2042 Preview Sign-ups

Post by RonCo » Wed Mar 25, 2020 10:53 am

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 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.


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

Is it the same style as the media Guide? 3 paragraphs and a prediction?

Everyone does it a little differently, but these tend to be more in depth (position by position) since it's just one team for 6 points. Browse some old ones in the forum to see how it's been done.

Between the media guide, my magna carta Alicea feature and actual real work, I'm damn near burned out so I'll unfortunately not be able to support this go around...at least before the season starts for full credit.

Brett - be sure to point out that Portland is evil incarnate. Doesn't have to be your lead, but work it in up high ...
