How To Get Started

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE VICTORY HOCKEY LEAGUE!

You're probably wondering how to get started! First, once you Create Your Player, a post will automatically be made for you in the Player Creation forums. Once your player is made and the post is up, VHLM GMs will offer you contracts to join their team for the remainder of the season. You'll be eligible in the next VHLM Dispersal Draft, which happens in every offseason. If you create during the playoffs or during the offseason, before said draft, you won't have to sign with a team, but you'll get be drafted straight away.

The team that drafts you hold your rights for 3 seasons, or up until you start a season with over 250 TPE, at which point you will be called up by the VHL team that drafts you during your class' VHL Entry Draft.

 

You will have to create Point Tasks in order to improve your player. This is how you make your player better. There are a number of different ways to improve your players. In fact, you can get up to 12 capped points (or "TPE," Total Points Earned) per week from normal activities. See this thread for more information on TPE.
 


HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR PLAYER

> Submit a weekly point task - POINT TASKS
A point task is a media spot (500-word long article about anything league-related), graphic/video (something cool, like a signature or a logo redesign, needs to be league-related), podcast (again, needs to be league-related and a minimum of 15 minutes).

You can only do one of these weekly, and they are all worth 6 TPE. Alternatively, if you don't have time to do a 6-TPE point task, you can claim welfare for 4 TPE, or more if you made a PT in an affiliate sim league this week.


> Post a VHL.com article - VHL.com Articles
Easy points. Write only 150 words about whatever you want, league-related, and get 2 TPE.

 

> Post a VHL.com graphic - VHL.com Articles

Make a simple graphic, like a player trading card, for 2 TPE.

 

> Record a VHL Radio podcast - VHL Radio

Record a podcast at least 5 minutes in length and you'll receive 3 TPE.
 

> Participate in press conferences - Press Conferences

Pressers are basically Press Conferences like what they do in more professional sports leagues. You can get 1 TPE for every 3 questions you answer or for every 5 questions you ask to other players, up to a maximum of 2 TPE weekly

 

> Answer trivia questions - Trivia

Answer two weekly trivia questions correctly for 2 TPE. Answers are typically found in the VHL League Discussion section, in the VHL Games section or in the Hall of Fame section on the portal. At the end of the season, there is a trivia leaderboard where you will earn more TPE for every question you answered correctly!

 

> Review media - Reviewing Logs

You can review any point task or biographies and rookie profiles. Reviewing one media gives you 1 point (2 for biographies and rookie profiles), and you get 1 TPE for every 4 point you get, up to a weekly maximum of 2 TPE.
 

 

As a guide on how many of these activities you can do each week, please refer to the table below:

Main Point Task (For Up To 6 TPE/Week)

  Review Other Members Main Point Tasks (Up to 2 TPE) Recruitment Team (Up to 12 TPE)

You Can Earn A Maximum Of 12 TPE/Week Through These Activities Combined

 


OTHER WAYS TO GET BETTER

 

> Go to the Practice Facility - Practice Facility
Each week, someone will post a link which you have to post in in order to claim the 2 free TPE each VHLM'er gets each week. Just post in the thread each week, and you'll get that 2 TPE.


> Write your player's Junior Review - Junior Review
Write about your player's career prior to joining the VHLM. This is required to be 400 words long and rewards you with 5 TPE.

> Write your player's Prospect Scouting Report - Prospect Scouting Report
In the season prior to your VHL Draft, write up a scouting report focusing on your player's pros/cons and his VHLM career to date. Like the Junior Review, this is required to be 400 words long and nets you 5 TPE upon completion.

 

The Junior Review and the Prospect Scouting Report are two of the five Career Point Tasks available for you to participate in over the course of your player's career. The other three tasks are the Rookie Experience, Veteran Presence and Biography, however these will not become available to you until after you've been drafted to the VHL and later. 



HOW TO CLAIM YOUR TPE AND UPDATE YOUR PLAYER

 

Once you’ve done your point tasks, you will have to claim them on the league’s portal before you can add the TPE to your player’s attributes. To find out more, click HERE.

 

YOU SHOULD BE SET!

Be sure to ask a member if you have any questions.  A thread has already been made for you in the Introduce Yourself forum, tell the VHL a little more about yourself in there! It’s also a good idea to join the league discord where you’ll be able to get answers to any questions that you have almost immediately.

Best of luck in your upcoming VHL career!
