Hello SHL and SMJHL,

After reviewing the SHL Media Survey between myself, SMJHL Media Head @Evok , and discussing at length with past and current Head Office members, the Media teams have decided to undergo a few updates to keep up with other departments increasing their payouts.

The updated base pay scale will be:
100 words = $140k.
1000 words = $1.4M
Quality bonuses (from x1.1 - x2) will then be applied on the new total.

This will also affect podcast payout
1 person - 4.2m/hr
2 person - 5.6m/hr (split into 2 = 2.8m each)
3 person - 7m/hr (split into 3 = 2.35m each)
4 person - 8.4m/hr (split into 4 = 2.1m each)

The change has already been reflected on the Rules Thread.

This change will take into effect starting on MONDAY MARCH 21ST 2021 to coincide with the start of Season 64.

As stated in the Thread Subject, this is but the first step for an updated, more active, more opportunistic media experience. We are currently still looking into smaller in-season events and will update you in the near future when we're satisfied with them. (A lot of making sure people aren't exploiting loopholes and making sure that it doesn't overlap with PTs too much, etc...). Feel Free to reach out to me (Zoone#2105) or Evok (Evok#5032) on Discord if you have any suggestions.

Looking forward to reading your feedback!
