Great new site. The only thing I am not wild about is the post rating option. I think that might turn ugly and/or hurt people's feelings unnecessarily.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Maybe I'm missing it, but it doesn't seem like there's a one-click way to get to the schedule in the new site. I have to say I use the schedule enough that I'd prefer to be able to get to it without loading through 2-3 pages.


you could activate the lon menu, after that you nearly have the "old" navigation bar.

I don't find Suggestions thread. Will it ever be possible to fix your match kits (in other colours than red-white as now is for every club)..?

I might be blind but I can't find "Conference information" or something that replaced this. I want it both to be able to see all results during the season and last login for teams. I certainly think that it would be a big drawback if it will no longer be possible to see last login for teams. I do think though that it is good that last logins for each user are not available (people don't need to see how frequent you are on BB).

About the schedule page I agree with previous comment that it is overloaded now.

Overall it looks like a step in the right direction. Another drawback is that the design is and was filled of way too many pics. Would be nice if pictures were possible to not show as I have no interest whatsoever about the face of the players ...

You can find the conference information by clicking "League X" from the menu on the left, and then you can select Conference Overview from the Drop Down list.

for some reason i couldnt chat during my last game' but that would be a teriffic feature

i really like the new site

thing i would like to see also are:

- game shape in the lineup setting page
- just like we can see the order of the national team acording to ranking, i wish i could see it for my own country... just for fun
- in the last site i could see in the leage page if any new comment are in the forum, i kinda miss it now


things i like:

- the table in the lineup setting page
- the "manage my team" feature, really sums up the most needed information
- the forums looks

You are so gonna sell more supporter with the new forum setup ;D I love to see logos of the teams behind the managers. Having country and league also adds to the experience.

Is the signature text only, or can I add a sleek graphic there? (If so, what size?)

Was not too easy to figure out. Then I am fully happy.

Another thing I would like is the number of played national team matches listed in each players profile.

Also I hope that the ranking list for each country will be possible to see as it is pretty frustrating to know your ranking without knowing who is ahead and behind without going through all leagues ...

Team rank is a calculated based on team performance in official competitions (league, tournament, B3). I am not quite sure how exactly it's constructed, though.

I think tournament performance has a pretty big weight and the "window" is probably about one season in length. My team is ranked 1st in Suomi (I won the three previous Cups, have decent success in the top league, and went to quarter finals in the Cup this season), which sort of makes sense to me. The team ranked 2nd in Suomi is the other Cup finalist from last season. They are currently fifth (tied for fourth) in their conference in the top league and like me reached the quarter finals in the Cup this season. They promoted from division II for this season. The team that has won the league title for the past three seasons is 4th, while the current regular season leader is 14th. Teams still unbeatable in the Cup are 3rd, 5th, 6th (division II), and 18th (division II). The three teams with the higher ranks all went to top 16 last season while the fourth team had a top-512 finish.

I agree with that one. Tournament performance highly influences the country rank. I'm currently leading my conference in the D1, but got eliminated in round 3 of the cup. My country rank 16, the losing finalist in our cup this year is ranked 7th but is playing in D2.

Not a big one, but currently there is no logout button on forums pages.
