He has indeed, quite a few including his recent one ranking GM's.

6). Where am I going this weekend?

1. Fall? I don't really know? I guess the big fall holidays are a big event. Halloween/Thanksgiving.

 

2. Is gas paid for? Is my safety guaranteed? Assuming both Re true and I am driving to Los Angeles that is 61 hours of driving round trip. That is like $16 an hour. I have driven across the country a few times and it is fun if you have someone with you who you can talk to. However, I don't think I would do it simply for the money.

 

3. I think @scoopis a trendy guy. Going to go with a trendy name. However, I can't even name my own player so.

 

4. Yes all stats should be given to me!

 

5. Between the two I have to go with Cholula. However Valentina's is better than both.

 

6. Always traveling! This weekend you are going to Milwaukee to for a day trip.

 

[ThePerfectNut 563]

1). What is your favorite thing you can ONLY DO IN THE SEASON FALL?

Celebrate Halloween since it's only in the Fall

 

2). Would you drive cross-country to pick up a package you didn't know the contents of for $1,000?

For 1 000$ only? Never, more then half of that is gone just from the gaz.

 

3). What will be Taylor Mourning's scoop next player name?

Tyler Mourning lmao

 

4). Is MDM a stat whore?

He for sure is and we like it

 

5). Cholula or Tabasco sauce?

Tabasco sauce because better

6). Where am I going this weekend?

1. Well raking leaves is probably more preferable to do in the Fall rather than leaving it until after the snow melts

 

2. Do I have to pay for fuel? If so, then fuck no. If not, then I’d consider it if the destination might be a good time anyway.

 

3. I think @scoop might have discussed this in a recent Fan 590, but it’s definitely the “favourite person” “favourite person” format. Probably “Rush Gambino” or something.

 

4. Oh fo sho, he’s definitely selling his body for money and also statistics.

 

5. I’m not familiar with Cholula so let’s try something new and go with that.

 

6. Somewhere to watch baseball. Maybe Seattle or something.

 NEW YORK AMERICANS EARLIER THAN LAST WEEK PRESS CONFERENCE 

For Week-Ending of October 16, 2022

 

1). What is your favorite VHL-related meme?  If not, make one up!

Obviously I'm biased, but any timezone related comments always make me smirk. Also rigging accusations are good. The copypasta is pretty good too.

 

2). What is the one thing you dread the most about keeping active in the VHL?

The actual act of posting Point Tasks and then also updating them within a week deadline

 

3). What country is @Quik in today? (hint: not canada)

I want to say he's of Indian descent so let's pretend he's in India. Either that or I'm racist.

 

4). As of 10/10/22, four teams in the NA are separated by 6 points, what will it take to get into the playoffs?

As of the day before the last regular season sim, it would have required us to beat Malmo and for LA to lose both games and Chicago lose two games. Only one of those things happened.

 

5). What is one attribute you will never utilize or add TPE to?

Every dog will have its day one day, but I suppose Leadership will be the further back on that list.

 

6). Should the VHL bring back the forum chat?

No, we already have Discord and who would go to a browser to IM anyway? It's not 2001.

I mean, I’m half Indian so you’re kinda right there lol, but also wrong on location. 

[ThePerfectNut 563]

1). What is your favorite VHL-related meme?  If not, make one up!

Any NY meme is always funny to see.

 

2). What is the one thing you dread the most about keeping active in the VHL?

The community in it.

 

3). What country is Quik in today? (hint: not canada)

Definitely Canada, or else UK or something.

 

4). As of 10/10/22, four teams in the NA are separated by 6 points, what will it take to get into the playoffs?

Points, better defence and scoring.

 

5). What is one attribute you will never utilize or add TPE to?

Fight lmao, Completely usless

 

6). Should the VHL bring back the forum chat?

Nah it was useless from when I saw it before

 NEW YORK AMERICANS EARLIER THAN LAST WEEK PRESS CONFERENCE 

For Week-Ending of October 16, 2022

 

1). What is your favorite VHL-related meme?  If not, make one up!
Honestly I don't really look at memes so I have absolutely NO clue lol

 

2). What is the one thing you dread the most about keeping active in the VHL?
Before it used to be my point tasks just because I felt like I was doing so many personal gfx for my page I was not getting motivation to do my tasks but now with VSN its a lot of fun! 

 

3). What country is @Quik in today? (hint: not canada)
Switzerland? IDK somewhere cool I bet. 

