Bana Blab #15

[Banackock 8,037]

Well, the week is over and a new week is about to begin. Spent the day doing some minor yard work, gaming, eating and enjoying my final day off before I go back to hell for 8 days. Fortunately, after spending 8 days in hell, I'll be off on a 8 day vacation to the beautiful mountains to do some hiking and fishing - so nothing can fuck up this week... right?! Time to get all the stuff done for the week so I can focus on getting shit done, speeding the time up and getting on to paradise. Off-season is dwindling down for the league, so let's get to the 15th BLAB!

 

• VHLM draft was tonight. I popped into the stream for a little bit. No clue who was on it other than @Acydburn and @Rayzor_7. There was another guy that sounded like a real yahoo! Congrats to all of the players drafted, good luck and enjoy yourselves in the VHLM. It's an awesome league if you just focus on the "NOW" and not the "THEN". The VHL is great and that's the goal, but enjoy the little things too. 
• Seattle traded for @16z. Trade talks started late, late last night after a little bit of an announcement from the Queen's GM @McWolf. I tried to get Kankkunen from him a season or two ago, so once I seen the opportunity pop up, I did not hesitate. The member has always intrigued me and their player is good with even more potential. The trade talks went well, we both caught some sleep and then today just gave some time for other GM's. End of the day, we got our man and hopefully we helped London the best we could too. Tried to be as fair as possible given the circumstances and help out everyone involved (both GM's, teams and the players involved). Enjoyable, easy talks are always sweet!
• @Rayzor_7 was finally hired as a manager and I was super pumped. Fuck yes! About time. I think he's gonna do good work in Helsinki and that those playing in HSK will eventually agree. I know I've been a GM forever and honestly, I love it still. I love meeting the new people, having the best of experiences with so many people and everyone coming together from all different angles and areas of life.. whenever that cools down, it will probably be my time.. Rayz was my heir to the throne and I felt so bad that it may take a long time... happy he finally got what he's deserved!

Jelly of the vacation but hope you have a blast and reel a few in! 

 

Didn't matter where I landed at first but super happy it was with a member I adore, happy to hear the talks went smooth and I also think London got a great return because that's what I was hoping for at the end of the day, I waived the NTC whenever he told me to, it was his deal to make and was blessed he honored my request
