TPE Earning Revelation Part 2

[Eso 117]

This week I'm going to write a little bit more with regard to what I talked about two weeks ago in my last VHL.com article:

 

I am happy to report that in the last two weeks I have done graphics, podcasts, writing tasks, donated money, and couple of career tasks. I'm sure there will still be more things for me to learn and figure out, but I am now much more comfortable with my contribution to my team now that I am a max- (or close to it) earner. It's funny too, the more I learn how to do it, the less like "work" this stuff becomes. I joke on my PBE podcast that it started as a way to earn league money, but now that my account in the PBE is flush with plenty of money, I still do the podcast just for the enjoyment of it. Now I think that I am becoming the same way with VHL - I have stopped looking at my point tasks as a chore, and am now looking at them as an opportunity to engage with my teammates, the league, and also to practice some of my multimedia skills. Every time I do a graphic project I learn a little bit more about handling myself in the GIMP, and every time I record a podcast and add into/outro music and stuff like that, my audio workflow gets a little bit better.

 

I am lucky in that regard, that I am an outgoing guy who isn't afraid of criticism, so I don't mind writing stream of consciousness stuff like I am doing right now, or talking into a microphone by myself for 15 minutes.

 

In conclusion, and to get back to my initial point about gaining a better understanding of the TPE system in the VHL, I now have distilled it to the most important points. Each and every week, the following things that require effort need to be done:

 

• 6 point PT (graphic, article, podcast)
• Any 3 of the 2 point supplemental PTs (podcast, graphic, article, trivia, press conference, PBE affiliate PT)

 

If you can do those things, you're going to be successful. So armed with this knowledge, I am hopefully going to turn Steve Eso the player into a "diamond in the rough" for the Calgary Wranglers, and Steve Eso the user's next player is going to be a monster.
