BuzzerBeater Forums

1. I realise you can, but it would make things easier if you could just see their last sign in date on their page. It tells you if they are online now, so if they aren't online now, show the date there.

2. Its trivial, but most forums I know have them, just thought it'd be cool.

3. Same as 2.

4. I know it refreshes the page, but a lot of people might not recognise that as having been submitted. It would just make things more user friendly. Also having a note on there that says that the draft may be submitted multiple times would be good.

5. I like checking my ranking every couple of days to see whether I have improved or not, I don't know about you but I love seeing that my team has gone up 20 spots in my country etc. It's just at the moment I have to remember my previous ranking to know how many I went up. An arrow would make this easier.

6. There would be many users in many countries that aren't able to sell their players at the busiest times as they are at work, or are asleep. This would allow users in countries where the busiest time is while they are asleep, to list players earlier (while they are still awake) and still have the benefits of listing a player at a busy time.

7. I don't mean add these symbols to the match viewer in addition to the current ones. On the match viewer there is a 1st quarter tab, 2nd quarter etc that filters the symbols to specific quarters. There could be another tab that is Ball track. And this will just show the court, with and x for where the ball was at the previous event, and another x (perhaps flashing) that shows the current event. This allows you to imagine what is happening and where players are etc.

i dont know about these suggestions, buddy. all not very important (except the last one)...

the last is no small suggestions, its a match viewer revolution ;)
i like that idea. if you had two windows in match viewer, one with le latest 2 or 3 happenings and the one with attempted and made shots wolud be very good.

Yeah they aren't major suggestions :P I just thought that they are suggestions that can be easily implemented (probably) and make the game a little nicer. And then I thought of the last one lol.
I think it would take a lot of coding to do it, but I would love to be able to see the stats of all players (Assists, FT etc) and on this screen still show which players are on the court as well as being able to track the ball. The current system shows where you shoot from, which is all well and good, but it gives you no feel for what is actually happening. Almost every line in the match viewer is an event of some sort, but it would be awesome to be able to follow where it is happening. For example:
_____________________________________________
|.....................................................6............|
|..........................................5.......................|
|...................4..............................................|
|................................3.....................1...........|
|...................................................................|
|.............................................................2....|
|..................................................................|

Consider the above was the basketball court

1. Player 1 on Team 1 goes for a shot near the key.
2. Shot missed, Player 1 on Team 2 gets the rebound.
3. Player 1 on Team 2 gets a great pass off to Player 2 on Team 2.
4. Player 2 on Team 1 steals the ball from Player 2 on Team 2.
5. Player 2 on Team 1 gets off a great pass to Player 3 on Team 1.
6. Player 3 on Team 1goes up for a 3 pointer as Player 3 on Team 2 backs off a bit. Score!

The dots were just used to help align the court :)

sounds great. but i have no idea how to implement smth like that

Well I'd be happy with just being able to see where the ball is :)

y shpuld trhere be a prob with space n the screen??

Good suggestions. I like #6 a lot because there's obviously a mismatch between timezones and the big markets now. Could be a "list player in hh:mm" feature, where you'll be able to set a timer within the next 24h?
