counting Checking as a possession stat isn't necessarily fair when the highest ever giveaways from hits recorded in this season for a Miami player is 4, and that was a very rare outlier. Meanwhile 40+ giveaways from flubbed passes is pretty standard. So I'd argue even Checking is barely a defensive stat. Giving even less ability to make a "creative" defensive player type. Add in that even the most offensive of forwards get 99 DEF and you don't even have the choice to make a "defensive player". Because everyone is a defensive player, due to how insane possession numbers in the sim are.

Too true. You never know how you end up gelling with the new linemates etc. But Ottawa are an absolute wagon, so should be a cool run to go on.

Whoa, are you saying all Velociraptors sound alike to you? I mean they sound pretty happy when they are eating stuff. So that counts right?

Yeah, the trade makes a lot of sense for both sides really. Only time will tell how it pans out, as always. Wasn't expecting something that impactful this early. But I didn't really expect "the wall" to be moved from Philly either. Guess I'm just too new to really have an idea of trading in this league.

*Makes happy Velociraptor Noises*

You have to be good to be lucky, and lucky to be good. Don't sell yourself short Also best of luck in Ottawa, with you no longer in Halifax I think Miami's odds of catching up to them just improved slightly.

I swear to to god, if the tie-breaker is alphabetical I'm changing name to "a Shindigs"! Seriously though @Horcrux. You may be going through some things mentally, but this is quite literally inarguable proof to how much you mean to this community. Should be added that you completely stole the show on the 5th, to the point I had to crop that to protect the poor people in 2nd and 3rd.

@bigAL you missed my Clue based endorsement campaign. Can file it under GFX. I'm thinking 3 Clue themed graphics of the bidder's player becoming a corporate shill for Clue Glue™

Didn't you have some Ice time issues at first though? Sure it will pick up sooner rather than later with that fixed. Or Simon hates Phoebe...
