2040 Preview Sign-ups

Post by RonCo » Tue Sep 24, 2019 7:36 am

With the preseason sim finished, it's that's time of year again. Let's get a good turnout. As always, new GMs are strongly encouraged to take a team because: 1) It's a good way to learn about the league. 2) It's a pretty easy chunk of PP.

UMEBA previews are also welcome.

We'll have division previews in the media guide as usual, but that doesn't mean you can't do your own.

You have until before sim 1 for full credit, and until sim 3 for any credit.

Team Preview (posted on time) 6 PP*
Team Preview (posted late) 4 PP*
Division Preview 8 PP
League Preview 12 PP

*not your own team

I can probably get one done if anyone wants to trade. I could use a pair of fresh eyes to help me figure out my mess.

Well, since you're doing Vancouver, this looks like a match made in heaven. I'll take San Fernando.

Actually recusing myself from the Madison preview. I'm going to do a feature on the Madison/Edmonton trade tonight that will cover a lot of Madison's team anyway.
:popcorn:

Can you switch me over to doing an Omaha preview, please? Thanks!

I'll try and return the favor and do San Antonio. Been a busy week and not sure if it'll slow down any. My oldest son qualified for the next round of his High School golf tournament today so we have another week of playing golf together. Oh whoa is me! haha

I believe that's called tit for tat. Or maybe in this case tit for tot.

San Antonio did mine. Wasn't sure I could to one due to the HOF piece for the Media Guide but I got that done today.

Since Montreal did SA and SA is doing Portland, we'll make it a round robin and I'll get one done for Montreal. It may have to wait until the weekend or maybe right after Opening Day though but I'll get one done.
