2.) If you pay attention to sims, do you remember a specific game this season where your player really performed? What game is it?

 

3.) Which HBO television series is superior, Oz or The Wire and why?

 

4.) Moscow still hanging in there, 2nd in the VHL, even on a 4 game losing streak. What should we do to break our losing streak?

 

5.) You've signed a contract with a sports card company to autograph some cards. On 10 of the cards, they want you to write your player's catch phrase under the signature. What is the catch phrase?

NEW QUESTIONS

 

1.) Are you active in any other sim leagues?

2.) What are your thoughts on Moscow's season so far?

3.) What are your thoughts on your individual season so far?

4.) What is your favorite coffee based drink, if it's not "just coffee"?

5.) On a scale of thin crust to Chicago style deep dish, how thick do you like your pizza dough?

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

[gorlab 4,321]

1.) Are you active in any other sim leagues?

I am not. I usually tend to be active on one league at a time, and I'm permabanned from most of the other leagues, so it's just VHL for me. 

 

2.) What are your thoughts on Moscow's season so far?

I think we're doing really well, honestly. We may not be as dominant as last season, but we're still one of the clear strongest teams in the league, and we've set ourselves up for a good shot at the cup again.

 

3.) What are your thoughts on your individual season so far?

Slightly disappointing but the last 4 games have been lit. SIM GODS PLEASE KEEP BLESSING ME. I BEG OF YOU.

 

4.) What is your favorite coffee based drink, if it's not "just coffee"?

I'm a coffee fan but I disgrace the lifestyle by adding sugar and cream. Double double gang. I don't feel so bad because I know some real animals who order like 3 sugar/3 cream or even quad-quad. 

 

5.) On a scale of thin crust to Chicago style deep dish, how thick do you like your pizza dough?

Not a big fan of thin crust tbh. I prefer a nice bready pizza. Never had any true Chicago/NY style deep dish, but I do like stuffed crust pizza tbh. 

 

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

Two others, three total. Jody 3 Moons, Bobby Digital, and Jet Jaguar. No HoFers among them.

1. Yea, in fact SBA and EFL are my main leagues.

2. It's been aight, but we can for sure do better.

3. Aw, it's been disappointing for sure, however, it's major improvement from last year.

4. No idea to be honest lol.

5. Very thick and crusty, like Gorlab's mustache. 

6. This is actually my first one haha.

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

 

1) I am not I have a hard enough time keeping up with VHL let alone any other sim leagues. My time to do that would have been in like high school

2) Not as pretty as last season, but as long as you make the playoffs it's an entirely new season from there.

3) Not as good as last year, I will be lucky to reach a point per game. I think scoring is down team wide though compared to last year.

4) Nothing coffee is gross, I don't even like coffee flavored ice cream

5) I can do either or, the more important part is just the pizza being a quality pizza. I guess if I had to choose I would do deep dish though.

6) 6

[Kyle 667]

1.) Are you active in any other sim leagues?

No

2.) What are your thoughts on Moscow's season so far?

We're doing a great job but I think we're better than what we're playing.

3.) What are your thoughts on your individual season so far?

I've been playing exactly how I thought I should be. I'm happy about it.

4.) What is your favorite coffee based drink, if it's not "just coffee"?

Just coffee works fine for me.

5.) On a scale of thin crust to Chicago style deep dish, how thick do you like your pizza dough?

Think crust NYC style.

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

Ahhh 6 I think.

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

1. I'm active on EHM in a German league, but like a third of us are from outside of Germany haha.

2. After today's sim results I am feeling quite good, but we still have a long way to go.

3. Really happy with my players production, almost to the point where I'm slightly worried I won't beat it next season

4. Iced capped with a shot on caramel and vanilla from Tim Hortons, to die for.

5. The perfect in between, Dominoes.

6. Nate Telker is the first and only so far, while younger brother Brandon Telker works his way up the youth ranks back home.

New Questions:

1) If every member of the VHL were dropped into a battle royale map like the Hunger Games, who do you think would win and why?

2) If you had to be stuck on an island with one VHL member, who and why?

3) Should locker rooms be on the top or bottom of the VHL forum?

4) What is an unpopular opinion on something that you have?

5) If I gave you $5 for free to bet on any team to win the cup, would you pick Moscow or someone else?

6) What is your favorite joke? 

[gorlab 4,321]

1) If every member of the VHL were dropped into a battle royale map like the Hunger Games, who do you think would win and why?

I believe the winner would be elite-level street fighter Robbie Zimmers. He'd have everything to win prepared before hand.

 

2) If you had to be stuck on an island with one VHL member, who and why?

I don't know of any survival enthusiasts on VHL, so I'm going to go with JardyB10. I feel like he would be resourceful and his farmer training could be helpful.

