Tetricide

@Smarch

@samx is this Greenland hate I see?

First of all thank you for the kind review! Second, yes I noticed this right as I posted this and was like noooo everything else was perfect! I could go in and fix it now, but...meh. Nothing too crazy. Edit: I changed my mind and removed it. Plus it looks a lot better now and I'm sure Tdan would appreciate it if they use it as their sig.

@Tdan04

I don't know the number, but it's definitely not arbitrary. Could be $30, or $60. You could weigh the amount of weeks there are in a season vs the potential value to see if it makes sense on a $ per week view. As far as the VHL goes, this season was 5 weeks. So that's $6/$12 (depending on if you'd rather a $30/60) per week. Perhaps you could leave it at this for just the free week instead of a full free week, that way you'd still have to do more in order to max earn every week. This is where the log in, claim the update, and apply the TPE comes into play which is why I said this As far as "pay to win" I think it's more "pay to advance" because you can be at 1400 TPE and have a bad player. I'm not sure if every person out there is checking every VHL/E/M player's update page to see if they're just a clicker or putting in work to get more TPE..but I feel how people earn TPE is no one else's business as long as they're following the rules and the updaters are doing their job before approving It also makes me wonder how many first-gens would be interested in something like this to retain them.

OK BUT HE KINDA SPITTIN HERE Haha funny about WF players ponying up money to earn the WF, but the interesting-funny is why the VHL hasn't introduced a "season pass." I think your idea about 2x the dono is nice, but I think we can dive into this further. Actually trash the 2x idea completely. Keep the donation rewards as usual. However, we can separately introduce a "season pass" where you can pay an additional $15 (or whatever price point is decided, but I feel this is fair) and you get a free week (6 capped TPE) every week for the entire season. Upgrade to the $30 premium season pass to get a full free week for the entire season. For obvious reasons, the user needs to claim the update and apply the points every week as well. I think this would be a great alternative for those who aren't artistically inclined enough to make a graphic every week, have the time to write out a thoughtful 500+ word article, or have any time at all to invest in their player but would love to see their player thrive in the VHL scene. Plus, think of the additional recruitment opportunities the recruitment team could muster up to get more people interested.

It's OK, idk who you are either but that's just because the M commish are IA Jokes aside, it's definitely something I think about sometimes with a community I've been a part of for 10 years now (we started in TeamSpeak). It used to be like 10 of us and now there's ~10x that...and there are a lot of times I see a name in either text or voice chat that I'm like who tf is that? And it's not that I don't want to know who they are that I don't know them...the community has just expanded a lot and I'm not as active as I once was. Especially now that I have more of my attention in the VHL. I'll probably be where you are now here in a couple years, except approaching my 40s and making PF/WF players.

4?! My best super coach payout yet!

Week ending 1 October, 2023 Answer all 6 to claim 2 TPE! 1. What's up, Marauders?! The season has finally ended, and we're officially heading into playoffs!

SLAVA UKRAINI!

Cole...in VEGAS? Is this a bad dream?

Crosby! I feel like his rookie season in the VHL is gonna be one to watch.

Look, there's no doubt Clueless Wallob @DMaximus deserved the Aiden Shaw last season. That's not what we're here to briefly discuss. Lachlan Summers @kirbithan was absolutely FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY on even being a nominee for top goalie. Summers not only had a .925 save percentage with a 2.40 goals against average, but also a .724 penalty shot save percentage...which may seem pretty bad, but when you compare it to the 76 penalty shots against it just kinda puts things into perspective there. Summers ended his 64 game season with 43 wins, 15 losses, and 6 overtime losses which, all stats considered, is pretty good. Summers was also instrumental in Davos' Continental Cup win with 12 wins out of 16 games played (none going into overtime), a .937 SV%, 2.47 GAA, and enduring 630 shots against.

I totally didn't see this at first lmao
