And it's not just articles in which you gain reward.
I'll post our current rules regarding Participation Points here (which are very basic at this time), with a revision forthcoming Wednesday that will incorporate franchise moves and stadium creation into the program.
An owner may be relieved of his team if four sims go by without any communication to the league. You are also expected to post (at the minimum) at least one team update on the forum per week. A point system is available as a bonus for owner involvement (see below for details). Having and using AOL Instant Messenger is STRONGLY encouraged.
Owners are expected to submit Team Exports for every sim, or send the Commissioner an email indicating there will be no changes. As a courtesy, owners are requested to respond to emails from other owners (i.e. trade requests, etc.) in a timely fashion. Owners are given an opportunity to participate in most league-wide rule changes and participation in these polls is in the owner's best interest.
Owner IncentivesIn order to reward owner participation, a bonus system is available. Owners can accumulate points based on criteria described below. These points can be redeemed for the improvement of an owner's franchise (see below). Points will carry over from season to season.
Owner Action Point Value
Write News Article About Team 2
Write News Article About League 4
News and Team Articles may be submitted only once per sim. Other points may be awarded at Commissioner's discretion. All awarded points are to be posted publicly on the web site. Points may be redeemed at any point during the regular season or off-season, but not during the playoffs.Points may be redeemed for the following:
Reward Points Necessary

Therefore, the more stars you earn, the more merchandising revenue you will earn for the upcoming off-season.25 posts- 2 stars = No additional revenue75 posts- 3 stars = No additional revenue125 posts- 4 stars = $500,000 additional merchandising revenue175 posts- 5 stars = $1,000,000 additional merchandising revenue300 posts- 6 stars = $1,500,000 additional merchandising revenue500 posts- 7 stars = $2,000,000 additional merchandising revenuePlus everyone likes to see a lot of stars by their name. Governing Board members are not eligible for this promotion.
