  1. 1. I didn't know that was the limit! I honestly think that it's alright, though I'd like to play for 10 seasons in the VHL at some point! It's understandable though lol 2. I'd like to witness the rise and fall of the VHLE! 3. I like it! It's a neat little thing! Ask 3: 1. What are your plans for today? 2. How far do you think someone with a lack of motivation but all the time in the world will get vs someone with limited time, but a hell of a lot of motivation? 3. What's your top travel destination, and why? 3b. (If you want to answer this silly question!) Why is it New Zealand?
  2. Omg mom famous post... I started a conversation in the comments !!
  3. Would it be fine if I made an article on silly trades?
  4. I used Photoshop in school, I have to say, Photopea is an amazing equivalent if you know what you're doing!
  5. My general flow was interrupted randomly at some point in the day when I got a notification on my phone from what felt like the worst app to be on. Twitter. Hell on earth for most people. I rushed back to the apartment I had and quickly turned on the microphone to start recording a podcast. "Hello one, hello all, my name is Agustin Martinez, and I'm here with a story. Now, this isn't just any story, it's a weird, silly story, and it's centered around one of the biggest points in most sports; the trade deadline. While yes, trading is important to some people, a minority of those few seem to seem to put a huge importance on trading. Of course, Rome isn't built in a day, and sometimes you can build up an empire with a few good pieces, but generally, I feel like some people put a huge importance on trades when they join a team's management. While I don't fully understand any of this, since I'm a literal fucking teenager, the idea of trades has been on my mind for a while. I have the power to single-handedly ruin a franchise, and maybe, I just might. And, anyways, let's get onto that story." I turned in my chair, an audible squeaking sound heard. I sighed and put my hand on my head, trying to remember that story I wanted to tell. After rambling about trades, I just forgot it at random. Sorry, I make the rules here. Anyways..." Now, was the hard part. What franchises did I hate the most, despite having zero opinion on any of them besides the Riga Reign, who I despised? "My first trade idea to ruin the league would be: Vancouver trades... uh... Pierre Marc Bouchard to the D.C. Dragons for You're Not Fucking Retiring. Maybe that's the most balanced trade out there actually... How about we add Vancouver's first? VAN 1st and Pierre Marc Bouchard for YNFR! How does that sound for ruining teams? Then uh... I heard Los Angeles and New York hate each other so how about we trade away Taylor Swift to the Mediterranean, since I hate her, and also trade Joseph Dubois and the 2nd round Los Angeles pick for New York's Maxim Anisimov! Since Los Angeles is last in the conference, that'll surely spice up New York's roster and also somehow, Los Angeles. Let's just dump Riga into the seas. And by that, I mean... I don't mean... but I do mean? Let's trade someone to Warsaw. How about we trade Axle Gunner and Tim Robinson and their first pick, just because I hate them, to the Warsaw Predators for Montgomery Burns. That's it. That's the trade." What else could I do that didn't involve me taking out a somewhat big chunk of a team and place it onto another? Let's try to move on from the absurd moves... "What about trading... Jack Dickins and Erik Thorvaldsson on Prague to HC Davos for... their third round pick and... uh... J-Johnny Tsunami I guess? I don't know, I'm just a lil guy, a lil goob. Don't come after me for these, these are purposefully bad. Thank you, good night!." And with that, recording had stopped. I uploaded this to Spotify, titled it appropriately; "How Do I Ruin You," then I laid back in my bed and sighed.
  6. For a little bit of context, I've been combining the SSL and SBA's storylines and I've tried to with the VHL, since Martinez is one of the... I guess, "core" players who I'm happy with, but I don't know if his story should be after, before, or during the SBA and SSL's story since I don't know what's going to happen to October's career in the SBA nor Zoe's in the SSL, but it's still fun to have storylines collide. For the next article I did that was worth 6 TPE, I wanted to highlight Martinez and Zoe hanging out and that was my sort of way of attempting to combine timelines, but now I'm curious if people would be fine with reading something like that from me, or if I should keep the VHL separate from the SSL and SBA! I have an entire timeline too, to highlight when each player was born in this timeline if I ever get confused!
