The drama about the media
In just a season and a half there has been a lot of different drama about the media and articles. While things worked at first, soon different pay-outs were considered and offered by the league for various article lengths.
We have seen even more drama in season two though. First off, the league is producing massive amounts of media, causing the market to be saturated. Many pieces are laying there for weeks unread or ungraded. Many writers are not paid properly or not paid until weeks later. That caused two rule changes very early in season two that were to change the way media was graded and to deal with the massive backlog, but neither of them really changed much. The backlog is still around and lots of players are growing impatient and frustrated.
Once the backlog is fixed, the league can hope to finally put behind the drama of the media, but until then, it will be a stressful time for everyone involved. The league also hired more graders to deal with the backlog but there are still concerns out there.
Additionally, some have questioned the pay-out structure, with bonuses skewing the worth of articles, as well as statistical analysis maybe not being properly paid out in comparison with how much work needs to be done with it.
Media has been a wonderful thing and many great articles have been published. It just needs a proper solution and once the backlog is fixed, the drama will all go away.