 

3) Should locker rooms be on the top or bottom of the VHL forum?

IMO they should be on top. I find myself sort of neglecting the LR since it's all the way at the bottom, but I don't want to make anyone alter it for me.

 

4) What is an unpopular opinion on something that you have?

US President Donald Trump isn't an idiot.

 

5) If I gave you $5 for free to bet on any team to win the cup, would you pick Moscow or someone else?

I'd probably put it on Calgary tbh. Commish/Simmer rig potential is high.

 

6) What is your favorite joke? 

I can never remember sociable jokes, so I'll go with the coffin/funeral dance meme that has become popular recently.

6.) How many other players have you had in the VHL?

1. I am absolutely not active in any other sim leagues, because sim leagues are a waste and a bane on society to begin with run on sentence.

2. Wow, I am so impressed with you guys. You're all so cute and good at hockey.

3. I am doing fantastic in the VHLM, I am the best player on my team, and carrying the team on my back. Big flex.

4. Absolutely a Frappucino. Now that I mention it, I am going to get one tomorrow.

5. A solid 6 out of 10 I'd say. Pizza Hut's 5 Cheese Stuffed Crust is probably my favorite.

6. Just one other, and that was the greatest D man of the 61-69 era, Robert Malenko.

I'm gonna say @Phil. Apparently he's swol and smart, so I'm gonna say he wins.

2) If you had to be stuck on an island with one VHL member, who and why?

I'm gonna say @ContinentalCup036 since I already know you. That seems pretty important in that situation.

3) Should locker rooms be on the top or bottom of the VHL forum?

RIP Locker rooms outside of Moscow, and even then, we barely count. Doesn't even matter at this point.

 

On 4/23/2020 at 1:01 AM, ContinentalCup036 said:

4) What is an unpopular opinion on something that you have?

NHL needs more exposure in non-traditional hockey markets. Adding a team to Hamilton or QC does nothing for the league. But the Florida Panthers should move somewhere else.

5) If I gave you $5 for free to bet on any team to win the cup, would you pick Moscow or someone else?

I'd pick another team. If Moscow wins, great. If another team wins, I get $5.

Dallas Cowboys.

2. Jet Jaguar, his production off ice i would hope to be good as well!

3. Top, easy to find.

4. Popeyes fries taste blander then they look

5. Still Moscow, gotta keep that faith!

6. Why did victor make the trade? To fleece the other team

4. Uhh, 2k is very good at doing what their community wants.

5. Someone else

6. I don't have any

[Kyle 667]

1) If every member of the VHL were dropped into a battle royale map like the Hunger Games, who do you think would win and why?

Sterling because he has the ban hammer.

 

2) If you had to be stuck on an island with one VHL member, who and why?

Victor because he seems like he has good survival skills.

 

3) Should locker rooms be on the top or bottom of the VHL forum?

Top.

 

4) What is an unpopular opinion on something that you have?

I'd rather be cold than warm.

Moscow

Lmao I'm a pampered white collar gen Z white boy, but at least we could chat VHL history til we died.

[Fire Tortorella 2,653]

NEW QUESTIONS

 

1.) Moscow swept Malmo 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Was there ever a doubt?

2.) Have any of the other playoff series in the VHL or VHLM surprised you?

3.) Is the extremely high level of parity good or bad for the league?

4.) Would you be willing to be a 3rd line player for your first season or two if it meant that we had deeper teams?

5.) Does Moscow have the best logo in the league? If not, then who?

6.) Who has the best username in the league? Not allowed to pick yourself.

As if I didn't know that, I just had to make something up!

[gorlab 4,321]

1.) Moscow swept Malmo 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Was there ever a doubt?

No doubt, but I'm surprised they didn't manage to sneak one game from us, like they did in the reg. season... Poor Malmo.

 

2.) Have any of the other playoff series in the VHL or VHLM surprised you?

Haven't followed the VHLM at all, but DCD/SEA going to 7 games is probably the biggest surprise for me. I thought SEA would have got DCD up and out of there within 5-6 games.

 

3.) Is the extremely high level of parity good or bad for the league?

Good, except for the fact that individual player stats are way down and scoring totals are in the garbage can. Hurts current-gen members HoF chances IMO.

 

4.) Would you be willing to be a 3rd line player for your first season or two if it meant that we had deeper teams?

For this Moscow team? Yeah, probably. For most other teams? Probably not.

 

5.) Does Moscow have the best logo in the league? If not, then who?

No, because it's too much of a tall/skinny boy. To me, the best logo in the league is probably Davos. Simple, clean, timeless. Horrible franchise, but I think their logo is legit.

 

6.) Who has the best username in the league? Not allowed to pick yourself.

