I was thinking of something similar to the "list of players currently online" in your country, but a list of NT candidates. Just the name, division, and a link to the team they manage.

Like I said, this is just a feature that would make browsing easier. The BB site is well built in that regard. You have links to everything, even the guy scoring 50 ppg in div. V who is leading the nation in scoring. Since the main info I need for NT voting is how well a team is doing and how experiencied the manager is, these links to their pages would make it easier.

Imagine, for instance, that in your cup draw, instead of having a link to your opponent's page you would just see the name of the manager. Of course, you could search is name in the search engine and look at his team, but it would be less practical ;)

You're right about the debate thread, candidates should come over and explain their goals and ideas, and the main ones do. Again, this is not an important feature, just something that would make browsing easier.

Well, right now there is a guy who just joined BB (he still has that "Franchise ____ created" message) running :P

I also like that suggestion. In the past I've also thought about that - especially once where I just couldn't search for a name because he had a couple of characters in his name that I didn't know how to produce on my keyboard. So I would have been glad if there had been a link to his team.

I didn't say that I'd vote for someone who doesn't even write a speech. But sometimes I'm just curious about those guys. And it just would be nice not to have to search for that person.

You're right, people who are interested and committed will (probably) reach out in the forums. In the Portuguese election, the two main guys did that, but 6 or 7 other guys ran in the election. If nothing else, you want to see how successful these guys are with their own teams.
