2047 Preview Sign Ups
It's never to early to throw this one up.
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 can sign up for any team you want, regardless of if you're in BBA, UMEBA or just lurking.
For the new guys, these previews are not associated with the Media Guide. Instead, they get posted directly into the Forum (in this thread).
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

Re: 2047 Preview Sign Ups
A personal note:
I know it's easy to slack and not do one of these (I've missed a few years lately), but everyone loves a preview. These posts are some of the most viewed and responded to features that are written every season.
Pick a team you hate! Pick a team you love! Pick a team you know nothing about, or you know everything about (as long as it's not your own).
Post to trade previews! Lots of people do this every season.
Most importantly, have fun.

Re: 2047 Preview Sign Ups
A Talons Feature in the media guide would be popular.
Lord knows I won't be writing one!

Re: 2047 Preview Sign Ups
Discord is easier, IMHO.
Two seasons ago, when I was still in UMEBA, I did a preview of Edmonton and they went on to win it all. Any concerns if I do Edmonton again?

Re: 2047 Preview Sign Ups
I’m starting from a place of total ignorance about BBA personnel, so I guess it’s time to start fixing that. I’ll start at the top of the alphabet with Atlantic City and go from there. If I have a chance to do more I will...

Re: 2047 Preview Sign Ups
I'll do a preview on Mumbai, since they are the reigning UMEBA champs and the team to beat in my division.
