Answer

 

1. I am alright, nothing special though!

2. I would love to play LW or RW in the NHL. All the money is in football or baseball, but the passion is with hockey for me.

3. Other than English, I can speak some Spanish. But definitely need to study more before I would be ready to go to a Spanish speaking country, where I would need to know most of the language.

3. Who is your favorite music artist?

1. No. I thought I had a plan, but when it actually came time to add them, I didn't like the way it looked. Part of it had to do with being on a new team where I'm the top forward, so I wanted to favor my scoring attribute more than I otherwise had planned. I planned to mostly build efficiently and not put any of the hybrid attributes above 80, but to get my ratio to somewhere I was satisfied with, I ended up putting Offensive Vision up to 93. It wasn't an easy decision though, because I feel like it's so much wasted TPE. Probably like 50 TPE just to raise Scoring by 2 or something like that. Didn't feel great.

 

2. I really like the history of the league. I get an actual feeling of nostalgia for it when I'm away for a while, which is crazy to me, but I suppose I did join nearly 13 years ago. Although I'm not as involved as I have been in the past, I do also like the community aspect of it. I'd definitely consider people in the league to be my friends.

3. What video game do you think you've spent the most hours playing in your life?

1. Oh man, that’s a tough one, since the league’s going in the right direction. If I had to give one, though, it’d be that for the Fighting attribute on the portal, I wish it’d equal 1 FG, and then I could make my guy a fighter like he was before all this craziness. Same thing for Leadership and Passing. Let’s make arcane builds like those more appealing.

2. I have so many vivid memories from my time as a Miami player back in 74, but I think the biggest thing I remember was looking at my stats at the time and saying in the team LR, “I suck lol” or something like that.
3. Imma say Madden Mobile. Had it since the beginning of 2016 and I still play it regularly, despite my growing disillusionment with the game’s development.

 

1. Do you think the league is heading in the right direction?

2. What’s your 4th favorite flavor of ice cream?

3. Do you think you play it safe or take more risks than others?

[Mr Bohannan 114]

1. Do you think the league is heading in the right direction?

- Really depends what is meant by right direction and in which area. Is league heading towards right direction in terms of the new stats, will see in next couple of seasons.

2. What’s your 4th favorite flavor of ice cream?

- Vanilla

3. Do you think you play it safe or take more risks than others?

- Hard to say. I think my player takes the risks most of the time, but also plays safe, depending on situation.

 

Questions:

1. Why some of the teams are so lazy on Team Press Conferences?

 

As a former GM who asked press conference questions almost every week for close to 3 years...it really burns you out to be the question-asker. Some weeks I took over an hour to come up with six questions (though I always tried to ask new and interesting things every week rather than recycling things or asking lazy questions). That isn't an excuse, of course--I think a GM should certainly be dedicated enough to their team to do it--but it's much easier to answer every week than ask.

2. How hard did you find the re-distributing the stats/skills?

 

I'm a goaler, so not at all! I did some BoG work in creating the skills, which took a good minute, but haven't had to use them yet.

 

23 hours ago, Mr Bohannan said:

3. Would you date someone who makes money on Onlyfans?

 

No. My Discord name is "Chief of Horny Police", so I certainly couldn't reconcile one of those things with the other.

 

Real talk, though--someone who was on OnlyFans at some point...sure, whatever, I'm willing to forgive and forget and I like to think I'm open-minded enough to leave those things in the past. Someone who currently makes money there is a bit of a different story in that I think you get out of a relationship what you put in. I would never feel comfortable putting myself out there like that in a relationship because the only person I'd want thinking of me in certain ways is the one I'm in the relationship with, and to purposely make others think of me like that is super disrespectful to my partner. If someone wants to be on OnlyFans, that's 100% their right--I just personally want someone who has the same respect for me that I'd have for them.

1. If you could give a 10 TPE bonus to a prospect or rookie of your choice.. Who would it be and why?

I've got to be honest.  I really don't know any players in this category.  I'd want to help a teammate out though, so I'd see who needs help on the Phantoms.

 

2. How many goals do you think the top scorer will have with the new attributes? (previous 4 seasons had: 60, 72, 63, 58)  Wow, wild guess here, but I'm not thinking it's going to be all that different - maybe 65.

 

3. What is your favorite way to discover news from around the world or in your area?

Youtube clips from news media and podcasts.

 

1.  What is your favorite genre of music?

2.  Favorite breed of dog?

Answer:

1. I think my player will do pretty good and I hope London can be a dark horse/underdog this season, though the season where LDN dominates is coming

2. My room, I've built it into a true man cave of my dreams for the equipment part, setting not so much.

3. I'm building my dream house and buying a super nice pc, then maybe start an Esports org or hockey team, depends on how much I just won.

