S90 Trade Deadline & Theme Week

[Beketov 9,103]

Hello @Members!

 

Surprise! Yes we forgot to put it in events, shut up, It's theme week! The best time of year to complain about how unoriginal the blues are while receiving extra pay for it.
 
Of course, that also means that the Trade Deadline is Monday, September 18th at 3pm EST. This also means that anyone wishing to re-create for the S92 draft can do so starting at midnight that same day.

Trade deadlines don’t offer TPE though do they? No, what you’re really here for is theme week isn’t it? Well let’s get on with that then, the theme for S90 is:

Spoiler

Snubbed

 

Yes I can write that word (this is gonna be fun haha) and yes I stole the idea from @Berocka so credit where it’s due. Write / podcast / graphic your way to some sweet sweet free TPE with content about a player you feel was snubbed; be that the HoF or a particular award (Thompson S66 Kanou anyone?) or however else you interpret that.

 

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

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). 
 
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 S91 or older may claim the theme week bonus.

Does it have to be a player or can we discuss how one particular GM in his first year (Season 88) in the VHL takes underdog London United to the Championships and wins it all but is ignored for the GM of the year award.

So long as it relates to both the VHL and the general term "FISTED ANALLY BY A CIRCUS MONKEY" it counts! I find the best Theme Week PTs are the ones that really bend the Theme to something unexpected!

League related and fits the theme so yes for sure!

1. Sure that counts.

2. Playoffs have never counted for the Knight so the championship has no weight on them.

Usually only has an impact if they were already in the discussion for the Knight, and if playoff success would give them an advantage over the other candidate(s) that they were alongside.

Even then it’s officially not supposed to but there’s obviously some voting bias that can’t be completely ignored.

Don’t tell me to shut up ever again 

[Berocka 2,263]

I’m feeling benevolent today, you can have 1 free uncapped on top of the regular doubles week.
