Thoughts about the upcoming drafts

[WildfireMicro 426]

Hey guys and gals and everything in between WildfireMicro here to share some thoughts I've been having before the upcoming VHL draft and probably VHLE draft since I do plan on continuing to earn as much as I feel like I can. Armani Calamari's career has been pretty good so far in my opinion though I know that he has a lot of room to grow if he wants to be one of the greats. The VHL has been a great experience so far and has quite a different feeling to it compared to the kind of fourm leagues I am used to like the ISFL. In terms of VHL teams that have contacted me I currently think only the Warsaw Predators have reached out with an interview currently.

 

The Predators do have a great logo and color scheme so they would not be the worst team to go to. The Toronto Legion would also be interesting given that my player is from Toronto though he was born in Alberta. The Chicago Phoenix have a cool looking logo as well and that would be the third Chicago sim team I've been on in my sim career. The Prague Phantoms seem like a cool concept since Prague sounds a lot like plague and hey there would be ghosts around a plauge. And yes I am aware that is probably not the reason for the name. Lot's of good concepts and team names in the VHL and I am excited to see where I end up there. 

 

In terms of the VHLE it should be extremely interesting joining a league that is just starting from scratch. Armani was at one point scared that if he went to Europe he would get extremely homesick but those fears have been conquered in his time in America. What replaced those fears was excitement for showing people in a different country just how good he is and exploring various kinds of cultures. He has changed a lot since he first entered the league both as a player and as a person. I think that overall it should be very fun.

 

Personally I really like the quick results that every sim gives us and yes I am aware of the stream for those sims but I usually do not have the time to really watch the streams unfortunately. Thankfully however we do not have to wait for a long ongoing game thread for the results because honestly I personally do not like them. I usually prefer just posting the results immediately although I can see why people would like it the other way. The way VHL does it however I can quickly see how the games went and how Armani did in each of them. It is just easier for me personally.

 

Overall I am very glad I decided to join this league on a whim after hearing about it from the SHL. It had been overall a fun and engaging experience and I can tell that it is only just beginning. I just hope that my VHL locker room is as active as I hope it is. Thank you for reading and I hope to see you all on the ice!

I like the style of writing you chose, jounral/diary style is one of my favorites to read. I would like to point out a few flaws I see in your writing, and give an honest opinion. I noticed a lot of run-on sentences that are missing proper punctuation to help them out. A few commas in areas would be better on the brain and eyes. I would try to stick to first person POV as much as possible. I see some points where you refer to your player in the third person, which throws me off personally. A good example of this is when you said, "Armani was at one point scared that if he went to Europe he would get extremely homesick but those fears have been conquered in his time in America." That should be in first person not third, as later on you mention 'I' in a sentence in the same context. It's a noticeable flaw in the article for me. Apart from that, great content being covered here. Not many people are doing this, so I like the way you stepped outside of the box.

 

FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10
