Mushrooms are hella underrated. I can switch out a pepperoni for a sausage or bacon, but I'm not switching out mushrooms if I can help it.

 

2. What are you most excited about for the upcoming season? 

Hello new attributes! Actually less about the meta leaving, and more because any major change like that is inherently interesting 

 

3. Sweat pants or Mesh shorts when lounging around the house? 

Pajama pants ftw. Especially when I'm on work calls, a polo shirt with pajama pant bottoms off screen is not too uncommon at all.

It's hard to say, but it's definitely interesting to see the moves Warsaw has made.  I'll be watching them closely to see how the next few seasons go.

2. With a three week offseason, what are you looking forward to most to keep the interest up?

Hopefully there's a lot of media this offseason to keep us all involved!

[der meister 3,179]

1 - pretty similar to the old one - heavy in speed, defense, and checking.

 

2 - the next draft. I've never had a player in the E and I'm curious how that will go.

 

3 - absolutely not. Same way a hotdog is not a sandwich.

 

 

1 - Any changes to your player when you Respec for hybrid attributes?

2 - how's the weather where you are? I'm sick of snow...

3 - what team in the NHL would you rebrand or relocate, and to what/where?

A:

1. I wanted to be a goal-scoring winger, focusing on SC fast with the old build. Although now it's looking to be a more well-rounded player, especially early in my career... So I can make the best usage of the TPE.

2. Prior to a few days ago it had been grey skies for a while. Although these last few days have been great weather, can't complain with 13°C (56°F)

3. Arizona Coyotes to the Hamilton Steel

1. Definitely excited to see how the new attributes effect overall league scoring. I wonder if we'll see completely new players taking home trophies at the end of the season.

2. Probably my first season, S73. Everything was locked down irl, and VHL definitely was filling up alot of my time, meeting new people and learning how the league worked, it was a nice escape. A close 2nd is S78, when Warsaw took home their 1st and only championship.

3. May 13th, 2013. I'd probably make a plan to be in TD Garden that night. Only real ones will know.  

 

Q1. Do you expect your player to have a better season in Season 83, or a worse one? Are you building them differently than before the hybrid attributes?

Q2. If you had the power to relocate 1 single VHLM/VHLE/VHL Franchise, where would you move them, and why?

Q3. What would be the theme song to a sitcom about your daily life?

2. I would relocate Mississauga Hounds to Melbourne Bushrangers. Because the league needs an Australian Team.

I'm so confused at this point I have no idea.  Poke Checking sounds fun and what even is GR?

Answer

1. I guess I will say walnut, then!

2. Spain, that is actually at the top of my list. My dad's side of my family live out there.

3. Time will tell! I can't imagine skating is ever a bad attribute, it has always been very valued in my past builds. I am sure one will be discovered.

 

Ask

1. Are you happy with your new players build, or if you haven't done it yet do you know how you will build them?

2. Now that the meta is over for now, who do you see as the new favorite to win the Continental Cup?

Yes, but as a goaler that kind of feels like cheating. There's been talk of hybridizing goaler attributes if it turns out they're too good, but we'll see what happens with that.

HOT TAKE: Helsinki. They're finally coming out of their rebuild, and the lineup looks good.

1. My initial reaction was "hey, this might keep me around in the league past this player." It's certainly leading to a variety in player builds, but really it's minor differences. The underlying problem may still be there, just due to the sim engine. I personally would like to feel like building a playmaker or a more physical is a viable path, but is that just always going to be sub-optimal? I would assume the best thing to do is still try to maximize scoring, defense, puck handling, and skating. Just, instead of 99/40 SC/PA, it's going to be something like 87/65 for every player, and then pump up PH/DF/SK in an efficient manner.

 

2. As of late, it's been watching Disney movies, particularly animated feature films. Starting from the beginning chronologically with Snow White a few weeks ago, I'm up through The Little Mermaid. A lot of them I had never actually seen, and several I'd maybe watched as a kid long ago. Up through this point, I'd say some of my favorites are Alice in Wonderland (hence the new avatar), Robin Hood, and The Aristocats. Alice in Wonderland and Robin Hood I didn't really watch growing up, but The Aristocats is one we had on VHS so I watched quite a bit growing up, so that one is definitely a bit of a nostalgia favorite.

 

3. Can I pick none? If not, then I'll say a streamer, because that's a job, but since I'm not getting paid anyway, I'll just never stream. Or like, board game player. That's not really a job, but if I'm not getting paid, I'll just do what I like to do on my own time and call it a "job" for the sake of this question.

 

 

QUESTIONS

1. Do you think the league could benefit from extending player careers?

3. Imagine a game in which Marie and Berlioz tie for first place. The next best score was Toulouse. Did Toulouse finish in second or third place? Explain.

1. Do you think the league could benefit from extending player careers?

 

I've seen people from other leagues say that they don't like our fixed career lengths. I know in the EFL, while I was there, your career can go on really long depending on what position you play. Same with the PBE--I'm pretty sure I talked to a couple people in my short time there who had their players for upwards of two full years.

 

Personally? I wouldn't like it, but to each their own. I'm from the instant gratification generation, and creating a player and making that initial build is much more fun than fighting off depreciation IMO.

2. What were your career goals for your player when you created, and how are you progressing towards those goals?

 

I don't know exactly what I'm looking for, but I think I'm going to play as a player first and foremost. My last couple have had their careers tied up in GM business, and now that I'm no longer a GM I think I'm going to enjoy the opportunity to experience my career on my own terms. That doesn't mean I'll bounce around in FA every offseason, but it does mean that I'm not going to feel bad about wanting to play somewhere competitive. As a new player, there hasn't been much that I have done, but there's a lot that I will do and I'm looking forward to it.

3. Imagine a game in which Marie and Berlioz tie for first place. The next best score was Toulouse. Did Toulouse finish in second or third place? Explain.

 

Third. Two people finished ahead of Toulouse, therefore Toulouse is third.

 

As a side note, I don't know if that's meant to refer to Berlioz the composer, but as a bit of a music nerd I was thrown for a bit of a loop by the name followed by a mention of the "next best score"--though I guess that could work on multiple levels.

1. I think this will be a very interesting season.  I hope to see some passing oriented builds shine.  I think scoring will be down and it will be interesting to see if things feel off how the league reacts.

 

2. I have not.  I can see myself at my current level for years unless I find the community to be not to my liking.

 

3. The last song I listened to was Scandroid's "Less Than Zero" (feat King Protea).  Interesting synthwave/pop with vocals, which to me seems unique in that most synthwave doesn't have a lot of sustained vocals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_iFSxNxAoQ
