2045 Preview Sign-ups!

[RonCo]

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 ...

Whoops my bad. Didn't realize it was tradition and, admittedly, not as good as your previous work now that I've gone back and looked at it.

I’ll revitalize my divisional heat check preview from last year and take a stab at the ever-changing Heartland.

Well why not. Guess I'll take Charlotte.

[StormZ_23]

I have to take Portland for my first preview

[FuzzyRawley]

I'll take Chicago to pay Vic back for all his correct takes on Des Moines. I promise to keep the snark.

Sorry to be dense but do these go in the media guide or these are in addition to the media guide previews?

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 ...

Uh oh.

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...)

I'll take a shot at Hawaii

[CTBrewCrew]

Ill take San Antonio

[tylertoo]

I will preview the Edmonton Jackrabbits.

[RichY]
