22) Your player has been paid to endorse a product/service. What is it? How do you endorse it?
Sam Squanch has struck up an endorsement deal with Great Divide Brewing Company out of Denver Colorado. A rugged, mysterious player from the Eastern Canadian woods seemed like the ideal spokesperson for their Yeti stout and it's many seasonal variants. The endorsement deal includes TV and print ads of interesting outdoor locations and the new tagline "You never know where you'll find a Yeti." Backing up the outdoor theming, 10% of the proceeds of each case of Yeti stout will be donated to US and Canadian National Parks to make sure that all the places you could find a Yeti stay clean and accessible to all. To wrap up the campaign, there will be a "Golden Label" contest. One lucky Yeti fan will get to hang out with Sam Squanch during the upcoming DSFL Draft weekend. The all expenses paid trip includes a 3 night stay, a ticket to the exclusive Great Divide Draft Afterparty and a bevy of autographed memorabilia from Sam Squanch. Also, since Sam doesn't really need money at the moment he has pledged to donate all of the endorsement money he receives to the Colorado Food Bank Network to help out those in need. No one should go hungry. (203 words)
7) This task is exclusive to non-recreate rookies of the S28 class and later. In 400 words or more, how has your experience been in the league? Who have you met that has made your time here more fun, friendly, and exciting? Have you been satisfied with your player’s early start? What was it like being drafted for the first time? Do you have any comments or suggestions for the entire league that you think should be implemented?
My experience with the league so far has been fantastic. The users are all very friendly and helpful. Even as a prospect I've already been invited to three locker-rooms, so that's a unique experience. Also, starting out with a rookie task that awards TPE and money is pretty unique, compared to the SHL which is the other sim league I am in. It makes it seem like a little easier to get up and going in this league. I haven't been drafted yet, so we'll have to wait and see how that goes, although I am excited for the draft. Teams have started talking to me and doing some scouting. I am happy with my players start so far. I got picked up on waivers by the Dallas Birddogs and they were able to put me on the field right away. I managed 5 tackles in my first game, and 6 tackles and a pass defense in my second game. Of course winning and Ultimini Championship before I've even been drafted is a hell of a way to start a career, although I will take very little credit for that. Obviously Dallas already had a strong team before I joined them. I'm assuming I got less playing time in the playoffs, which is understandable, since I only managed 3 tackles in the conference championship game and only 1 tackle in the Ultimini. I don't really have any suggestions for the league since everything seems pretty straight forward. Coming over from the SHL it's pretty easy to figure out, a lot of the PTs and TPE opportunities are very similar. The banking system is a little weird compared to SHL but it's not too bad. One thing I would saw is I noticed a lot of older information in the rookie guide and some broken links to things like the rulebook. That could certainly trip up someone who didn't have much experience on sim leagues before. I was able to find things by searching through the forums, but I remember being really confused and overwhelmed at first in the SHL, couldn't even find my own update page and things of that nature. I'm looking forward to getting drafted and "starting" out in the DSFL with my player. There's a lot of ISFL folks now in the SHL, so I see a lot of familiar faces in all the discord channels and so that certainly helps make it more fun. (408 words)
