Fun fact: this is Bite Sized Berocka #16 #2, the episode so nice you did it twice! The google form works okay for me for the fantasy stuff, but that's in Safari on iOS, and it sounds like you're probably on a different platform. I like the idea of building blocks for new players, I'm not sure what the best iteration of that idea would look like though. Scaled earning? Bonus earning for new players? Tutorial tasks? The options are endless! Thanks for giving me something to listen to at my desk this morning!

Team World. The absolute peak high water mark of prestige that any young hockey player can achieve. Other teams will talk a big game, but who do they represent? Countries? Continents? Step aside, small fry, Team World claims ownership to each and every country across all seven continents. Our roster is stacked top to bottom with only the brightest and most capable athletes the world has to offer. Travel expenses are exorbitant, but it’s a price we are willing to pay for the premiere talent that we have lacing up skates on behalf of Team World.

I think Anchor is just trying to hurt your feelings, probably best to not shout out your own social security number. I'll keep listening just in case, though! Shocking for me to see that @Shindigs only joined the site like six months ago, the man has a presence about him.

YES. I want all the teams to be set up like Hogwarts houses! Each GM has their own personality quirk and they build a team according to their strategy “theme”. Totally impractical but it would also be hugely fun to participate in. I look forward to your inevitable reign as a tyrant GM some time in the near future!

Series 2, Game 4 was the second in a row to feature a final score of 7-3 in favor of Mexico City. The Bulls took an early lead and finished the first period up 2-0 over the Kings. Mexico City rallied in a big way during the middle frame, scoring five goals on twelve shots while allowing only a single goal. The third period kept that momentum going for the Kings, and Houston would find themselves in a hole too deep to dig out of. Brandt Fuhr stood tall for the Kings the entire night, turning aside 44 of 47 shot attempts for an incredible 0.936 save percentage. The Houston offense put in the hard work and effort, but luck was not in their favor.

Misfortune strikes at just the wrong time. A crime has been reported from the Showcase Tournament Arena. On-site reporters are standing by to provide further details. When all anyone is talking about is the commission of murder, they let other transgressions go unnoticed. The crime that no one expected was the theft of The Board Game Clue On Skates from the Team Clue locker room prior to the Junior Showcase Tournament. Eyewitness testimony places The Board Game Clue On Skates on the premises when the Junior Showcase Tournament arena’s security system was engaged at 9:00PM on Friday. By the time staff unlocked doors to the facility on Monday morning, absolutely no trace of the beloved player/mystery game remained. This heinous crime is being investigated feverishly by both local authorities and the JST commissioner’s office. Team Clue fans have long anticipated The Board Game Clue On Skates to take its rightful place behind the bench as an AGM this season, but it seems they may be forced to rely on an outside hire. [BREAKING NEWS] This just in: word from Team Royals about the whereabouts of The Board Game Clue On Skates. We bring you now to the transmission-in-progress: “-cial forces unit was deployed under cover of night during the weekend to infiltrate JST facilities, recover the asset, and rendezvous at the Team Royals locker room. The operation was a flawless success, having gone unnoticed until the facility was opened today. As a result,” [the screen displays a video feed of The Board Game Clue On Skates sitting comfortably on a plush velvet couch in the sitting room of Team Royals Headquarters. There is a half-empty cup of tea on the coffee table.] “Team Royals will be adding our new guest to the payroll for the duration of the tournament as the Assistant General Manager. Why would we do such a thing? There are two benefits: first, we get the expertise of a very talented GM, and second, we get to deprive Team Clue of their security blanket. Psychological warfare begins well before the draft, dear audience. We will not be taking any questions at this time.” —-- Okay, that’s fun and all, but why did I really steal @MubbleFubbles from the JST team that’s named after him? What’s the point of all this? Super honesty moment: I didn’t really do this intentionally, I just haven’t been around the league long enough to know that MubbleFubbles is, in fact, The Board Game Clue On Skates. As everyone knows, the best thing to do when you make a social misstep is to lean into it as hard as you can, so that’s what I did. I’m the villain now, I’ve stolen my AGM from a rival team, and I regret nothing. I’m really excited to get some hype built up around the Junior Showcase Tournament - these rookies are rockstars and I want all of the VHLM GMs to see what they’re bringing to the table. If you’re competing in the JST, I can’t wait to see you on the ice. If you’re not eligible for the JST, consider supporting Team Royals! We’re the best team, and that’s by official decree, not an opinion.

Dumb thought regarding discipline: if we’re doing hybrid attributes, could we start discipline higher (like default 50 maybe) and reduce that stat when you increase checking stats, maybe? That would make hits less frequent as a baseline, and players with a focus on checking see a more substantial impact on their stats. Hope your pup doesn’t have too much stomach trouble from the sausages!

Oh, I'd like to apply!