  7. 1. Maybe, it'd be fun but, I feel like it'd be a bit more work for the people who write up things for the VSN since there's a lot going on around the trade deadline, but if they were up for the task, then I'd say sure! 2. Video games. A lot of them! That, or try to work on one of the many hobbies I have! 3. Any chocolate! Sour food too, but that's mostly for when I'm better! Chocolate is amazing though! Asking: 1. What do you do with a lost voice? I lost mine for about 3 days after getting some sort of throat infection or general sickness that affects your throat! 2. How has the VHL helped you, as a person? I forgot if I already asked this, so let's go for round 2 if I did! 3. Favorite things to do on a winter morning when it's still super cold outside?
  8. 1. I think my player's doing just fine for his barely over 200 TPE self! i think that with a bit of work he could be a lot better, but for right now, he's doing great for my expectations! 2. I don't know, I usually come on every day to check when TPE has been added to my TPE balance and use it, then wait until next week! 3. A peanut M&M. "But won't it rot?" Preserve it and put it in my eye socket when I'm dead! I just like M&Ms! Ask 3: 1a. Who is your player's render inspired from? 1b. Who inspired your player's personality? 2. How often do you visit the VHL website? 3a. What is your favorite drink? 3b. What is your player's favorite drink?
  9. Hi! I'm sleepy, I'm sick as a dog, and I'm SleepyPlayz, Star, or October! Just depends on who you talk to and where you ask! I don't have much creative inspiration and would rather lay in bed for the next 25 years. I unfortunately can't do that without losing out on a great player, so... here's this! Games 171-180 have been simmed, and I kinda wanna talk about it, and I'm not much of a hockey gal so please correct me if I'm wrong about something! I'm gonna go from 177-180 really quickly... 177 Mexico City vs Halifax 21st The lowest shots taken in this group of games, the Halifax goalie being the main downfall for the team as bad as that makes me feel to say! 178 Philadelphia Reapers vs Saskatoon Wild Highest total shots taken between teams, with the Reapers' ALTO getting 3 goals total! 179 Miami Marauders vs Mississauga Hounds The highest total shots taken by one team in these 4 sims (Miami), yet they still lost after Mississauga's only shot in OT1 goes in 180 Houston Bulls vs San Diego Marlins The only game here to have the opposition not score once!
  10. Oh yes, I should say! This is going to be claimed for 1/12 and 1/26!
  11. And someone else lower on the list was definitely crying, glad to be a part of this team
  12. Create new problems, solve old relationships, make up stories about your friend being a closeted gay girl because he wore a dress one time in middle school and it turned into an inside joke, a gag if you will, with your friends, and play hockey. You could say that was about all Martinez did during the New Year, and he doesn't mind it. He paid for his friend's tickets out of the country and back to the Philippines, and as he watched them go, he realized he'd be lonely again. The hotel he stayed at in Charlotte was comfy and big enough for one person, but he'd only be staying here for one more day anyways before he went to Mexico City. He was drafted there or something like that, he didn't really care for that right now. He sighed and stared at his phone. Maybe he really should try making some friends. But wait, what if they don't understand him, his problems, his anything? Would he be judged harshly by everyone because he was a social outcast who was "just another one of those types..." or would he be accepted for his behavior? He sighed, falling asleep in the hotel's bed. He grappled with the idea that he wasn't quite all he was made out to be, with his flimsy play on the ice and his less than stellar mood off of it, he figured he would at least drop down. "Fuck this place, and fuck the people in it." He muttered to himself. "I'm closer to being a professional hockey player, not them," he began in one of his long, manic speeches, "do they not understand the difference between a professional hockey player and their worthless selves?" He paused to take a breath, walking outside of his room. It was about 3:15 AM, no one was awake, at least no sane person in this hotel was. He walked out of his room and left the door stop in so he could come back whenever. He stretched and took a jog around the place. He sighed, his mind going through several different reviews of how this version of events had been playing out. "Maybe I really am not used to the idea of being in a spotlight after all. To be fair, it was 13 games, but... I was still pretty scared." He mumbled to himself as he walked through the halls, walls plastered with that backrooms-esque style wallpaper, a dull yellow color with a bit of brown as a