My Random VHL Thoughts - S81 - Part 1

[Fire Tortorella 2,653]

• The Lynx and Wumbo are off to a good start - we're currently 7-1, which is awesome. Due to a snaffu with the lines, I've only played 2 games so far, but more are coming. In those 2 games, I've played pretty well - 2 wins, .931 save percentage, and a goals against average of 1.00.
• So I might be a week late on this, but I want to touch on the additional affiliation TPE now available. All in all, I am in favor of the affiliation agreement between the VHL and the other leagues. Originally, it was "6 TPE from the VHL, 6 TPE potentially from other leagues". It was a good balance between allowing some work to be done in other leagues and still getting work done in the VHL. Now you can claim up to 8 TPE from other leagues, meaning you only need to earn 4 TPE here. It's a minor thing, as it's maybe only 5-10 less minutes of work, but it takes away content from the VHL, which I don't think is a good thing. It's not that hard to write 150 words of something, and if you can't be bothered to do that to participate in the league, I don't think you should have the opportunity to earn it outside of the league.

...yeah, pretty much. 

 

I don't mind this for people who pay attention and contribute in other ways than doing their smaller tasks, but someone completely silently earning 6 without the slightest idea or care of what's going on just got a free pass to earn 8 (or even reach the 9-TPE cap without reviewing in other leagues). If it were somehow possible to only make this happen for people who care, I'd love that, but obviously that's impossible to determine or enforce.
