If I was going to convert my hard earned TPE into some real, tangible asset, man it better be worth it. Off the top of my head there are some things that would be worth it.

Increasing grades via spending TPE: This is just gravy. I already spend time meant for working on the SHL, and this would allow me to write more for TPE, money, and do frequent updating. I mean, fuck, I have an essay due Friday. It'd be so easy to say "here, take 10 TPE and add that to my mark until it's respectable, I'll just regress out of Bravery." Then I could finally do all the trade trees/history dives I want, I could ignore exams, I could beef with people in an online forum. Everything I'd want to do would be right there for me...

Weight Loss: I don't know what the proper ratio on this is, but the amount of effort working out and maintaing a healthy diet is, relative to how easy pumping out predcitions and PT's is, I think it's an easy choice. Even for something like .1 lb for 1 TPE, I coud manage to drop about 13 lb's while still maintaining top 20 status for the S55 draft class. Just thinking about how much that would streamline my ability to maintain proper health and dedicate my time to places I care about is gravy.


The big one; putting TPE into attributes: I'm not going to lie, despite skating for all of my life I pretty much play like I have a 1 in all attributes but defensive awarness. Nothing against the SHL, but I'd much rather be a real life pro hockey player than a fake pro hockey player. If I could just slide some points into my personal attributes to turn myself into even a 4th liner at the NHL level I would be laughing to the bank. Instead of going to the gym with my teammates, I can sit in a dark room and write long paragraphs to get an extra TPE so I can find that next level at the NHL level. And then once my playing career is done I can get right back to having inflated TPE amounts now that I have nothing that I can't buy, and no life goals to achieve! I'd be the perfect player both on and off the ice! Let's face it, I could never resist the siren call that is the SHL forums. It was only two years after I flamed out that I can crawling back. I would probably even maintain a respectable career in the SHL while playing in the big leagues. I just can't escape.



All of those are just a tier below what I'd really want in life;
1 TPE = 1 mean bowl of spaghetti. I fucking love spaghetti so much. If I could trade TPE in for spaghetti I'd be so happy. I'd never have to do anything with life. Just eat spaghetti, don't spend money on anything cause I got spaghetti. I can eat spaghetti sauce on its own it's so damn good. That, and Iced Capps... shit maybe this is why I considered trading TPE in for weight loss in the first place...