 

4). As of 10/10/22, four teams in the NA are separated by 6 points, what will it take to get into the playoffs?
Well we didn't make it cause I answered this super late so  boo. 
 

5). What is one attribute you will never utilize or add TPE to?
I've got a pretty consistent build going around 5 main stats so any of the ones outside of that are no bueno

 

6). Should the VHL bring back the forum chat?
Sure why not, they want forum activity, bring back a chat, right?

 NEW YORK AMERICANS SEMI FINALS PRESS CONFERENCE 

For Week-Ending of October 23, 2022

 

1). Who would win the Elmebeck award for New York?

2). What statistic surprised you about your player this season?

3). What is your go-to show when you are heading to bed?

4). When do you think the first snow will be where you live (mine is tonight) this year?

5). How many GM jobs in the VHL do you think will be available this off-season?  Would you sign up for one?

6). Do you enjoy your state/province's license plate?  If not, what would you change about it?

[Quik 4,113]

1). What is your favorite VHL-related meme?  If not, make one up!

 

Probably fisted, though that might be a bit played out. I'm also partial to the conspiracy that Blues are Best people here and out to get anyone not on the inside. Was very entertaining to hear how we'd even spend more of our free time just to screw people over lol,

 

2). What is the one thing you dread the most about keeping active in the VHL?

 

Doing any actual work. My time grinding in this league is past, so any time I need to put actual work in to improve my player is annoying lol.

 

3). What country is @Quik in today? (hint: not canada)

 

Uhh...when did you ask this question? I'll just say 4 weeks is a long time for a trip, and you really start to miss home by the end of it.

 

4). As of 10/10/22, four teams in the NA are separated by 6 points, what will it take to get into the playoffs?

 

Did you guys make it? I'd say it probably took a miracle if so, and would require time travel if not.

 

5). What is one attribute you will never utilize or add TPE to?

 

Pretty sure skating is useless for goalies, so probably that? As a skater, the only time I've ever updated fighting was as a meme, so definitely that one.

 

6). Should the VHL bring back the forum chat?

 

Yes, and find a way to revive MSN Messenger while you're at it!

[JardyB10 4,869]

 NEW YORK AMERICANS SEMI FINALS PRESS CONFERENCE 

For Week-Ending of October 23, 2022

 

1). Who would win the Elmebeck award for New York?

Probably @Garsh, because they're a cool guy who doesn't afraid of anything.

 

2). What statistic surprised you about your player this season?

There's a few fun things. Other than goals and +/-, he put up some of the worst statistics in his career/worst since his sophomore season. ALSO, every single one of Poopy's goals came on the PP, though I wouldn't necessarily call that "surprising" (65% of his career goals are from the PP).

 

3). What is your go-to show when you are heading to bed?

I don't watch much tv, never mind before bed. Sometimes I'll watch a Youtube video. That said, my girlfriend falls asleep with some dogshit Discovery+ shows on her iPad, and lately that has been Ghost Adventures.

 

4). When do you think the first snow will be where you live (mine is tonight) this year?

We've had an uncharacteristically warm October, but it won't be long. We could have some piddly overnight snows by this weekend, but I don't think any will stick until November.

 

5). How many GM jobs in the VHL do you think will be available this off-season?  Would you sign up for one?

At least one, and absolutely not. I'll prime myself for a S100 return to management, maybe.

 

6). Do you enjoy your state/province's license plate?  If not, what would you change about it?

I appreciate the simplicity of our plates, they're just green text, and 6 characters. I don't know if license plates should be all that flashy.

2). Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

3). Have you owned skates before?  What brand?

4). What song are you not afraid to sing in the car at 11/10 effort?

5). Do you remember your first shotgun of a beer?  How was it?

6). Do you own a record player?  Would you use it if someone gave you one?

Edited October 24, 2022 by frescoelmo

[BOOM 8,818]

1). Moscow made it to the cup finals - are you surprised how they handled Warsaw?

 

Not completely, but yes there is an element of surprise there. I was hoping they'd win, but thought it would be slightly harder.

 

2). Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

 

Sorry Elmo, but it's Oscar the Grouch. We are kindred spirits.

 

3). Have you owned skates before?  What brand?

 

No, as they wouldn't be much use down here.

 

4). What song are you not afraid to sing in the car at 11/10 effort?

 

Fight for your Right(to party) - Beastie Boys

 

5). Do you remember your first shotgun of a beer?  How was it?

