S86 Trade Deadline & Theme Week

[Beketov 9,103]

Hello @Members!

 

If you’ve been keeping your eyes on the events page you’ll know that it’s time for theme week!
 
Of course, that also means that the Trade Deadline is Monday, December 12th at 3pm EST. This also means that anyone wishing to re-create for the S88 draft can do so starting at midnight that same day.

Most of you aren’t here for that though are you? You just want that sweet sweet theme week TPE. So, for this season, we've decided on a theme of:

Spoiler

First Gens

 

That means of course anything related to a first gen. Maybe you want to profile one, maybe you want to offer suggestions for how to make things easier on them, maybe you are one and want to talk about your experience so far. It’s all up to you, just make sure that you’re not doing anything for someone too experienced and you’re good to go!

 

To earn your Theme Week TPE, write an article, create a graphic, or record a podcast with some connection to “First Gens”.

In order to claim the theme week bonus of 6 Uncapped TPE, simply submit your Themed PT (Graphic, Media Spot, or 6-TPE Podcast), and claim it as normal. After claiming the PT portion, you can use the same link, and claim the uncapped portion as follows: Claim Uncapped > Other > Doubles Week. (Note: you do not need to post your link in this thread to claim either portion of TPE). 
 
Make sure to tag your articles with “theme week” so we can collect all the great work in one easy-to-find spot.
If you have already submitted a Point Task for this week, or are in the midst of claiming a multi-week Media Spot/Podcast, you may still submit a Theme Week PT this week, and claim the capped portion on the next available week, following your multi-week claim.
 
Also, if you have a single job that pays 6+, you may claim the theme week bonus as long as you complete your duties for the week. If you are in the EFL or SBA and have completed their most recent Media Week, you may use that to claim the Uncapped theme week bonus, but a PT must be completed this week in order to claim the Capped portion, whether that is completed here or through Affiliate Welfare.
 
Note: Only players who are S87 or older may claim the theme week bonus.

Theoretically you could talk/write about your b experience as a first gen :)))

That's what I've been thinking, @Phil. It's a good opportunity to shit on Discord, after all.

Always Sun-Mon when our “week” rolls over.

 

The only kinda caveat is that it’s a manual process to flip the starting season over and it’s, well, the middle of the night. So if you’re the first Guinea pig you sometimes end up needing to be reset a bit. Chances are I’ll be up like an hour after the flip is supposed to happen though so I can do it.
