  1. Hello everyone, it’s Shaw back once again. Today, we will be exploring what happens in the locker room for the team you may know as Malmo. This will mainly be a role play on each player/character and is not meant to represent anything negative. This act is just for entertainment purposes, I do not mean to cause any negative reactions, and I also do not mean any rude comments to anyone reading, or being mentioned in this. *game ends* Max Torq - Heyyy, let’s go guys, good win today guys, we’ve been doing well recently, Boris, great as always good in the net, Shaw, you seemed a bit off today, only 4 shots blocked today. Dabnad Shaw - Give me a break, I think the doctor is bored of me going in the hospital at this rate, they’re starting to give me bandages to apply myself, at the end of my carrer I can probably be a bone specialist. Kaleeb- Alright people, good work today, well done out there, another win, we’re on a streak let’s not let the flame extinguish, Dom (Igor Molotov) and Max (Torq), good leadership on the ice, teaching the new people how it’s done eh? Igor Molotov - All in a days work, gotta get these younglings some experience. Anyways wh- Boris Tzear - Finally these pads are off, I swear to god you skaters have it so much easier, it takes me like five hours to take this stuff off. You skaters have to take your skates off and call it a day. I definitely don’t get paid enough for this. Dabnad Shaw- Yeah get back to complaining, should’ve just become bigger and you can come skate with us. Kaleeb - Okay you two stop bickering, anyways, today is the last game before the playoffs start, we haven’t made the playoffs this year so who are we rooting for this time? Mo Probert - Considering I am not allowed to cheer for any European teams, I think I’m going for Calgary this season, you know just changing it up this time around. Dabnad Shaw - I’m going with Vancouver again, definitely the favourite. Boris Tzesar - I agree with Shaw, Vancouver is definitely a team I’d like see winning again. Spaz - Hey everyone, sorry I missed the start of the meeting, had to finish up some formalities near the end of the game, what are we talking about today? Max Troq - Just seeing who we think is going to win the cup this year, Boris (Tzesar) and (Dabnad) Shaw are going for Vancouver while Mo (Probert) is cheering for Calgary, bunch of Canadians here. Kaleeb - Alright guys, we’ve gotta empty the space, we’ve gotta leave before the home team kicks us out, I’ll make the speech short today, we did good out there today, we’ve got to remember to keep our head up, and eyes forward, if we do this every game like we did today we can win every game just like we did today. Also everyone don’t forget to enjoy your break, we will have a season-end practice tomorrow, but after that the next offical practice will be after the playoffs end so have fun, watch the playoffs, and celebrate the off-season with your family and friends see you guys tomorrow. Everyone- see y’a coach (Also Boris I spelt your name wrong on purpose) Anyways that’ll be the end of me for today, until next time, this is Dabnad Shaw signing off until next time. 587 words Week ending 01-01-23
  2. Hello everyone! It’s Shaw again. This is less an article to talk about the inflation of skill more to celebrate the fact that it has been a year since I have joined the league. This article is more of a throw back to my very first article in the VHL about the inflation of skill. This was back when I was naive and didn't know how the league worked. Now a full year later I come back and look where I was wrong. Now, one of the biggest and most important points of that article was the fact that most people earned a lot of TPE during the holiday season and since every single player earned this TPE, it really didn't matter as everyone earned the same stuff. This my friends, was where I was wrong. Being young in the league I didn't understand how TPE worked and thought that one TPE was the same for everyone. What I failed to consider was the fact that when you have more TPE, a single piece of TPE is worth less. For example, if you have 750 TPE with your defensive coverage and many defensive statistics being around the 90 mark while wanting to just upgrade defence, one TPE doesn't matter since you're going to need around 5-8 TPE upgrade any statistic as that's your goal. On the contrary, if you’re a new player who has 50 defence, that one TPE is an upgrade of an entire skill. This is a huge thing which I failed to consider. Rather than inflating the VHL, giving out free TPE helps balance the TPE. Of course, this entire study is flawed since many inactive players don't see the free TPE however, in a perfect society, free TPE helps more than it hurts. Now that the mistake in my very first article is gone, I shall talk about how we can help balance the league. I refuse to write about anything but economics in the holiday spirit. You know, in the holiday spirit most people are thinking about gifts and family I'm thinking about how I can make an article in the VHL which I’ll review next year for it to make no sense to me and make another article out of it, kind of like a money laundering scheme, at the end of the day all the money (TPE) is mine. This year, I'll be showing everyone how we can perfectly balance the league to give everyone an equal chance and make it so there is no inequality to make so skill and time don't matter and everything we do is based on luck and what our architecture is. This is how we can make the league boring for everyone and why parity in the league may be a bad thing. So the first thing we want to do to make it equal is to make everyone restart at 100 TPE. What this will do is make it balanced for everyone and make it so that everyone can have an equal chance. Next, we want to discard all methods of earning TPE. Earn one TPE every time to make it fair for everyone. This would make the league incredibly boring. This way, you do nothing in the league. So my friends, since we don't want to do this, parity in the league may be bad. Anyways, let's end this short segment of me ranting about having parity and I will see you next time, until then this is Dabnad Shaw, signing off, until next time. Week ending Dec 25 2022 590 words

