KC15 340 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Ok, so I have spent 5 years in the PBE (baseball sim league) and for most of those I have been studiously avoiding joining any other leagues. I hadn't planned on being that active in the league - maybe just puttering along at 50-60% commitment, but I got hooked early on and got sucked in. I'm now a minors GM and the head updater as well as a near max earner. I didn't want the same to happen in another league, but being a huge hockey fan back in the days of the Devils run to their three cups, I couldn't resist joining our affiliate, the SHL. Only a day or two later I couldn't resist joining the VHL - and then the GOMHL! I've experienced nothing but great fun from all three in my approximately 1 week in the leagues. In fact, I came to the VHL through the SHL as I am in a LR with a great bunch (Colorado Raptors) who all talked up the VHL - and now have been drafted by one of those great guys as he is the GM of the Mexico City Kings @Nykonax. When I compare my experience in the VHL with the PBE, I have to say I like the greater automation here. There is probably just as much manual work for the updaters on the backend, but it's so easy to update here by just clicking boxes for week claimed for, type of TPE claimed, etc. And it seems you don’t have to wait for a specific day of the week to be updated, but updaters are clearing the queue continually and then you can apply those approved TPE immediately. That kind of “immediate” reward is really great. I also think the visual presentation of the forum and portal are more appealing than in the PBE. It’s a very neat and clean look, though some things were still hard for me to find at first. That may be an issue in all leagues though – how to make things more intuitive for the rookies. So about not wanting to get sucked in – this article is my last task to get the full 12 capped TPE and I’m checking my discord far too often than is good for my life outside sim leagues.