 

Unfortunately I don't remember. I've consumed so much since then, my memory of those early times in non-existent.

 

6). Do you own a record player?  Would you use it if someone gave you one?

 

My parents did, but as for me personally, nope I do not have one. I doubt that I'd use one if given to me.

[JardyB10 4,869]

 NEW YORK AMERICANS I CANT BELIEVE ITS MONDAY PRESS CONFERENCE 

For Week-Ending of October 30, 2022

 

1). Moscow made it to the cup finals - are you surprised how they handled Warsaw?

I'm not surprised Moscow won, they are due for some more substantial success. I am shocked they managed to sweep the Victory Cup team though, that's whack.

 

2). Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

I like Cookie Monster, he's a shameless and extremely troubled addict, and that's funny.

 

3). Have you owned skates before?  What brand?

Indeed, I played hockey growing up so I got various hand-me-down skates. Couldn't tell you what brand, even currently. Bauer or CCM maybe?

 

4). What song are you not afraid to sing in the car at 11/10 effort?

I'm not a big car singer, but I wouldn't be afraid to belt out any song at 11/10 effort. The song Dirt Road Anthem by Jason Aldean is a running joke with me and a few friends, we belt the chorus out for that at 12/10. Also, preview of Christmas, but I was thinking of offering a solo acapella performance of any song for a stretch goal, and that will likely be passionately recorded in my vehicle should there be interest in that.

 

5). Do you remember your first shotgun of a beer?  How was it?

No, I remember embarrassingly little about virtually anything. There's at least one time where I would have instantly ejected a shotgunned beer, but I don't know if that would have been the case my first time. No doubt my first time was underwhelming though.

 

6). Do you own a record player?  Would you use it if someone gave you one?

I do not, and probably not. Theoretically I like the idea of playing really clean music, but then you're asking me to go out and OBTAIN RECORDS and SHOP and that's a no from me dog. My partner probably would use it on my behalf though, she's good for things like this.

[nurx 914]

1). Moscow made it to the cup finals - are you surprised how they handled Warsaw?

 

Not at all they were a very good squad this season.

 

2.) Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

I actually never watched sesame street as a kid so all I know is Elmo and cookie monster.

 

3). Have you owned skates before? What brand?

 

Actual ice skates with ice blades on them? No. I do own some roller hockey skates. Bauer Vapor x2.7. I believe those are also ice skates you just need to swap wheels for ice skate blades.

 

4). What song are you not afraid to sing in the car at 11/10 effort?

 

My guilty pleasures are Doja Cat and Olivia Rodrigo, but driver's license and good 4 u are complete bops and you old people can't convince me otherwise.

 

5). Do you remember your first shotgun of a beer? How was it?

 

I am under 21 so I am going to plea the 5th in this one...

 

6). Do you own a record player? Would you use it if someone gave you one?

 

I actually do. I was gifted it last Christmas. I use it sometimes but mostly when a few friends come over and I put albums of mutually liked artists like Yung Gravy or Green day. Nothing to common since I can't use earbuds and I specifically only listen to music with earbuds.

[ThePerfectNut 563]

Regualr shows is a good ass one

 

4). When do you think the first snow will be where you live (mine is tonight) this year?

6). Do you enjoy your state/province's license plate?  If not, what would you change about it?

Never really thought about it. Florida or Miami looks dope tho

[ThePerfectNut 563]

1). Moscow made it to the cup finals - are you surprised how they handled Warsaw?

Yes, I was expecting a Warsaw vs DCD matchup to be quite honest.

[Garsh 1,195]

1). Moscow made it to the cup finals - are you surprised how they handled Warsaw?

I'm surprised they beat them so easily, but not surprised they beat them.

 

2). Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

I never watched it when I was little but I guess my guy the Count.  His love of counting is inspirational.

 

3). Have you owned skates before?  What brand?

Not ice skates.  I had a pair of roller blades, no idea who made them though.

 

4). What song are you not afraid to sing in the car at 11/10 effort?

Pretty much every song, I love singing in the car.  I guess most recently it's been LittleVMills cover of I Really Want to Stay At Your House.

 

5). Do you remember your first shotgun of a beer?  How was it?

I don't think I have ever shotguned beer.  I've never been a beer drinker.

 

6). Do you own a record player?  Would you use it if someone gave you one?

I do not.  I probably wouldn't, seems like just a more expensive way to have music.
