1. 2 TPE - Milestones

2. Do you like the new format? Why or why not?

I do like the new format. I know it's basically the same amount of work split up into two, but it doesn't feel like it. Before, champ week felt like a huge mental block I really had to sit down and be ready to work on, to do 16 TPE worth of work all at once cause I know I wouldn't want to come back to it later to finish it up. Now it seems like there's a lot more to do in bite size chunks, which means I can just come into it and knock off a bit whenever I feel like I have nothing else going on. It's a lot easier to do 8 TPE worth of tasks at a time than 16. Now if only we could make milestones a bit easier to reach for forwards, I could type even less. Instead you just get this last bit where I'm totally not padding for 150 words. (163 words, 3 TPE)

3. What would you do to spice up the new All-star format even further?

If you wanted to spice up the all star game even more, you've got to give it some weight, like baseball. I don't know how much I want the all star game to matter when it comes to the regular season, but allowing the all star game to do something like shape conference structures or something could be interesting. I mean, given the current format we have, we could do some base conferences on tournament results, so no one would really know who they're going against often in the regular season until the conclusion of the all star game. Would it be hell on the file makers and potentially simmers? Definitely. Would it foster season long rivalries? Probably not. Would it lead to increased engagement from the users and increased excitement for the all star game? Also probably not. So uhh...maybe we don't do that. But it's a cool idea to think about at least!
