As Brodie so perfectly kicked off his Opening Night post with (http://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/...ing-Night-A-New-Season-A-New-Look-Your-Career), "The future is now!" There are big big things happening in the league as you all saw from our big push for the beginning of the season. Season 20 looks to be the biggest and most exciting season yet and that's, in part, due to a rekindled focus on media. Tris10 has given me more tools and resources to work with and in turn, I can use those tools to spark the leagues with some content that we hope you all will enjoy. One of the new things for this season that we're trying out in the LGHL as a litmus test is Media Liaison positions for each league and sub-league. Those individuals will be working closely with me to help facilitate the media for each league. The general idea is that one person can't oversee all media on the entire website, so with the addition of these Liaisons, I'll be able to help assist with content where needed and use my real-life experience to help those new to the league and who want to do a write-up or show, but don't know how. All that being said, I'd like to introduce [MENTION=7667]Brisan66[/MENTION] as our NHL Media Liaison. Brisan has already gotten started with his own show, LGHL Access, which will soon find its home on the Official LG YouTube channel. Brisan has also reached out to some of you who did some pre-season write-ups and rankings, and I hope you'll join us for the entire season. It looks like we should have in place a Video show, a multitude of articles and a possible podcast on a regular and consistent basis, which should give all the players of the league a reason to check out our forums and media outlets. Please give him a warm welcome! But we're not done there, as we want to bring on board anyone who's willing to put in some extra work and effort for the betterment of the site. All I ask is that you follow the LG Etiquette and a simple Media Content and Guidelines sheet found here: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?res...60&authkey=!AMpZnukaqm2wEBE&ithint=file,.docx . All those things say are to use common sense and don't be dumb, but now it's on a document. If you think you fit the bill, please reach out to myself or Brisan. Why should I join the official media team? Well, I know in the past the "Rogue Media" was a huge hit and sort of a popular sub-culture, but there are benefits to working together with LeagueGaming, and this season it's more true than ever. First, you are fully protected from league and site bans for the content you create as an official media team member, pending you follow the documents I mentioned above. I got your back, and I want to see media shine on LG as we add on more leagues and more players to the site. But it goes beyond that. You also will get your media seen in four key places that I think are what will become the lifeblood of LG media. Sure, you get your created thread and that's great but you will also have your content posted and shared to: 1) The ARTICLES tab at the top of every page on LG. http://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/content.php - This is a curated list of every piece of media, news, and announcement that LeagueGaming makes and creates, sorted by Date and League (LGHL/AHL/CHL only as of now.) 2) Non-written content posted to the LG YouTube Official Channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/LeagueGamingcom - We've just eclipsed 500 subscribers and hope to keep that trend going into our transition to current-gen. Any video or audio show created by an official team member gets posted here. 3) The LG Podcast: Any content that can fit into an audio-only format will be posted to the LG Podcast. http://apple.co/18HyvUW You can subscribe to it via iTunes, any other mobile device or play it right on the website on the main forum page, right hand side. 4) Lastly, our social media feeds. Twitter https://twitter.com/_Leaguegaming_ & Facebook https://www.facebook.com/leaguegaming - Our first-ever Community Manager [MENTION=6415]Big Fifty[/MENTION] will be sharing your content you create on both of those channels as many times as possible. Those followings are growing very rapidly. So as you can see, you get exposure, recognition and credit for your hard work and effort. Non media team members just get a thread that will inevitably land on the 2nd page in a day. With us your content shows up in multiple places, all week long and usually into the following week. So if you're interested, please message myself and/or Brisan and we can help get you started. I thank you all for reading this and I look forward to an amazing season this spring! Good luck on the ice!
When is it going to be announced that [MENTION=6672]Heimbecker[/MENTION] is the official Vigilante of LG?