Always been partial to MexicanCow123, myself. Something about how generic, yet intriguing, it is, does it for me.

1. NO sir, we have been on fire as of late.

2. No, haven't really been paying attention to them.

3. It's great, just be glad you don't have to witness @chillzone BRK dynasty in the SBA.

4. For sure, as long as we win, I'm good with it.

5. Easily, no doubt about it.

6. Banackock haha, in my opinion.

1) No doubt at all considering Malmo has beaten us 3 times in the last 2 seasons

2) Not really. Riga beating Prague was nice for us since Prague seemed to give us trouble

3) Good, why would competitive teams be a bad thing? 

4) I would not. It already sucks being a low tpe rookie on the second line getting 30 points in a season, third line would be awful

5) Prague has a pretty dope logo too. Must be an expansion team thing

6) Muffins does because he changes his discord name every day to something funny with Muff in the name. For example, SquidMuff, etc. 

[Kyle 667]

1.) Moscow swept Malmo 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Was there ever a doubt?

I was pretty confident going in.

2.) Have any of the other playoff series in the VHL or VHLM surprised you?

Not really, we have a lot of good teams.

3.) Is the extremely high level of parity good or bad for the league?

I think it's a good thing, makes things exciting.

4.) Would you be willing to be a 3rd line player for your first season or two if it meant that we had deeper teams?

I am a third line player now lol.

5.) Does Moscow have the best logo in the league? If not, then who?

I like Davos' logo personally I think it's really classy.

6.) Who has the best username in the league? Not allowed to pick yourself.

Nagger

[Steve 1,949]

1.) Moscow swept Malmo 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Was there ever a doubt?

      No, Moscow all the way.

2.) Have any of the other playoff series in the VHL or VHLM surprised you?

      D.C. was kind of a surprise. Good on them.

3.) Is the extremely high level of parity good or bad for the league?

      Depends on if your player is one of the handful that are great.

4.) Would you be willing to be a 3rd line player for your first season or two if it meant that we had deeper teams?

      You always have to work for ice time. Nothing wrong with being a 3rd liner.

5.) Does Moscow have the best logo in the league? If not, then who?

      I really like Prague's logo

6.) Who has the best username in the league? Not allowed to pick yourself.

      gorlab of course.

1. No I don't think there was, when push came to shove we had the better team. 

2. Not really per-say, but I remember one VHL series with a team up 2-0 in games and then lost 4-2.

3. I think it can be bad if its constantly extreme and the numbers continue to not add up. 

4. Yeah I would but if i'm on the 3rd line I'd love to see that team lol. 

5. I kinda like Riga's, but the Moscow logo has grown on me!

6. kylrad, kinda has a nice ring?

New Questions:

 

1) Where do you think we match up best and worst against Seattle?

2)  Hypothetical Question - How much money would it take for you to permanently leave the VHL? Like if I paid you x dollars to leave for good

3) When opening up the game thread for these playoff games, what is your strategy? Go right to the comments and guess of that if we won or lost, open up the game and close eyes to all eyes, or view the live stream on twitch?

4) Can you think of a more exciting catch phrase for us to use than MOSCOW MOSCOW MOSCOW?

5) When we won the cup last year how did you celebrate? If we win again will celebrations be same or something different?

6) What is your favorite way to earn tpe on here? VHL.com, media spot, graphics, etc?

 

[gorlab 4,321]

1) Where do you think we match up best and worst against Seattle?

I think we match up best down the middle. Gritty & Jaguar > Green & Stark. Goaltending is a close second IMO.

 

2)  Hypothetical Question - How much money would it take for you to permanently leave the VHL? Like if I paid you x dollars to leave for good

I think $50,000 would do it. Although I'd probably leave for like 15k as well.

 

3) When opening up the game thread for these playoff games, what is your strategy? Go right to the comments and guess of that if we won or lost, open up the game and close eyes to all eyes, or view the live stream on twitch?

I've been trying to attend live sims on youtube, but when I miss them, I go into the discord and announce I missed the live sims, then quickly run to the game threads without seeing anyone reply and hope for the best.

 

4) Can you think of a more exciting catch phrase for us to use than MOSCOW MOSCOW MOSCOW?

No, not really tbh. I've been trying to think of one, but all I got is the Moscow/Malmo 'It's Game Time!' meme.

 

5) When we won the cup last year how did you celebrate? If we win again will celebrations be same or something different?

I held Victor and cried tears of joy for 15 minutes straight. I plan to do the same thing this season.

 

6) What is your favorite way to earn tpe on here? VHL.com, media spot, graphics, etc?

Graphics and VHL.com graphics... otherwise known as making graphics. I'd like to do a podcast one day though, just waiting to be invited on to one.
