Best at graphics: Wasty

With no disrespect to the other talented artists of the SHL, I think Wasty is the best at graphics. I know he puts a ton of time, effort, and pride into his graphics, and it shows.

Renomitsu · 06-11-2020, 08:08 PM

In all honesty, I’d love to talk about most of these awards, but I suspect the meaningfulness of my answers might be lost if I focused on all of them – like how lucky I feel to be managed by the Buffalo Stampede, who trash talk like none other. I do also feel as though there’s a bit of a controversy around “most dedicated” – so I’ll also most certainly be avoiding that.

My task will focus on two users in particular: my boy @GeckoeyGecko and, of course, the immortal Wasty. First, our Treecko-loving lizard friend and League of Legends/Galio/bird enthusiast Geck. He’s beloved across the site for his easy-going and down to earth nature – which isn’t really captured well by ‘funniest user’ – honestly, I think humor is just a small bit of his personality. Geck was one of the first users I was introduced to outside of my own SMJHL team as he flitted between the VHL and SHL communities (though he only has a player in one). And I think this is demonstrative of how he can serve as a bridge between communities: he takes jokes in stride, even (or especially) at his own expense, makes killer pixel graphics, and doesn’t even mind being memed. I’m not sure if the ‘funniest user’ is perfect for Gecko, but I do think he needs some recognition for the value he brings to a community.

The second is @Wasty , who also needs no introduction but whose praises I could sing well beyond the length of this point task. My first night in the SHL was a hectic one, to describe it lightly. The draft was literally two hours after I made my player (Emilia Bergman), and suddenly I was thrust on to an Anaheim Outlaws team that mercifully had some familiar faces. But I’d barely had time to complete the interested prospect and rookie point tasks before I was suddenly an actual player on an actual team with all of these things to do. I wanted to have a clear-cut image for my player, opting to make my render Zoe Hickel – even if I knew women’s hockey wasn’t extensively published unless your name is Hilary Knight. I asked my locker room for recommendations on a good sig maker, not knowing how sim leagues tend to work (i.e. paying for a signature).

The recs were more or less unanimous and effusive in favor of Wasty. But as a brand new member with relatively few connections in the league – and especially with ZERO to Wasty, he had no reason to do me any favors. Within literal minutes, he responded and asked for a team and a render/player. Within a few days he had everything done, and when he asked for payment (I’d just done a large media article, my first bit of SHL money), he said not to worry about it. His graphic now sits in my signature and played a role in getting me to stick around in the SHL. After all, if there were members like Wasty – someone who’s willing to produce absolute quality work without any expectation of payment for a brand-new SHL user, he’s an absolute winner in my book. I could not agree more with Wasty - both in terms of graphic quality and using his abilities for a purpose beyond earning money.

Best trash talker: WannabeFinn

Wannabefinn is obviously hands down the best trash talker on the SHL this was such a no brainer for first place. Every thread where you know dudes are poppin off in, you can bet your ass Finn is up in there droppin some heat that stings like a bee but with the grace of a butterfly. Gotta give big ups to the finnster on this one.

**First GM in SMJHL history to win 3 Four Star Cups back-to-back-to-back**

Best-managed SHL team: Buffalo Stampede

I'm against this. I would feel like the team that has won 2 out of the last 3 Championships and have one of the deepest prospects pools in the league right now. They are still a young team and growing and getting better every season.

Blastmeaway · 06-11-2020, 09:38 PM

next league poll should have awards(?) for "Most Drama" and "Consistent Clown", i know thats a bit negative and highly unlikely now that i think more about it. thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Shout out to ml002, schultzy, slashacm, tedward!

Funniest User: .bojo

For!

Bojo is a riot whether on the site or in the locker room. That man has thrown down some of the funniest shit I have seen in ages in the BAP locker room.

Best trash talker: WannabeFinn

HAHAHAHAHHA, this is the dumbest thing i’ve ever seen. My farts are a better shit talked then WBF. If you think WBF is the best trash talker on SHL then you’re all bitches. Don’t get me wrong, love the guy and am forever #LeeIn but he’s so soft and loveable, he ain’t talking shit to nobody.

Best-managed SHL team: Buffalo Stampede