  9. Hello everyone, Shaw is back writing stuff, for now that is, and today, we will be talking about my experience for Dabnad. Dabnad Shaw is the first member of the (non-Goalie Shaw) Shaw family. He’s a defensemen who’s good at stoping pucks for the goalie (ask @comrade catI single handedly reduce his shots against by like 2 a game) and he sometimes helps on the other side of the ice as well. Today we will talking about his journey and accomplishments over his life and see what type of a player he is. THE VHLM Shaw started off his carrer half way through the VHLM where he was signed to the Mexico City Kings by Mr. @youloser1337where he was met with many of his best friends (and best enemy’s). One of his best friends he met there was Ronan Lavelle @Arce. Arce (also known as Arcey, RC, R man, R McRman, the Ranator, Perry the Platypus and many more) was a smart forward. He was smart, dashing, and old and very mature. Arcey is now a very active member however, back when we met he was a very shy member (this is a lie). The other person he met there was the worst person he’s ever met. Shaw hated him soo much he met them again in Malmo and wanted to trade them for a 4th. This person was @comrade cat. Now, whatever I said about Cat was a lie, he’s a very nice person (mostly) and an active presence in the locker room, a great goalie, and a damn good teammate. Shaw, Arcey, and Cat together we’re known as the 3 mosquitos musketeers, this term was famously coined by @Lemorse7who is another friend of ours. This team was very well done and went long ways in the playoffs, not very long but still, and had a damn good time with the locker room chemistry being one of the best Shaw has ever seen. After this Shaw came into the VHLE after playing just 36+4 games in the VHLM. VHLE The VHLE was also a fun experience for Shaw, here he met a very fun person named @UnknownMinion(I think this is him?) as our GM. He was also another smart and kind person that everyone liked (Can my family be let go now?). In the VHLE, we also see Arcey join us on our journey at the Rush where he recorded 3 times as many points as me, forwards these days, where I recorded 37, remember this as this will be important in the future. Other than this, nothing as exciting happened in the VHLE. This was a fun year as well. VHL Now, onto the big leagues, here, Shaw was drafted to Malmo where he met @Dom, the best way to describe Dom is that he is who he is, he is Dom. That might be confusing but you get what I mean when you meet him. The first few season went well, then we meet Cat @comrade catonce again, Cat was traded here for a 4th and a great active member once again. At first, he was inactive however, he became active after we convinced him to become active. Sadly after a while, Dom had to retire from GMing which is when we meet @KaleebtheMighty. Kaleeb is a very good GM who encourages us in any way possible. In the VHL Shaw has recorded points consisting of 38,39, and 40. So from the VHLE he has gotten points of 37,38,39 and 40, pretty interesting isn’t it? We also meet @Steve, Steve is the old and mature on in the group who can literally be mine and Cat’s parents. Well, that’s my first gen experience for Shaw, a fun and well done time for everyone. I’ve loved my time here and hope to spend as much time here as possible, other than that, this is Dabnad Shaw signing off once again and until next time, see y’a! 658 words Week ending Dec 18

  16. Dabnad Shaw, a defenseman who plays for the Malmo Nighthawks, is a pretty decent player. He brings many things to the team including his shot blocking however, one of the biggest thing he brings is his experience and his excitement. He’s a good player who’s decently active. Lets go talk to the old man and see how he’s been for the past time “Hello Shaw how are you?” “Hey, one of my first interviews in a while it’s been” “So, let’s get right to the point, how is it being an old man on the team compared to a rookie?” “Well, being honest I think, while being a small difference, the difference is really that I went from being the one receiving the advice, to the one being taught how to give the advice while receiving the advice. That might be confusing but what I mean is that I go from being someone who has to learn how everything works in the team and how the team works, learning about the team, and seeing how the management works to learning directly from the management to teach the new and learning kids of the team in the near future.” “How do you learn from the management in a way that you teach others?” “Learning from the management is a simple yet interesting thing that nearly every single player has to do. To learn from the management simply means that we have to learn how the team works, and then contribute to the management. This way we learn more about the team, and the player which are coming in. We learn their positives and negatives, and what they need to improve on. Simply put, we learn how to nurture the new talent into becoming a better player which makes the franchise better.” “When have you been put into this role of being in the management?” “I think that the player is put into this role around 2-3 years after you’re in the organization, being in the league and being in the team is different. Staying with one organization is important in that sense that we learn how the team works the entire time and we don’t mix up the different skills and management types of every organization and team. Creating a fun and loving environment for the team is also a role which I’ve been put up to and it’s a role which I atleast try to do to the best of my ability.” “That’s a great answer, I’d like to thank you from the entire league, have a good one mate and good luck on your retirement in a bit” “Ah I’ve sadly still got some time before I can retire, though if Kaleeb allows me I can retire now, there’s a great system down in the M maybe I can get some work down there, anyways have a good one!”
