2045 Preview Sign-ups!
Hey, it's that's time of year again. We'll have division previews in the media guide as usual, but that doesn't mean you can't do your own!
Let's get a good turnout. As always, new GMs (both BBA and UMEBA) 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.
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

Since my annual preview of Des Moines is off the table, The Black Sox will send a crack team of scouts to assess Yellow Springs. Or at least a hung-over intern ...

Re: 2045 Preview Sign-ups!
I'll take Chicago to pay Vic back for all his correct takes on Des Moines. I promise to keep the snark.

Re: 2045 Preview Sign-ups!
Sorry to be dense but do these go in the media guide or these are in addition to the media guide previews?

Re: 2045 Preview Sign-ups!
These are in addition. Look down in the preview forum here, and you'll find examples. They range from serious analysis to insane rants about Cthulhu ...

Re: 2045 Preview Sign-ups!
As vic mentioned these are varied, but tend to get a little more in depth than media guide (mainly because you are writing 1 instead of 16...)
