To whom it may concern,

Hello, i was wondering in terms of tf2 teams what it would take to be a part of community news. its just a question for research and financial purposes. it has always been a dream of mine to be a part of the community news, so i thought signing a tf2 team could be that core concept that gets me there.

is this actually the case though? i see things more about LANs and teams so i thought it would be a reasonable request. does the team have to be invite RGL division or can it be something like div-1 RGL to make the headlines?

Thanks for reading,
Metawatt.

News articles on tftv and on other sites in the past (vanillatf2 etc.) is all created from volunteers writing so generally if someone is going to write an article using their limited time they will write about the top-level content, whether that's news about some Prem or Invite team or news about an upcoming LAN as its the most significant to the widest audience.

If the content pipeline was busier whereby there are more newsposts being written more often then I would say there is room for information about lower divisions to be written too.

This isn't to say that someone cannot write about div 1 right now, it just might not be content that goes into a news post on TFTV for example.

I recommend if you do sign a team or something similar that you keep the Cre-8/CGA branding. It's the most iconic brand you have going for you and I think that it would garner the most favor. Even if people make fun sometimes, it would be pretty hard to root against Cre-8's Cretins (or something) in my opinion.

MetaBreakers is the team name I have. And we have merch and two affiliates, one of them being eXtine’s Yaooosauce.
I would do something CGA related, but it kinda has caused irl trauma to me due to other members of this community I shall not name.