1. I like the team I have drafted this season. I definitely think I have the potential to win, but I'm not real fond of the fact that two of my three forwards are not going to get a lot of hits. Looking back, I definitely reached on picking Matty Fire, and a pick like that could cost me. Looking at the teams now that our draft is done, my guess is that I'll be in the top three along with @Berocka and @Gustav but last season I finished last in my group so what do I know.

 

Since coming back to the VHL like 4 seasons ago, my VHFL performances have not been great, aside from I think one season. There was a time long ago in the early days of the VHFL when I used to be more successful. I'm just not in tune with the best strategy yet. The scoring was a bit different back then as well, and I didn't even pay attention to the updates to the scoring until this season (though I think it might be just a couple seasons new?).

 

2. Depends on the drama, I guess. Obviously we want some personality, we can't all just be robots. I think someone like Robbie Zimmers who created drama, but in a way that it was hard to take him seriously and doesn't really affect anything, not bad for the league. It's good to have a heel. Drama when it comes to someone like Anderson or anyone creating multi's, not good. Drama around cheating = bad.

 

3. A wife, two kids, and a couple cats. Or maybe a cat and a dog. I grew up in a family with six children, and I'd say I'd definitely want no more than three. As for the pets, we were more of a cat family, so cats are what I'm used to. I like dogs as well, and cats and dogs together are extra adorable.

 

 

QUESTIONS

1. What is a bold prediction you have for the upcoming season?

 

2. If the VHL cleared all the rosters and held a draft to re-assign all the players, who would you draft with the first overall pick if you were in charge of one of the teams? Players retain their current career age.

 

3. What is your breakfast of choice?

I will be dead last fantasy is my weak point

[ke1vi 662]

QUESTIONS

1. What is a bold prediction you have for the upcoming season?

Anze Miklavz wins the most outstanding player award. I say this because of two things. 1. Anze Miklavz is my player, and 2. Anze Miklavz is currently leading the lead in Points Per Game. Now that I've pointed it out, it will probably be all downhill from here.

 

2. If the VHL cleared all the rosters and held a draft to re-assign all the players, who would you draft with the first overall pick if you were in charge of one of the teams? Players retain their current career age.

Saku Kotkakoivu - a highly earned TPE player that hasn't even hit depreciation yet. Also the league leader in points as it stands now. Great player to build around. 

 

3. What is your breakfast of choice?

It's on my bucket list to have a traditional english fry-up from somewhere in England. The breakfast gets chirped big time in memes but honestly everything about it looks amazing to me. I try and cook it myself every now and again but I just feel like having it from an actual restaurant would make it significantly better.

2. Maybe Tom Hanks as Forest Gump

 

3. I'd say ultimate Frisbee, we used to play that when I was in high school and that was pretty fun actually.

1. For myself, transitioning to adulthood and actually growing up would be needing to cook / plan out every single days meals. I love cooking for someone else or other people, but I'm lazy when it's just me.

2. I think defensemen meta will be exposed pretty quickly, probably within the first 2 seasons. I'm already seeing some stand out builds that use TPE more efficiently than others, and perform exceptionally well.

3. Probably mainstream, although I'm not really a top 40 person

 

1. Is the season going how you predicted?

2. If you plan to re-create a player in the future, what position would you choose?

3. Do you have any pets? If so, what type?

[KC15 340]

1. Is the season going how you predicted?

Not at all.  I didn't expect to see the Phantoms start tied for 5th place in their Conference, but with 3 OTLs, it easily have been a better start.

2. If you plan to re-create a player in the future, what position would you choose?

Not sure I am at this point, but I said that before creating this current player.  Probably D if I do.

3. Do you have any pets? If so, what type?

Yes, I have a coonhound mix dog.

1.Overall my player is pretty solid currently, would just like to get some more shutouts.

2.Very high for London, just have to see where we'll qualify.

3.I did not but I'm intrigued to see who won because I lived as an exchange student there for a month (thanks covid) and my family didn't have to high of regards for their old one but said he was alright, if I'm on the mark.

2. Trivia is fine, There was a glitch with the portal HoF for one of my questions but apart from that it has been fine

3. Nahh I think there is enough, if people want to they can, if they don't want to they don't have to

I have a lot that's exciting. I'm going to be moving to a new place, going to get myself some hobbies, and hopefully get myself some new friends! Aside from that, not really...I wish I did though. Maybe I'll pay a visit to friends of mine who either are or are going to be living in new places themselves.

3. I like Rainbow, Butterflies (both by the same person I forget who), then also 3 wooden crosses which are all against what I usually listen to.
