Under the deadline

[der meister 3,236]

Yet another another hectic week in the Der Meister household. Duplicate word intended. It's almost 11pm on Sunday and I'm just getting to this now, to put it in perspective. 

 

I'm happy my player is starting to contribute more regularly. It seemed to get more consistent once I passed the 600 TPE threshold, which is both interesting and meaningless, as Simon don't give a SHIT about VHL TPE. Still, happy to be seeing hits and points, even in losing efforts. 

 

Man I hate the autocorrect on my new phone. It's really awful. Apologies for typos but like I said, it's late.

 

I can't believe there are multiple teams worse than D.C. this season. One? Sure. But the fact that there are several teams below us really goes a long way to demonstrating how lopsided the talent pool is here, how poorly distributed. The forced retirement kind of helps with that in the long run, but honestly I'm wondering more and more frequently if there aren't 2 or even 4 teams too many. 

 

All these years later and I'm still really interested to see how a league like ours would look if we had a relegation system. No VHLM and VHL segregation of franchises, just one league where teams move up and down through them. The draft could be a round of the bottom (VHLM) teams, then loops back to them again before adding the VHL teams. So the worst team in the M might pick 1st overall and 9th overall, if there were 8 teams, and the worst VHL team would pick 17th overall. Though with our recruitment pool, that might be too harsh. Maybe just the bottom 4 M teams get 2 picks.
