I'm going to experiment this season, and make articles worth 50 points.
There has been a major shortage of articles, and I want to create a big incentive.
The one thing, these articles must be at least a page in length. No short articles will merit 50 points. Anything written before this will get the 50 points.
Obviously, if Spencer disapproves, this will be squashed, but if more articles are written on account of 50 points, I'm sure he'll be happy to oblige.

Im cool with this. Although I still think you need to give less points for articles that dont meat your specifications.

I'm going to...I wasn't really hard on articles, because I wanted GMs to write more. Now, if an article is short and doesn't meet expectations, I will give it less points. I just want to try this for the rest of the year, if the league doesn't respond, I'll move back to the other scale; just trying to generate even more activity.

This means post padding and 2 articles will give you 3 upgrades. Ill even consider going to 4 upgrades as a MAX if itll increase articles.

If I can get four upgrades, I'll definitely write four articles.

to clarify, a team will only be able to go up one more upgrade if they are within 20 points at the time of counting, not 50.
