Hey,
Thanks!
You've got some great info there as well. I'd like to add it in with my stuff but the stupid character limit is making things difficult, but what I'll do is post a link so that when people click on it your post will open up.
Thanks,
Virus

Hey,
Yeah I understand what you mean, but I think it will be good to leave this thread open for a little while so that people, such as yourself, can post information and make comments/suggestions and then after a few weeks I can try and combine everything together and repost it as a new thread.

I made a reference and link to your post in my FAQ so hopefully more people will read it.
Thanks for the help :)

I like your idea and you enthusiasm. Some of the Q&A are good some are bad (the ones that are too long). The problem is - to get the new user to read the faq, it should be short and with links to the game manual. Why don't the new users read the game manual? because it is too long :(
So writing another game manual in one thread is not the best option. I suggest tighting it up a little.
I like the situational problem solving like: “None of my players popped up this week. Is this a bug?”, “I played at home in my cup match but I didn’t receive any ticket sales. Why?” etc.
Perhaps you could mend some of the topics into one. Example: instead of using "How much do I get for winning a match in the cup?" mend it with “I played at home in my cup match but I didn’t receive any ticket sales. Why?” and write the following: Cup games have no arena income instead only the winner will receive prize money depending on the current round. Extra info about cup and it's prizes can be found here http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/rules.aspx?nav=Tour...
I agree that we need answers to common questions like "How do I manage my teams game shape?" Perhaps just answering "keeping it between 50-70 minutes per player should keep your GS at decent level, there is also a random involved, for more information we suggest you read the training section of the game manual http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/rules.aspx?nav=Trai..."
This seems a bit more natural to me. Guys who want the quick answer will get the basic answer and guys who want to read more will read the game manual.

Just to note that i consider your try as one of the best posts that i ever seen in my BB history. Great, wonderful job. Some parts of it are already translated in Greek.

1 small observation off topic. You really need some logo/banner. :)