trim, the only contrast from the actual backrooms. He looped around the hallway twice over before finally making his way back to his room at around 3:30. That little walk around was nice and relaxing. Hopefully he'd catch up on the rest of his sleep. He walked into his room and kicked the doorstop away, letting the door slam behind him. He walked towards the bed and flopped down on it, closing his eyes and waiting to fall asleep. When he woke up, someone came to collect him from his hotel room, a man dressed in black, the same one who'd picked him up from the airport when he landed here in Charlotte. "Hello, Mr. Martinez. I will be driving you to the airport at 3:45 PM, as your flight will be at 5:15 PM and I would much prefer if you were to be given a good amount of time before your flight." He nodded, staring at the popcorn ceiling in the hotel room. Time felt like it was ticking by at a second per minute, his mind stuck on various facts. He wasn't in the best mental state to begin with, maybe that's why he started having doubts. Well, being driven to the airport was nice. He rolled his suitcase out of the hotel and into the courier's car. He'd be transported to the airport and be free from Charlotte. It was nice here, but he wasn't really attached to it. He scooted over to the other seat, staring out of the window towards the east, the colder air making him shiver. He waltzed his way through the airport, boarding the plane. He was seated by the window, coincidentally getting an eastern view from the plane. What a nice view... all grey, sad, and muddy. When he landed, he was driven to a hotel room, somewhere closer to the airport for the night thanks to the time he landed and people being tired. He sighed, walking again was totally fun and totally wasn't some sort of drag. At least the weather was way nicer than Charlotte, he didn't feel as cold here. He was happy about that as he stared into the ceiling, going to the immediate problem; when the hell was their first game again? It wasn't at any time in the next few weeks, but he still wanted to know. Well, he'd know when he got a call. Martinez swan-dived his way into Mexico City's draft view and on draft night, he was selected 15th. Hey, that was pretty high, probably. He would gladly take it with a smile since he was drafted that high, but something about it felt a little weird, at least to him. Maybe it was just he wasn't used to the whole idea of being drafted high, being a teenager with low self confidence made him think he wasn't worth it. Maybe it was due to people online telling the world that he isn't as good as people make him out to be. Oh well, he'd show them on the ice. He'd show all of them. For the first time since being drafted by the Mexico City Kings, he geared up in the attire of a king, that fresh hockey suit weighing down on his shoulders, in a good way. He felt happy to be here. Finally, a home he could truly call his home. He had a grin on his face as he picked up his stick, getting ready for some action on the ice. (Thank you @VattghernCZ for the graphic of Martinez!)
  13. This is going to be a more silly little thing but I'm a little surprised though honestly, not by that much, that Martinez can actually score! Like, I guess I just didn't expect it or something like that because I remember looking over at his player about 70 TPE ago and seeing that he had 1 goal with Saskatoon and I thought that'd be it for a while but, no, he has... 8 goals this season in 18 games? I think I'm reading that right! I don't know how good or bad that is for a hockey player since I don't play hockey and I'm not the biggest hockey fan ever, but I feel like that's pretty good, right? At least for someone at his skill level, it seems pretty good! At 170 TPE, he's got high OV with 70 and I'm actively now trying to improve his PH with the STHS stats by getting DK up to maybe 20, same with SH for right now before I focus most of my energy on building his offensive repertoire!
  14. 1. I feel like it's fair, to be fair I don't have much of a reference from irl hockey or the previous update scale, but I think the way the updates are, it's fair for all users! I haven't seen much complaining about it in the VHL discord either so that's a big plus! 2. I think everything in the league is perfectly fine as is currently! 3. I was never in the VHL so I wouldn't know what to say on my favorite player! So instead, I'll say my favorite user's player, or something along those lines! I like Inker Belle (WildfireMicro) because the name's cool! Ask 3: 1. When has the league gone through a drought of anything in your opinion, and how do you think that helped or hurt the league in any way? 2. If ice hockey never existed, do you think a similar sport sim league to ice hockey would take over? 3. If you could make a sticker and trading cards of your player, how much do you think they'd be worth?
